Corporate Development Memo (11/24/2025)

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to those that are celebrating it this week! The first wave of my family/friends are coming Tuesday (not many can afford to take a long time off to visit through the wedding but a few can do it being like retired or self-employed, etc.) and I apologize for a very late update but I just spent all night on wedding stuff, etc. Almost past 1 am and just getting back...yikes.

To make things easier for family/friends, we all rented a really big beachfront vacation home like a tourist for two months! It will help everyone fit that don't stay with my parents or other family here (a few want to stay at hotels too for privacy) and it's within five minutes to my parents place so everyone should still be very close together. My cousin - I have mentioned her before, now a freshman at a great university - will be the one person staying with me personally for Thanksgiving, flying back to the Northeast area of the United States, taking her exams, and flying back again for the wedding/her school break!

I admit I am starting to get a bit overwhelmed with things so I'm trying my best to balance time, etc. I'm really excited and up emotionally but now starting to worry about a lot of details and things I have tried to not think about too hard, hehe...

I did a bit over 100 renders and wrote quite a bit more this week. I am getting very formal help to close out the update with Anais next week coming on to essentially help run the site, last renders (I will write the dialogue and direct a lot of camera shots like we usually do) and that kind of thing.

Anais has already been running the Patreon site as the admin for the last two months and it's been a BIG help to me, the little details and things. Her formal game help with renders is starting very soon. I expect she will end up helping me render the last two scenes on my list below. This update from Test --> Final is longer than prior updates because I want to add essentially four scenes versus usually two in prior Test-Final updates.

So I apologize for a slightly longer turnaround time but to be fair, there's more being added this time too. Here is my remaining task list for what I call a Final A Version. I will release a 8.3.1FinalA and then likely very quickly do a FinalB (usually less than a week if not only a day or two) if any last minute massive errors are found, etc.

Final A list:

Minor tweaks and end to sub scene preview scene images above, dom scene preview scene above.

Remaining scenes: Dom scene w/Claudia (a bit more evil) and Game 6 sub scene (Olivia based)

About 12 renders left for outro out of 31ish -- 19 done or so, 12 left.

Testing

It's a simple list but the scenes are not super short either.

I am honestly trying to get this done in two weeks but this week is nasty (in terms of time commitments) but doing what I can and juggling as best as I can...I feel a bit behind in everything and expected a lot of time crunch, but I'm still a bit surprised.

I'm honestly really feeling a lot of emotions right now with everything happening but I'm very lucky and know it!

Please have a wonderful week everyone! I am working hard on this and realize for next time that I might wait until two scenes are left for a Final Version before a Test is out.

Love,

Tess
