Yo, 

So here's the public free version of the much anticipated v0.17.2. For those of you that haven't gotten a chance to play this or were unable to support on the Patreon site, I'm gonna recommend that you take it slow.  This update is heavy as hell and there's a lot that happens so don't just speed click through stuff if you want to actually enjoy it. Also, replaying it helps-- you'll understand later. It took me about 2 days to really process things and I helped write the thing.

In general, this one speaks for itself. It doesn't need an intro. Enjoy the rollercoaster, folks. This one hits like a truck.

Change Log v0.17

-Massive story addition and completion of Chapter 8 as well as the conclusion of Part 3 of the story. Sorry about the cliffhanger... don't hate me

-All new images in this update are now rendered in 4K UHD quality and converted down to 1080p. This should result in enhanced image quality of all the new images added in this update ONLY. All future images will be rendered in 4K as well. This should also not affect the game size either. So those who previously were downloading the full edition as opposed to the crunched edition actually have better image quality now than they previously did with 6 gig file size.

-Modified dialogue choices in cafe in Day 1 conversation to prevent references to Zack being gay before he tells Braden he may like the D.

-Corrected spelling errors but probably still missed just as many

-Slight wording change in post-park conversation to clarify "first kisses." For those confused, the park kiss was Zack's first kiss and Braden's first kiss with a dude.

 

Change Log v0.17.1

-Image and typo fixes

Change Log v0.17.2

-Lots of typo fixes

-Slight rearrange of dialogue in the final car scenes on the way to the beach to improve the conversational flow at the suggestion of a supporter

-Corrected a beach CG where Zack and Mikhail's shorts suddenly changed from trunks to their normal outfits during the beach intro conversations

-Made adjustments to the beach activity choices. There was a continuity error here where, based on the order of your choice, certain objects appeared in game before they were retrieved. The order has been reworked while still allowing the player to choose which beach activity they want to do first

Finally got to play/read/get through this. Happy I waited till I had the correct time. As usual amazing but now I hate that I have to wait for more too bad you cannot get enough support where this is updated weekly LOL due to having a massive TEAM helping you put this together. Again props to you for hitting ALL the EMOTIONS ......I like to say more but do not want to Spoil anything for those who have not played this as yet. THANKS AGAIN FOR WHAT YOU GUYS DO FOR ALL OF US WITH THIS.

Do you know when we'll have other love interests that aren't the twinky roommate? Someone bigger? (No offense meant to anyone)

Haha at the "don't hate me" cliffhanger. You know Aaryn, it is something I have come to expect with cliffhanging ever since that smile on Braden's face before the card game. You know we love ya and your storytelling ways. Can't wait to download this version and play. Thanks to you and Jake, and Blayke (hope I'm not omitting other team members) for coming out with the new update.

Joenas

Okay with spoiler.......I actually caught myself getting mad and flicking the screen when Zack did nothing to help find his man...funny now but was not then if I was a character at that moment I wanted to beat his ASS..... but later on he made up for it. .... hence why I stated you hit ALLLLLLL EMOTIONS AGAIN. GREAT JOB...

Joenas

Oh I got it as it happened, and in the manner that you state. I get you 100% but it still pissed me off LOL..... And that is not a bad thing. Actually later I sympathized with/for him due to exactly the same reason you gave based on the History you have shown of his thoughts and actions.

Joenas

What are you gonna do when someone wants to produce this as a TV series a Streamed Series? I could see this on Nexflix, Hulu etc. This is better that most of the dramas produce for TV or Streamed.

To me, what defines a good story is how much I fear what's coming next. I can't even remember the last time I've felt so many emotions with a story. This is some really good writing. I've been silently following the progress you made since one of the early versions, but this one got me so hard I had to say something. That cliffhanger will be stuck in my head for a really long time and I can't even describe how much impact this story has in my life, thank you for this, I'm looking foward for the next update and I hope I can find a way to support you until then.

Yes, I'm still alive and kicking and lurking :P It's a great update, I will not comment on everything, just my main observations. SPOILERS ahead! - Braden looks very cute with the glasses. "Dork" would be the negative way of saying it, I prefer to say "intellectual". And "intellectual" turns me on. It's superficial of me, even if in a positive way. In truth, it shouldn't and doesn't matter. - Mikhail's stayover. That was so lovely. He was allowed to stay. That was the ultimate sign/proof that he is part of the "inner circle" now. - The "curve". LOL. Well I was expecting WORSE. Far worse. I was expecting an angle of like 90 degrees or something xD It was so harmless, just like the glasses are harmless. But of course, both are a sign of feeling insecure (when there is actually no reason to from the outside) - Zack frozen when Braden had disappeared. I would have used this in a different way. I do not know what's up ahead in the story. I would have used this as the ultimate, last, final trust issue before their happy end. If Braden's trust in Zack had been shattered by this - then Zack would have had to work for months to regain Braden's trust. Then the swimming pool scene at night would have been such a greater payoff. It was still amazing though, of course!! For my liking it was a bit too easy and too fast how Braden was able to get in the pool AFTER such an incident (even if Zack hadn't been frozen). - The Fire. It didn't shock me. At all. Everything they need was outside of that building: themselves. Everything that is burning are just things you can replace. The fire cannot destroy their relationship nor their memories. It's just up to them to realize that. So for me, the fire really is just an inconvenience. It's a matter for the insurance, really. If Mikhail was in that building, which I doubt, I'm gonna stop ever playing again :P Please, don't do that. - Max and Mikhail. WELL. Yes and No. If Mikhail gets over Zack too easily and too fast that could diminish his GREAT SACRIFICE (TM). Those were my main thoughts. And in the sense of criticism they are just nitpicking. Your story, your game has achieved such a depth. And it is so rich and full and speaks to me on so many levels. I couldn't praise it highly enough. I appreciate a lot how this game casts a light on the issue of feeling insecure and social anxiety. There is always so much more to a person than you can see from the outside. One last thing, and I am serious: How can you even see undercurrents and what are you supposed to do when you see one?
