0.5 Announcement
I will keep this brief and to the point.
Some messages/comments at me recently have crystallized a lot of things for me and with that in mind, I am just announcing a release date. I will have further announcements in the near future.
September 27-30, 2020 umm 2021 edit haha!
Please contact me directly here (not Discord) if you would like 0.5, but cannot maintain being a Patron next month. I will do the right thing for you.
I am sure I will be done with 0.5 before this date but this is the date I am using. So no one should expect anything before that date except as a surprise. This is also to squelch constant communication at me about this issue, so any questions specific to this issue will be ignored by me. It also allows maximum polish...just in case. It is absolutely not an exaggeration to say I am sometimes killing myself working 100+ hours a week with everything I do, so it's very disheartening if I have more stress than enjoyment dealing with this kind of thing.
I just wanted to tell a story that I wanted to create...everyone should know by now that I would almost assuredly do much better financially not doing this game. (given opportunity cost alone) So it's been a labor of love for me. I know I haven't been perfect with trying to do the game, but I've also tried to be honest and up front about everything too as I'm a Patron for multiple games and other types of sites (almost 20 overall personally, and about seven adult games), and have been on that side too, both good and bad. But maybe I need to learn some things too, and I'll try to be better.
I will also not be on Discord much as this is the main source of angst for me. I have always tried to be transparent and do my best, but I am seeing now that other devs that have warned me about certain things -- in the end, were correct.
I still appreciate and love almost everyone that has ever enjoyed the game, and I am working hard for you! :)

很性感的游戏，画风精美。希望后边有cuckold内容
Google says that this means: "Very sexy game, beautifully drawn. Hope there is cuckold content behind"
you mean sep 27-30 2021?
Lol oops, I will correct haha!
I support a couple of Developers on Patreon too, and you are the most professional and transparent of all them so far. Also as someone who is already married to his dream Domme in real life, I can honestly say you did a great job so far without having any ulterior motives! ;)
i'm sorry there isn't a :( button, because I really feel what you're trying to say..hang in there !! :) And I totally get the 100 + hours thing / "labor of love". The dangers of all game development as it turns from fun into chores/work. Whatever / whenever you do come up with it, I know we'll all be happy with it
Also, I'll just add this - there are people out there who want you to conform the game to their taste. I also want you to conform the game to my taste, but the big difference between a bully and myself is that after giving suggestions and if I I don't like where the game is going I will say "hey, this is getting too weird for me, I'm out" and a bully will try to force their vision (which they are too talentless to create themselves) on you. Most supporters are like me - if there is a personal line, we'll leave. But we'll never try to shame or bully you into accepting or rejecting any part of the story you want to tell
I agree with everything that Retromancer has said, except that I will also try something out of my comfort zone to see if I can actually stomach it after all. For example, I've discovered that I can play as a dom *IF* the girl is clearly enjoying herself. I didn't know that, before I started playing VNs. I've also discovered that, although I personally am not interested in males - and would definitely not be interested in male gay content *even if told by a domme to engage in it* - I have no problem with the notion of servicing a futa. Strange, the way the mind works! /shrug
Maybe I shouldn't say this, because I just recently started developing my own game, but-- screw it, I'm tired of this crap: You don't have anything to apologize for. There are people who participate in the AVN community who expect way too damn much. They have *no* idea what goes into making these games, what a massive time sink it is, what a huge investment it can be (assuming the dev doesn't pirate every asset they can find, and even then...!) They just want their game, they want it *now*, damnit, *now*! They have no idea how any of this works, and I think people should stop coddling them. Keep doing your thing. You're doing fine.
Please , no worries about that rude peoples and keep to work on a game that a lot of us love and we are grateful to you......just hope that next chapter is gonna be long lol;).....my best thanks for your hard work....i appreciate it a lot and i can t wait what you propose to us with the next chapter;)
well....i have no idea how could people complain about your work....i mean, they probably wish to have next chapter fast (even more because this is an adult game )....but i really do not understand how they do not understand the amount job this game required at this point...you are making an awesome game where it s good in everything, charachter, storyline , dialogues and scene plus the storyline is big....in order to could still have this quality, i m sure you need time....you could probably work faster but you ll probably ruin the story if you start to move on rush....as for everything, movie, tv series, games and similar....quality require time.....your game is awesome and i really do not understand how people could complain about it.
I agree with the people who commented before. Your game is great and just ignore these people. Your communication is good and i never felt like you were not honest with us.
Yeah, fuck anyone who tells you you're "milking" or whatever. That's just trash. The number of entitled people in this world is frankly disgusting. Your honesty is very real and shared by the creators of other games/works I support, and is incredibly important and deeply appreciated.
99% of us think you are cool and your game a masterpiece.Forget the losers.FIGHTING!
I know you won't share everything A, but I think you should. You are tougher than they even realize :(
I think you're doing a great job. Don't let negative people keep you down. 🙂
