Quick Update
Hey everyone!
Outline complete and development is underway - it's time to officially announce the new arc and resume dev diaries!
New Arc: "Can't Go Back"
Without spoiling too much: This will be a tighter, more focused update compared to "Testing the Waters." Less branching complexity and shorter length.
Expect some very important moments that will feel quite different from the OG.
Feedback & Moving Forward:
The response to the last update has been overwhelmingly positive! It seems the remake's direction is starting to pay off, so thanks for sticking with the vision.
Coming Soon:
First Arc Dev Diary tomorrow for higher tiers with more details
Resume regular Sunday Dev Diaries from this week forward
Platinum perks in the upcoming weeks as a thank you (more news on this later)
Public release across all platforms soon but I'm trying to include a couple of improvements
Appreciate all the support and patience.
Cheers,
Tori

"Can't go back" sounds like it crosses the line. If so, it just becomes another one destined to be a forgotten cult hit.
Keep up the good work... can't wait for the development of Ayumi and Terrace's storyline🥵
Just want to add my two cents and say I really loved the scenarios in 'testing the waters' and how you could mess up by pushing things too hard. I liked that it evolved into a little mini game of how fall you wanted things to go vs what she's willing to do. Added some great suspense for the player (me at least) trying to guess what the best choice is. Little bit more fun then the only choice being, you want more teasing/ tease her choice. Although those were fun too
Nice catch, I really agree! Including actual stakes and negative outcomes at all is a big leg up on similar VNs, in terms of immersing the player. Immersion seems to be a priority, which I really like
Hope Ayumi get big dick from Terrace soon.😂
I hope the writer of this game confirms it :-)
What happened in the last update/this update (ending of Testing the Waters) made a lot of sense and I think it should've happened in the original. Ayumi has at least stated she has no qualms about exhibitionism, and is even into it, and her doing what she did in this update just shows she's going further/getting more "corrupted." (Which she needs to as she needs to come out of her shell if she's gonna do anything with Terrace.) I don't know if you plan on keeping the dressing room/toga party stuff or not, but I'm hoping whatever happens you're able to keep the pacing/momentum stable and not rush into anything, but also not going too long without more NTS stuff happening. One qualm about the last update though, I think Terrace's viewpoint/the taboo of the MC's best friend seeing his GF topless got lost in the sauce/took a back seat to Ari. Ari is definitely a good tool for trying to avoid NTR by adding some sort of swinging (if thats why she's there), but I feel that her actions/reactions took over from Terrace's and it would've been hotter if the taboo-ness of Terrace seeing her topless was pushed more. Maybe some inner monologue from Terrace or Ayumi, idk. We got some words from Terrace and Ari mentioning that he couldn't stop staring at Ayumi's breasts but that was it I think. Just food for thought. I'm very into building the tension and making the pay-offs as good as possible. Great game so far Tori.
Bro good i though this game was dropped 😭
Have faith brother, this one is going the distance 🫡
Looking forward to it Tori, keep up the stellar work! Our patience has been well rewarded
