Hey all. It’s ya boy, JD, here with a monthly ramble.
So, as you know I’ve been hard at work on Chapter 8 so here’s a quick run down of everything that has been going on with that.
Firstly, I finished posing the damn thing a week or two ago, so here’s your final render count for that chapter... 1737.
I’ve spent the past few weeks on a mad post-working rampage. It’s the first big post-working session since I bought the graphics tablet and let me tell you, it’s helping a huge deal. I’m two thirds of the way through all the post-work already and I haven’t even got any wrist pain this time! Only brain pain from how mind numbingly boring and repetitive it is.
So, I put a pause on that to recover and took some time out to do some other things to prepare Chapter 8 as a Season 1 Finale and push towards that Steam release. As mentioned in the last update, I was going to be doing some minor rewriting. I have now done all this (I think), so the next time you play, you’re going to hear a lot of talk about the New Riverford Academy, “college”, Dean Brown, Professor Ross etc. I’ve even updated the latter two profiles to reflect their new job roles.
Another thing I’ve figured out and implemented, as I said last time, with some help from TakoYuh, dev of Westview Academy, is the system to export your Season 1 save, and import them into Season 2… and it seems to work!
However, one thing that Tako has warned me of is that a requirement for Steam is the ability to play a game without a reliance on having a save from a different game. So, I have also made a “Storybuilder” that can also be used at the start of Season 2 to help build your save if you don’t have a save to import, or if you’re an absolute monster and want to start from Season 2 for some insane reason.
The Storybuilder, naturally, is where Fraser comes in and “throws all subtlety out of the window with this fourth wall shit”. He’ll have a little intro and offer players two different options.
Option 1 is a quick save builder which is a no frills, series of basic bitch black screen menus that cover all the main decisions and love interests in Season 1 and then he’ll work some magic with the lesser variables and boom, create a save for you to start with. This option is more for the players who played Season 1, don’t have an exported save file and want to jump straight into the next chapter as quick as they can.
Option 2 is very fun. It serves as a full recap of the events of season 1, complete with 200 renders and a full narration by Fraser himself. Of course it being Fraser, it will be chock full of meta commentary and drenched in jealousy over how ridiculous and awesome MC’s life suddenly became. Along the way, he will ask you all the relevant questions about your kinks and Season 1’s decisions and adapt his recap accordingly. Of course, he will berate you for turning down any LI.
The full storybuilder takes a good 20-30 mins to complete and honestly might be worth a play even if you have a save to import, just so you can see recap yourself and see Fraser’s commentary on things.
Now, that I’ve done that, it’s time to return and complete the last third of the post-working… and then it'll be time to get all audio down, the lewd writing, fill up the special render galleries, all that kind of stuff.
The bad news is that I’m so busy wrapping up Chapter 8/Season 1, that I haven’t started to pose Chapter 9 yet… but that will come soon.
In other news, I will be taking part in another big itch.io bundle in a few weeks, much like the Valentine’s Day one. So, if you want to build up your naughty games library, look out for an announcement from me when it goes live. Naturally, there will be a reward tier where bonus renders are unlocked, and I have already made my contributions (thirteen of them to be exact)… and some of them are… chef’s kiss.

Before I finish, I will quickly address the image that I have attached with this update. Firstly, if you missed the last update, or the special of Lucia and her gals that I released last weekend, then yes… Lucia has had a makeover.
Where Chapter 6 had some differences depending on which path you have decided to take Lucia down, they were relatively minor. It was just a spicier photo shoot for manipulation and the same for Chapter 7, with all the extra interactions with Sapphire. Chapter 8 will be the first time we get separate content depending on which path you’re on, not just alternate versions of the same scene, or extra content within that scene. As I alluded to last time, the manipulation path requires you to be fucking Emerald… otherwise, no Lucia content for you next chapter. The normal path will have both stuff that requires Emerald as an LI, and stuff you’ll see even if she’s not.
Anyways, I figured I’d treat you to a preview of each path’s content. Manipulation this time… normal path next update.
Ok, time to bounce. Thanks for sticking around and showing me your support! You guys are awesome.
