Love to hear that there's progress and can't wait for an update! Is there any idea when we can start looking for one?

Hi All,
Episode 21 progress continues to go really well - October was a really good month with all 3 of us working continuously on the game. No roadblocks / hiccups so I'm very happy with progress and we are still on track for a November release (latter half of the month).
I also spent a lot of time auditioning new writers this month to try to expand the team. We had over 50 applicants and are currently down to a shortlist of 3 candidates. It's a difficult task to try to find someone who is up to the task. At the moment, (in my opinion) it would be difficult for people to distinguish which scenes are written by me and which ones are written by Ace and that's exactly the goal so that you, the player, never feel like there are different styles / writers working on the game (It should read like a single writer). With Ace / me, we are completely on the same wavelength, so to bring a third person in that fits the bill is a long/tenuous process and if I feel none of the candidates meet the bar, then we will not extend the team as I do not want to decrease quality as the game progresses.
The longest part of the writing process is dealing with all of the variables, branches, multiple options, etc. If it was just a matter of writing dialog in a movie-script format, then our lives would be so much easier!So that's one of the difficulties we have with onboarding a new writer. (We scare them off when they look at our branching and how many previous decisions we need to keep track off
It is also worth a mention that I don't know how Cell keeps up with the artwork demands. Considering he has me and Ace throwing work at him constantly and considering how many renders and animations we squeeze into every episode, it's crazy that he can keep up. He is a machine!!! So that's also why having another writer on-board will help. Writing is currently the bottleneck so having a third writer onboard will help alleviate that and could also free me up to spend a little more time helping Cell out with artwork.
But either way, the November timeline for episode 21 release is not dependent on us increasing the team. So even if it remains at us 3, we are still well on track for November.
Reminder of the girls who will appear in Episode 21: (Monica*, Jenna*, Katie, Elaine, Bella*, Angel*, Theresa*, plus a surprise.) The girls with an * have a "starring" role in the episode while those that don't have the asterix have a smaller / supporting role.
Let me know if any questions,
Thanks,
CG

Disagree, one of the best parts of this game is that the side girls also get a lot of content and are not just throwaway characters.

That's good to know. And please pass on to him that the word is "asterisk". Asterix is a character from a French comic book.

There all side chicks, as of this moment in the game I have yet to confirm who I will choose if any, as my heart ls conflicted. Who is in love with the Mc? and has no ulterior motive. or some secret, beside the fact I as Mc have slept with them all.Yep definitely one of the games where the side chicks have greater importance..
Who would I choose as 1st or 2nd LI, or the Money. that is the Question isn't it.

I am curious if the following would be possible. Katie as LI1 then Bella as LI2 AND MC is able to get them in a threesome.

I strongly doubt. Rather maybe a Jenna + Jolie. I don't even see a Katie+Lily+Debbie.
I would say the possible miniharem could be
Jenna + Jolie, less likely if Jolie is Dizzy.
Lily + Debbie the most likely.
Wanda + Angel, a bit far stretched, but it could make up for the relatively limited hot content for the two of them.
I don't think any other could make much sense.
Just finishing off my solo Monica Run - it was really difficult to suppress all the indulgent temptation side-tracking built in. I mean it was almost impossible to make all the necessary choices to keep Monica on top of the pile and avoid the inevitable Loreen Bobbit results. I feel that the active workings of the Devs is to make this almost impossible and yet she is still my first choice. It's really weird and counter-intuitive to keep a "clean" Monica path active (trying very hard to exclude the others) - after all this is a porn game right? It's not just choices but it is also very negative choices/reactions - some of which are game enders (so you have to keep both encouraging and discouraging side interests). Quite challenging. It's almost as if the devs want some kind of conflict in the next chapters.....

For myself, I would like to see
Mc, Jenna & Jo - as mini harem
as if Jo is Dizzy then not sure how to react.
Who ever Dizzy is. one question needs to be answered. When did she know?
In the game I feel Dizzy is the antagonist but what if it is another?
just too many question adding to the pile. I need my fix Dev!
