I'd just like to point out, that backing up to "the cloud" isn't fool proof, especially given the nature of the work getting uploaded. I've heard lots of stories of erotic novelists, and fan fiction writers, getting locked out of their Google Drive accounts for having "inappropriate" content on there. Which has lost them access to tons of uploaded work.
This is a sexually explicit visual novel, uploading anything relating to it's development could easily run into trouble with ever shifting rules of what content is allowed or not on any given cloud hosting service

Easiest way around that is to put the content in an encrypted archive.
Doesn't even have to have compression, as long as the archive is encrypted they can't see the contents so there's no issue.

Here's an easy solution to anyone's backup/storage challenges:

I use it on my media server, and have multiple folder mirrors on data I value highly. Doesn't require RAID, and works with offline (scheduled) parity tools like SnapRAID. Even works with drives of mismatched sizes. Quality stuff I recommend to anyone.

Hello there you wonderful and extremely cute people!
Another week, another month, another progress update!
Let's jump right into the games!
I made some decent Progress on the next prequel day which will probably lead to the first release of said prequel. I was figuring out how to do certain events and ease the newer characters to become more of the "core" members, like Amelie and Rei. Since the MC never met them before ( as far as he remembers ), it will be a very new experience for me to write "friends" like that. It was easier in My New Family because of the whole roomate scenario but for MNM, I can't rely on that, so it's going to be interesting to introduce these characters first as friends, then as good friends and then as love interests down the road. Especially Amelie is a tricky case, having a rough childhood with very bad experiences regarding men ( I feel like that is usually the case with some of these characters in my games and to be fair, it's always nice and emotional to write them like this ). After a certain event her and the MC immediately connect, though, and he is very interested to hear why she is studying music. Todays render shows Amelie at the MCs place, where she will meet Bethany for the first time as well ( In this case it was Sabrinas doing since she loves to introduce new friends to Bethany ). They will have a nice and long talk before the MC goes on his date with Rei - Where Amelie will try to give him some tips regarding that ( not that she has any experiences with dating either, it will be the first time for the MC as well ).
I also worked a lot on Chapter 4 again since the progress on the prequel was going a little slower. I managed to start to write a super cute event with Lena, where we will see a side of her that we never really saw before. Usually she is very tough and upfront, but this time the MC will bring her to a place that will spark a lot of emotions in her, leading to some rather deep and serious talks between them, especially regarding their future. With the MC having all his memories back, Lena will also not be an optional Love Interest anymore, but if you still don't want to spend much time with her because you don't enjoy her character that much, you will still have the the chance to do so. Just remember that the canon route is that they are a couple ( for Yukikos sake alone ). But yeah, this event will hopefully make Lena warm up to some of you amazing people that didn't like her that much yet. With Anna being awake and her pregnancy, things that seemed impossible are now not impossible anymore in the MCs eyes and he will do his best to show Lena what he means with that. That's all I can say for now, but I'm really looking forward to you amazing people playing this part of Chapter 4 and then telling me if I wrote it in a way that makes sense or if it will just be a little weird!
And I think that's it for now. I will update you guys as soon as possible, like usual, and a first playable demo for the prequel will also be out very soon ( probably this or next week ). It will be a shorter version of the first beta that was available for supporters, but it will give you an overview on all the characters etc! Until then, stay awesome, like usual!

Hi! I completed version 0.4 but still didn’t understand one thing. Why does Sarah keep the fact that she is MC's adopted daughter a secret? The text directly states that MC officially adopted her and Lina, and in fact this is not a secret to anyone. Only the real names of the sisters are a secret.

they kept it a secret, so if the father came looking he wouldn't find them. When the accident happened she believed if she wasn't feeling connected to them she could do her job better. plus it hurt her he didn't know who she was. She told him when they had a conversation at her house
Something doesn't add up. The biological father could not find them anyway, since the Diaz sisters were officially adopted by a family from Spain. MC adopted girls with other names unrelated to Mike. Mike only found out that Sarah was actually his daughter when he saw photos of the family on MC's phone.

When they setup the adoption it was just a precaution. Remember the MC and wife wanted to protect them from anymore trauma. Wouldn't want him to find the girls when he got out that's why the story was made up. He actually didn't find out who Sarah was till she was in front of him.
I'm not talking about the moral side. In the end, Sarah and Lina were raised with the same parental love as MC’s own daughters. I'm talking about the legal side. MC has 5 daughters and their names recorded in all government agencies. It can not be any other way. There is simply no point in hiding family ties! For example, when Sarah entered the police academy (she had to graduate in order to serve in the police), she had to indicate MC and Anna as parents or guardians.

Oh my bad misunderstood the question.When he talked to Sarah in her apartment she admitted she didn't know how they did it and was able to keep it all a secret. I assume it has something to do with Samantha she probably messed with the records.
