Yours Truly (Narrator - incomplete)
In these las 3-4 years I had been working on a not succesful visual novel called "Trapped in a Fantasy Femdom Brothel" which had positive reviews, but not many engagement or interest (the 1 star review every 2 days in itchio for 2 years, didn't help either).
So I decided to do a short Visual Novel, a prequel of Pact with a Witch called Secret Glory Hole. I didn't want to get back to the main visual novel until I finished it, and I finally did. But why did I stop working on Pact with a Witch and worked on another vn? Firstly because It was more than 5 years working on a same single project and I needed a kit-kat. But secondly and most important, Pact with a Witch is SPANISH as original language, that means everytime I have to make an update for my patrons needs to be translated in english, so I had to pay every single month to a translator to translate and even more, 15 days before the update, give him the translations, that was not just chaotic but made it impossible to advance the development with having to fix bugs, grammar mistakes, change labels, because everything had to be translated again or I couldn't touch that because it would affect the translation... it was nuts. Now, with AI translating it (maybe not perfect, but at least understandable and I will still have a profreader help), so it opens the door to try it again and see how far I can get this new year with the game.
I don' t know if I will be able to update Pact with a Witch in Steam anymore until it's completely finished, since rules had changed, (I don't know if I will be able to finish it in 2026, but I have my doubts, Secret Glory Hole took me 2 years to do it and it has 26k words, Pact with a Witch has 500k words and is still not finished and it has much more work, minigames, illustrations, animations, etc...) but I will try to post any news on December 2026.
Good thing is I learned a lot in these last 3-4 years and finishing a project gives a different perspective on how doing things (different languages and putting voice for example, which I'm not sure I will do that on pact with a witch, it took me a lot of time in SGH, like A LOT, and it has only 3 characters, I cannot imagine it with Pact with a Witch that has MUCH MORE and is a whole different level, maybe I could do a kickstarter just for the voice acting? Don't know... Problem for a future).
In any case, I appreciate your patience and your interest. And I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2026. ^^
