Corporate Development Memo (2/1/2026)
Hi everyone!
I haven't formally done a "hard edit" check on these images so there might be a little error or two on them for later editing. But I felt like sharing a bit larger batch of images as I had a hard time cutting them down! (I had three more images on onsen scene I really liked but cut them down even to get to this point!)
This is my second full week on 8.32 and feeling really light and strong! As I kind of talked about prior, having way way way less time stress with the wedding planning over is a huge difference in my day to day life. The design and side business stuff are still busy but honestly the personal stuff was way more pressing on me (both mentally and just on pure time). I think most females getting married can likely identify with what I am saying in a way less guys might but I definitely don't want to generalize...just a guess, hehe.
So I feel very energized and free with hours in a way I haven't in maybe a good full year.
Absolutely no promises as I don't really know but I have a feeling about how I might work on this update in certain good weeks...maybe my speed will be a bit better in certain moments. I might surprise...but we'll see.
I have screwed up with one thing as that's making a new pinned post on the page with everything and I will do that this week and it's on my list. I just forgot to do it and will make sure!
I'm helping my hubbie get certified in a few scuba areas! So fun! But of course he's interested now in the more "funny" named ones (yes these are real ones you can learn lol)
Mermaid Specialty
Zombie Apocalypse Specialty
Just fun ones schools sometimes do for marketing, etc. But one thing I really wanted him to learn was CPR/First Aid that kind of thing not just water but overall. (I am certified in a lot of this stuff just in case etc)
I'm learning from him a lot of finance stuff and learning so much I am thinking of some formal stuff later. (we'll see) My "test" stock on a trading real time platform I used with him is that I bought a lot of Take Two (GTA/Red Dead) stock as we saw it dump hard and I decided to buy the dip! Maybe GTA6 will suck and I get burned or it's already priced in too much. (it dropped because of investor panic of Google AI thing which I think is too premature for gaming specifically and I know a lot more about AI compared to most people I think -- personal connections in my life) But on the other hand, I wouldn't advise future children of mine too hard on specific professions long term...
Sorry for rambling, just in a good mood and feeling the gift of gab! I'm working hard on the game as shown below!
---------------
This week --> 130 renders completed! Overall total: 142 --> 272 total renders
That little bonus of work on a very short "zero" week is helping as it feels I did a lot for two full weeks of work!
I have animations pending on the sex scene above but not sure yet how many as I'm still working on it. I am considering trying to learn Blender as well for animations but I need to carve out time for it that is kind of difficult overall. But I still am thinking about it!
------------
Poll: I will release a poll this week asking about image sets and customs. I am thinking of numerous ideas and want to get a temperature check again. Remember that in general if I do say 60 images of this, it tends to match roughly 60 images from the game time but it honestly for me is kind of a nice change of pace. I like doing them and I especially like trying characters in "non-traditional" roles that I can't in the game. For example, one sub set had Amy being very evil so I kind of had fun with that and say another set with Celeste or Juliette as good might be interesting to me. But I also like people being able to do the polls as they like and most want to see the characters in their "normal" glory hehe.
Just vote for what you like! No promises I will 100 percent listen to the exact vote but it's a big influence of course.
So this week on my list:
Update posted link
Try and do 100+ renders as per usual.
Finish animations, write more.
Start Steam written page (setting up account, etc.)
So in two weeks it will be about one formal month of work and hope to be way above 400 renders since I am already at 272 now. But I try to think about the quality of writing/renders more than just pure numbers so I don't stress too hard about 400 on its own but rather 400 I like.
The images above are a split for one room between dom/sub Kane so note they're not all the same scene. Not to be too specific, but I would expect Olivia to possibly have "different choices" available to her based on her prior decisions in game.
Small Note: Anais has told me she is on track to open a Patreon page for The Quantum Academy on Feb 27th or March 6 (she wants to do it on a Friday) So I'll support and post to help out but as I said many times, I'm not doing any art for it and just helping write and she knows my time priorities!
One major character for that game will be Astrid Karlsson of course but can't really get into anything else. We have debated one specific origin a long time and I think we're both agreeing to let it go finally...it's very hard for me to give up my own story so to speak but doing it on some level...
I hope 2026 is starting off well for everyone so far! For this month, it's mostly Valentine's Day and starting up finalizing 2025 numbers for business stuff so that's most of my month other than game work! But adjust to a new life and really happy! I hope everyone has a fantastic week!
Love,
Tess
