Thanks for the nice chart ename144 , I like reflecting on my average. I'd say my daily # is around 20ish, but then there are days in which I work on unnumbered pictures, animations, or just don't produce any pics at all. I do manage to catch up with the script writing every so often. Iirc there have been at least 3 days in which I've shot more than 50 statics.

The animations were not mentioned in the last DD, but right now we have 13 clips and... around 6 atls I think. Definitely more to come before the end of the update work. I can't wait you guys to see the technology leap in the clip department.
Glad you liked it! I started making charts to keep sane while my favorite games were updating, but it's interesting to see how they look from the other side.

I've added the animation information to my spreadsheet. I'm not sure what atls are, though.

There is hours of content at this point of development, and every second is amazing. Up to you whether you'd like to play now and take your time, or Marathon it all at once when the new update comes out, either way you're in for an excellent game from 2 of the best Devs out there

You might just be pleased this update. ;)

Animation transformation language, it's a feature of ren'py that lets you modify a displayable by using the engine. For our purposes, we basically use it to cheaply string together a series of static images and transitions into an animation. It's what we relied on earlier into the game. These are a lot more basic than the clips that GIL mention, which are .webm files of animations rendered and captured inside of the studio.

On a side note, GIL has actually been working on replacing the ATLs used in the Felicia club bathroom scene with more proper animations. Don't know if that'll make it into the next update, but thought I'd mention it.

If bandwidth is an issue or you just don't want to download the same game twice within a small span of time, no harm in waiting. It's not going anywhere. :)

I know this sounds like a cliché but this is one of the best games I have ever played. Not because of porn or fetishes but because of art. Atmosphere is capturing, degenerate games are really interesting to follow and music is perfect. Every character is well made and renders are top quality.

Nah it's the porn, fetishes, art, and story that make it one of the best vns here. It's like an adult vn version of a reece's peanut butter cup.

So just finished...Wow! This game is fucking amazing! Easily one of the best I've played recently, considering my <3 for all things milfs/mature ladies how did I not know about this game sooner!? Even the younger girls, Mina & Hana are amazing. I know I thought I was all in on Mina when I started, and I still kinda am, but it's getting ridiculously hard to stay married (pun intended) to that choice.

Ok.. So, as for Veronica, other than shall we say 'older' women, redheads are my 'other' weakness, and this amazon goddess is no exception. Sure, the mc didn't start off on the right foot with her, and given her preference to play for the other team is as stereotypical, as it is even more disappointing as I feel like any earnest attempts to romance her is doomed to fail. I'm guessing the only silver lining is if enough rep + lust is built up with her, maaayybee she'd consider some form of femdom lewdness?? I mean she says she's bisexual and cares less about what's under the hood compared to how 'cute' or 'pretty' her lovers are, but that remains to be seen. I did get a kick out of how hot and pervy she was getting over 'training' Mina. ;) Makes me wonder what a Veronica - Mina - MC threesome would look like (no way I leave Mina alone with her).

Was initially attracted to Kathleen, especially after Veronica had her fun with her, and despite how smoking hot she looks naked, gotta say, her cruelty and callous way she interacts with the girls (not to mention the digs she throws at the mc re: his mother's porn past) reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaallly makes it a struggle to still want get with her. If ever there was someone appropriate to 'hatefuck', it would probably be her, but unless the mc turns into a real scumbag (not on my watch) or she does a complete 180, not likely the L.I. I was hoping to have an affair with.

Rosie/Victoria....addressing the elephant in the room, mommy issues for the mc. Obviously easy to see the parallels with her and the mc's mother, which almost makes me wonder if 'that kink' will be brought up/dealt with at some later point. Clearly Killian has a thing for Victoria and considering that last scene we're left with (ew! watching mom's old porno vids) makes me wonder if the only sex she has will stay in the past via flashbacks. (Ok I admit, my inner perv had Rosie call me 'son' during her part in the exhibition)

Felecia: I feel like when there was time spent alone with her, we really got to see more of the real her and not just her social status. Sure it was a shock her motivations for joining the exhibition, but I feel like she did a good job at least trying to make the mc see her point of view for why she is doing what she as decided to do. It helps that she's a genuinely nice person, who's clearly bored in her current life, looking for some excitement and maybe a little validation that she isn't getting at home. Oh and clearly is DTF and is quite good at it as well.

Mina: Was apprehensive when first introduced, wasn't sure if she was who she appeared to be or if there some red flags (C'mon she's Killian's gf, she's gotta have some angle, right?) But took the chance to get to know her, and after all the bullshit Killian puts her through and literally take her for granted ALL the time, it was love at second sight. She's too good for him and sadly even though she knows he's a womanizer makes me afraid how hard it will be to break them up/make her realize her doesn't need him. For that matter, I can't understand why Killian is even with her since most of the time he treats her as a convenient accessory. Especially considering he has NO problem seemingly able to hookup just about any woman at will. Anyway, I do feel guilty about that, but after the King's game, where he got excited at the prospect of Mina and the mc kissing....hopefully he isn't too emotionally invested in the relationship where it makes it super awkward as my mc keeps getting closer to Mina.

Last but not least, Hana, is a little harder to figure out. I like her tough, bad girl, rebel, rocker vibe, with a heart of gold and alot of emotional baggage in a smoking hot, tattooed package. Once you get to know her and really start to earn her trust and friendship, its not hard to fall for the bosses' daughter as well. While I don't exactly see her with the same long-term prospect for a endgame L.I. considering her future and the mc's aspirations for med school and beyond, I sadly just don't see anything other than a friends-with-benefits/short-term casual girlfriend, but definitely not the same wifey material as say, Mina for example.

tl;dr, the game is every bit as good as I've read here, can't wait to play what I'm guessing is the next week leading up to day 2 of the exhibition? Also, love that 2/3 of my favorite girls (Mina & Hana) are getting content update/relationship progress? this update....just a matter of when, cuz this will jump straight to the front of the line in terms of other VNs I'm playing.

Hey, first of all, I appreciate you taking the time to detail your thoughts and write such a comprehensive post. It always fills me with the warm and fuzzies when people connect with our work on that level. Thanks for making my night.

To answer your question, this next update will cover a couple of days in the timeline. It probably doesn't sound like much, but both are rather packed with content in between weaving the event of the player character's birthday around Mina, Hana, and Kathleen's story lines. The update after that will cover Veronica, Rosalind, and Felicia's story lines for week 2, and the third and final update of chapter 3 will be the exhibition.

I'm crossing my fingers that the next update will come quicker this one. The last update finished just before the holiday season, which ended up slowing us down some.
