Hey all, Bringing this dev-note a little earlier in the month this month, as I have some things to talk about. First of all, and this is sad news, but I don't see a release being out this month. I have hopes we can make a September release, but honestly I'm not going to promise that either. The size of episode 11 has honestly been a kick in the teeth, and it's been so hard to get through, but t…
Hey all, This dev-note is going to be slightly different from how I normally do it. Normally I'd post one to Patreon and then paste it over here, but a lot of things on the Patreon one were specific to Patreon this month, and there wasn't really a lot I could copy over to here, so I figured I'd start fresh. First of all, as much as I hate to do it, episode 11 release is getting pushed back a co…
Hey all, I posted this on patreon last week and totally forgot to post it here, so apologies for the delay. Work on episode 11 is well underway, and it's time once again to share brief update. I have a few updates for various projects, but I'm not going to go into some long post about everything, and I'll try to keep everything to a minimum. The Cabin - Episode 11 I'm very happy with the amount…
Hey all, Really sorry for the delay today but finally managed to get it working. I'd spent all day trying and gave up about an hour ago. Was in bed when I thought, 'Fuck it', and asked AI a quick question on my phone, and that ended up being the solution to all my problems :P If you're a dev and have to use SteamPipeGUI... Just don't! Ask AI about it and create a .bat file to bypass it; it work…
Hey all, Apologies for the delay in getting this dev-note out. I just wanted to wait until I got the last scene back before saying anything. So, we have just over a week before the month comes to an end. Will we be getting a release this month?... Honestly, I don't know. There is still a lot to do, and in terms of completion, I have scenes 1, 2 and 3 ready to go. Scenes 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 still h…
Bonjour! [ Side note before we start – I want to quickly apologise to everyone here on Steam. I often forget to check messages here, as whenever I post something ( like now ), it's normally right before I'm going to bed, and by the time I wake up in the morning, I forget Steam is even a thing : steamfacepalm : . I wish there was a way to receive notifications from the discussions of the game on…
Hey all, I want to start by quickly saying I have something going on in my personal life and won't be working over the weekend. I'll be back on Monday. I know you guys won't care and it won't affect you in the slightest, but I prefer to be transparent if I'm taking time off. Now, as for the game, there isn't much to report to be honest. This month has been one of my most productive in a long ti…
Hey all, I did post this last night, but upon checking it just now, I realised I saved it as a draft and never actually posted it to Steam. That being said, Merry Christmas ( or happy holidays ). I want to apologise for the radio silence over the last month or so too. As some of you probably know ( and I'm sure some don't ), I work full time on another game called Where The Heart Is, and over t…
Hey all, Episode 9 is finally here! Huzzah! The game has a couple of new features, and you can now delete and name your saves. There are a few more I wanted to add but sadly wasn't able to, but I might be able to in episode 10. Please find below a little change-log for this episode. Also, there are no new achievements in this update. Steam only allows a set amount, and with the game still havin…
Hey all, I was away over the weekend, and while I was away, Crab has been testing the game and came across some major issues that break the flow of the story. I hope they won't take a full week to fix it, but I'm extending it by a week just to be sure. I apologise for the delay, but I'd rather take a week to fix it than release a buggy episode.
Hey all, Quick update for you this time, without me rambling too much. All the art and writing is done for episode 9; my priority now is rendering, which is still going to take about another week, so release will be at the end of the month, but it will be this month for sure. And finally, work on Adverse Effects 2 is underway but is kind of slow going. I'm not really in a writing mood at the mi…
Hey all, Just wanted to give a quick update about this last month and what to expect in the coming months. First off, I had high hopes that episode 9 would be out this month; sadly, due to some family issues I'm having to delay it a little. I had some family problems at the start of the month, but that all died down after a week, but then last week it all went to hell again. I won't go into any…
Hey all, I realised it's been a while since I've done an update here, and truth be told, I sort of forgot. I'm going to try to do at least one development update per month from now on. I've added a reminder in my phone to remind me on the last day of the month, every month. There obviously won't be one at the end of this month since I'm posting it now... yeah. But the point of the updates is bo…
Hey all, Episode 8 is finally here. I wanted to provide a brief update before you download. We're already well ahead with episode 9, Crab has a decent amount of the writing done and I've got 3 scenes scripted out so far. If you have any issues with the game, please let me know in the discussions and as always, thanks for playing and supporting.
Bonjour, and welcome to May! As I said not too long ago, I'll be leaving at the end of this month for a week to go on holiday, so I really want to get episode 8 out before I go. I've had a word with Cheeky, and I've taken this week off from WTHI to focus on getting Episode 8 finished. Having worked on it a very small amount yesterday and ( so far ) an even smaller amount today, I'm very confide…
Hey all, I wanted to jump on real quick and give a little update for episode 8 and also do a couple of introductions as well and update as to when we might be expecting the release of episode 8. The Introductions: I'd like to introduce you to a couple of people. The first being the lovely lady in the render, Roxy. I ran a poll on Patreon with names suggested there and here, and Roxy was the win…
Hey all, I first want to thank everyone for your kind words; I didn't expect such support. I wish I could reply to everyone, but there were just so many messages, but know that I have read them all, and I truly appreciate you guys. I've never had an experience like that on the internet before, and it took me a little by surprise. I know people always say the internet is a terrible place, but I'…
The last couple of days have been a little rough and rather scary. I normally get maybe 3-5 people talking about a release, but for this one, I had probably 30+ telling me how shit the game was, how I fucked everything up, and for me to kill myself, which was honestly a little scary; I'm not going to lie. So, with that happening, I folded and did what they wanted and went to bed. Then I woke up…
After reading a lot of comments and complaints about the game, I've decided to do 2 things: · First, in terms of story, I'm not going to listen to anybody anymore. I've always had the issue of hearing 1-2 people and thinking that's what everyone wants. · · Second, I'm reverting the game back to how I want it. If you want to fuck Emi, fuck her, and if you don't, then don't. It's on YOU, not me.…
Hey all, I wanted to jump on with a little update before January comes to an end ( hard to believe it's almost over! ). I'm currently working on the last scene of the update, which I thought was a massive scene, but it's honestly not as bad as I remember. That being said, the previous scene I worked on wasn't as bad as I thought, maybe because I changed Kaydence's hair? Hard to say; I can say t…
I think I've figured out how to finally update using steamCMD and also fixed the bunker scene to have the achievements too. I'm currently unable to test on a mac though if is anyone has one and can let me know if it worked, that would be much appreciated.
Hey all, There was an issue with the launch but I've managed to somewhat fix it. I can only release on Windows at the moment until I hear back from steams customer support. I'm really sorry to any MAC users but I'll try to get it sorted asap.
Hey all, Episode 6 of the cabin is finally live. If you find any issues, bugs or anything else, please let me know in the dicussions. As a reminder, episode 7 won't take nearly as long, all the script/story is finished and the art for the first 2 scenes is also finished.
Hey all, I wanted to jump back on and give a little update on episode 6 and what we're waiting on. Right now we're in the waiting phase. Just waiting for animations to render, and once those are done, I can drop them in, add audio/achievements, and that'll be episode 6 done. There aren't a lot of animations ( 12 total ) but each one takes about 14 hours to render, and I can only render during t…
Hey all. I wanted to jump back in and provide another brief update, along with a potential release date for episode 6. The script and art have both been finished for a while, and I just finished rendering all the stills ( although going through them, a few fixes are needed ) and I also need to render the animations too. I was looking to release this month, but with the changes to previous scene…
Hey all, I wanted to start by again thanking everyone for their kind words during this difficult time. It's still pretty rough, but I can't sit around and do nothing anymore; I need to keep my mind active and get back to work, more just so it distracts me than anything else. And for those who don't know (it was posted on patreon but never mentioned here), my dad passed away a couple of weeks ag…
Hey all, Just a quick update to let you know the script work for episode 6 has been completed. Well, the pre-testing script work has been done. I still need to do the audio and achievements for Steam and find any grammar issues, but I do all those while testing, so I can't really do them just yet. As for art, it's going a lot slower than I'd like. I don't really want to give an update on the ar…
Hey all, I have a small update for you today, nothing major, but I wanted to fill you guys in on a couple things that have been happening. First off, I have decided to stop working on Nora (the new mini game). As I was reading back through the script and creating the images, I realised I wasn't really happy with the story and didn't feel it was in keeping with The Cabin, Adverse Effects, or Emi…
