Hello there you super wholesome and amazing people!
Another week, another progress update.
This one is going to be a bit shorter, I think. Tomorrow is going to be a very bad day for me, I think I explained it a little already and will talk more about it in a seperate post tomorrow. To keep it short, the police wants to take fingerprints of me as a preemptive measure so I "Don't commit crimes anymore" and they can use that data to compare it to other, unsolved crimes. It's a pretty huge thing for me personally because it took them almost a year to get this shit done, instead of doing it when they took my equipment. Like I said, I will most likely make a more personal post tomorrow to talk about my experience these last few weeks ever since I got the letter. I just want to get it over with.
Well, let's talk about the games
Thank you guys for the great feedback on the Rei lewd render I made on the weekend. I think it's time to show off all the prequel girls in a way like this, so be ready for fulllewds of Jackie and Amelie coming up next!
Since the thing I mentioned above was constantly on my mind I sadly didn't get as much done as I wanted for the prequel. I was rendering and writing like usual, I just wasn't able to keep up the pace I usually do. I finished the event with Lea, for example, and decided that they not only go to the cinema on their date but also eat something in a restaurant. This is where Rei will tell the MC a few things about her life in Japan that sound very similar to another woman he knows from that area. The MC still won't be able to connect all the dots, but it makes him even more interested in getting to know Rei on a romantic level. It's going to be the first time on a date for both of them but it won't be as awkward as I initially thought. They will always find something to talk about and I feel like this event in general will make the MC more comfortable and self confident, basically how we know him in the main game. Todays render is Rei in said restaurant
I didn't do much for Chapter 4 and the main game, sadly. I decided to give the MC and Sophie a few moments together at home between events, where Sophie is gonna mention her initial reaction again when the MC arrived home and how different she feels now about everything that has happened. You remember that she didn't join in the group hug they all had with the MC once he came home, something she now regrets a little, especially with Anna being awake. No one is being mad at her for this, of course, and her reasoning makes a lot of sense. It's just the alone time Pumpkin needed with the MC, especially since the house is usually really full. Will be more on the emotional side again and I feel like Sophie aka Pumpkin will finally start to be her cheerful bubbly self again.
And I think that's it for now. Sorry that it's not as long as they usually are. Keep your fingers crossed for me regarding tomorrow, I never experienced something like this before and even though I now know it won't take long ( maybe 10 minutes ), I still find it horrible that I'm getting treated like some kind of hardcore criminal. I will keep you guys posted, like usual ( My lawyer will be there tomorrow as well, I think , maybe he has news for me ). Until then, stay awesome, like usual. And thank you so much for being this amazing community that supports me through this. I will have more about this to talk about tomorrow.

Hello there you super cute and very attractive people!
Another week, another progress update!
I know I promised you guys a post last week after I had my very unpleasant visit at the police station. But I wasn't really feeling comfortable sharing it in that week since that stuff was still super awkward and fresh on my mind. I plan to make a post this week though where I will talk about a few things that recently came to my mind. I hope that's okay
Let's talk about the games
I decided to add a bit more content to certaint events of the prequel. If you remember, I talked about the MC visiting a pool with Katharina, Lea, Sabrina and Bethany. I added some funny and lewd interaction between him and a certain big busted red head ( that is totally not in todays progress update render. ) The MC is not as confident as he is in the main game, so he will be a bit more shy when Katharina approaches him regarding certain things - At least when you decided to go for that route with her. She is what I'd call a "cougar", but only for the MC. She certainly knows what she needs and what she has to do to get it, and the MC is just the right one to learn from her every little detail about how to make a woman happy. It's something rather funny because her and Bethany are so close friends. Some of the things they do and talk about will explain why the MC and Anna did certain roleplay sessions that lead into the events you already know between him and Bethany. While the prequel started more as something to keep honing my daz3d skills and "to just work on something my new memories related" I feel like it will give me so many ways to explain certain things that happened in the main game that might not have made sense because of the MC's amnesia. And instead of giving you endless flashbacks in the main game that would take time away from talking to Anna or the other cute girls, you'll instead get a "new" game that lets you experience those things. I feel like that's... Good, right? Don't hesitate to tell me what you think in the comments!
I also worked on the main game, of course, but I can't really share too much about the event I was working on. After a certain thing that happened at the end of Chapter 3 with a woman that is a Mueller by name, things will start to heat up rapidly between the MC and her, all under Anna's waiting eyes. There are no secrets between the MC and Anna, as you know, and after the MC tells her what happened ( and it was apparently not the first time, who knows? ), she is very interested to see if the MC will take the next step on his own. You might remember that he was rather passive so far, mainly because he doesnt remember how far he went with certain persons. This will change a little now. While I still want to write things how I always did ( where the girl is usually the initiator ) I will amplify the MC "just going for it" after this has happened. Maybe Yukikos kiss is a good reference for what I mean. Remember that the MC was being a little more touchy when they visited the house that is for Karla and the twins? Something like that. I don't want things to be super slow but also not extremely fast. Just... At a better pace than they were in My New Family. I think once you play this day of Chapter 4 you will completely understand what I mean.
And I think that's it for now. Sorry again for the lack of update last week, but I'm recovering more and more from this rather traumatic experience. I appreciate you guys being so kind and understanding though, especially when you send me DMs asking how it went. If anything comes up this week ( besides the post I want to make ) I'll let you guys know. Stay awesome! Oh, and I have some news regarding MNF2 coming up soon as well!
How would those of us who haven't played this game before play it from the beginning? Or is the game intended just for those who have saves from previous version and to hell with the rest of us?
Maybe by downloading the first chapter available on the front page and starting a new game ?

Hello there you wonderful and very cute people!
Another week, another progress update!
Let's jump right into the games
I made some decent progress for this prequel chapter, but it's not really where I want it to be, to be honest. I really expected to be done by now, with rendering and writing, but theres always things coming up that stop me from doing either of those. My goal was to have a release ready this month, but it looks more and more unlikely I will be able to pull it off... And I feel really fucking bad about that. The last beta release for the prequel was in June and I hate being this slow with stuff like that. It's not who I am and especially not who I want to be, so I will promise to do better again. And I don't want to make any excuses like the police thing etc, while these things suck work was always something that helped me wind down and distract from these things. There is also the Steam demo I wanted to release and other stuff I wanted to do related to My New Memories, that I haven't done at all yet. So I promise to do better and be more like I used to be, especially in terms of release cycles and stuff. Like I said, I know my situation right now is not really good but work is the one thing that always helped with it.
I think I said that this prequel day is gonna explain a lot of things the MC experienced in the main game already, and with Katharina I have such a good character to do some of those. Todays render is her in the changing area of the pool and yes, this is the men changing area, so Katharina is doing something that totally is in character for her. This little scene only occurs if you decided to pursue her, of course, but I can highly recommend to "go for her". I think I already said last week that during this event, the MCs love for a sauna will start to happen, which will ultimately lead to the funny event you had in Chapter 3 with Lina. In the prequel you're going to be in the sauna with two other women though and of them will be a character that is also in the main game already ( which basically limits it to Sabrina and Bethany haha ). The whole afternoon in the pool will be more of a bonding experience with Lea as well, since they think back to other times they were there when they were younger. All in all a good event that will hopefully be fun for people that know the main game and for people that have zero clues about My New Memories.
Speaking about the main game, I didn't really do much for it sadly. I wanted to make a cute event in the evening with Anna but kinda lost motivation mid way, maybe because I pictured the renders I made with her and then realised I can't really do them yet. It's hard to explain how it feels to not have access to these characters for almost a year now, to something I created "with my own hands" and that brought so much joy to me and all of you amazing people. But I'm distracting again. Still, I will do my best to add some nice touches to this event, especially since Anna is my personal favorite character.
I also actually did some work on My New Family 2 already. I'm currently working on a new main menu design, I want it to be something unique and interesting like I did for My New Memories, while keeping the tradition that the background changes with each update. It's still kinda difficult for me to imagine how the characters will look in MNF2 and I think my plan for the first release is to slowly but surely show all the new girls that came into the household ( mainly to not overwhelm players ). So, think of your regular mornings with Lucy just... That it's not Lucy but someone that strangely enough, looks very similar to her. I don't want to bombard you with new names but all of the new household members will eventually be shown or talked about during the first release.
And I think that's it for now. On August 31st I will be celebrating the 5 year anniversary of My New Family and me starting out as a adult visual dev, which means another long personal post about the experiences I made last year. Most of them were bad, of course, but I will make this post more positive then negative. Thank you guys for your continous support and sorry again for the delay regarding the prequel. I'll do my best to make it up to you with a hopefully good release! Stay awesome!

Hello there you wonderful and extremely wholesome people!
Another week, another month, another progress update!
First, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart because of all the positive feedback you've given me on the five year anniversary post. It really warmed my heart reading all the comments and messages you guys sent me.
Okay, let's jump into the games.
The prequel is making very good progress and this time I can say with 100% confidence that the release of the next playable day is this month. I'm not sure on the public release, it depends on the animations, but the prequel turned out to be more slow paced than I anticipated. You get plenty of lewd scenes, especially in the sauna and stuff, but I think I will add one extra spicy scene. The thing with the prequel is that I can always work on it, even when I get my assets back, because it's an ever evolving story that can help explain a lot of things in the main game. And I can also end the prequel pretty quickly if I have to, because I just have to have Anna back to make a proper "ending". So I see this as a win win situation...For now. Still, I'm doing my best to deliver you a meaningful and engaging story so you can get even more excited for Chapter 4 - Or the next prequel chapter even. Todays render is Jackie at MC's home, where she has a rather funny talk with him about his physique ( she wants him to work out. I wonder if that is the reason the MC is so buffed in the main game ).
I also worked a little bit on Chapter 4 again. When I talked about Yukiko and Lina I wanted to give them both a super cute and wholesome event with the MC. Think of the shopping trip you had with Yukiko and Sophie, just that this one is going to be a bit funnier, especially between those two. If you decided to be a little more romantic with both of them a small "fight" might embrace, since the MC kissed Yukiko but Lina had the wholesome time in the sauna. I think this is going to be a very very funny event, something I love to write when those two are involved. Especially Yukiko holds such a special place in my heart, her character is exactly what I need right now. So that is something you can look forward to in Chapter 4!
And I think for now that's it. Sorry that there is not more to talk about right now, especially regarding the prequel, but I will make sure to prepare something nice in the next few days. I Really want to release a demo on Steam and for everyone else to play, so I'm going to do that as soon as possible. This will contain the first "day" of the prequel and maybe a little more. I want to give you the chance to meet all characters and then have a little lewd scene as well. Stay tuned for this, it will be super important to me to get your feedback regarding this!

First, MNF2 isn't going to be a "season" version of the first game (I don't think), where you can continue play from your last save of the previous game, it's going to be a second game set in the "canon" future of the first game (slightly more than 18 years to be precise).
Second, while K7 is working on it a bit, it's been derailed by the same issues that derailed MNM, and from what he's said, there won't be a release until he gets his stuff back and can finish MNM ch 4. In the mean time, he's working on a MNM prequel game.

I don't think he did mention it. Based on MNF, there will probably be a lot... as long as he can get all his stuff back from the corrupted cops.

No, but he was alternating between the games before the incident, putting out 3-1/2-ish updates per year between the two, so if he goes back to that MNF2 might have its first release within 4-5 months after MNM ch4 comes out. Best guess I can give you at this point.
BTW, in case you don't remember, MNF was something like 23+Epilogue updates, with nearly 20 chapters? Something like that. Any guessing on length of MNM can start there I suppose ... plus there's the prequel now, which will be however long K7 decides to make that.
thanks, yeah i replayed MNF recently but MNM chapters seemed alot longer, however K7 did say at the end of MNM update that the real game starts now so i hope there is alot of content because there is alot of untouched potential
any way as long as he is still active ill wait, although maybe ill wait a year or so before revisiting this i dont like playing an hour or two every few months

Hello there you wonderful and extremely cute people!
Another week, another progress update!
Let's jump into the games again because there is not really anything new regarding my case. Like I said in my anniversary post, no news doesn't mean bad news though, the only bad thing is that next wednesday, it's gonna be exactly one year since my stuff has been taken. Oh well.
I made some very good progress on the prequel again, I think I reached around 30% of the renders I need for that day, maybe a little more. I also prepared the "demo" version of the game, which was easier than I thought. I will post this demo to Steam and other sites probably, I'm not 100% sure where yet, but you will get the chance to download it from the Discord like usual anyway. This day is basically the first day of the prequel, just so you can meet all characters and see where it's going. If you remember the "alpha" version of My New Memories, this is basically what this is. I already got a lot of feedback from all the supporters, so having something playable out there will be even better. Please keep in mind that this is only a very, very VERY small portion of the first "chapter" of the prequel. It's gonna miss animations, for example, and really serves more as demo. It might take you 15-20 minutes to complete, depending on how fast you can read. Your decisions and stuff will NOT carry over to the main game, since the savegames will be different. Still, going back to what I was working on, todays render is Bethany who will join you for breakfast ( dont worry, I'll remake that render, it's not really good ) . You and her will have a very interesting talk about if the MC should get a mini job or not etc. As you might remember from the main game, money was never really a thing to worry about for the household, so this will get talked about a little. Just a wholesome talk between those two, while the MC enjoy some pancakes.
I also worked a lot on Chapter 4 again while I was rendering for the prequel. I couldn't help myself and had to make a funny little event with Anna, Olivia and the MC. They will enjoy some nice food together while the little princess talks about this and that. Sometimes, she will wonder why Anna keeps smiling and looking at her, so it will be super cute and wholesome as well. They will later get joined by Morgan and then they will kinda "kidnap" Anna to be with her alone, so the MC gets saved from loneliness by Sophie. I think I never really went into too much detail on these events before, but I feel like this one deserves it. Just an overall wholesome and super emotional experience with the three ( Anna is the 4th ) cuties. I really like that I can do these more lighthearted events now, that still show all the love everyone has for each other. Oh, and Sophie will drop a few comments that might make you believe she knows what happened in the Sauna...I wonder how that will go.
And I think that's it for now. Not a big progress update again, but I feel like it's good when they don't get too long anymore. If anything comes up I'll let you guys know. Thank you again for all the nice comments, especially on the recent lewd render I posted. Stay awesome!
Just started this game.... will the MC be able to confront the father at some point? (I like spoilers, so don't give me answers like "play and find out" xD)
