Good to see the weekly updates continuing, hopefully we'll get another today.

I'm not asking for a release date cause I've learned my lesson in that regard, but the anticipation is definitely starting to build.

The...I swore it was sunday all day update

So yes, technically this is late, but I honestly thought it was sunday ALL damn day. Seems mixed on those who want to see the writing experiment and those who don't. I am uploading a Mac and Droid version, but I want to reiterate, this is not for everybody, and it won't affect development on MLC. As for the MLC update, I will be doing a public post with the latest public version split into chunks this week, and good news will be coming soon.
The pic...well it's the dream endgame isn't it.

Sure, if by "endgame" you mean "I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this happened next week". :ROFLMAO:

.33. Putting a pin in that though, development has run a little long so I am not doing the 10 day announcement thing.

As a side note, I mentioned a little writing experiment I did a while ago. Should be in a public post on my SS. It's a dark universe type thing, so don't expect the fun loving banter. Was practicing writing some darker content like non consent, just to get me out of my comfort zone as a writer. Not going to affect MLC development, but the few people who played it to give me feedback said I should release it. Very patreon unfriendly, so it will only be on SS. Those of you who try it and are into a darker style game would love some feedback.

Not sure if SS lets you see public posts without an account so I also made a twitter for patrons.

Basically just using it for MLC dark, but another way to get ahold of me if needed.

Maybe I'd like the dark version better if they were new characters. But the super goofy and likeable mc suddenly being a rapist and abuser put me off it.
I don't mind darker aspects in these games. It's just that we've seen the mc in a certain way so far, and this felt more awkward because of that.

Legit thought they meant there was a "darkmode" for the ui or something. My poor innocent soul...

It is not to bad though it could be better if it actually came first because as it is a lot of players will have a hard time believing the lovable goof mc could be this dark twisted guy. The one thing i don't really like is how the wife comes across as a total bitch yet in the normal version we get the choice for that or a more mellow wife

Wouldn't the dark alternate deserve its own thread?
In all respect, it is a different game. Sure, it has the same characters, but, it's non canon and what not.

If the dark one is planned to actually get completed as well, it really should be on its own, let alone for the update notifications/game versions, but not to mention the content that will be discussed in here now, that might be a serious bother for many people. We'll be talking about rapes and what not, while the original game, is a lot more lighthearted than that.

> Dark Story

After everything that happens with Jennifer in the game and how much I appreciated being able to beat the everloving shit out of the POS who hurt her, I think I'll give this Dark Story a pass lol

Same here
Just taking a look at the extracted images and not playing the game, made me pass on it.
I'd never want to see the MC behave like that, not after playing the game for soo many years

I haven't starting playing yet but I might jump in at this point :D I love the idea of playing the NTR version first and then playing the more upbeat main game
