Weekly update #136
Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update!

This week was a very good one. I finally finished working on the second-to-last major scene of Episode 7. I also started writing the script for the last scene. I'm not sure how long it will take me (it's always difficult to predict with the animated scenes), but I don't think Episode 7 will be ready before the end of May. The first half of June is a much safer bet, but I'll try to finish it as quickly as possible.

From other things, it seems like Evelyn won this month's wallpaper poll! It's the first time for Evelyn so I'll try my best to create a good one :)

Anyway, that's all for this week, thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope your week was great,

Weekly update #137

Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update!

This week was a good one. I started creating renders for the last scene of Episode 7 and I've done more writing for it (still plenty of work before it's completed). I think I should be able to have everything mostly written and rendered next week. Then, the week after that, I'll create and render the animations; while they're rendering, I'll work on the in-game gallery and polish everything so that the update can be released soon after the animations are rendered. If everything works out, I hope Episode 7 can be released in the first half of June :)

Talking about the in-game gallery, I wanted to get your opinions on something - from what I've seen, most games have the gallery locked at first and the scenes in the gallery only unlock when they're viewed by the players in the game. However, many of the players (probably those more interested in the scenes than in the story) download gallery unlockers so they can just view the scenes without playing through the whole game. Do you think it would make sense to simply have the gallery unlocked from the start by default? Or would that be a bad idea? I'll be posting a poll asking this question in a minute, I'd love to hear your thoughts before I start working on the gallery.

Anyway, that's all for this week's post, thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope your week was great,

RobertDeadth

Maya :) Episode 7 should be out in the first half of June if everything goes well!

Also, there's a public poll about the upcoming in-game scene gallery on , I'd appreciate your votes :)
If it takes less work, I think it should come completely unlocked. After all, no one is forced to open the gallery.
If someone wants to see the scenes in the game, let them play the game.
I prefer it to come unlocked, although I use unren which already unlocks all images and videos.

That was my thinking too, but so far, it seems like the vast majority of people actually prefer the gallery to be locked. I'm pretty surprised by the results so far, I'm glad I created the poll :unsure:

Weekly update #138

Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update!

The work on Episode 7 continues as expected. This week, I finished working on creating renders and writing the script of the last scene. Tomorrow, I'll start working on creating and rendering the animations needed for this update, which will probably take around 10 to 14 days. While the rendering takes place, I'll be working on the in-game scene gallery, so that the update is ready for release as soon as the animations are done.

Talking about the in-game scene gallery, thank you so much for voting in the poll! Based on the results, the gallery will be locked by default. For those who prefer the gallery unlocked, I'll see if adding an "unlock gallery" button is an option. I think if that proves doable, both sides of the debate should be satisfied.

Anyhow, that's all for this week's post, there'll probably be two more weekly updates before the release unless things go much quicker or slower than I expect. Thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope your week was great,

I am now in chapter two, but till now the "game" feels like a cart on a rail, not much into choices or not even free roam or at least some kind of mini games. The characters seem nice so far, but I am a bit on the fence with this game with the lack of freedom

It is a visual novel not a game. It does not have any mini games nor free roam. It has zero tags for sand box. The choices you make when interacting with the female characters change how they act towards you or if the will like you or not.

Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update! Just a quick one this time.

The work on finishing Episode 7 continues and is going pretty well. The first animations are being rendered and look good, I'm also working on adding the in-game gallery and putting everything together before the release. I don't think the update will be completed next week, but it should be pretty close, so unless something drastic happens, expect Episode 7 to be ready anytime from the 10th to the 15th of June!

That's all for this week, I'm excited to finally be done with the update and let you all play it :) Thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope you're all doing well,

FUnny, even the Author calls it a game.... so the joke ios on you.

I have more quirks with this GAME, it is hard to imagine the layout of the "house" you only read of "the corridor" so the imagination says its one large and probably 100s of meters long straight lines hallway with doors left and right, but even if not the different layouts and sizes of the rooms dont make sense if they are "nex to each other"..

The MC also looks like he is in his 40s rather than 25 ...
There is more , but I dont want to be too critical right now, since its only Episode 4 where I am, but the story so far is shallow at best. As a european , the UIS culture gets tiresome and boring (and for me more and more alien with the years,) I like the female characters so far

Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update!

I've got some good news today - Episode 7 will be released either tomorrow (Monday) or the day after (Tuesday)!

The work on the in-game scene gallery is done and it seems to be working nicely. Sadly, a new playthrough might be required for the scene gallery to work correctly and show all of the scenes. The game should still work if you just load and continue your old playthrough, but a new save is recommended if you care about having all of the scenes show up in the gallery correctly.

Anyway, I just need to work on some finishing touches before release, so I'll see you all soon once that's done :)

Thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope you're all doing well,

Hey everyone, it's time for another weekly update!

The main news is that Episode 7 of Tune in to the show was released on Monday. If you've somehow missed it, the links to download it can be found !

Thanks so much to everyone who has played it already :)

Now, as you know, I'll take some time to focus on finishing An Evening of Wonders. I'll be keeping you all updated on how things are progressing with the usual weekly update posts. With that game, the goal is to have a decently successful Steam release, but that doesn't mean that I'll only start working on Episode 8 of Titts after AEoW is released on Steam. It's possible that once I'm done working on AEoW, I'll send out some copies to Steam curators for review to gain more wishlists before release because it seems to be a good marketing strategy. Just wanted to make sure that you all know that I'll be back to working full-time on Episode 8 as soon as I've finished An Evening of Wonders, not when it's released (because those two events might be a few weeks apart).

Anyhow, I'm excited for the second half of the year, if An Evening of Wonders does well, it'll be a huge help to both Tune in to the show and any other future projects I'll be working on. Keep your fingers crossed :p

That's all for this post, thank you so much for your support and reading, I hope you enjoyed Episode 7 and your week was great,
