Obsidu - You are a talented render artist. You design a FUTA and I'll make you a bonus episode for all of the support since Day 0! But it's not happening to Monica and it's not getting into the general release version! :)

I wouldn't mind it as a dream sequence (and of course not with the MC, but maybe with Zarah or that bitchy model Wanda or whatshername)... apart from that nothing needs to be added to Monica's body, thank you. :)

@CheekyGimp
Okay genuine question here (woo first post and all that shit). Is there any way of donating more than $10 a month which would result in faster/more frequent episodes?

While each update is great and very enjoyable, I am not enjoying waiting so long between them! It's worse than a cliffhanger in a TV show. I find myself randomly just wondering what will happen next with Jenna, or Monica, hell even Zarah, and the curiosity doesn't fade in a few days, it remains up until the next update.

Are finances causing releases to be so far apart? (I realise that's relative, some have even longer gaps between updates) Or is it simply work/life schedule which cannot be aided with more money?

Thanks and keep up the good work.

I could say finances are causing releases to be far apart (and hopefully drive some extra patrons), but.... it would be a lie!
The main reason updates take so long is because of the amount of work involved. I have a full-time job, so I spend about 5-6hrs per evening (weekdays) and about 10-12hrs per weekend working on it and still barely manage to get an update out every month. sometimes I take an evening or weekend day off for RL shit and sometimes I cram extra time into the game, but overall, it's around 60hrs per week. I managed to cope solo for the first few months because I had been working on stuff in the background before I ever released, so I had a bit of a stockpile to pull from, but now I wouldn't be able to get an update out monthly without Aeilion on the team! So without him, I would have had to switch to an update every two months, rather than one per month.
The delay before this episode was the longest since I started because a good chunk of Nov/Dec were a write-off because I had too much other shit to sort out (Girlfriend QT, exams and I changed job).
So, in short, more money won't increase release speed. But eventually, would like to continue to expand the team, so that would be the next financial goal! But even if I expanded the team, I wouldn't move to updates shorter than a month. I'd work on improved quality / possibly more features (one good example would be the ability to add short animations since Aeilion cmae on board)

So has it been stated outright as to whether this will have a harem ending, or is trying to go down multiple paths bound to end up like The Witcher 3?

The inheritance is far too little money to support a proper harem with Cheeky seemingly adding 1-2 girls per update. I'm hoping to have fun with the cast, then hit the eject button at the right time and run off with Lily.

That would depend on the MC managing to meet all of his fathers requirements and his ability to screw the other two beneficiaries out of the rest of it so that he can get the full inheritance.

Looks like I'm going to have to stick to A New Dawn for my Katie fix. I think I'm going to have to find out what other games that model in.

Congrats great update again. Good pacing, got to see a bit of Jenna again and a few other surprises.
Overall the writing was satisfying. I have just one minor remark regarding the last scene.
