Hey, my dears! 💜How’s everyone doing? I hope you’re all doing well.

I’m bringing you a slightly longer dev update today to talk about some of the things that have happened over the past few weeks, as well as the release forecast for the next chapter.

First of all... ahhh. These past few weeks haven’t been easy. In the last dev update, I mentioned that I was dealing with some relationship issues, and I have to admit, it hit me pretty hard. On top of that, I went camping with two friends, and the experience wasn’t exactly great. Besides getting into a fight with one of them, and probably losing that friendship, the trip also left me with a nasty throat infection, so I ended up spending several days stuck in bed. A few other minor things happened as well, but they’re not really worth mentioning.

I’m sharing these personal things because they ended up slowing down the production of the new chapter quite a bit. To be completely honest with you, there’s a chance I may have to delay its release a little because of those things, but I’ll do everything I can to avoid that.

And speaking of the chapter... wow. Every chapter comes with its own production challenges, and this one is no different. But honestly, my biggest challenge right now is stopping myself from getting distracted every five minutes, haha! 😅

This chapter is going to be smaller, with fewer dialogues and probably fewer images, but it’s definitely going to leave an impact. Unfortunately, I can’t tell you exactly what’s going to happen, but... I can say that things are going to heat up, new kinks will be introduced, and some existing ones will be explored in greater depth. 👀🔥

Since not everyone enjoys the same things, I’ll try to include plenty of variation in the scenes, giving players as much freedom as possible to choose what they want to see and what they don’t. That said, for now, the plan is for some kinks to be unavoidable, whether you like them or not. I think that adds an enjoyable element to the characters’ corruption and also gives the game more personality.

And finally, I know many of you are probably waiting for a teaser, or maybe not, but don’t worry... the trailer plan is still on track. I want to finish more images before deciding which ones will make it into the trailer and which ones will be released as standalone teasers. Either way, I’m not too worried about that part yet.

And that’s all for now. I’m EXTREMELY excited to release the next chapter, and I really hope you all enjoy it. Thank you so much for your patience and support. Take care, everyone, and have a great week! 💜

Thanks for the update, DTZ! Sorry to hear about the issues that have come up, hope that things improve for you soon. Glad to hear the update is looking good, at the least, and I’ll look forward to playing it!

Thank you for the update, remember to take care of yourself 😊😊

Make sure to prioritize your physical and mental health! Without a healthy body and head we won't have you and without you there will be no game anyway. Thanks for the check in and take care of yourself!

Good luck DTZ👍

I am looking forward to it as well and thanks for the update. Sorry you ahve had some many issues and hope things smooth out for you. You mentioned choices. As far as choices, I don't care about having unavoidable kinks and I think ti fits perfectly. Hey its an NTS game and you have said as much from the start. It does add something to the game. The choices I like mostly are when you can determine who the sharing is done with. I always hate when some guy is an ass and you are forced to share with him or vice-versa. To me that is realistic, why would you share your girl with someone you don't like or someone who isn't respectful?

Take care of your health bro ✌️😭

First of all, thank you for this update and take care! And as my recommendation, I would suggest you to check l-theanine that could be really helpful to handle some part of stress.

DTZ Games

Thanks, man! Things have gotten a lot better already The infection is gone now, and all I'm left with is an annoying cough, but it's nothing serious

DTZ Games

Yeah, I always try to keep that in mind And actually, that's pretty much what I did instead of forcing myself to work. During those days when I was stuck in bed, I probably could have done more for the game's development, but I wasn't feeling well, and the quality of the work ends up being affected

DTZ Games

Yeah, I agree with that That whole 'bad boy' cliché who ends up with your girlfriend actually works better for NTR, and it's often way too exaggerated That's why I try to make all the characters in the game as kind as possible, which is actually pretty realistic And one thing I'm going to try to implement is giving players a choice regarding who Ana has scees with, but that's a bit more complicated because it changes the story a lot, so it probably won't be possible

DTZ Games

Thanks, brother! I took a very quick look at it, and it does seem interesting... But one thing I really want to do (and still haven't managed to fully achieve) is get back to a 100% healthy routine - eating well, exercising, going to bed and waking up early, getting out of the house, avoiding addictions and social media... When I manage to keep all those things in place, I feel SO much better, and my productivity skyrockets

DayDzen

Sounds perfect!

I will hope you can pull it off, because some of the best NTS games that I have played are when that is an option or at least being able to say no to a particular person or scene. But I understand it's a lot more work and hard to get done well. The reason I am always big about choices mattering is that it is what makes a good/really good NTS game to a great one. (just my opinion though). I will still be here as long as its good and so far its good :) As long as it remains clear that anyone Ana is shared with is just a way for her and MC to enjoy their time together more, that is the core of good NTS for me. It's when it starts to feel like another guy is becoming boyfriend 2.0 that things really go south for me. I pretty much walk away from games/novels that do that. Anyways , thanks for the update and response to my post! Keep up the good work and please take good care of yourself :)

Hey man, sorry to hear about the rough times. Life can be one bumpy road, and here is hoping to smooths out for you going forward. Take care of yourself first and everything else will fall into place!
