Public Dev-log #9 (Patreon)

Mondays suck... but to brighten it up, I've got a fresh new dev-log for you to read and enjoy!

Let's start with a bit of housekeeping.

Chapter 4 has now been released to all tiers with early access! If you haven't grabbed it yet, or you've been waiting to pull the trigger and join as a supporter, why not now? This is by far the biggest chapter I've done yet, and it's still got one more route to go coming this weekend!

You can get it here!

If you can't support the game for whatever reason, that's totally fine. The game will always be free to play, and the public version drops at 4PM EST on July 4th!

Now, onto the Cheating Route.

The planned release date is June 27th, and that's what I'm currently working towards. If anything changes or threatens that deadline, I'll let you know as soon as I can.

This update ended up being huge. Rather than cutting content, I'd rather give myself a little more breathing room and keep delivering updates at the quality you've come to expect.

In the last public dev-log, I mentioned I was considering changing the development cycle. I can now confirm that I'll be moving to a five-week development cycle.

The plan is to release two routes every five weeks, giving me a little extra time to write, generate artwork, and implement everything properly. I'm not cutting back on content either. If anything, the overall amount of content will stay the same—it's just being split in a way that's more manageable for me to create.

To put things into perspective, the current Chapter 4 build is already over 37,000 words long and contains 11 H-scenes... and there is still more to come!

I'll be getting started on Chapter 5 as soon as the Cheating Route drops. Originally, I wanted to begin development this week, but I think that would be taking on too much at once and would only increase the risk of delays later on.

With that in mind, here are some dates for your Creamy calendar:

CH4 Cheating route - June 27th

CH4 Public release - July 4th

CH5 NTS/NTRS Super Fan Release - August 1st

CH5 NTS/NTRS Loyal Fan Release - August 3rd

CH5 NTS/NTRS Core Fan Release - August 8th

CH5 NTS/NTRS Fan Release - August 15th

Once Chapter 4 is fully wrapped up, there'll be more polls, community discussions, and a few other cool things I'd like to do for supporters as we start building hype for Chapter 5.

Fun times ahead, folks...

And for those of you who have already played Chapter 4...

You know what's coming. 😈

Sorry this one is a little shorter than I usually do lots of deving to be done this week, but I feel like this is still missing something though...

There that's better.

Take care folks!
