Yeah I remember locking on Olive in the prologue and still love her. I like pretty much everyone, Miranda climbed up the ranks, Rose and Elsa are still near the top for me, but all the girls are amazing in this game, its hard to choose.

I do hope we get a little more focus on Olive in episode 3, just so she gets a little more spotlight like other girls have in previous episodes.

I'd argue that Olive got quite a bit of focus in EP 2 for an LI that isn't the type to instantly go lewd. If anything, Selena, Danielle, and Sana need a focus in the next episode. Danielle due to her late introduction, Sana because we don't have a lot of info about her situation with Viktor, and Selena...I didn't even know she was an LI at first given how little we get.
Olive in comparison gets all the confidence lessons, her photography being needed at the party, and she even gets a wholesome chapter end sandwiched between two lewd ends if you don't want Taylor or Aurora.

Don't get me wrong, I'm down for more of any of them, but I don't feel that Olive is lacking in content yet.

Hello everyone,
Last week was pretty productive, with a lot happening during the development of this third episode.
First of all, thanks to the help of someone on Discord, I've been upgrading several character skins and transitioning them from G8 to G8.1. If you're unfamiliar with these terms, it basically means I've upgraded the characters to a newer generation of 3D models, which offers better skin quality and more assets, particularly for facial expressions, where G8.1 really shines. I'm very happy with this upgrade since it's something I probably wouldn't have done myself. The difference in skin quality is like night and day. I'd love to share some pictures, but I haven't rendered them yet as my queue is currently busy.
Speaking of the queue, I'll be building the third rig tomorrow or Wednesday, as the final component is set to arrive tomorrow. It's a bit late, about a month behind schedule, but at least I'll finally have that third rig ready to work!
I'm really looking forward to getting the new rig up and running, especially since I'm going to receive new animations from the animator I work with and created a couple myself.
On the topic of animations, I'm now working on the final scene of DAY 2 in the game, which also happens to be a lewd scene. That means even more animations are on the way. I'm particularly excited about this one because I feel my creativity and skills have improved, and I have some ideas that, if I can make work, will result in an incredible scene. I've planned 11 different animations for this scene, though the total might go up to 16 or 17 depending on how many angles I decide to render for each animation. (Yeah, I know, I'm a bum dev and I'm really milking the animations.)
Now, for some numbers:
  • 642 static story images
  • 26 animations
  • 14 scenes fully written
While this might seem like a slower week in terms of output, it certainly didn't feel that way. Almost every render I've created has been complex, requiring significant time to pose. In my opinion, they turned out great. Let's say I made 105 quality renders this week. I also completed two more animations and am now working on the final scene of DAY 2, so overall, it's been a solid week. All of this has been accomplished in just five weeks, which is very encouraging. I believe I'm making good progress.
Unfortunately, DAY 4 and DAY 5 each contain a massive scene, so I'll be stuck working on those for quite a while.
On another note, I'll be away for four days next week due to unforeseen events, so I'll only be able to work on the script during that time. It's not such a bad thing since the render queue is already getting quite large, and I could use a short break from 3D work. Stepping back for a few days always helps me return refreshed and more productive.
That's all for this update! Work is going well, and I'm confident it'll keep improving.
Back to work for me! In the meantime, I wish you all a fantastic week.

The whole situation with Caroline and the MC makes no sense to me tho.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
6 months late reply but first time playing this and the scene in Episode 1 with Caroline is absurd for all the reasons you've mentioned. Really hope the dev tweaks the dialogue this or allows for a future option to let the protagonist tell her to piss off. I laughed when she threatens the MC and then doesn't want the library to be open because 'I know how students can be'. This is the only reaction I had after that entire exchange:

so -selflessness means more badass guy and +selflessness wimp path? or the other way lol
In my understanding, sort of yeah. Selfless is "generally" more the nice/light/friendly path/approaches, with the inverse being the selfish. It's not 100%, and there are also 'neutral' girls as well.
