4 days ago there was an update on Dev's Patreon. So the game is not yet abandoned! Lucky day! Any chance to have direct reply from the dev?
Making Patreon posts isn't enough to convince many that it is not abandoned. Been over a year of similar posts. So, if I were the dev, I wouldn't post anything until the update is ready. That's when I begin proudly subbing and dishing out the money...again.

Agree. But previous post was many months ago, so I'm supposing that "maybe"... who knows! Let's wait and wish. Even here something was added by someone that seems to be a dev. :)

Updates for week ending 05/26
New
21 hours ago
More updates and additions and some other fixes for this week. I am hopeful that I can get all the things I want done for the update next week. Yeah... It's coming. It probably won't be 100% done, but there will be major changes to some of the UI. Especially the phone system now.
I will be finishing up with the additions that were made earlier. The Brynn Gym section will start this update, but not finish. Other classroom actions will be complete, but some loose ends will be next update.
Here we go once again with the lists:
Secrets Fixes and Additions week of 05/19
Fixes:
1. Fixed when Brynn is in bedroom in the afternoon and no screen shows
2. Fixed school actions and the Navigation to provide a better flow
3. Fixed pool actions for Valerie for scenes without Angela (Mornings)
4. Made the story for Mari as a clerk stay in with the webcam storyline for flow
5. Made the hold-up scene much clearer
6. Brynn now works on Friday, Saturday and Sundays (Until certain quests are complete for Sunday nights)
Additions:
1. Added multiple screens and images for the changing mini-game. Also changed the UI System so when you hover over the button, you can see what Rayne will potentially wear. (So proud of this)
2. Added Living Room area for Vals home
3. Added Val action while sleeping on couch
4. Added Val action for photo series in Living Room – After photo 1
5. Added stage 1 for val photo session in MChome
6. Added a new scene for Mari after hold up during webcam series
7. Added a way to send Brynn a photo by notification on the phone system
8. Shooting Action with Angela after hold up scene one
Added a new system to the phone. Right now, you are able to see a reminder to text Brynn. I will be using that system to be able to text other characters.

Alright, so here are the details. If you checkout the photos above, you will see the major phone update. This is the last update for the phone until the next update. It wasn't easy to get the desired look of it, so I am hoping you will all like it.
Additions and Fixes are very little this week, since the phone took up most of the week, creating the assets and rendering extra time. I have made changes and updated a few other scenes, since the older ones didn't look great for me.
I did add a few more photos to the chat system as well. Also, added another story scene for Val and Rayne, but won't appear until I update the next version. Re-making the library scenes with Brynn, and fixed the stupid loop hole in that to make it easier to figure out.
Should I think about re-making stage 1 to be less grindy, and only in certain parts, or are you guys happy the way it is? I was thinking of streamlining that for next update as well. Let me know here or DM.
Next week, should be the release of this update. On Friday or Saturday I will be having someone from here test the game before it is released to you. Thanks!

Hello again...

The newest update is ready. I will be uploading it on Friday for $5.00 and up subs. I want to personally thank everyone who stuck by me during the trying times of my life within the last year or so.

Warning though: The file size is 2.5 gb, that's 500MB bigger than the last one! Some of the content still has not been put in, because I did run out of time placing them into the code. I will be continuing the updates as promised and updating you on the updates weekly.

The phone system is almost perfect, Just a few more things to add to it, and then it is finished. Next update there will be roughly 300 more images, and new systems coming. Still haven't decided if I am to go more streamline with the grinding aspect of stage 1.

Have a great day and the rest of the week! I will be updating this for next Monday. Thank you all again.
