New Dev Diary today!

Hey there thanks for all of these charts since you've begun doing it, that's really great.

One thought though: simply displaying the mere total for each past update is of very little comparative information when you don't take into account the time spent for each one. However, showing instead the evolution curve for past updates with regards to time just like you're doing for the current update would be far more relevant and interesting to compare with. And the good thing is you've already got this data since you already did all this for past updates. You would just need to offset the timeframe to the same starting date as the current one and there you go, we've got an actual relevant visual comparison with past updates to estimate the relative progress of the current update !

I would be really grateful if you could do this in the future. In any case, thanks again for these charts, they are interesting either way :).

It's not normally my thing; I started my charts with BaDIK and over there another poster usually handles the historical perspective. You're right the data exists, though. There are a few potential minor caveats since this isn't quite how the sheet was set up, but this should be more or less accurate:

I don't have data prior to Chapter 3 Update 1, and obviously there's no historical data for Words in the earlier chapters. But hopefully this will scratch the itch well enough. :)

Devs not posting on patreon about update or any progression info anymore why?
We make a post every week with either a developer diary, preview image, or bonus image. Our last dev diary detailing our progression was posted just short of two weeks ago. We've slowed down on the frequency of developer diaries this update cycle (from every other week to every 3 weeks) since we don't usually have anything more to report other than the numbers going up.

Looks like there's a brand new dev diary today!

Let's see... In the last 14 days TD and GIL have completed 191 pictures, 7 animations , and 4424 words, an average of ~95 static pictures, 3.5 animations and 2212 words per week. Overall they are now averaging roughly 322 statics, 4.2 animations and 2252 words per week since work on Chapter 4 Update 1 began. We also learned there will be approximately 200 more static pictures to finish the update (possibly a bit more). Here are the charts:

As you can see, we're 2-3 weeks away from hitting GIL's target for static images at the present pace; my guess is it will be closer to two if animations are mostly complete. We need to add 1-2 weeks to playtest the update once it's complete, but even with that we seem to be well positioned for an October release from the art point of view. The big question mark is words; we don't have much of a baseline (since they've never been tracked before), and there could be a slowdown if TD isn't feeling well. (Hope you feel better soon, TD!)

It sounds like we're in the home stretch and now it's a question of how rugged the terrain will be. We'll keep our fingers crossed for a nice, smooth path to the finish line!

Had to work out a PC failure so I ended up losing all my progress. I think I'll wait for another big update (can't remember which version I had, it's been a while).

Also, Hana #1.

Any estimate on the upcoming release date?
October based on latest dev update however its not set in stone.

Personally I am really looking forward to this one as it is hana focused and I am a sucker for well written romance - hana is the best candidate for that. The club related sex scenes were not very appealing for me personally as I am not a fan of Kath's flavor of sadism or prostitution.

Speaking of, I'm really curious to see if Hana will become more open to or even corrupted to the idea of the club. Does anyone else feel the same? I think it would make for extremely interesting storytelling and choices if how we see the club effects how she feels about it. Maybe she might warm up to it because of us or her more involved position makes her realise her inner depravities.

It would definitely make things darker because she's one of the only people working there that seems to have some basis of morality (societal ones at least, I don't judge) and I think having an option or path for her to change her mind and partake in her (likely) boyfriend's darker tendencies if any would add a lot of depth to her route.

Don't think it's that likely. They've been dancing around calling an egg an egg for a while already.

"Hey you know we really like each other a lot and I lived together with you for a bit and might have rubbed one out on you but that doesn't mean we're TOGETHER I mean geez what do you take me for? A cheap hussy? Don't you dare call me your girlfriend before signing the contract!"

great models, just wish it wasn't NTR lite.
Oh you just had to start with that shit now right?
