VN Ren'Py Love and Ashes [v15Oct2024] [EngelKuchKuch]

I have to indefinitely postpone development....

And then...

I’ll be releasing one final update soon as a thank-you

Not sure how that translates to the coming update being the end of the game. If the next update were to complete this game, there wouldn't be anything to postpone, since the game would be finished. Rather, to me it sounds like "final update" is for the time being only. The state of the game will then probably either become abandoned or (at some point down the road) continued when the developer is able to again. I don't think you should plan on the game being completed with the next update. With all of the branching and everything, I highly doubt this will be wrapped up in a single release.

about the last update, 14 February 2024. It's mislabeled, ofc, being posted on Feb 13 of this year, so it should say the release would be the 14 February 2025 one. Anyway, it looks like Love and Ashes will be postponed indefinitely... so unless something really goes the dev's way, it sounds like this probably won't continue anymore. My post before yours was about this thing. I don't think the update completes the game; I think it just is the last update... possibly ever.

She is Amara — a kind and beautiful 21-year-old with a deep love for fashion. With an eye for style and a playful sense of creativity, she enjoys mixing and matching outfits to craft looks that are uniquely her own. Confident yet humble, Amara sees fashion not just as clothing, but as a way to express her personality and mood, blending modern trends with her own artistic flair. The nude pics of her are for members.​

Character: Ms. Agatha

7 hours ago

In one of my stories, there's a character named Ms. Agatha, the head of the dorm. She’s the type who rarely smiles, always firm and unwavering when it comes to rules. Her presence alone is enough to straighten a resident's posture. But behind that stern exterior lies a kind and caring heart, quietly guiding those in her care.

I thought it was the full version, I'll wait

I thought it was the full version, I'll wait

The only thing you're going to get is the 14Feb2025 version, after which the game has been put indefinitely on hold. Since the dev seems to be working on another VN, I'd assume this one is abandoned. It remains to be see if they'll get back to Love and Ashes in the future. This isn't a judgment of EngelKuchKuch, but generally when this type of thing happens, a dev never gets back to the project they abandoned. I'm somewhat surprised that the last (for now) version isn't over here, given it's now been almost 6 months since its release. Maybe we'll see it in just over a week; I don't know when / if there's a planned public version.

Announcement

Hello my dear patrons,

I’m in a bit of a difficult situation. Do you remember my short story Love under a Leaky Roof? Well… the same thing just happened to me—minus the love and the sex.

A heavy downpour destroyed my ceiling, and rainwater came pouring in. Pipes leaked, electric cables and lamps got cut off, and my PC (which is open-air, not in a case) got a very unwanted shower. The same goes for my monitors. I’m still trying to dry everything out, and I have no idea yet if they’ll ever turn on again.

Because of this disaster, my writing schedule will be delayed. I can’t say for how long right now—the misfortune struck just an hour ago as I write this announcement.

Thank you for understanding, and I’ll update you as soon as I can.

Hi everyone, About a month ago, my roof collapsed and heavy rain poured straight through the ceiling. It was a rough experience—my PC even got splashed, since the case was open and facing upward with only a cloth to cover it. Water still managed to drip inside. I was really worried because the power supply still send a bit of electricity to the motherboard’s RGB. Thankfully, today I can say my PC is back up and running! My house repairs are nearly finished—though it may still take about a week or so before everything is truly complete. In the meantime, I plan to release a short story that I managed to write during this hectic period in a week. After that, I’ll continue working on Devilish Locust. Stay tuned!​

Ofc, sadly the work will still be on Devilish Locust instead of this game. But I am looking forward to seeing what the new game's like.
