I'm afraid it's gonna be a while before we fine out, I had the big reveal in episode 2 but now that the episodes have been cut we're talking like 6 parts away, which thinking about it might be a little far, might bring it a little closer.
Six parts at two months each... Yikes! A year seems like a long time considering how up front you were to bring it into the story. Just a friendly observation. Do with it what you like.
BTW - I'm a fan of 'Where The Heart Is'. You do good work.

I'm not really looking to do releases every 2 months, I feel like I can fit a part in a month. if I can't it'll be just over a month and if I do go over a month, I just put 2 parts into 1 but cut it down a little.

Glad you like WTHI to :D

Just released a patch for the game, added in options and MrFriendly helped out with a shit ton of spelling issues :p



You will need to start a new game as current saves won't work with part 2 of the game when it comes out.
Forgot to say, this patch was really nice. Thank you, it is greatly appreciated. Wasn't expecting you to just get rid of what you already did, just was expecting you to make it so we had choices over those situations (so those who didn't mind it, still had it available). Either way, it was a very nice gesture to make those changes. Definitely like how it turned out. Thanks again! :)

Thanks, glad you liked it :) having the groping and stuff in there wasn't my original plan so I figured while I'm making changes, might as well take it out :p like people said, there was a drastic change is MC's behaviour when he turned up at the cabin and I wasn't a fan of it myself.

My only issue though is I do plan on changes those options still which may cause issues with part 2's saves :( I just want to make it so people can pick all the options rather than having to choose one.

I assume the drinking problem relates to some bad encounter of a sexual nature.
I doubt it. If she was molested/raped, I don't see why the husband (or the authorities for that matter) would doubt her word. Plus, I think the dev already reassured the "anti-NTR brigade" about it being a non-sexual event (I could be wrong, I'm too lazy to read the thread again :p).

In this first release, we already see an antagonist (don't know if he's the boogeyman... Could be the aunt's ex who's lurking around for whatever reason :devilish:) so maybe she has a stalker that keeps creeping her out. We could imagine her confiding in her husband but he ends up not taking her seriously after not noticing anything suspicious. Sick of feeling being watched, she becomes irritable and paranoiac and searched some solace at the bottom of a bottle or two every day... :cry:

From a marketing perspective, I would suggest not to make several parts into one just after your first release. It should be easier to gain some visibility with smaller but quicker updates at the beginning of your project (it's harder to keep the hype alive for a newborn project if you don't remind us regularly how great your game is :p). Then, when you have a "following", you can do whatever you want as long as you are transparent about it (y)

Then again, I'm not an expert so at the end of the day, you should do whatever you're comfortable with ;) I wish you all the best either way ^^

My only issue though is I do plan on changes those options still which may cause issues with part 2's saves :( I just want to make it so people can pick all the options rather than having to choose one.
At this step of the project, this is a non-issue (especially in a VN where the player doesn't interact much). By using the Ctrl key, the player can get to the next episode in two minutes. Therefore, don't lose any sleep about save retro-compatibility after your first release, it's not worth it :p

Even MrFriendly who's not the forgiving type would let it slide I bet :ROFLMAO:

Wouldn't worry too much on it, as it is a first release so not much progress is lost. Plus like The Daydreamer said, we can CTRL skip to get back to where we were in a minute or two. Plus, it's always a thing that can happen with games mid-development that people need to understand. Things can change during development, and people just have to expect that/be ready for it.

There is no boogeyman, he's just a man, there won't be any supernatural element to the game :p

I actually really like that idea and the guy outside the window would fit that perfect & could make a really good reason for why she's drinking, but sadly I already have plans for him :(

Good points about keeping the updates shorter at the start, would be better to build the interest first and then take a little more time with updates once people start enjoying the game :unsure:

Yeah I agree, I know some people hate having to start a fresh but with there not being to much content I can't see it being that big of an issue, best to get this issues sorted out now rather than waiting for the game to be to big.

A slasher without a boogeyman wouldn't be a slasher! :p And the boogeyman is more often than not just a psycho who likes wearing masks and cutting people throats. Sure, there are counter examples like Freddy Krueger or Candyman but a boogeyman doesn't have to have supernatural abilities, it's just the generic term that defines the antagonist in a slasher :devilish:

The mystery gets thicker and thicker! :eek: What we know until now about what triggers the drinking:
- The traumatic event occurred fairly recently.
- This is something quite hard to believe (the husband isn't supportive but he doesn't look like a complete dick so there must be a reason for the lack of trust :unsure:) but there won't be any supernatural shenanigans.
- Apparently, Grace isn't the victim of sexual abuse nor the sole survivor of a previous massacre from the antagonist.
- The dev is afraid that the reason will be a let down after our extreme theories to explain the mom's behavior :p

With all that in mind, here is my latest theory: Grace was the witness of a gruesome murder! However, after talking about it to her husband and the police, no body nor blood nor any evidence of struggle could be found at the scene. Therefore, both the authorities and the husband thought she was a little cuckoo. Because of the lack of support, poor Grace could only calm her nerves with alcohol and since then, it has become a bad habit.
It would remind me of where a kid who's locked up in his house (house arrest) thinks his neighbor is a serial killer but his mom doesn't believe him and gets seduced by the neighbor :p

I guess by that definition then yes, he is the a boogeyman :p I always thought a boogeyman was someone that hides under your bed as a kid, lol xD

Also, Disturbia, great film, probably Shia's best ( if that's how you spell his name, cba googling :p ).

You're right, in the folklore, the boogeyman can hide under the bed or in the closet and takes kids away at night to eat them (especially if they have been naughty :p). His name changes depending on the culture (in France, we call him Babau but Baba Yaga and Cuco are more well-known world wide :devilish:).

But in a slasher flick, "boogeyman" is just a way to designate the bad guy and he prefers virgins rather than naughty kids ^^

Also, Disturbia, great film
Maybe I am onto something then :p

Baba Yaga is a woman... Never understood why they used her as the name for John Wick. As I understand it Baba Yaga is a Slavic myth of an evil old crone who had a house with chicken legs... Not exactly a boogeyMAN, lol. I'm most familiar with her from decades of playing roleplaying games...

I'm afraid there won't be any NTR.
I'm new to this NTR stuff. So if 'hero' fucks his friend's mom / sister / wife, it's not NTR. But if his friend fucks 'hero's mom / sister / wife, it is NTR? Or would both be considered NTR? Or is NTR just about hurt feelings?

In a porn game, the world revolves around the Main Character. He can do (and is usually encouraged to do) whatever the hell he wants to whomever he wants. Any other guy is just a schlemiel to be kicked around. That's just the way it works. So if the OTHER guy happens to win out over some female the MC likes, that's NTR. Some players take this to an extreme, and say that any sex that is shown in the game between a man (who is not the MC) and any woman is NTR. But that is not what the site tag rules say.

Now don't ask me about when the Main Character is a female. No logical rules seem to apply there. :)

So, as I understand it there are two type of NTR... One where the MC cuckolds someone else and the other where someone cuckolds the MC. People don't have any issue with being the one who fucks a friend's wife or girlfriend but most people take issue with someone fucking the MC's love interests. Most of the time when someone mentions NTR they are referring to the latter not the former.

That first one you mentioned would probably be NTR in real life, but NEVER in a porn game. I have yet to see a single game where the MC having sex with someone else's wife, girlfriend, mother, daughter, mistress, whatever is labelled as NTR because of that. ;)
