If this all leads to the MC reuniting with Chelsea then, I'm happy with it. Playing this over from the beginning I get people should never jump into things to early, and if you're not 100% committed to a relationship then you should exit immediately to avoid wasting your time as well as your partners. I still feel bad for her and how things ended though and wouldn't mind seeing a true happy ending between them both. But first, this dick isn't gonna sling itself. We've got some serious whoring to do, so let's run up these body counts.

Well, this is exactly why I do multiple playthroughs for the different paths in a game like this. I play through each update once, then I mostly Ctrl-skip through the other girls' paths for the latest content, except for where there are line changes or unique scenes. I have "Unseen Text" not marked in Preferences so anything new on a different path will stop the skipping and let me see the changes. Hell, I even have a Crystal-only "path" . . . not that it will go anywhere, since she's clearly just a side girl. But at least any scenes with her (if there ever will be any more) will get seen on that playthrough.

Hey guys!

This time I'm a kinda hesitant about this kind of post... It's obvious by now that I'm not the fastest dev in the wild west, but this month it's even worse. My VN development was and still is a "hobby", which means I can only spend my free time on working on it. I absolutely love what I do and if I could, I would spend much more time doing it, but I simply cannot afford to do so.

The thing is that the current world events affected my day job, big time. I didn't lose my job, but on the contrary -- now I have a shit ton of work to do comparing to what it was before. It's not as bad as it was in the beginning of March, but not by much. I don't know when the load will reduce to what it used to be, but at least the trend is somewhat positive.

And obviously it affected the development. Unfortunately, I had much less time to work on Off the Record in March. Still, the progress was made.

Currently I have ~150 renders and in a day or two I'll start working on animations. All planned events for episode 5 apart from the ending are interdependent and tied together, so I've been writing basically the whole episode, not only the upcoming update. And since I haven't decided which part of it will be the end of v0.4.2 I'm not sure if I can say the writing is done or not. In any case, let's say it's mostly done.

That's all I have for you for now. Thank you friends for your support and patience! And stay safe.

Thanks for the update, it's a bummer hearing this but at least he's being upfront and honest.

Hey guys!

Yet again, I've overestimated my capabilities and fucked up the planned schedule. I'm sorry for that.

Well, at least I'm still releasing the update in June, right?..

Anyway, I thank each and everyone who supported me and still does so!

This update focuses mostly on Eva's first order.

There is an option to completely avoid the whole sequence, but if that's what you plan to do, there wouldn't be much content left.

Enjoy!


v0.4.2 adds:
  • 420 static renders;
  • 23 animations;
  • 9 new music tracks.
Release dates:
  • $15 tier: June 30;
  • $10 tier: July 3;
  • $5 tier: July 5;
  • $1 tier: July 7;
  • Public: July 14.

Which Walkthrough Mod do you guys reccomend?
Prob. too late, but Zoey's for me. Sancho's mods do have a lot of features, but it can be too much sometimes. And I'm not sure if it allows seeing all scenes in one playthrough like Zoey's one. But if you don't like seeing all paths, Zoey's might not be for you.
