Hello there you wonderful and very attractive people out in the world!
Another week, Another month, Another year, Another progress update!
Well, I mostly want to write a small recap of 2023. I expected it will be longer, but since there is not that much left to tell regarding the bad stuff that happened at the end of 2023, I mostly want to talk about the good stuff that happened.
2023 was a very interesting and mostly amazing year for me. My New Memories finished it's first story arc and one of my most anticipated moments finally happened with Anna waking up. Ever since I released the first playable version of MNM this was the one moment I worked towards and I put all of my heart and hope into it, hoping that you guys would be as touched as I was when it finally happened. Now I can fully and truly work on My New Memories how I always wanted ( at least in terms of the story, rendering is a different thing at the moment, as you know ). I feel like My New Memories is on a good way and I can't wait to release Chapter 4. I'm still motivated like crazy, even through all the shit that has happened.
2023 Also had the final release and official "ending" for My New Family. After working on this game for over 4 years it was probably one of the most emotional moments of my life when I released the epilogue. Of course the work on My New Family is not done, but it truly marked the ending to the first game. I think I succeeded in creating a game from start to finish that I always wanted to play - wholesome, slice of life, no drama and lots of cute and lewd moments. Characters like Sandra, Lucy, Alice, Becca and the whole household in general truly mean more to me than I realized. I know it's just fictional work, but creating this game basically started a new life for me, helping me out of a deep hole that I was in for a long, long time. My games give me a reason to wake up every day and not just stay in bed, letting the bad feelings take over and fall back into the hole my games and you amazing people helped me out of.
If I remove the last 3 months of 2023 then I'd say this was one of the best years of my life. But you know what happened at the end of the year and since we don't have time travelling, it is sadly my current reality. I put all my hopes in this month that I at least get one of my crucial and essential ssds back, the only thing that really matters to me now. All the other hardware is replaceable but this one harddrive basically contains the stuff that keeps me alive, without it I..Don't want to know what will happen to me. The next 30 days will basically determine if there is a light at the end of the tunnel or if the current downwards spiral continues. I will stick to what I said last week and will not make a big announcement or fuzz about it. Let's just hope that the next 30 days and the start of 2024 in general will make things better.
I'm back to writing for My New Memories and my motivation is as high as it was before september 2023. I want to create new content, I want to continue the story. Sometimes, there are phases where I just start to look back and realize things I'd rather not see right now. For example, that this is the longest time between any game update I ever had. This is not how I want to see myself, even though this is out of my control, but it's what the mind does to you. I guess I just don't want to be seen as someone that is lazy or doesn't appreciate how lucky he is to do this job. And while I know that you amazing people most likely don't see me as a bad person, I myself start to see me as one. I constantly think back to what I could have done to prevent this - have online backups of all the assets. Have an external ssd outside of my living area... All the stuff that you only realize when it's too late. I know better now, of course, and I know what I will do once I have access to my files again, but that doesn't help me now. And I think the worst part is how utterly helpless I am because I have to rely on other people to do their job, that I can't accelerate things and that the people that are basically holding my life hostage are most likely not working as fast and effeciently as they could. To them this means nothing, to me these files mean everything. But I will not let this drag me down even further. My mind sometimes wanders to dark places, which is pretty normal, apparently. I'm currently in the process of seeking professional help regarding the trauma that occured during the raid, sometimes that I didn't even realize is happening to me. I thought I could get through this without it but I guess there is no harm in seeking help. That is at least something I can do.
But I don't want to end this on a negative note. If there is one thing that 2023, especially the end of it showed me is that I have the best community in the world. The incredible support you guys gave me after I broke the news to you throughout these last months is something I never experienced before. It feels like I have a second family in you guys, that always aims to make sure that I'm feeling... Good. That worries about my well being and wants to do their best to help. And there are no words in the world that can express how grateful I am for this. It's not only the work on my games that keeps me alive and afloat, it's mostly you guys telling me to keep going, to not lose hope and to look forward to better times. I think without you people, I'd be in the deepst hole of despair right now. Like I said, words can't express how grateful and happy I am to have you guys as my players, as my friends and as my family. Every comment, every message is a helping hand and I love you guys so much for this. Times will be better, I hope, and I know that it's getting tiring. Nonetheless, I will keep going, thanks to all of you amazing people.
Todays render is "Bethany" ( it should be Karla ) and you will have a longer talk with her on her first night back. There are a lot of things you and her never talked about before regarding the relationship she had to you and your sisters. If I had to compare Karlas personality to someone I'd say she is a lot like Becca. She never gave up on getting a true connection to Jessica and Sabrina, but she also never pressured too much. I think the realization will hit both of them that a lot of years were wasted with being bitter about something that Karla had nothing to do with. In the end, MCs parents divorced because they both wanted it, and the one person that can't be blamed for anything is Karla.
And I think that's it for now. If I receive any news this week I'll let you guys know asap, like I promised. Until then, stay awesome, and happy new year again! Let's hope it will start better than 2023 ended, alright?
I'm touched you think of your fans as friends and family. To be honest, I didn't want to assume that's what you think of us, but I'm glad you think so and am happy you find strength in your VN's and fanbase. Your games gave me a new perspective as well on how I view this stuff. So do what you gotta do to get everything back to normal. I can safely assume I speak for all of us that we got your back, whether as a friend or family. I'll stay awesome as long as you do the same. Happy New Year Killer7 and thank you for being you.You must be registered to see the links

It's quite normal that the shock from thing like being raided affects one state of mind, so it's good to hear that you are seeking professional help with dealing the trauma. Way too many people try to tough it out on their own, hopefully you'll find someone good that helps you. Also hoping for the best in you getting back the harddrives so you can continue creating this wonderful VN.You must be registered to see the links

Enough time have passed, we should write some kind of petition, so those mofos will return Killer's SSD'S. How much longer do i have to wait for new MNM.
Those "Mofos" are the judiciary system in Germany if I understood that correctly so from what I heard they work Slooooooooooooower than a turtle in some cases but I really really hope we get some good news that the Dev can get his stuff back asap.
Sadly cases like this tend to be low priority for them. And with resources being limited they put absolute minimum on cases like this.
It sucks for the people like Killer7, but it's the sad reality of things. Now i do hope they can finally finish the investigation of that SSD and can return it to Killer7 asap.
We need to plan a heist. We'll break into the German police station, steal back Killer's SSDs and replace them with the same model SSDs filled with terabytes of Rick Astley singing Never Gonna Give You Up.

Hello there you super wholesome and extremely sexy people!
Another week, another progress update!
I think the lewd Bethany render I posted on the weekend was one of the best I made so far, comperable to the Sabrina render from the week before ( that I posted in a similar pose on the weekend for everyone on twitter etc ). I feel like toying around with lighting can be a lot of fun and those two renders were very different from my usual ingame stuff. I think that is exactly what custom renders are there for, though, to be very different from the stuff you see ingame.
I didn't receive any news yet and I'm most likely going to write a new email to my attorney on wednesday, asking if anything returned. I think they are still catching up on stuff after the holidays, but to be honest, I have no idea how these people work. My suspicion is that they start to let work pile up ~2 weeks before Christmas and then work this pile off with the start of the new year. So who knows if my thing has been answered yet or not - I'll keep you guys posted and keep my head up to not let it get to me. It's getting more and more difficult though since I set my own deadline for this shit.
I was able to work quite a bit on My New Memories, though. I realized that while the main focus of Chapter 4 will be the family being fully reunited again, I also want to tell a few small backstories for the new characters. So todays render would be Caroline in the Cinema with the MC ( replace Sabrina with Caroline in your head, if you can ). Her and the MC used to do this a lot when he was visiting them and there is a very special reason for that - Something you will find out once you go there with her. It will be one of the few times the MC is not staying home again because I feel like that could end up being boring. I mean, imagine staying at home all day and doing whatever the hell, right? Yeah, that's a very weird thought...Anyway, Caroline is the more outgoing of the twins, so this will be a more laid back and fun event instead of emotional. Even though they are going to bring up certain things of the past, it will overall be a cute event. I also want to show the big difference ( no pun intended regarding her breast size, if you remember ) between her and her twin sister, since it's not that easy to tell them apart just by their looks. Once you get to know them better it will be very very easy though and I feel like Caroline will connect with a lot of you amazing people like Lina did. Think of her as Linas other older sister because they are much more alike than her and Sarah are ( which makes sense given the fact what Sarah had to experience ). So yeah, I'm super stoked to see you guys play this event, I really think that Chapter 4 is going to be the one I always wanted to make, especially in terms of wholesome and cute stuff.
And I think that's it for now. I will update you guys asap if I get some positive news from my lawyer and if its negative, you will hear about it in next weeks progress update. I have some more stuff to share soon that is not about the case, but rather something I got because I'm full of copium. Stay awesome, you amazing people!
