Hi everyone!
We’re going back to our traditional voting format — Bianca’s taking a break this time.
In a few days, I’ll post another development diary (weekly? monthly?) where I’ll share some interesting updates.
Thanks for your support, and stay tuned!

Around this time exactly one year ago, I began assembling the first demo version of the game that later went into release (all the early alphas and betas were made since late August). Since then, we’ve come a long way together - about 15 updates so far. And there’s more to come.

Right now I’m working on two updates at the same time: v0.26 and something like v0.xx.
What does v0.xx mean?

The numbered update (0.26) will be released as scheduled, and the xx update will be included in a regular release once it’s ready.
In this "xx" branch, I’ve started remastering old scenes. Some scenes will also receive expansions. I'm not touching story content or code outside the scenes, so this won’t affect gameplay.

When will it be finished?
That’s a tricky question, because some of the oldest scenes require almost a complete art replacement - and based on experience, that takes much longer than I’d like, around 3-4 full days per scene.
Right now I’m extremely short on time (I’ll explain why below), so I can only redo no more than 2 scenes per month.
At that pace, all the planned scenes will be remastered in around 3-4 months, and then uploaded as one big batch (most likely in v0.30).

Since I’ve also planned a lot of fixes, sound additions, etc. specifically for v0.30, that update is going to be huge - so huge that it probably won’t fit into the usual development cycle.
So most likely, after the release of v0.29 (around February), the game will go into “maintenance mode” for about two months.
I hope it will be worth it - and don’t worry, you won’t be left without content. Here’s why:

I already have assets, the text part of the prologue, and part of the logic ready for the parallel project I announced a few months ago.
It will differ from Three and One in concept, but will have a similar visual style.
To assemble a working demo and show it to you, I’ll need about five days - but I’ll work on that only after Three and One v0.26.
So expect it in the second half of November.

Three and One remains my top priority until the end of development.
The second project will receive updates gradually, as material accumulates (its format will allow that).

Sorry for the long post.
For everyone who managed to read this far - here’s a little challenge: guess who the girls in the picture are cosplaying.
Whoever posts the correct answer in the comments (on Patreon) - I’ll send a private link tomorrow with several another arts of the girls.

Once again - Happy Halloween, and thank you for your support!

Hello everyone!

Let’s go in order.

The poll is now closed. After counting the weighted votes (taking Tier weights into account), it became clear that the winner was already decided by the second day - and it’s Zoe :) So she should get ready for a photoshoot!

poll_07.jpg

Three and One Update Release
I’m already at the final stage. Only the dessert and a few story moments are left to finish.
The release will happen this weekend (November 15-16).

[redacted!] Demo Release
As I mentioned earlier, the demo is planned to be released within about a week after the main title.
The demo will include:

  • the prologue,
  • a showcase of the basic gameplay,
  • and some additional content.
I already have a working build, but it needs a bit of polish.
The demo will be available to all patrons, regardless of tier.

After the demo, I’ll prepare the full release of [redacted!], which will be distributed as usual.
I’ll share more details about the story, genre, and so on in the post that comes with the demo release.

Discord Launch
In the second half of the month, I plan to launch the Discord server.
It will use Patreon’s tier-based access system - each tier will have its own permissions and topic visibility.
The server will also be open to regular visitors, but with much less content available.

The Discord is intended to become an important part of our community (which is exactly why it took me almost a year to set it up, haha).
It will include an easy-to-navigate list of existing RAW image packs, and exclusive RAW animations will be available there for Tier IV patrons.
These animations are too few to compile into full packs, but they can be shared conveniently through Discord.

Thank you all for your support!
Stay tuned.

I know it's a lot to ask, but could you include Spanish in a future update? I love your story, but I don't want to miss any details :S

I won’t be able to help you, since I’m not planning to make translations for now.
Also, I don’t know Spanish.
However, there are several threads on F95 where people translate games into Spanish.
Mis traducciones al español and Mis traducciones automáticas al español

I also saw somewhere (not here) a Spanish version of Three and One.
I don’t know who translated it or how good the translation is, but it’s definitely in Spanish.

this game is played in first person is it not? and there are choices that allows us to act in a certain way. in a game where we are supposed to insert ourselves into the main character, being able to rename him to something of our choosing is like a basic feature.

also, it's not difficult to implement nor will it require much more than 10 min to do. but if you don't want to, that's your business. i'm not gonna demand you cater to me, i was just expressing my surprise.

The character is just a person that Dev chose for his game(belongs only to the dev),it's not you,neither me nor anyone else.
