We had an update a few days ago:
Sounds like we're going to get a update in August and that there are big plans for the future.Mid-July Musings
Hiya - MM here, the writer. Just wanted to express appreciation for you as you support our efforts and we continue to strive to provide you with quality content. I'm working out the last few sections of The Club while Max is on a brief and well-earned vacation.
I know that we plan on upgrading the look of our products, both in terms of presentation and art, so that we're back on the cutting edge of graphical impact. We're also looking at changing some of the models. I'm incorporating a point system in The Club that has been there since I started to write it, so I'm confident it will turn out much better than the Dinner attempt at a point system which was fairly much tacked-on after the writing was done. This time the point system will be enjoyable and integral.
We're also looking at different narrative points of view. We've had strong opinions expressed here and on other sites supporting first person, some supporting second person, and some supporting third person. We've had strong opinions opposing first person, opposing second person, and opposing third person. I think I've come to the conclusion that I've just got to write in the style and point of view that I can write best in getting across the experiences I'm trying to paint in collaboration with my partner. I've been wringing my hands trying to figure out how to please every one in every way, and that's just not possible. So, I'm going to settle on what I do best and hope those efforts are good enough to continue to earn your support.
Coming up, I think we're going to allow patrons of a certain level and/or duration the chance to influence which looks we use for some of the main characters in The Club. I haven't talked to Max yet about that (sorry, Max!), but I hate making assumptions about what you, our most prized consumers, want from us in terms of the art.
Well, I just wanted to drop a line and again express how much I appreciate your continued support - especially during times that are so uncertain. Still, things seem to be looking up, generally, and I hope they are for all of you as well.
MM
Note- There will be an August release. There will be a new path and a set of new images added to a portion of Dinner. That seemed to be one thing that was almost universally requested, and we're aiming to do that for our patrons as I nail down the text for the new stuff. Max is also in the process of fixing some of the code on Unforgettable to improve that experience.
