Hello everyone.
First of all I would like to point out that I am not the original author of Sophie. But I hope you'll find this exciting.
I was a Patreon supporter of Sophie. I massively enjoyed the game and like a lot of you, I had really high hopes for it's future. And so I was incredible frustrated to see it fail but I remained hopeful that he would return and continue the project, but as you know this never happened.
I recently contacted the author looking to see if there was anything that could be done. I had a response from him stating that whilst he was still passionate about the project, he wasn't able to keep up with expectations due to real world circumstances and this coupled with the Patreon crackdown on incest related titles made the project unfeasable.
And here is the exciting bit. After a few exchanges with the original author, he has handed me the keys to 'Sophie.' This obviously came with the proviso that Sophie remained as true to her original character as possible, and that storyline would continue from the first release.
Obviously there will be a few differences and continuity errors here and there. I don't have access to some of the assets that he used, and so for example, the options of dresses that were available to the player in day one won't be continued in to day two. But these remain fairly minor and won't be a game breaker by any means.
Over the next few days I'll provided more details about what's currently happening, but I am very much underway with the project. Just like the original author, I will set up a blog so that progress can be tracked, with regular updates and images etc.
So, Sophie is very much back. I'm looking forward to showing you some screens over the next couple of days, and if anyone has any good suggestions on what could be improved from the first game then I would love to hear them.
