Hello,

It's me, ya boy.

Soo... This is the first real dedicated Dev Log for Chapter 4.5.

1. General

The development is going amazing. The last days were spent creating animations for the new Chapter.
While 4.5 doesn't feature a cinematic (yet), it does feature some... 'other animations' ;)

The only 'challenge' the new Chapter gives me is the phone. While I do have two coder bois, they're only helping me in their free time and are unpaid slaves.

This means I'm still looking for an advanced Renpy coder. (Pay per project.)

Shoot me a DM on Discord (They are disabled for non-friends, ping me on the server and I'll add you if you're interested.)

All in all, everything is going well.

WiAB's about to update soon, and to those who haven't played it yet, the about to released Chapter 2 is going to feature some interesting info.

2. Chapter 4.5 + Previews

The new Chapter is heavily Mila/Victoria focused. At least two playthroughs are needed to see it all.

It depends on which route you are.

Both routes are... well endowed. (Neutral route, too.)

The new Chapter will be quite different from previous Chapters... and some wise words from the Cheeto might soon become reality.

But even if you're not particularly interested in Mila/Victoria.

The Chapter is still going to be interesting to you.

I guess that was pretty much it.

Back to work.

Aaaw Victoria is such a cutie. :love:
But all the girls are gorgeous. So I guess I need one save per girl, for all the LI girls.

I wasn't gonna play another update until more Bella or Nami content since I don't very much care for the rest of the cast but this might make me change my mind. Also wanna know more about Sasha and Nami's matching earring...

I did a fresh playthrough last night to see the reworked CH1 and it really freshens up the game, worth it and people that never seen the "old" CH1 will probably love it.

My plan was to do saves for a solo Vic and Mila routes, but ended up with Bella and Nami again. Was going so good with Mila... :LOL:

Didn't find a 0.4 beta only 0.3 beta. but dude reworked Ayua is way better than previous.

Speak for yourself lol
personally I feel that while she looks cuter, it doesn't suit her personality and I'd gotten used to the old Ayua not gonna lie

Thanks for this preview stuff!
When it comes to the art of SG, which is simply great and does not need hide behind stuff made by bigger studios, Ocean did a great update with the new version. While I still say that blackhaired "old" Ayua is nicer on the eye than "new" blackhaired Ayua, her best version we see just once or twice currently, which is unfortunate, and is this one. Finally we really see who´s daughter she is and hopefully she stays like this.

As for the main love interests of the game, Bella, Mila and Nami are the top three spots, hopefully Ayua will catch up there when we meet her more.

You gawd damn right! What's the most amazing thing about this game for me it is how are the plot, dialogue, background music and graphics are fit together to make an emotional involvement into the scene. Let's say, I totaly like the STWA:Unbroken, it's author knows for sure how to write a good novel, but the text feels a little bit heavy for me comapring to the SG, while both games are great in each own way.

Yes At first, I felt the story was extremely depressing. If you continue to play, you will be attracted by its plot and exquisite character models. Nami, in particular, is an indispensable figure in the story.

Can respect that.
Personally, have no intention of touching this until it's completed.
If it ever gets to that stage and even when, still depends on my colleagues advice.

Till then, i'll admire the pretty pictures posted and the good people sharing about it all.

And whose daughter is she? I'm pretty sure the game didn't mention that detail.

Ayua is most clearly the daughter of

Hopefully she is as wonderful quirky and eccentric as her parents! Since she is a good friend of Bella, that should be the case.

There isn't much plot or choice-driven story to this point in the narrative. (Thusfar, something traumatic happened to MC, he goes to college and all girls fall over themselves trying to hook up with him. To be continued ...) The visuals and soundtrack are doing a lot of the heavy lifting so far, but it's still quite early on.
