A Brief Check-In

Hey everyone,

Just a quick update to let you know I’m still here, working steadily in the background.

The Patreon will remain paused until the remaster is ready, as promised. I know the long wait is frustrating...

Dev Diary #15 - New friends [Platinum Preview]

Remember these two?

Pan and Ake barely had presence in the original release - just standard designs that felt dropped in.

Well, they've gotten quite the glow-up, and for good reason... From basic black-hair NPCs to fully realized ch...

Dev Diary #15

Hey everyone,

 As promised, I wanted to give you all an update before I head out on a work trip.

I've been pushing hard to see how much I could accomplish before leaving, and while I've made significant progress, I haven't quite...

Very quick update

Hey everyone!

Just a quick check-in to keep up with the biweekly updates - a more detailed post is coming in a couple of days, but I figured a brief note now might be helpful.

Wrapping up the remaster has been a huge, intense effort, w...

Dev Diary #14 - Creepin' Closer to Release! 🎃

Hey everyone!

First off - Happy early Halloween! 🎃 To celebrate the spookiest day of the year, our favorite trickster Ari has all the attention. Because let's be honest, who better to embody the Halloween spirit than her? 😈

Desp...

Dev Diary #13 - If I Say "It's Close" One More Time... [Tracker Edition]

Hey everyone,

"Maybe the real NTR was the delays we experienced along the way." 😅

I know, I’ve been saying "it’s close" more times than I'd like to admit, and trust me, even I'm starting to cringe when I type it. B...

Dev Diary #12 - Cat-ch You Looking [Platinum Preview]

I wanted to share a sneak peek of one of the new early CGs from the remaster with you all. While working on the remaster I noticed Day 1 was light on visuals and I felt it was a great opportunity to add more depth to the story and the characters.<...

Today is a special day🎂❤️

Hey everyone! Today marks a huge milestone!

It's been one year since the original release of the game! Not only am I celebrating this anniversary, but I also celebrating having 400 supporters. When I started this Patreon, I never imagined r...

Dev Diary #11 - Perspective is all you need [Platinum Preview]

In this remastered scene, perspective is everything.

I won't spoil the immediate follow-up - you'll have to wait for the full reveal to see what happens next. This is one step before the original CG!

(While I'm excit...

Dev Diary #11 - Countdown? More like count-tease 😅

Hey everyone!

No, this still isn't the release post - but I promise, it's simmering!

For context, the last countdown update took 17 days and still felt rushed. 0.5.0 and 0.5.2 were very different - that's the kind of rushed relea...

Dev Diary #10 - This is not a tease... this is a behind-the-scenes diary

Hey everyone!

No, this isn't the release post yet - that's still cooking, but I promise not to let it burn 😉this is just some random bits of info that you might find interesting (but feel free to ignore!)

This is a controversial to...

Dev Diary #9 - This is not a dev diary... this is a spoiler diary

Hey everyone,

I did promise a tease CG from the upcoming update... this is likely the last teaser before release 😉

Final steps of development are going well, though juggling game dev with a busy life means it's taken longer than I...

Dev Diary #8 - The Final Countdown to 0.6.0

Hey everyone,

While some of you might be anticipating another dev diary, today’s update is a bit different—it's the final countdown to the release of 0.6.0!

I’m happy to share that I'm finally happy with the overall script, struc...

Dev Diary #7 - [Platinum CG]

Ayumi is getting comfy in the taxi, and MC is getting... well, let's just say he's enjoying the ride. Who needs a scenic route when you've got a teasing girlfriend and a strategically-placed toga?

Don't worry, the taxi driver is totally obli...

Dev Diary #7

Hello everyone,

Back to regular Dev Diaries, I want to take a moment to share some context behind the recent delay and what’s been happening behind the scenes.

Initially, my goal was to release in July, anticipating a busy August for...

Quick Small Update

Hey everyone!

While I hope to have better news very soon I just wanted break radio silence to let you know I'm alive and well! I apologize for the delay in the countdown post. Between life responsibilities and a lot of back-and-fo...

Dev Diary #6 - [Platinum CG]

What do you think Ayumi is feeling in this moment? What do you think changed, one frame to the other? I wonder what they talked about 👀

Dev Diary #6

Hello everyone,

It’s time for another Dev Diary, and these past couple weeks have been crazy!

This one’s a bit special - it’s the last one before the next big release. The next time you hear from me, I'll be making the post for ...

I-is this really happening? [Platinum Non-canon CG]

Non-canon saucy image.

Started as a test image for the new process and just decided to go a bit further with it. It's all about that base-sketch + post-fix magic but the rendering is looking solid in my (very biased) opinion. The thick lin...

Dev Diary #5 - [Platinum CG Hint]

The cast goes to the beach for a session of Haikyu!!🏐🌴🌊

It's just a volleyball on the beach. So surely nothing will happen at a simple game of beach volleyball? Right?

Dev Diary #5

Hello everyone,

It’s time for another Dev Diary, and these past couple weeks have made me wear quite a few different hats

As expected, a portion of my time has been dedicated to refining the model further. It wasn't quite there a...

Dev Diary #4 - new tech [Platinum CG Early Samples]

[WORK IN PROGRESS]

Not final version nor the most complex examples but getting this type of resolution previously would be impossible without all kinds of weird artifacts.

The other big thing is character interaction and scene understa...

Dev Diary #4 - new tech

Hello everyone,

It’s Dev Diary time! These past weeks have been quite different from the usual narrative-focused updates. Instead, I have dived deep into the technical side of things.

The shift began with some necessary revisions (Pl...

Dev Diary #3 [Platinum CG Scrapped/Dropped Scene]

Originally the intent was to have Terrace give a massage to Ayumi as their 'first time they touch'.

There was a fair amount of work put into these CGs but ultimately the quality wasn't there and it didn't fit the narrative.

From an art...

Dev Diary #3

Hello everyone,

It’s that special time again – Dev Diary time! I'm excited to dive into what’s been happening behind the scenes and share some of the news.

Here’s the latest:
