I feel like we haven't seen much of the other blonde devil yet, so I wanted too give her a render again! This time she is just sitting on a couch in what looks like very comfy attire. I wonder why she is shrugging like that. Maybe the MC said something she doesn't have an answer too?

Hope you guys like the render of the cute blonde!

Who is Amelie? I haven't seen anyone like that in this game.

Jesus Christ...It feels like it has only been a few days since I made that post in 2024. But six years ago today, on August 31st 2019, I posted the first playable version of My New Family on the internet.
So it's going to be this kind of post. The renders for this week will follow later and it's totally fine if you don't want to continue reading from here! Thank you for being a part of this community anyway!
Well...Six years...
I'm always happy to think back. But the last anniversary was already in a pretty dire mood - the wound that my stuff has been taken from me was still fresh, at least to me. Now we have the 2nd year in a row where I still don't have anything back. Neither my beloved assets, nor any of my hardware. Not even a freakin' laptop that didn't contain anything, since it was freshly formatted. Nothing...
But I don't want to sound too depressing in this post. With the release of the prequel earlier this year and the insane amount of support of you guys, I was able to stay on track. Still, I'm wondering how much would be different if I had my stuff back. I can see it with the numbers, that they are dwindling, that less and less people stay because the game they wanted to continue to play is currently not really progressing. And again, I totally understand that. If I was on the other end I would have probably done the same. Moral support yes, financially supporting someone that can't deliver what you are here for? Maybe not so much.
But it was never about the money to me personally. I love what I started with My New Family. The game that started it all for me. From being unemployed, at the brink of poverty, to someone that is able to do this work as their main source of income. My life became better, my life has a purpose again. This might sound a little too extreme but it's true. The reason why I'm still here and didn't give up after what happened to me almost two years ago is the person reading this post right now. You people are giving me the biggest positivity I ever had in my life. I can keep going because I know there are people out there who want to read and play what I create.
So these posts are mainly for you, the players and the community. The people that were there when I released the first alpha, only to a few on the very small Discord server back then, to the person who only discovered my games yesterday. Everyone of you, no matter where you come from, if you are a pirate who never wants to pay a dime for these games, to the people that decide to support me in multiple ways, even financially, you all are amazing. Like I said, I never started to make these games for the money. I wanted to do something with my time and never would I have thought it would be the center of everything for me now.
Six years is a long, long time. So I want to use this post to not only talk about the past, but also a possible future. It's something I hinted about a few times but before I tell and show you what I mean, I want to clarify something, and I think most of you won't be happy about that.
As some of you might remember, I got some amazing help regarding the recreation of the main cast of My New Memories. The thing is...Whatever I tried, no matter which angle I looked at them or how much effort I put into them to make them look more like their originals... They just aren't the originals. That's why I think that I'm not going to use them for Chapter 4, at least for now. I know this might be super disappointing to you people but I have a different suggestion, a different approach, I guess.
I know that the prequel is liked by a lot of you and I know that some don't care about it. But with the models I have so far, I was thinking about using them in the prequel eventually... And with those models I mean Anna and Lena. Those two would make sense to appear in the prequel at one point, and I think with the changes I made to the recreation, they would "fit" in there, since I made them look younger than their originals. I will give you a comparison for Anna below.
This is Anna how you remember her from My New Memories.

And this is the copy , using the recreated model Terminator made and then altered by me to fit my style a little more and I Made her younger, so she fits the university theme more...

The difference is huge, I know, especially in terms of skin color etc. But...Yeah. That is my plan. I really, really want to hear what you guys think about that, so don't hesitate to message me here, say something in the comments or talk to me on Discord!

Of course my main goal is still to get all my stuff back, especially my character assets. This is the single most important goal in my life right now, to do everything I can, no matter what it takes, to get these things back. Sadly, I'm at the mercy of the german law here, and the law is slow...Painfully slow, to be honest. Two years with no charges being pressed or a court hearing coming, getting nothing but silence from the state attorney, no matter what we do...It's frustrating. And we can't even sue them for anything yet, because the excuse right now can always be "We are heavily understaffed and there is a lot to do". I don't know how difficult it is to check an external SSD as a state attorney and say "Yes, these characters are fine and those assets are needed for work" or "No, they are not fine", so we can proceed to get a judge involved.

All in all...I'm happier than I was last year, I think. I'm still struggling a lot mentally, especially when I see the decline on every end, but it's definitely better than last year. I'm hoping and praying ( and I hope you keep me in your prayers too if you are religious ) that this situation will be solved this year eventually, so that I can get my beloved characters back. Because I think thats the main issue right now - That I love these characters so much that I can't replace them just like that. I just can't. And I'm really, really sorry for that, like I said above. This is totally only on me and I can fully understand if you're thinking "Stop being such an idiot and just use those models, we'll love them anyway!". But...I can't. And I have to live with that decision, at least for now. If it's 100% clear I'm not getting anything back then I will use them, that is a promise.

Okay, I think this post has been longer than I wanted it to be and I talked about a lot of things. If you stayed with me until here, Thank you. Thank you so so much for all the support, on this platform or on Discord or anywhere else. Like I said above, it's thanks to you guys I'm not giving up. Never.

Who is Amelie? I haven't seen anyone like that in this game.

That's because she's not in this game (yet?). She's from the prequel game, My New Memories: The Beginning.

 

[arkhamtheknight]

Should I play The Beginning first or play this to understand everything before going to the Beginning?

 

[TonyMurray]

Should I play The Beginning first or play this to understand everything before going to the Beginning?

I did The Beginning first because I like to do stuff chronologically like that. I don't really think it matters though, partly because they are written in a way that you can comfortably do either first (IMO), and partly because The Beginning isn't complete yet, so you'd be leaving some of the earlier stuff up in the air regardless (unless you only start this one after the prequal game is complete, which will take some time, I imagine).

I think the prequel enriches this one, but isn't a prerequisite, so it really comes down to personal preference.

If you play the main game first (so far it goes), there will be a lot of hints in the game the Beginning, that you‘ll recognize

Hello there you wonderful and super wholesome people!

Another month, another week, another progress update!

First I want to say thank you to the insane ammounts of comments and messages I got on the 6 year anniversary post. It truly means the world to me that you guys are so understanding regarding the situation and the fact that you seem to like the idea of putting "Younger" Anna and Lena in the prequel makes me even happier. So thank you for that!

Now, let's talk about the games!

I'm still working on the next Chapter 2 beta and I'm making decent progress. In todays render you see Rei who decided to have breakfast with the MC again - I "skipped" the week of university and now the MC can spend his weekend with his favorite girls again. The situation with Rei is a special one since the MC is kinda leaning towards telling her about Anna, but not the full detail. I guess this is going to be a fine line he has to walk in general. He can tell Rei that Anna is a childhood friend, but maybe he shouldn't say how close they are? And then comes the question why Anna is not contacting Rei more often. Or maybe they talk regularly and Rei doesn't seem to mind not sharing it - I mean, why should she, it's not like she has any idea that the MC, Sabrina and Lea know her. It's all pretty mysterious but one thing I can promise you is that the outcome will be positive. That is also the case for the big reveal that is about to happen at the end of this chapter - It won't be as big as the Rei thing, but you guys will probably still say "Whoa. Cool. And fuck you for stopping there." You know I love to do these things.

I also put a decent amount of effort into Chapter 4 and MNF2 again. I really want to release the first playable version for My New Family 2 this year and the good thing is, no matter what I'll use to make the renders, it won't take long compared to the renders I have to make for MNM. Still, I owe you guys previews etc and I promise I will deliver them. The same goes for some Chapter 4 stuff, but I already talked about all of that in the anniversary post. For now the plan is to use Anna and Lena with a lot of modifications for the prequel and the other characters that an awesome dev ( Terminator ) made will be put on hold at the moment. I don't have a definitive timeframe on how long I'll wait, just that using these characters for the main game will be my absolute last straw, if everything else fails. Like I said in the post, it's a very personal decision. Still, writing on Chapter 4 goes super smooth right now and the script will most likely be done this year, which only leaves rendering open to me.

And I feel like thats it for now, people. Thank you so so much again for all the comments on yesterdays post. You guys truly are amazing and I'm forever grateful to you people for keeping me floatin'. If anything new comes up I'll let you guys know, until then, stay awesome!

Yo. Opened this game on PornGamesHub and went to gallery. There's only 12 scenes. Do they have something wrong on their page or this four years old game have literally only a dozen of scenes? And I see nothing with daughters, they aren't fuckable after 4 years? I like games where story and building relationships is core, but damn, only 12 sounds too ridiculous.

It started 4 years ago but if you bother to read up what's been happening you'd understand why there haven't been as many updates as K7 would have wanted.

I'm not blaming anyone. I just asked, if there's really only 12 scenes and if there's something with daughters.

There haven't been a substantial update in 2 years due to unforeseen circumstances, quickly summarized/recapped here (I mean, there was a quick update/release earlier this year, but that only had some dialogue added, using only characters K7 was able to recover via someone else).

So far, without spoiling too much, there have been scenes with 5 LIs, if you also count dream sequences with MC's wife. 4 of them are pictured in the gallery in this thread's OP, and the 5th one (not pictured) only got as far as oral. None of them have been any of the daughters (real or adopted). And yes, that's 12 scenes total (I counted).

Wish all the best to dev, nobody should go through shit like this. Also, apologize for sarcasm in first post, thought that number of scenes is mostly about slow pacing mentioned in first post.

Ngl, I was looking for a game that's family oriented with main focus on daughters. I'll add this title to notepad and will wait a lil bit.

Thank you for your answer

You could also try K7s first game (but this is focused on sisters, mom, aunt, friends) for shorten the waiting time:

I also highly recommend My New Family, as it's one of my top five favorites on F95.

I really like the dress she is wearing, it fits her so well too. What do you guys think? She looks so pretty! And that smile, she looks very happy to see the MC dressed like that.

A more natural render where the dress is missing is available for supporters, by the way!

Hope you guys like this cute render of Jackie, though!

Hello there you wonderful and extremely cute people!

Another week, another progress update!

I'm still working away on the next update for Chapter 2 of the prequel and I feel like I'm making decent progress. Since you people were super supportive in regards of the younger Anna I made, things will become much much easier for me to write when it comes to her getting mentioned in the prequel. Of course I don't want it to be all about her, but since she always was such an important person in the life of the MC, it's good to keep her in mind. The same goes for Lea though, which is in todays progress update post! I feel like I didn't give her as much time as she deserves in Chapter 2 yet, so I'll make up for it with a very very long event that will end up with something lewd! I'm pretty happy that you guys seem to have liked Lea right from the beginning, but I feel like her being a ginger with blue eyes helped a lot with that. She shares a special connection with the MC and Sabrina, as you remember when you played Chapter 1, and after everything they experienced together recently she is even closer to both of them. Still, there are some insecurities she will try to figure out with the help of the MC. This event will be wholesome, funny and as I mentioned above, lewd!

While I was working away on Chapter 2 I was also working a lot more on My New Family 2. I probably underestimated how many of you amazing people are waiting for it to happen, I thought that most of you would say "Okay, MNF is done, MNF2 might be interesting but I don't care that much about it.", which was a false assumption from me. Especially all the people that love Lucy have been very vocal about wanting to see her and the tennant she has with the MC again ( I love those comments by the way, it shows me how attached you guys are to the little cat ). Writing is always the toughest part in the beginning so I'm happy that this is progressing nicely - I'm still not 100% decided on the engine I'll use, and I repeat what I said a few times, I'll give you guys examples and then you can decide. I'm happy with either choice in the end, since I'll probably end up enjoying in both - Honey Select 1 ( keep the christmas special in mind in terms of what MNF2 could look like ) and Honey Select 2 ( check out games like Eternum to see what HS2 looks like ).

I also worked some more on Chapter 4 but I have to admit, given the fact that the raid and seize of my equipment happened almost exactly 2 years ago gave me a little hit in terms of motivation. I'm about to send another letter to my lawyer so he can put some more pressure on the apparently under staffed State Attorney(s) of my city, in the hopes that the unrightful accusations of the investigating police officer will not fruit in her being allowed to keep all of my stuff - Like I said a few times, my game assets should have zero relevancy for what I'm being accused of.

And I feel like thats it for now, people! If anything new comes up I'll let you guys know like usual, until then, stay awesome!

I do not fully understand the concept of these progress updates. In the thread about the game I like, I mainly receive information about other games. Games I don't play. I think it would be much better to separate this information between the right threads. Because I'm still waiting for progress in THIS game.

If you wait for MNM progress, it could be you have to wait a bit (only a bitsy, I hope) longer. Because the German police have a hold on that, not the dev.
And this threat would be deserted.
