Already getting bug reports in and most are already solved internally. Quick rundown of the known ones:
Image crop mistake on a StrongGirls Club scnee
Wrong image mistake on Naomi's first wrestling scene (vanessa)
Missing images on Hannahs side story (big goof on my part: told the build to skip chapter 7 files but I had Hannah's story inside the ch7 folder whoops!)
Cheat menu is not accessible in the current release since the unlock gate was already moved to chapter 7 which is in production.
a few locations that did not have updated art
Honestly given that I was actively building Chapter 7 while prepping a remaster of this scale, I'm a little amazed it wasn't worse. Patch is being considered but I may just bundle everything clean into the Chapter 7 release rather than risk reintroducing issues with another standalone build.
Also if you missed it, finally an android release! It's been a long long requested feature and I finally went through the pain of making all the UI elements work on Android. So far nobody has complained about small buttons so I am guessing I am in the clear. The android version ships at a compact 720p resolution and has chunky UI for touch control. Otherwise content is identical to the other versions.
Speaking of Chapter 7 I'm moving ahead good with the momentum of the remastered release.
I have a clean overview setup to go through every scene and mark them off as complete or not complete:
Example of how Hinos dates are structured. This is a huge improvement from how I've done it before. The scope is locked and organized.

Super supporter AI companion upgrades!
Other huge news this week, the in-house rendering is now on a completely new 5090 in the house. If you don't know, 5090 is a very powerful GPU which is required to run all kinds of AI renderers. The 5090 generates images and voice for the AI companions!
They send voice messages AND images!
This week for Super Supporters I released Hino as an AI companion. She still has some work to be done but she sends pics and voice messages now
Both Hino and Kaori are also on the discord now but needs more work. The discord interface seems to confuse them a lot.

Ultra Supporter StrongGirls Studio release!
Now for the big one.
This week I launched something I have been quietly building for a while and I am genuinely excited to finally have it out in the world. Meet StrongGirls Studio.
https://stronggirlsvn.com/studio
StrongGirls Studio is an AI image creation platform where you create your own StrongGirls art. And I mean real StrongGirls art. The same model. The same hardware. The exact same pipeline that generates every image in the game, now in your hands.
I have spent thousands of hours with this model learning exactly how to make it sing. Every setting, every backend choice, every parameter has already been figured out so you don't have to think about any of it. No messing with loras, negative prompts, CFG scales, denoising sliders, VAE encoders or any of that. Just buttons, prompt fields, and your imagination.
It currently has 11 girls available including the main 9 girlfriend cast plus Sora and Mika, with more being added based on feedback. The model is fully uncensored so whatever you want to create, you will never get rejected or babysat.
The Ultra Supporter community got early access yesterday and the stuff people have already made is genuinely impressive. Here is a taste:

Why is StrongGirls Studio Ultra Supporter only?
Running a dedicated RTX 5090 continuously for image generation has a real and significant electricity cost. Unlike a cloud service where you pay per image, this GPU runs in my office 24/7 to keep generation instant and uncensored with no queues and no rate limits. Keeping that available and reliable for everyone who uses it requires the Ultra tier to make it sustainable. The goal is never to gatekeep, it's to make sure the feature stays alive, keeps improving, and doesn't get throttled or watered down. Ultra Supporters are directly keeping the GPU running and that is genuinely what makes this possible.
That is everything for this Monday. A remaster out in the wild, Android finally happening, Chapter 7 moving with real momentum, Hino joining Kaori as an AI companion, and StrongGirls Studio now live for Ultra Supporters.
A lot is moving right now and I want to keep that energy going.
As always thank you for the support. It is what makes all of this possible. See you next Monday!
