status report 13.jpg


Over the past few weeks, I’ve been writing the additional scenes I wanted to include in Chapter 13, and I’ll be wrapping those up in the coming days. The artwork is currently with the colorist, and as soon as I receive it, I’ll edit and prepare the release of version 13.3.5, which will be available to €10+ patrons at launch, and to all €5+ patrons a few days later.

I’m also working on illustrations for the next chapter, running some art tests with new illustrators who might help with the linework, and outlining the script. On top of that, things are finally starting to move for Our Red String to be published on Steam,but that’s a slow process, and I’ll keep you updated as it develops.

Any bets on what the new scenes will be? A few clues: there's a "recycled" lewd scene, an entirely new one (that also alters a previous scene, replacing some art and text) and a long conversation that ended up being way more complex than I anticipated, and which progresses a new relationship even further.

Hmm Ian and Louise, having a post-sex talk if he chooses to stay the night, perhaps? Given there isn't many other new relationships for Ian i'd think of.

edit: or maybe it's Bad Jess who makes a re-appearance.

It could also be that Eva added something extra at the end of the chapter with Ian and Emma. It felt a bit lacking no scene with Emma if you are on the "feminine path" and no discussion of the "terms" of their relationship or sharing an appartment together giving Emma dire situation and Ian's troubles with Perry, specially as you get that conversation with Ian and Alison on their path.

Jess also feels like a likely option or maybe even Nat. For example recycled scene could be hot Emma in the restroom with Jess or Nat and new scene with Emma.

Eva was still able to extend the theme for the transition to STEAM, including, not everyone has the opportunity to make purchases on PATREON, however, in the steam version, the main thing is that everything fits and is like here. That's very good news.

Or maybe a talk between Ian x Holy x Lena if you are going that route, there was not a lot of conversation between 3 of them since agreeing on the relationship, so i hope Eva expand on that.

Hmm yes, the trinity is technically a new relationship too, so that is a possibility.

I'm wondering....as the story progresses and were given the option to get an apartment,will we be given more than one apartment option based on income and circumstance?
So far moving seems more of a necessity for Ian (if their's a decline in friendship with Perry) than Lena, their isn't much reason for Lena moving apart from getting additional privacy, unless she refused to having a friendship with either Stan or Louise and it creates conflict. Instead either Stan or Louise leaving made more sense after a decline in friendship, seeing as befriending one basically prevents really having a good relationship with the other and tbh I wouldn't be mad at the narrative if it resulted in Holly being the one moving in.
When it comes to moving in with another Ian may have the option of either Cindy or Cherry and for Lena either Axel or maybe Seymour but that's based on romance?

Well, I think the variables in the files for Ian and Lena's living arrangements have been in the game since the early days, so it was probably always a plan to explore this idea some time. I recall Eva initially commented that she intended there to be a time skip, but it's kinda hard to imagine that would fit into the story with the amount of chapters left, even if we reach the max estimate of 20.

Well, Eva already introduced the rent hike. Seymour is buying property, so the suggestion might be that his purchases are driving up land values in the city, which is the cause of increased rent, even if indirectly.

So I could see Lena moving depending on her relationship to Seymour, as opposed to Stan and Louise, though they of course could still be secondary causes.

If Lena is on the Seymour route, would it not be a sensible development that Seymour offer her a place to live? Similar to how Ash can have the option to move in with Jess in GGGB depending on her status.
Alternatively if Lena is not on the Seymour route he could force rent up to a point where Lena can no longer realistically live as centrally as Stan's apartment seems to be, forcing her to have to consider moving away.
If this was the structure then Lena moving out would be a matter of when rather than if. Of course on the Stan route it's possible she could stay in the current apartment if Stan's willing to pay the rent, he does have full time employment. Ash could choose to stay in her childhood home in GGGB too.
When it comes to moving in with another Ian may have the option of either Cindy or Cherry and for Lena either Axel or maybe Seymour but that's based on romance?
Lena could potentially move in with Robert too, or Mike if he breaks up with his girlfriend. Eva will probably have to choose to make the main character's living arrangements either wildly dependent, or narrow it down to some specific options. The default could of course be Ian and Lena sharing with Holly, with dependent versions if one of them find other arrangements.
