Once upon a time — or perhaps just a few centuries ago — there lived hermit monks who spent their lives gazing at their own navels. They stared for so long, so intently, that they claimed to see a radiant light shining from within. A mystical enlightenment born from obsessive introspection.

Well, something similar is happening here.

I’ve been staring deep into this remaster — writing, rendering, rewriting — so intensely that I’m starting to believe this story is better than the original. Stronger. Able to explain everything that follows.

Everything except Special Request itself...

That part still eludes me. So next week, I might turn off my navel’s glow and simply start coding what I already have. Maybe the missing answer will arrive once I stop chasing it.

As of now, I’ve remastered the entire intro + Week 1 until Thursday (inclusive).

That’s what I’m aiming to code in full over the coming week or a bit more. If you’re eager to preview it sooner, let me know. Otherwise, I’ll keep working until the first two weeks are fully playable.

Week 1 feels like the heaviest part of the remaster.

So many key changes happen there: reframing the inciting incident, removing overt blackmail, reworking BB’s influence into something far more insidious and persuasive. Additionally, the code itself - a new project, new GUI, etc. But once that scaffolding is solid, Week 2 should flow faster. It builds on top of this rather than reshuffling it all again.

On a technical note: rendering is still a headache.

My new RTX 5090 is powerful, yes — but DAZ Studio hasn’t kept up. I’m stuck using the old version of DAZ, without Iray preview, which means I’m often blind-rendering and correcting via spot renders… or redoing entire scenes because I couldn’t see the final result. It’s frustrating and a waste of my time.

DAZ is starting to feel like a relic from another era.

But enough ranting — thank you, all of you, for your support and encouragement.

You’ve made it possible for this project to evolve, deepen, and (hopefully soon) launch its most ambitious chapter yet.

Have a wonderful weekend.

And if your own navel starts glowing — consider it a sign.

I'm scared of the rework, not because of the renders, which will obviously be an improvement, but because of the adapted story, particularly the new BB 🤔. Let's hope it doesn't become a caricature of itself. While I don't recall all the details, I remember Laura's night of drinking and the photos taken by her "friend", who turned out to be a traitor. Those photos set the adventure in motion. I always suspected that the photos had been doctored and that Laura hadn't actually had sex that night, but had just posed misleadingly. Now, however, we'll never know. All the best for the project 😉👍!

All the conspiracy remains the same. The same event at the bar and photos also are still there. Even the blackmail atempt from Jean. You'll see it quite soon. BB is still the bad guy. Maybe even worse than before.

BB isn't as bad as he seems at first. It all depends on how we play. Next to his mother, he's an angel 😆.

Oh my, I too am thrilled AND scared. It is always a dream that only scarsly happens to see the beginning of an old foregoing visual novel to shine in a new light. Complete re-renders that bring you the quality of the late-game to the beginning? A dream! How I often feel burdened by having to replay first chapters in order to start a new game-path. But on top of it, you are scraping of some excess fat, some mistakes, blind alleys and over-exaggeration? I must be in wonderland. I remember stating one or two years ago that you hat a very good story, good visuals and all that, but I never could tell if you took your story seriously or ironically or even humorous because of some illogical, grotesque or unrelated parts. And now you are going to fix this and make your game the version it should have been from the beginning? Man, I am no soft-talker, but I am really thrilled about this. I have to confess, my real life distracted me a little from playing your game and I hesitated to play it again, also because of all that. But now, I feel like I can not wait for it to restart - what a great coincidence! But also, shame on Patreon to force you to give up hard blackmail. Ok, some of it might have been over the top and toning it down a little will do the game well. But a creator for adult fictional(!) games should not have to cut out things that are ok for movies. I just hope you can have them integrated as much as possible and as wisely disguised ;) as possible. Best luck and thank you for revisition your own visions.

He may be the bad Guy at the start. But just after a few weeks she dont care about those photos anymore, cause those pills just make her wanting everybody who want her m,and she is doing stuff on her own thats way worse than the pictures. Sham there is more or less only the cheating route because of the Blackmail of her,over such a small thing(if you look at what she do later on) it had been better if she would not become a whore because of those pills and instead she had to do the Special Request or else the would go for her husband to protect him. Right now she do way worse just to protect herself and her career and nothing else. And when can all see how she will end up,and after all this its not with the husband. I dont mean it as hate. Cause i like the game and your work. I just think its a shame the the pill thing is forced so she is more og less forced to be a slut. It would have been better if the choice was more or less to corrupt her the natural way because of Heavy blackmailing and forcing to do stuff to protect her husband. Just fik that her turning in to a slut should come a more Natural way but not liking it a first and then more an more corrupted just does it naturally without any help from a pill. And maybe make BB and others force her to start changing appearances with tattos,piercing,breat enlargement and so on. Og course as choises or special Requests. If some of the stuff i would like in the game already is in there. Then maybe i just not have seen that route.

It has never been because of the pill..

I’ve always thought the introduction to this game was among the best. I love the graphic, I love how Laura (the MC) looks. But how the story begins is just epic. A good wife goes to her friend’s bachelorette party, have a few drinks, and end the night being gangbang by the male strippers. Epic. I didn’t like that she was drugged though. I prefer corruption stories, where the woman submit to her inner desires and lust on her own. I would love this story to be about that drunken “mistake”, then Laura’s guilt, follow by her inner demons (sexual drive, lust, desires) resurfacing because of that night, and her falling into the corruption path. I know that’s not the story Nemieg is telling, just telling what I would have liked. Warning though, and I will never report any games, but blackmail and rape is HIGHLY against Patreon rules.
