The next release should be at the end of November. I'm hesitant to provide a real date because I'd rather release it when it's done than cut content (or spin my wheels). Releases will be monthly from here on out.

Terribly sorry about not making my question more understandable, and many thanks for your attention to quality and detail. There have been other developers who will rush updates, that ruin the game. Thank you.

Just a few thoughts that happen to swirl around in my head, loosely thrown around (because after staying up all night, i have literally nothing better to do) :

- Considering how 'young' this game is, there's quiet the solid fundament. There's stuff to be added (stats, obviously), but that's exactly it. Stuff needs to be 'added' - not 'redone'.
- I love the hint-system and the argumentations, pardon, truthsaying. Fresh idea right there.
- Lil' Belle is great. I dig the writing and humor (not just hers, but in general). Just hope Belle doesn't go too overboard in coming versions, - nothing against breaking the 4th wall and using modern lingo a bit, but if it becomes too excessive, it can become annoying, forced and/or immersion-breaking rather quickly.
- 'Bigger Belle' btw. seems to be cool too. I like that you don't shy away from defending your decisions, that you explain them and, oh wow, that you even explain your gaming-philosophy in full wordy detail! No sarcasm here. Being wordy may come across as being long-winded at times, but personally i'd take that over the brain-dead gibberish of certain other devs any day every day. So, yay you!
- Concerning the locked choices and rollback, i'll pass on 'picking sides' as I savescum anyway (actually i don't 'scum' so much, as i simply save every little step, even normal reading progress. I don't even know why, it's just a hobbit, eh, habit at this point).
- I agree that some kind of "... and that's it for the current version, please come back later" would be nice, or some other, subtle indicator that shows the completion-rate. Exploration is cool, but at this point honestly a bit moot, content-wise. Take Evelyn for example. Okay, found her secret, hook line and sinker. Kissy kiss kiss. At night, look, pull, turn. Got it. And i guess - that's it, right? I'm not sure. She feels less fleshed out than the other two - the discrepancy seems so big, i got the feeling i'm missing something, but to be 100% sure i'd need to just 'wait her out' forever. So, yeah.
- Adding to the point before, i'm sure there will be much more to come, but i'll say it anyway just to be thorough: All the (important) characters should have a simple talk-to-option at any time, just to feel more fleshed out and 'real'. It always bothers me when i read something like "talk to my daughter/wife/lover? No, i talked with her already today!" in other games - and not even being able to simply talk to Evelyn later on feels even stranger. 'Nah, if i don't let her do something lewd there's literally no reason to interact with that meatsack, ever.'
- Also to add: A little indicator that shows the current time/day/date.
- I sooo hope we get to interact with Aldred some more. With a few options please. Humiliate him for thinking so poorly of us in the beginning! Impress him so deeply, that he openly admits that he was wrong about us and we are totally the son to him he always wished he had. Or, you know, just really piss him off some more since his expression captures the 'i'm so done with you and it hasn't even been five minutes..'-feeling so beautifully. It's magnificent!
- The crone .. not exactly one of my kinks, but since i love the writing and humor (and trust that you could pull it off well), i hope there will be some 'content' with her in her old form - just something to make people uncomfortable, just for shits and giggles. Nude sunbathing. Nude bathing in blood to 'keep her youthful look'. Finding some sexy lingerie in her hut - which Belle uses to conjure a 'sexy' mental image in our head while we speak with the crone. Something like that. ^^"

Aaand that's it, for now. Keep up the great work, Belle!

@Belle I think you run yourself into a corner with this update. I mean seriously... look at Primrose then look at her father. You see the problem? What kind of magic you'll come up with to explain that?

Thank you. I know that I can ramble on sometimes when it comes to things that interest me, which is why I ended up turning that into a Patreon tier. $10 patrons get to read my thoughts and ideas in great detail, while I get to air my thoughts and get them out of my system. It's a win-win situation. :)

Take Evelyn for example. Okay, found her secret, hook line and sinker. Kissy kiss kiss. At night, look, pull, turn. Got it. And i guess - that's it, right? I'm not sure. She feels less fleshed out than the other two - the discrepancy seems so big, i got the feeling i'm missing something, but to be 100% sure i'd need to just 'wait her out' forever. So, yeah.
Evelyn was the first of the three initial girls to get some detail added to her, but as a proof of concept and without an entire update dedicated to her, she is lighter on content right now. This will be rectified in the near future. I'll see if I can figure out a smart way to notify the player that there's no more content for the girl they're interacting with, but as said earlier, it can get tricky.

- Adding to the point before, i'm sure there will be much more to come, but i'll say it anyway just to be thorough: All the (important) characters should have a simple talk-to-option at any time, just to feel more fleshed out and 'real'. It always bothers me when i read something like "talk to my daughter/wife/lover?

'Nah, if i don't let her do something lewd there's literally no reason to interact with that meatsack, ever.'
This is what the "spend time with" choice does. If you have specific topics related to a character, they'll show up separately. I remove the "spend time" choice after you use it the first time since there's no more content for it, but I might just put it back and add a message about the content being over. I'm a little hesitant about doing that kind of thing since I got some negative feedback about people running into "coming in a later version" types of messages before 0.2.

- Also to add: A little indicator that shows the current time/day/date.
On the list of additions for 0.3.

- I sooo hope we get to interact with Aldred some more. With a few options please. Humiliate him for thinking so poorly of us in the beginning! Impress him so deeply, that he openly admits that he was wrong about us and we are totally the son to him he always wished he had. Or, you know, just really piss him off some more since his expression captures the 'i'm so done with you and it hasn't even been five minutes..'-feeling so beautifully. It's magnificent!
Aldred is on the list of people you will interact with, but he's a low priority for now. I don't expect to give him much more attention until 0.5 or so, but we'll see.

- The crone .. not exactly one of my kinks, but since i love the writing and humor (and trust that you could pull it off well), i hope there will be some 'content' with her in her old form - just something to make people uncomfortable, just for shits and giggles.

Hey, I'm trying to make porn here, not mentally scar my players. I've already done enough harm by having her in the game in the first place, but there is a significant payoff for it. You'll just have to trust me on this.

@Belle I think you run yourself into a corner with this update. I mean seriously... look at Primrose then look at her father. You see the problem? What kind of magic you'll come up with to explain that?
The magic of people having been younger and more attractive at some point in their past. :p

im curious to see where you will go with the story. looking forward to it.

I do have a recommendation for future updates... give us a hint when we are at the end of the available content, will you?

And I'm looking forward to moving the story forward. We've been kind of at a standstill since 0.1 since I've been focusing on the individual girls, but with 0.3 I finally have the opportunity to push us into the unknown again. There will be some progress in the main plot in this update. I can say that with certainty since I've already written the scenes where this will happen. It won't be a lot, but it will be something.

With all the seeds of the greater storyline that I'll be providing over the next few months, it will be entertaining to see if someone manages to guess what's actually going on with the Princess. The story is complex enough that figuring it all out early on is pretty much impossible, but parts of it will certainly be decipherable. I love writing mysteries, and this is a situation where I have to write a mystery that will hold up under scrutiny all the way until we reach the end of the line without fizzling out or making itself too obvious.

I don't think any of us actually care about the princess, as long as 3 main girls (Primrose, Callie, and Evelyn) are still fine. Also, free tits!

I recently found this site, and didn't know adult games was a thing I would enjoy as much as I do, and I've played around 30 different games so far, and I have to say, this is the one that's drawn me in the most and I'm most interested in. I don't know what it is, but it's my type of game. Can't wait for further updates, and I'll be keeping a very close eye on this one (and who knows, I might make a pledge in the future if I can afford it)

This is the one of few games that shine in their early alpha stage. I really hope you will receive well deserved patreon support. Even at this stage I can tell that this game easily makes into my top10 favorite adult games. Story quality is second to none, renders are pleasant. Well done, Belle!

Those aren't actually "main girls." They are just the initial ones, the ones that were the most practical for me to introduce right away. Once I start to add more girls (which should happen with 0.4), these three aren't going to get any special treatment. If my Patreon reaches its listed goals, there will actually be quite a few girls available before we're done.

Agility training is not in the game yet. It relies on the presence of a girl that hasn't been introduced yet. I'm trying to get us to her as fast as possible, but it won't happen in 0.3. I hope to provide a different (temporary) way to increase agility in the meantime though.

I don't know if anyone at this particular site actually cares about this, but version 0.15 is now out for everyone. It feels good to finally let everyone move away from the first, somewhat lacking, release.
