Development Progress (1/29/2023) (Patreon)

Chapter 17 is now 50% complete! 

The lesbian version of the strip poker scene has been mostly finished, with the straight version of events currently underway. I decided to give Haruka a different hairstyle for this encounter, as her dressing up for Rita (so as to not lose to the other two girls) was a fun way to write her role here. 

Regarding the mixed (2 girls, 2 guys) version of this scene, Violet will be joining Rita in her strip poker night! Due to various feedback since last month's poll, I'm strongly considering adding an extra version of this scene, where the player can choose to invite Haruka instead. Ultimately, this will depend on how much development time remains, but should the Haruka version fail to make it in time for this release, I'll be including it with Chapter 18 instead. 

Additionally, I've spent a couple days redesigning the UI, which you can see some examples of in the pictures above. In particular, the new textbox should help with visibility, so that players no longer need to press 'H' to see behind the textbox. I've also redesigned the main menu screen (to look more modern), added an animated effect to in-game choices, and much more.

A new feature, allowing players to add custom notes to their save files, has also been added. This should prove tremendously useful for tracking multiple playthroughs. 

Some other improvements, such as the new stats screen, will also be coming in the Features Update later this year.

(As a side note, the first teaser for my second project will be released to the Premium (and above) tiers next week. A second teaser, following the Chapter 17 release of Casual Desires, will be available to all Patrons.)

I hope you look forward to Chapter 17! I'll have much more to share soon. :)
