Just to set things straight: The game isn't abandoned. I'm currently missing 2 major scenes (3 parts each) and have finished most of the update. The total scenes I counted were about 27 or something (not including repeat versions), which means I've already finished about 21 of those. The artist is also doing work for v0.3 already.
The story had to be revisited a lot because sometimes Irene was looking like she's being forced (which we don't want) and Daiki sometimes looked like he actually had a plan more complicated than his character allows - which made him look smarter than he is. I'm not even gonna talk about the code required for this, you will be able to see for yourselves.
I opened up a ticket and I got the reply that when the update is released, the abandoned tag will be removed, which is cool by me and understandable.
Here's the settings to look forward to:
And some with just 1 part
The first ones have 2-4 parts each. Most have 3 progression parts. Which means that though the setting remains the same, the scene is different and... more spicy.
Also, the sexual themes in this level are:
v0.3 will definitely have blowjobs and cum eating, that's what the artist is making rn. It might have some Laura in - or at least we've discussed that maybe some light Laura content would be more than welcome.
I've also finished the Circles gameplay, which basically means that each activity will be seen and explained in the menu, as well as broken down in a tooltip if you click on it. This is largely discussed in posts and discord.
Everything I've talked about here is teased and discussed in posts and discord as well. I'm going a bit full throttle with the last scenes to move on to testing (I will also release it for tiers 2 and 3 probably, though I've no idea what kind of bugs they might encounter)
There's also a lot of more technical changes that have to do with fps drops. I might require an entire separate post in the changelog for those, cause they are a lot. Just for those of you who enjoy tech stuff:
Anyway, quite honestly thank you all for liking the game so much, it's extremely flattering and humbling and I had no idea people would like it this much. And I have to give mad respect to Yamkha, the artist, for working tirelessly despite my many peculiarities when it comes to commissioning (there usually are a ton of layers and variations involved)
As soon as it's bug-tested and fixed, I will post it here too. The game is meant to be playable for free always.
I hope I cleared some stuff with this post and gave you an insight of where we're at, and hopefully you won't be as mad at me for taking so long. Good work is being done.
PS: Also do remember that both this and On Edge are passion projects of mine. I also have a job irl, and after a breakdown I experienced, I also resumed my social life too. I am doing these literally because I enjoy making them.
PS2: After I finish this update, I will move back to finishing On Edge's overhaul. That will use most of the code from this, so luckily I won't have to rewrite a ton of code. Meanwhile, the artist will be finishing Satisfy Him's scenes for v0.3. If we include Laura, then he will have a lot of work to do, as the current idea is that Laura will be able to do whatever Irene does, in her place (so cleaning, cooking, etc). I will talk more of this after the update is done.
