Hi!

As always, work on This time has continued through the past week and steady progress is being made.

I am still working on the renders for the present scene which will include some lewd content between our MC and Sarah. It's the first time in the game we are using the tracked 'relationship stats' to gate off content. In this scene, if you don't have your relationship with Sarah inside the green area, then she won't make the conscious decision to get involved in the lewd content. We feel there have been plenty of point adjusting choices up to this point to allow the choices to begin to have an impact. Don't forget though, there are multiple difficulties you can play the game on, so those of you wanting an easier time can choose easy mode.

Scene 1 - 75% (was 90% but we just extended it) - Note: includes optional Depravity lewd content
Scene 2 - 90%
Scene 3 - 50% - Note: includes Nudity
Scene 4 - 60% - Note: includes Lewd content
Scene 5 - 20%
Scene 6 - 70% - Note: includes Nudity

We have scripting for other scenes done also, but we aren't ready to begin working on those scenes just yet.

We are still targeting the below dates and whilst we don't know how many of the above scenes will be complete in time, we are sure you guys will love what we have for you.

5th June - 2 weeks early release to VIP DLC holders and certain Patreon tiers.
19th June - Full release to all steam players.

That's it again for this week guys. Check out the sneak preview posts on Patreon if you are too excited to wait and I'll speak again soon!

When I stepped in to rescue this project, I made a promise to the community: I wanted to make Part One completely free for everybody. Well, that time has officially come!

It tells the Steam algorithm to boost the game's visibility, which in turn helps increase funding and resources for future development. So please, if you can, take a quick second to wishlist it! Reminder: Chapter 4…
