Content

Something I tend to think of often and worry about as I keep working is the length of the days.  I'm sure many of you have noticed a huge change over time in how much content goes into a single day.

With the arrival of you-know-who soon, I'm thinking about mixing up my formula a little (in more than just day length, so expect other questions too!), and I'm curious to know...

How do you feel about the length of the days during the updates generally past around Day 20 (For example, any updates I made during this year)?  They are roughly around 11000-13000 words on average.

I know some scenes seem drawn out, and I can get wrapped up in a moment, so I'm curious to hear what you guys think about length (of the days, folks)!

2026-09-06 00:00 Overall I feel it’s about right, and it’s okay to have a day feeling shorter than others. I feel it makes the game feel more realistic in that aspect.

Days should be exactly as long as you need them to be. I’ve never thought a day was too long or too short

I personally think you've reached a good rhythm / balance with the overall length of days. To me personally, none of the days feel dragged out, but I'm also someone who can happily read for hours too. But I will say none of the days have ever felt "Oh... That was too short". Though some may see things as too short, especially if you look at it from the sense of those of us who have followed it on a day by day update for a long time but that's a natural feeling really.

I feel they have been just about right. The only need for more is just the usual feeling anyone gets, especially from such a wonderful visual novel as this. And past day 20 the more you get to know someone the more you hangout and that seems right for the days to have longer content vs the past days. Keep up the wonderful work!!! It's one of the most exciting things I look forward to every month!

From the three guys I’ve played so far, I think the days have had a good pace, growing longer as you learn more about them and as any drama picks up, or shorter as the boy is busy and the MC doesn’t have anything else going on. If anything seems too short, it’s the amount of time overall, I wish I had another 30 days with Papa Bear! 💙 Haha, but nah, you’re doing amazing and I’m loving every minute!

"You know who" is "that" something about the previous post or I did I miss something important?? Also about the length of the days, honestly I feel ok with it. As much is bittersweet to realize: it's not going on for long for each route alone. So you're giving me what I want to see, wrapping up the last unsolved things and a lot of quality time with the boyfriend-o As much you're filling me my heart as you're doing, please keep going Dyne, just do what you do

I just like hanging out with the guys. Longer days are better in my opinion

I personally think what you've been doing is perfectly fine. Some days might seem too short but it's rare. But my overall opinion is unchanged, you're doing just fine, no need for unnecessary changes. Perfect example (wedding day aside) was our day with a certain lion and repairing an old friendship. The days are either jam packed with content, fully lengthened, or sometimes short with plenty of interactions that make it great. So as Goldilocks would say, it's just right

Peterwolf

Hey Dyne, I Personally think you have the day content portions right, now. Sure days seem a little short , that's because we love the characters so much and want to see and know more. Compared to other VN's (yeh sorry I'm cheating on you) You're giving us two Updates a month others give one and If that. And that's a hell of a lot of work from you're end and I and I assume everyone else is Grateful to the amount of work you put into this. I cant wait for Daddy two's route to start, he should be so much fun, But I get the feeling I'm going to feel guilty, after playing with everyone else.

I can only think of 1 or 2 days throughout the entire development where I directly thought "that was a little too short". You have a good length I think but I, like anyone else who really enjoys this VN, would like more content I think. That is more of a selfish wish though more than an actual criticism.

Carson

I've always felt that the day length was just right. Short or medium ones for little things and normal days and long drawn out ones for the big events (like Harold and Chester's dates or similar). You have a good grasp on how long each thing should be.

DualSoulSyndrome

Compared to other VN projects that are in development, your updates feel just right.

Wuffings

Honestly, it's usually felt about just right. But when it boils down to it, can you ever have enough of any of them?! Put my vote down for too short!! <3

Sammon Levik

I think it makes sense in the context of the narrative for more days to be filled with more and more content as the one progresses further into the relationship. Besides, usually the most content filled days tend to be weekend days or weekend events. Most of the week days still go by as expected, unless there's a specific plot related event. So it is a good balance.

Quick question. Will Chester or Darius ever be the Bottom?

GEORGE

I enjoy the length of days especially when you get caught up in the moment, and I would love to see more of that.
