Awesome! If it's possible for Chestnut to actually run a playtest of their additions that's a good sign that at least the basic skeleton of the new Gomira quests is in place.Weekly report 158

Chestnut will continue working cutscenes, first finishing the one she recently started, and afterward, she plans to play through the game a few times to test everything that's been done so far, take note of the necessary art tasks, and provide feedback on the new content I've added to the game since she last tested it.
Harem, to me, doesn't just mean "foursome or moresome". It means an environment where all of Lassie's gals are comfortable being sexual with him and/or each other in either a sort of "free love" relationship, or in a "master and slavegirls" setting (even if only roleplay). Otherwise it's not a harem, it's just... polygamy I guess?Obviously. You need to have the two love interests "unlocked" already before you can jump into threesomes.
I also just don't believe it's realistic for this game, given the characters and story already established. To shift from where we are into a harem setting would be a major tonal shift, and also necessitate some characterization shifts that I can't see happening. It would take a lot of work and character development for women like Myrtle and Simone to become comfortable lounging around nude on divans watching other women getting drilled by Lassie's wonderdongTM. Having a harem isn't just "two or three girls sharing the same man", it's very specifically "a large group of women, who are all reserved for sex with one man only, and they all know this". It's not enough for Lassie to run around banging a bunch of women who don't really know each other exist. So I don't actually expect the game to ever have what I would consider "real" harem content.
Note that this isn't a complaint, I wasn't actually looking for harem stuff in this one! My preferred harem stories are more along the lines of the harsher BDSM variety anyway, and Lassie's too nice a kid to be like that.
