Did you see the eclipse?

On August 12th, my wife, kids and I went outside to watch the massively overhyped eclipse of the sun. Only a partial one where we are, but still 98% coverage. We even took the dog to the local park behind our house, a proper family affair. So, industrial grade welding visor glass in hand, plus a few pinhole cameras we had made out of cereal boxes and tin foil with our youngest son, we sat on the picnic mat to wait. The sky was relatively clear, and we could tell we'd get a good view. 45 minutes later, at 98%, we couldn't see shit. Clouds are bastards. Shoulda just watched it on TV. We did that later, and laughed at the earlier pointless excursion. We all bonded a bit that day. As a father and family man, it was a good day.

Anyway, where are we at? As is usual in this crazy world, not as far as we'd like. Eh, shit happens (in this case dayjobs), so we are behind. But, there is always good shit to cover up the bad. As you know, we promised some translations for the current update (Update 4), they were completed a few weeks ago. Our coder has had a job change to aclimatise to over the last few weeks, which he now has, and is starting to get those into the build. It's Chinese, Latin American Spanish, and French. All human translated by the amazing Chocolate Legend (CN), Heathens (BR-PT), and PandaDrummer (FR) respectively. This will either be pinged to everyone before the next update, or just included in Update 5. We also have an Android build ready to be uploaded, and we'll ping you about that too. We love the pings. Well, I do! Hahaha!

Numbers then. Well, one number. Just word count this time. I have to come clean. This update is NOT going to have about 75% of the word-count of Update 4. I have struggled so hard to reach this number but it just isn't possible. For those of you who know me, being succinct isn't my forté (neither is using common conversational words in the dialogue I write). So, this update will definitely have more words than I anticipated, but I think you are going to like it. Currently we are at 15,515 words, with two small-ish scenes left to write. I am already 1,200+ words over that 75% threshold. Oh well.

Renders! Yeah, let's talk about renders. OMFG, Mist has been turning out some quality pixel manipulations. MILF lovers are going to enjoy this update, as you can see from the teasers below. That fiery redhead is Elizabeth. She is very happy to finally meet our MC. Hehe, is he gonna partake in a little prime pussy? We also have some tender scenes with Ivy. After the emotional reconciliation-of-sorts with Rose, how is she feeling the next day? Mist has given us a beautiful tender moment here. It's short but sweet! And of course we have Trisha, that excitable southern supervixen. She's had a small makeover, what do you think? (Vortex, I am primarily talking to you here, hehe)

I guess we'll finish this update with news of the player-voted scene with Rachel. Yeah, it has been given the thumbs up on the dialogue from The Man. It's a decent length and we will get to know Rachel a little more, and her... lifestyle. I am really pleased with it. This won't be the last scene with her, there's a story to develop and a lot of fun to be had with her. I could say more, but I won't.

That's about it for this month, not going to think about release dates yet, too early for that, but progress is moving along nicely. Join us on the Discord if you want to chat, or here, we'll be happy to answer any questions, or shoot the breeze.

Until next time, be seeing you!
