Status Update
Hey everyone,
as I mentioned in the original post for The Ares Fall:
“If you are curious about future game updates, the rough order is The Ares Fall, then Hitomi Fan route. I will make a separate post later once I decide for sure.”
So yes, the next update in line will be the Hitomi Fan Route.
For those who are here mainly because of Ares and may not know, I just want to say that this kind of switch (a Hitomi update instead of Ares) will be a very rare occasion, probably only once or twice a year.
Also, I’ve seen the results of the voting regarding the Ares save system, and I heard you. I need some time to rework it. I also want to add a gallery and a mini-game skip feature in the next update, so there’s simply more technical work than usual right now.
So honestly, the timing of the Hitomi route probably worked out pretty well, because Ares would have needed a bit more waiting anyway. My main job still hasn’t really become much lighter yet, but I should be able to release the Hitomi update closer to the end of May.
Then around the middle of June I’ll finally be going on vacation from my main job. Most likely I won’t really be traveling anywhere, or if I do, it’ll only be for a very short time, so I should have a lot more free time at home to focus properly on Ares.

Thanks for the update, i'll rejoin next month when it's back to ares. I don't envy you when it comes to the saves. Personally i didn't like the way it saved at first, but then i saw how easy it was to know there were other scenes, so i got used to it,and enjoy the save system. Now i guess it will just be a save system, and you will have to have to just figure out if you missed another scene like other games. Unless there is another screen that shows paths took, and can go from the branch you missed. But whatever way you come to save, good luck, it's a big task.
I’m still considering some options. I’d like to keep the old save system in a certain mode, but supporting both systems might become a hassle. We’ll see how it goes.
absolutely crazy
