Hey, greetings! It's been a while since we chatted.
We had a lot on our plate, and we didn't want any distractions, so we've been heads down just getting the work done. For about 3 months straight, we've been creating scenes and rendering non-stop. During this time, we were aiming to build the Sandbox version and ideally, craft the entire game.
We wrapped up the Sandbox build just the other day. As you know, we're working on a fluid sandbox game without grind. However, this meant that our existing scenes were quite lacking. We revisited about half of the scenes, made additions, created entirely new sequences, and expanded the story in a way that allows for better storytelling. The end product looked amazing, but there was a serious issue.
Given that the game used to follow a classic VN style, sometimes telling the same day, the transition to a Sandbox genre made relationships and stories progress quite rapidly. We needed to insert new sequences and story additions, but since we added them later, they would never be as good as the original. So, without disrupting the characters' stories, we reworked the plotlines. We created thousands of new scenes and added a bunch of fun and sexy new events.
Yet, if you're making a sandbox, have a map, and aren't adding grind, you need to fill your map with content. We still have a lot of scenes to create for the Open world build. We want to release it as a full game because we genuinely worked on it for months without a break, so we want to avoid making mistakes.
While bringing the game to such a good point, we didn't overlook one of the most crucial aspects, the interface. We've started working with a fantastic interface designer and a talented artist for the map.
Once these additions are done, we'll need an extensive beta testing period, as it has become an entirely new, massive game. However, we also want to release new content to you without further delay. So, we're releasing the new update once again as a VN. In this update, we applied a rework to the Prologue and EP1, implementing a new writing style due to the complete change in the writing and scenario in the sandbox build.
This update focuses on Iris, Lauren, and Chloe. We're also adding some of the reworked scenes for the new build to the game.
-Prologue and EP1 scenario and IRIS story flow have been updated. Additions were made, and the writing was changed.
-Prologue Karen sequence was updated.
-All school scenes were updated.
-Jasmine was reworked. (In the Openworld build, she has her own route entirely.)
-Iris sequence was added.
-Lauren-Chloe sequence was added.
The testing period for the VN version will be quite short. Additionally, we'll release the Openworld build shortly after version 0.9. With the Open world build, we have something we want to do. We'll continue updating both the VN version and the Sandbox version. Since we can provide regular updates for the sandbox build each month, we'll be bringing significant updates to the VN version at regular intervals.
For now, that's about it.
In the first week of the new month, we'll kick off the beta testing process.
I want Charlotte too but won't say no to Lauren tho.wasent the last update all about laurent tho lol when is charlotte gonnat get some time, personaly am interesting in iris and charlotte tho.
The one I guess I can say that's great with Shawn's mod is Photo HuntAgreed. Sandboxes can be fun if they are made well with a lot of content, less grind, and a comprehensive guide but unfortunately, most sandboxes I played are lacklustre in all departments. VN are simple as porn games should be.
Yeah, Photo Hunt is goodThe one I guess I can say that's great with Shawn's mod is Photo Hunt

No, it will be like Anna Exciting Affection [Ch.2 Ep.14 Fix 1] [DeepSleep], it has 2 builds, one is just the standard "VN" the other is the run of the mill "Sandbox", but this game sounds like it's going to be more like Photo Hunt in open world type box.2 versions? Huh. Does that mean the vn version won't include any sandbox scenes. but the sandbox version will include vn scenes too?
Dude, all they have done is a reduction of the completed part. They were at the middle of the second part. Now they are at the end of the first part. They have done nothing in progressing the plot. Absolutely nothing. For half a year they did entertain themselves and currently they are talking about how huge work is done. Nevertheless the done work was bigger half a year ago. The more they work the less players get. BB has won in a competition with Icstor without doubt.A wall of text just to say the release at the end of January won’t happen.
Delayed. What a surprise
it's the reason why i stopped subbing a while agoOnly aim moody has is a disrespect to guys who pay him in patreon. They shouldn’t tolerate such an attitude. The February update will be the last one.
