Dev Update! (Patreon)

Hey guys!

It’s been a while since my last update, so I wanted to be honest about what’s been eating most of my time lately.

When I planned V0.11 (and you already played the first part), my original plan for the second part was the full bar night event, plus three or four scenes that follow it. You already saw previews of some of those, like Ann, Joe, MC, and another one I don’t want to spoil for people who avoided the tech demo stuff. I also had two more scenes planned, but I’d rather keep those as a surprise for now.

So what happened?

I kind of did the classic “bit off more than I can chew” thing.

The bar night is a big interactive scene with a lot of characters in the same place. Ann, Alex, Vanessa, Jenny, Emily, Joe, Chris, and more depending on your route. You can talk to everyone, and each one has her own mini activity and progression.

And because it’s me, I couldn’t just make it “talk, then leave”. Every choice needs to matter, and a lot of choices affect each other. Even when I try to keep it self contained inside this one event, I still have to check your previous flags so the night makes sense for your path.

From a coding and writing perspective, it’s a lot. I can spend hours just to push forward one small segment, because it needs to work for multiple states.

Another part of the struggle is the bar setting itself. It’s a public place, so it’s harder to make every girl’s route turn into a full sexual scene without it becoming repetitive. Yes, there’s the alley and the public restroom, but if I repeat the same “take every girl there” structure, it gets boring fast. I don’t want it to turn into the same exact loop for every girl.

The awkward part is that I’ve already spent so much time on this scene that I now have a much clearer picture of what I should’ve done differently. But I’m already too deep into it to restart from scratch, so the only option is to push through and finish it properly.

Why am I writing all this?

Because I believe in transparency. I’d rather you know what’s happening behind the scenes than just see silence and assume nothing is moving.

Spoiler section

If you want a tiny peek at the type of things in the bar night, here are a few examples.

Body shots and drinking challenges, with different reactions and different requirements per girl.

Dance routes that change based on relationship states, jealousy, and your previous choices.

Because it’s a big bar night and it has NTR potential, some random guys might take interest in the girls too 😉

The alley is still a thing (what you already saw in the alpha)

Even with this spoiler section, I still want to keep some things as a surprise, so I’m not listing everything.

That’s it for now. I’m just pushing through it step by step until it’s done.

I hope this post didn’t scare you. You’re supporting me and the project, so it would feel wrong not to give you the full picture of what’s going on behind the scenes.

Thanks for sticking with me.

Cheers 🍻TTrick
