Progress report

Sorry to keep you waiting! We finished the update today!

mj_aoigai

1. The plan is solely focusing on Chieri and Makoto right now. 3. Of course there will be reason to buy full version. I imagine the final release may not be on patreon thus you will have to buy the game to finish the story. There's also planned extras.

dbeats

I actually got three questions. I am a member in the Fanta version so I been getting the updates there. 1. Is there any plan on any different characters such as a friend or anything besides chieri and makoto? 2. Do you think you can incorporate an ideo of chieri using her powers to look more adult like? I heard you plan to have some growth so I wonder along with that you can age chieri to her adult years. I dont mind her now. Its just that she looks like a teenager and if you plan to have nsfw stuff in the future it may be...akward. 3. Since all the patrons are getting pieces of the story each month or so. When the full version is release will there be any reason for me to buy the version or the full version will be for mainly non patrons

IronWaffle

Hey guys, hope you're doing well and I'm glad to see good progress ^^ I understand you're finding the city tricky to get right, do you think anything will be available to play by the end of the month though? I know it's been hard so no worries if you can't show much :)

Spotlaight

We haven't considered adding fetishes that aren't related to size. We have a lot of feet situations because they go hand in hand with giantess stuff.

mj_aoigai

I would love an nsfw bit of game as dlc outside of steam

Donovan

The scene when you get sat on was amazing. I would love for more ways to interact with her underwear or just more close up scenes. Maybe have to try climbing up them and accidentally pull them off? Or perhaps she drops you into her underwear by mistake. Love your work so far! Keep up the good work!

nath

Hi! Love the game so far and progress is totally understandable considering the quality of the product. I just wanted to know what other fetishes you plan on incorporating in the future? You mentioned things beyond feet in another reply.

Jerry Hurscht

If that really did happen than it's probably by accident Since I seriously can't see Makoto making her grow after everything she put him through, unless he actually wanted to shrink her but something went wrong.

Daan Duijkers

I think a cool part that you could squeeze a bit of growth would be if you grab the phone from her and as she pouts you make her grow a bit. a bit of a spin but i think it would be cool to see her reaction to you making her grow.

Jeffrey Farrell

Yeah, I like shrinking too. Would be nice to see, for example, some people becoming tinier than the ohers, why not the protagonist !

I said it before, but the best part for me is the shrinking itself! (although I would lying if I didn't say very much like to see Chieri grow as well) It'll be very good if you balance whatever you want to add into the game with what you have the time and motivation to work on... expectations can be dangerous! Do your best!!

Zoey Kazuya

The others were shrunk with the town. Remember, the entire introduction is Makoto realizing that his shrinking isn't just some special effect messing with his perception. He and everyone else are ACTUALLY shrinking... be careful man, you need to realize that we're tiny too before you do anything drastic...like jumping onto a chair...

dbeats

No plans at the moment. We might do it if we create a model for her shoes, but we aren't confident that we can make something better than what other games or MMD videos have to offer.

mj_aoigai

They probably just don't notice Chieri's evil schemes. Either way we don't really plan to have them appear.

mj_aoigai

We considered something like that, but we don't know for sure if we'll go through with it yet. It might be difficult unless we find another developer.

mj_aoigai

That might be a good idea. But we might just put a disclaimer at the beginning that says the game contains depictions of cruelty. We think the vast majority of the events wouldn't do well with people who are more into gentle stuff anyway.

mj_aoigai

On a toy boat in the bath :> that be nice as hell assuming makoto is big enough for a toy boat

Ronryan

I'm getting very curious about this game. Will we have a shoe trap or sock trapping scene?

I'd like to see a bath scene but so far so good. I like the story. Its unpredictable.

RegisForza

So, there something I've been thinking about for a while… WHAT ABOUT CHIERI'S FAMILY!!! They on vacation or something, cause I doubt all the stuff she's pulled, especially shrinking the town, would've gone unnoticed by them.

Daan Duijkers

So I just replayed the part where Makoto explores the room while Chieri is gone and I thought of something… What about an option where Makoto just does nothing for 5 min until Chieri comes back! It could result in a whole alternate branch where she never got mad, as he didn't try to escape! (Came up with it by thinking about the video game Far Cry 4; where the villain just leaves you alone for 20 min, during which you're supposed to escape, and you get a whole alternate ending if you just wait out the clock)

Daan Duijkers

This is just a suggestion since I know you don't want people to be traumatized by the cruel route if they're not into it, but maybe color coordinate the text in the choices. Blue means the choice will lead to a gentle choice while red leads to a cruel one? I don't know, it's just a suggestion.

BelladonnaTheFreak

Thank you for the various questions. However, we ask that you wait until we develop the game's ending. We believe it'd answer many of your questions. The important thing to remember, however, is that our primary motivation for making this game is that we love to see giant girls bullying people and destroying cities. So there's a chance that the overall story may not live up to your expectations in this regard.

mj_aoigai

Thank you very much! Regarding your question, the reason for the various reactions in earlier parts of the game is because we originally had a different game in mind, one that was only about 1 hour long and only consisted of you solving homework and shrinking in the process. We had a lot of energy to spare to add small details like that, but we don't have a lot of it nowadays with the story proceeding the way that it is.

mj_aoigai

So ever since I played the demo myself I’ve been wondering bout the plot and Chiere’s actions and something clicked for me when I saw the bad end of we try tackling her. She still kept saying something but we just couldn’t understand her. And, after years passed from our POV, she grew us back some according to text even though she said that was the last time we will see each other. At same time we couldn’t die when the main character attempted... could it be that she KNOWS that we can’t die when tiny and that’s why she’s being much rougher? Is that why she’s okay crushing the shrunken city even when there’s people, because she knows they’d just be in pain and afraid? Is she just actually going too far because she collects energy from that fear and that’s why she’s just trying to make us way more afraid in the bad ending but just DOESN’T know about the time dilation, so she didn’t know how bad it was? That would actually explain everything and her actions, just that tiny detail of “can’t die” and that’s being the most she knows bout shrunken people, that and the fear energy?

KaiseiZero

I'm loving everything about this game so much! Really can't wait for the next update! Question: In the earlier scenes in the game, if you waited too long to do something(like not doing the homework, or climbing too slow) or looked somewhere you shouldn't, there would be some extra reaction from Chieri and some dialogue. I loved those, as they made it feel like Chieri was actually reacting to my actions or inactions. I haven't noticed any of these events in recent updates. Are there plans to add more events like that? And/or retroactively add them in to past sequences? The scene I thought for sure would have something was coming out of the sports bottle too slow. I expected Chieri to get annoyed and just dump Makoto out. Anyways, keep up the great work!

AceofSpades

The reason for the relatively simple buildings is partly due to not having the time and manpower to create anything more radically detailed, but partly because, as you say, it'd make the game run very slowly for sizes smaller than 1/1000 when the buildings get destroyed in real time. We'd also have to make the building fragments when the buildings collapse bigger, but we haven't tested that yet. If possible we'd like for all the objects to get destroyed at once with her feet or fingers, but that might be difficult to implement right now.

mj_aoigai

I've read you cited the maximum difference in size able to be done is 1/1000 relative to Chieri. Does this demo using "taller" and building models with less surfaces/unnecessary details point to an intent to have that apply to the town at some point as well in order for the game to run more smoothly (without excessive details of buildings) whilst everything is 1/1000 scale relative to Chieri?

Mark

There is more than crushing and trampling with feet already in so far.

dbeats

Next update currently planned for end of this month... You have to scroll down and read the history... a lot of brave tiny people died getting us this information...the next generation of tiny people can't forget their legacy, less they be crushed like the ones before...

dbeats

Will there be more foot fetish content in this game? like in bonus? Will there be more than crush, trample?

When can we expect the next update to be out? Cause I've been checking this place every day and it's starting to get repetitive.

Daan Duijkers

We'll add an option to swap between her school uniform and casual wear in the next update, but right now we don't have much time to create any new outfits. We might be able to create some small accessories like glasses. Personally I really like glasses so I want to make them soon. Besides that I also like shoes, but we'd have to create a special system for shoes and that's also take some time~ maybe after we've created some more of the story.

mj_aoigai

Would it be possible to add some more outfit options one day ? Also can not wait for the next update I am really excited.

Mage19

We're glad that you believe in us. We can guarantee that even if development becomes difficult in the future, we won't drop the project altogether. No matter how long it takes, we'll create at least 2 routes. If it takes TOO long we'll probably close our Patreon but we'll still keep working on the game regardless.

mj_aoigai

I’m absolutely more than fine with waiting for what you guys have planned for the future of this incredible game <3 Just the fact that progress is slowly and surely being made on it makes me so excited each and every day because I know I’ve got something amazing to look forward to <3 The fact that you guys keep going with this project keeps me going day in day out because I know it’s all going to be worth it <3 It would break my heart if development stopped completely but as things are, I honestly don’t mind one bit how long it takes, just as long as it’s happening. I totally understand how hard it is for you guys to take on such a big job but I have full faith that you can do it <3 You have my utmost support throughout this whole thing <3 From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. This game really means a lot to me (and I’m sure a lot of others too) <3 It’s very much a means of escapism for me when things get tough irl so just the fact that it exists at all is all I could have ever asked for <3 So again. Thank you <3 (Soppy, gooey post I know lol but it’s true) :P

Jonno

Does Ver0.54 not work either? If it's the first release, it might not working depending on your specs since it still had a lot of bugs. The newest version can be played from the beginning of the story and has all of the scenes from the first release, excluding the short previews. If Ver0.54 doesn't work either, please send us a private message on Patreon or an email to rmjaoigai@gmail.com with more precise details.

mj_aoigai

Sorry, but that's be nearly impossible for us to make. The closest thing we have planned is 360 degree VR videos for phones.

mj_aoigai

Probably more than 1 ending,so u can choose whether u like a good ending or a bad ending

MarineSara

Just to make sure before I become a patron, there will be a good ending, right?

KaiseiZero

I've got the Resize Me! downloaded and deleted the "!" from Read Me but it's still saying it wont play. /:

I would like to know if it is possible for you guys to release this game for Android I would like to play in my mobile phone

Abel

^^^^^So like a :height from makoto's perspective? Sort of thing yea that would be sick if they could add that

Ronryan

Seeing as the whole shrunken city portion is to make Chieri as close to a real giantess as possible... Would you guys maybe enter a extra height number besides Makoto's showing how huge Chieri is from his POV. If it's not asking too much of course...

Daan Duijkers

Thank you! We don't currently have plans for much more waist-height situations. We received a lot of requests for being squeezed by her breasts and we already actually have a bra modelled so we might give something like that a shot. We don't know if we can make something very interesting, but we'll at least try.

mj_aoigai

Around 1/1000 of his normal size is the limit right now.

mj_aoigai

Just became a Patreon and I love the game so far and can’t wait for more! Personally, I’m hoping for some more “around waist height” size play and maybe a trip into her cleavage or her bra😎

Rifty

I wonder how small he can get

Donovan

Ahhhhh oki gotcha

Ronryan

These are 7-story buildings so they're a bit bigger than the ones around them.

mj_aoigai

We're grateful for your enthusiasm. We'll work hard to make a fun game~

mj_aoigai

Thank you very much. You're right, game development does take a lot of time. Once we release the game on Steam's early access, we plan to stop posting updates here. We haven't considered DLC yet. Maybe once we finish the game depending on if we still have energy left. It'd be difficult as it is to add a mode where you control Chieri though.

mj_aoigai

Right now the quakes only happen when Chieri's walking. But it might be a good idea to add some quakes then the buildings collapse too. We want to make the building's fragments scatter as slowly as possible too but it's hard to get it just right.

mj_aoigai

So like is it just me or does she look somewhat smaller in the preview video maybe the buildings are bigger

Ronryan

Appreciate all the hard work and effort that you all put into this project. I enjoy seeing the work in progress evolving into the finished project. Keep it up and no worries at all on the delays!

Mk_35

Keep up the great work. I know that game development is lots and lots of work, as my brother would do it and spend countless hours. If this full game comes out I will definitely buy it. You should plan for some exclusive content that you do not release here -it might entice more people to buy it. :-) And maybe sell the outfits as special add-ons/or whatnot. And maybe the ability to play as Chieri even?

MerleRamay24

Maybe it's the video or the fact it's a preview build, but the timing of the quake after Chieri destroyed the building felt off... Also, maybe have the building destroyed more slowly to really show to how huge a structure it was.

Daan Duijkers

Thank you very much! We'll work hard to create something even better than these previews~

mj_aoigai

Thank you! We'll work hard on the next update.

mj_aoigai

Thank you! It's hard to get the physics right but we want to get the best possible result.

mj_aoigai

These look fantastic! Amazing job, guys. Thank you for adding the pics and CrashTest. Can't wait to play!

ChibiMann

Nice work! I can't wait to play it!

xu3333

The current city seems different than preview city and game engine may not like it. I agree though that shaking would be nice. However, the same degree of earthquake may not have to be the same all over town. It could increase severity as she approaches kinda like an impending doom situation.

dbeats

Hey both excellent work out there. One thing i noticed in preview of the city scene, Chieri will made the ground shake during the 2 initial steps. I noticed this feature was being removed in the actual scene, is it intended? Honestly i would prefer her to shake the ground throughout in the city scene to show that she's "real giant" instead of shaking the ground when she's near the camera. Its just my 2 cents worth of thought.

Looks fancy. Getting buildings to do physics stuff like that is hard, but it's impressive you're going the extra mile to add in that detail. Keep it up!

BlueGoose

服装や髪型は作るのに時間がかかるので2ヶ月に1つ作れればいい方ですね。メガネとかアクセサリーなら比較的簡単に追加できるんですけどね～

mj_aoigai

We hope you enjoy the next update!

mj_aoigai

Thank you! Sorry for the wait!

mj_aoigai

Destroying buildings takes some practice after all. Let's help her get some experience...

mj_aoigai

Thank you! We hope you enjoy the next update.

mj_aoigai

It'll be scripted. Unfortunately adding a system that allows to freely work around and survive in real time would take as much effort as creating a whole new game from scratch.

mj_aoigai

Thank you!

mj_aoigai

Thank you!!

mj_aoigai

You can view the barefoot version ingame. It's pretty hard to adjust the camera angle correctly during a stomping scene, since logically her foot should go through the camera. Being able to see a little bit through the gaps is definitely good though. We probably won't add blood but we might at least make the screen go reddish at times.

mj_aoigai

Thank you!

mj_aoigai

Thank you for the reference video! You're right, adding more smoke might make it look better.

mj_aoigai

Thank you!

mj_aoigai

Thank you!

mj_aoigai

We don't like gore too much so we probably won't add direct blood splatter.

mj_aoigai

Thank you! We'll work hard to release an update next time.

mj_aoigai

Probably a place holder

Ronryan

I notice the background is the sky and not Chieri’s bedroom wall

aHomester

Teacher outfit, skirt, high heels. Makoto is learning how to survive after all.

dbeats

Get steppyed on by her lol

Ronryan

ちえりの見た目を変える要素も追加してほしいんです

T

Excited.~

BelladonnaTheFreak

oh, by the way- if you don't mind sharing your thoughts, what are some of the alternate outfit ideas you'd like to see Chieri in?

Zoey Kazuya

Looks like this will be very much worth the wait! :)

Why is Chieri considered a respected role-model in society? Because everyone really looks up to her.

dbeats

She's a novice giant, please go easy on her!

EnricoMatassa

Oh boy, I'm REALLY excited about this one! You work so hard and do such amazing work!

Fred Fredson

Curious about the city? Will it be scripted like before or more free roam/survival?

Hargart

AWESOME!

AMAZING

MarineSara

October will have an update. September (now) is the month with no update. This progress report is in place of the update.

Donovan

Looking good! Just wish there's goingto be a barefoot version too? also in VR it feels way more realistic when u get like step on but you can still see a little tiny bit of the sides enviroment. That way u know like something above rather than just seeing everyting pitch black with just kills the atmosphere. Also in my opinion if theres gonna be blood i would rather have that as an option since i don't enjoy that myself but i know some people do.

AlexanderG

lovin it! Great work thus far!

Zoey Kazuya

Looks amazing so far

Ronryan

Awesome Work ! <3

Alex

Would it be possible to see direct crush of tiny people on the streets with blood splatter?

Crom

Is October getting an update or is that the month with no update planned?

AtomicHex

You two are doing so well! I look forward to next month's update. It's going to be AMAZING!!

Donovan
