great pic! would you share your render settings? the image is really good even though the environment seems to have low light (night)
Thank you!
This is such an environment + a couple of ghost lights and a night HDR outside the window. If you have more specific questions, you can ask them to me in PM.

It’s still a bit too early to give a release date for the next update, but I’m actively working on it. Right now I’m in the planning and writing stage, so once I move on to rendering, I’ll definitely be sharing some Nicole previews. Thanks for your patience and support!

The last release was less than a month ago, why are you pestering him already? Let him work. Development takes time.

It was a simple question. To date he has not had a normal release delivery cycle due to problems. So... I asked. I think it will he will settle into a 2 month cycle...

I am not sure that is the best approach for a new game. EXPOSURE is the best form of advertisement here. Everyone like to communicate with a Dev once in awhile. Share thoughts on the game and stuff. That is what get them to subscribe.
Buddy, you keep bringing up the same point, but I still don’t quite understand what your idea of 'advertising' actually is. If someone enters the forum, clicks on my game, and scrolls through over a hundred pages to reach this point, it already means they know about the game. Advertising is meant to inform people who don’t know about it, not those who are already here.

Most of the discussion here revolves around people sharing their thoughts (positive or negative) about the story, and naturally, conversations build from that. I also can’t respond to every single idea or request people bring up. What am I supposed to say? 'No, this won’t happen, so stop talking about it'? Or 'Yes, it will, so there's no need to discuss it further'? That’s not how open discussion works.

As for communication, I regularly reply to DMs on both the forum and Patreon. Many people reach out directly with questions or feedback, and I always do my best to respond.

You could put up some polls on here where we would vote what we want to see happen in the next update and your patrons votes would count as 2 while your f95 votes would only count as 1

It could be a good idea, but right now I don’t really see a reason to go that route. Plus, it would probably make things more complicated while I’m writing the story. I’d rather keep the process focused and consistent for now.

Have you looked into promo sharing with other devs at all? You do basically do an ad for their game to your Patrons and they do one for your game to their Patrons.

Other than that, sharing previews/teasers and regular progress updates (even if not giving numbers or dates) can organically generate discussion, and the more active a thread here is, the more visible it is as it appears on the front page more often, etc., helping to bring in those new viewers to try out the game. You can always check out progress reports/dev logs from other devs to get an idea of how these look and what they include/exclude.

Also, have you checked out ? It's a free-to-download ezine and you can submit images, promos, or even an article or review for the game to potentially help reach a new audience.

Why did you work on the female characters, and except for MC's friend and Nicole's black colleague, all the other male characters are a copy of MC, only with different skin (the guy who fucked the mother and the guy from speed dating)?

Polls ruin games. Devs should make what they want to and not be dictated by that sort of thing.

Listening to fans, sure, but polls for content will only ever end with games being convoluted or getting too messy.

Understood, By advertising I mean ANYTHING you put out here for the masses to read and or comment to. Be it comments from a follower or a direct message from you. I and other understand that yu are VERY busy... I am sure this is part time for you. DM is a one on one so other don't see the question or the answer. Maybe that would be great for all your followers... maybe not. You are the Dev. Yes, we get into some pretty wild discussions to what may happen that makes the page kinda fun. usually we are not correct ... but it is fun as long as it stays civil. Make no mistake I like you game.. I talk it up on other pages when people ask for recommendations. That is why I subscribed..

I'm not a fan of them really, but "outfit polls" are probably the best option there, IMO - they don't change the story and can literally help the dev decide if they are unsure between two or three different outfits. I think polls like "which character should get content next" or something like that are signs that the dev doesn't have good control of where their story is going.
