A lot of work!

I like the MC Char i would love to see him whit a beard . Think about it ;3 please

kuroBaraYue

Wait, the main character is taller than Darius? Aw... I'd love to see him as tall as him, or slightly taller at most.

The updates to art etc are great for me though Spencer's head seems small? I dunno. Anyway my only pet peeve is the old skip button is missing so I can't go through old days as easy to see new lines. It was much simpler to see what I've missed with it when it would pause the text and grey out skip lol. All in all, a minor complaint, but a great update. I like how Spencer's route is heading, and seeing all his insecurities.

Gaffgarion

That's so nice

Hal is also human. They just coexist in this universe.

Tipmon

is the character next to Harold the MC? if so why is he human I thought everyone in the game was some sort of animal or is that just a stand-in? Either way, I love the updated looks and can't wait to see how the game progresses, keep up the great work!

I love that Richard is really getting the "southern daddy" style treatment. I love how the highlights look on them, I definitely think that is the way to go. One thing I am not sure that people mentioned but Dozer, in particular, looks a bit top heavy to me. Is that just me? Anyways, great work!

Tipmon

Haha, size difference is definitely a plus. Thank you too!

DyneWulf

"Disgusting" is pretty harsh.... I like the way he looks! It's nice to be able to put a face on our player finally. I personally would have liked for him to be a bit shorter, though. However, I suppose that's probably just me thinking that. Size difference is super hot to me :P

I think you'll really like how it looks when you see everything put together :) things are looking great!

DyneWulf

Sorry you feel that way, but myself (and many others) really like his design. For those that don't like his design or want to self-insert, there will be means to do so in the future.

DyneWulf

The mc is disgusting. Many will agree that the translucent dummy was much better.

So impatient to got the update :D (and so impatient to got money to give some >< ) It's just my opinion, but I prefer flat design of the characters, something disturb me a little bit with the lights (only with Hal and the other one I forgot the name, maybe due to the size of the pictures). Sure, add light give more details, but here, especially for the second characters, it's more like...stains... I don't know >< (or maybe I'm just jealous because I'm so bad to add lights and shadows on my draws :/ )

Arkenophas

oh man i cant wait to see the now update on the game ... im so excited

bloodylion

Thanks you! HAha, I dunno about harem routes just yet XD

DyneWulf

That's great to hear x3

DyneWulf

Thanks so much!

DyneWulf

It's possible!

DyneWulf

i like the way things are going whit GerBear n,n Dyne your doing it great too and I'm recomending you to every one i know to support this project... by the way now you can fit more chars on screen that mean you will be able to make some Harem routes too is'nt it?

kuroBaraYue

This is so cool x3 I can't wait to play this I love the artwork also the novel I love it I can't wait I'm really happy for you x3

leo Anthony Murillo

awesome!!! i don't know what to say...i'm pseachless, cause i'm happy really happy i jumped around my room in happiness, my mother enter and say " why are u jumping around???" i was so happy to this changes!

Won't to add doing the Coach story at the part with u helping putting things in box's then that's it.

Bigerbear

Hey question how many days are the in total right know. New to this novel love it but I downloaded 1.50 and want to know if 1.52 add more because tried to download over 1.52 over 1.50 on my Android and it won't let. Could someone help me out plz?

Bigerbear

Possible suggestion: When they are having dinner or sitting at a table, since you can now fit more than one character on the screen, perhaps instead simply reading it, you can show it with awesome new artwork! :)

Gil

SAME, replaying all the routes under the new backgrounds and new character design sprites will feel like a different game in some ways. we're bound to restart all the routes anyways with all these drastic changes in the game's code anyways ^ ^"

Hyou Vizer

I'll be happy if the new update has nothing new except a lot of the rework and new art. I'm liking the new art! I can't wait to see how it all turns out.

Talsen

There's already been a few hints dropped in some of the routes that he's human anyway since he has made comments in the realm of "If I had a tail." etc etc

Naesaki Ashwell

I'm curious since canon MC is optional. does that mean there'll be slight text differences for areas that hint at MC being human? or is that a simple of case small immersion breaks that can easily be ignored by the reader?

Emmanuel Greene

Love the changes and how far you've come <3 <3

I’m so excited for the new art! Can’t wait to seem them in the game. Although as a Spencer fan, I may have imagined Spencer taller than the MC in my head but that’s just me. Besides that I honestly seem to like this art better since I get to see the characters being more open in their posture and they seem them less restricted like how they were before. Great job Dyne and CaptainGerBear!

It really does add to the characters! It's looking so great~

DyneWulf

He's really digging in, and I have a lot of faith in him to follow through to the end. He's really doing an amazing job so far, and I expect it to keep going :D

DyneWulf

Thank you, thank you! I'll definitely try take my breaks ;3

DyneWulf

Thanks you!

DyneWulf

It's really gonna bring a whole new feel to the visual novel!

DyneWulf

Definitely a slow process, but it's gonna look so great once it's all there.

DyneWulf

HAha, well thank you for sticking around!

DyneWulf

Ger did a great job with the UI changes :) Thank you!

DyneWulf

Please wait to see the final product.

DyneWulf

UI changes looks good and having more characters on screen is nice. However: #savechesterschest

Rahal

I'm loving the styling of the new UI, Dyne. Being able to comfortably fit more characters will allow for more complex scenes, too, so I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with from here. <3

Carson

Holy Shit this is such an improvement. Can't lie I was very skeptical about the change in artist and the characters not facing you but this looks really damn good. All the characters look great too. If anything I think Darius is, not that it looks bad in fact I'm sure we'll see scenes that match expression perfectly, but should have a more neutral expression. Mad props to GerBear and I'm glad you decided to do those highlights. This is gonna fucking big I'm staying till I go bankrupt.

Alex

Wow, these look awesome! Though it will be hard to slowly put these in, it will be worth! I can't wait to see these in-game. Great work from you and GerBear!

Keidin Garcia

so the new design fits his personality to some extent then huh >:P

Hyou Vizer

Overall amazing work!!!!! Can't wait for the swap of everything <3 Ahh I do hope you don't keep this Darius... Many of us dislike the new design :3 He looks evil and bitter X_X

Tangakwunu

That would be awesome

ToshiPanda

Everything is looking great, However I want to ask. Will there be the options to turn off the MC Sprite? He is nice looking and all just not how I envision myself personally when I play. Keep up the great work as always :D

DarkWire

Keep up the great work. Might wait till all the art is in place till I start reading again. Give me a refreshed and new feeling with the story and art when I start back.

Antonio

Looking very good so far :3

I have to admit, I had my doubts at first, but now seeing this. Everything is coming together better than I intentionally expected...far past my expectations. Amazing job turning some bad news into something incredible....Or as I usually say making the best out of an undesirable situation. Amazing work as always and keep up the great job! Just make sure not to push yourself too much, make sure ya rest up~

Kevinsora

A lot of work, for sure, but we'll keep working hard!

DyneWulf

Thank you! We'll definitely keep doing so :)

DyneWulf

This upcoming update (March 1st) should only be a single route, but after that, I aim to be back on track with double routes, and I'll just be working in the content bit by bit.

DyneWulf

I can't wait to show him off fully dont too ;3

DyneWulf

It seems the games is progressing well with the changes, the hope being that the art transfer isn't too difficult in the end. I think we all have our fears, but it will take the first demo with CGB art involved to truly know anything to improve upon. My real fear is whether we can hold onto CGB for the length of the project. He has had a consistent source of employment outside of this project, if difficulties occur the last thing I would want to see is another leaving the project artist.

Nemakalia

Glad that the highlights were added in, as I must agree on them adding a new level of detail. Not just that, but it brings some more life to the cast, as the highlights show the existence of lighting. Can't wait to see more from you and CGB!

Every thing looks amazing now! My only concern is coach design, he needs that big belly and not just a muscle gut. Thats just my opinion though.

Bunnylover

Sounds like you have so much work ahead of you. But it'll all be worth it to see it all come together. Can't wait to see what you've accomplished.

Hehe, I certainly appreciate that. It's a lot of hard work, but it's really paying off!

DyneWulf

Thank you!

DyneWulf

wow! this actually look pretty well! It notice all the hard work, good job Dyne, keep on the good work!

Bad Shade

Looking good! I'm still a little weary about Maria but I'll wait and see like you've said before. I have to ask, though, since it sounds like you're planning to slowly pick away at the rework while adding new content on are we going to get only 1 character updates for awhile? This isn't a complaint, if that's the case, I just want to know what to expect.

Riss

OMG! And in that book that I wrote, I forgot to mention! 1280x720 (Personally, I'd love 1920x1080 or higher.. personally xP)? Wooot! Hot damn! Holy smokes! Holy mackerel! Yeeeeeehaww! Well, I'll be... Great horny toads! and every other exclamatory phrase you can think of (both printable and non-printable!) AWESOME! Finally, something to fill up the 4K's! xoxo

Taimaishoo

I think everyone is hitting it already, so all I have to say is I LOVE it, and that unfinished MC sprite is totally hot too! ;-)

Jay Paul Mayer

Wow! I don't know if I can add anything to what's already been said by the previous posters. When I first read of the upcoming changes, I admit, I was skeptical. When you've read through the story and replayed it for the different routes, you become familiar with the personas of the characters involved and love them or hate them, they are what you know. One's own imagination helps a lot with that. For example, Hal looks exactly the way I imagined he would but I imagined him with a closer cut beard and a little bit of hair. xD I was one of those that when I first saw the new Maria, I didn't like her. I too, thought she put on some weight and her face, to me, just didn't quite look like herself. I have a Seal Point Siamese (We are Siamese, if you please. We are Siamese, if you don't please. Am I showing my age yet? xP ) and I kept saying to myself that the new Maria looked nothing like one. As well as I thought Darius' muzzle was too long. Again, this goes back to one's own imagination filling in the gaps. This is a good thing. Whereas a story needs to be detailed for the reader, there needs to be enough gaps to let the reader's imagination fill them in and let it become the reader's own story without it losing any of your story. Allowing the reader to put themselves in the story and think, "This so relates to me!" You and your crew, my friend, have gone above and beyond this! AWESOME! Thank you! The more I look at the new artwork, the more I am LOVING them, especially with the highlights! Maria! Mrrowr! I can now distinguish her Seal Point features on her face, from the rest of her face! Darius! He looks more handsome and majestic by the minute, after all, he is a lion! Hal! Oh, Hal! He still is the Hal I originally pictured but dare I say, more adorable, no, not adorable, that word is too used. Date-able?! Likeable? Even Love-able! With the highlights, he doesn't look at me accusatory any more, kind of how a shop owner would look at a patron who thinks they are up to no good. He now looks at me kinder, softer and more affectionately than he did before the highlights. The more I look at the pictures, the more I realize that you aren't trying to change my opinion/imagination, You are only bending it! My personal perceptions of the characters I've come to know and love are still there, only altered a teeny bit! Thank you, DyneWulf, GerBear and Gavel! And the MC, while I originally imagined him to be wimpy (I know Spencer is damn good at tennis, but if you are second on the team I would think you would do just a little better against him. xD Oh, and here, let me take off this extra 2 tons of weights because you can't lift as much as me (Which I totally understand, the guys are supposed to much more built and bulky and ripped than the MC)). That is just what I imagined. I am very happy that you have envisioned him bigger and bulkier than I originally did. Otherwise, the other guys would snap him in two! :o Oh, and I feel your pain having to go through thousands of lines of code. All for a simple " that Word puts in as a left or right quote instead of an ambidextrous quote that all coding software will recognize. XD Keep up the great work you guys, and I'm looking forward to the next update!

Taimaishoo

I didn't know if they had preparded it in advance or not. Im actually really excited to see what Gerbear is going to do with it.

Silverjack

Holy DyneWulf, you are really going places :D This looks wonderful! Can't wait to see more of it! I frigging love the Idea with the mc, it will just... make it so much more lively! And Spencer looks so much better, atleast the Sketch looks wonderful. I was scared that he would look to different, but GerBear did an amazing job. Christ, you are putting so much work into this now. It seems like you just took the Novel to a whole new Level. It's just THAT Good! :D I knew Supporting you was a good Idea <3

Choky

Wonderful wonderful! Everything really is coming together beautifully <3

Aurora Lovecraft

I am very curious as to who is drawing the upcoming sex scene between MC and Coach? Do you already have it prepared or will we get a taste of Gerbear's work on the next Coach update? I love both artists so it doesn't matter to me, but I'm just nervous that with all the work you guys are doing it might take a while for Gerbear to draw all those yummy bear parts so intimately. After all Coach is my absolute favorite character I can't wait for the next update. ; )

Silverjack

They are still in the works, and I'll be showing them off when I can! I threw some snags in the work flow with the talk about adding extra highlight details. Richard is actually the oldest member of the dateable cast (late 30s). I think you'll come to love that Southern man more, when you see more of him ;)

DyneWulf

Thanks, Grimm! There really are so many new possibilities I have now.

DyneWulf

Goodness yes, GerBear is doing an amazing job. I do have plans to work out the MC -not- being on screen. It'll take some time, but it's in my list of things I want to give people access to.

DyneWulf

Some little details really make a huge difference, right?

DyneWulf

Thank you!

DyneWulf

Everyone looks great! But where is the rest of the main cast (coach, Chester and Spencer)? And Hal looks super hot! The only one that i didn't like is Richard, now he looks older and not so hot... but it's just my opinion! I'm pretty sure i'll learn to love him as much as i love CM's version!

David Drake

This is truly amazing work. It's taking on an entirely new form (for the better). It's just so much more involved and doesn't feel as limited as before. You're doing amazing work, and a lot of it too. Don't push yourself too hard. :3

GrimFloof

Wow, from the art so far I have to say gerbear is doing an awesome job! I can't wait to see a finished version of coach, Chester, and Spencer. while I really liked the previous art I can totally appreciate gerbears work too. I do have a question though. Will there be an option to not have an MC on screen? Or will you have to have one up there?

Joseph knight

woooooooooah even better hot damn, such extra sheen to the sprites +___+ i also love how you can see darius' nipple piercings through his clothes now, always wondered about that >:3

Hyou Vizer

Happy to stick around, Dyne. : )

Frost Knight

The new designs really doo look great <3

DyneWulf

Things really do look amazing!

DyneWulf

I'm going to miss the old designs but the new ones looks great

jovuan Jackson

IT will feel that way, replaying them! There are some things that will actually require a restart (it comes along with the new coding I'm doing!). And yeah, it's super grindy, but I'll get through it, thanks :)

DyneWulf

This looks awesome, it seems like replaying the routes now will feel like playing a new game entirely, I'm really looking forward to it. I'm sure it's a lot of grindy work to do on your end as well so hang in there Dyne!

MauveAdagio

Great to hear! I figured as more and more art came out, people would warm up to it, and I'm happy for that. THank you!

DyneWulf

There's still a lot of work to be done, so don't fret ;3

DyneWulf

Definitely! Thank you :)

DyneWulf

Thank you! Ger really came up with a really great way to handle the color variations, so the clothing can have more variety than before (instead of just having a mostly solid color).

DyneWulf

That looks so good. I would caution Gerber about the heavy angle on his pose. (specifically MC) in the sample. The Dialogue change is 10/10.

WulfyB

Thank you so much! I think everything is looking really fantastic together too. I'm excited to bring more content to you all as well :)

DyneWulf

Wow! This is really looking great, man. I was unsure at first, but now I'm completely sold on the new style. Like Taryx said, the background fits really well with the new character art. The extra character detail is just icing on the cake! Keep it up, I'm exited to see what comes next!

I don't know how I feel about the MC being on the screen, i feel like it kind of takes away from the immersion, if that makes sense, at least until we can kind of customize him.

Donovan Grayson

You are doing a good (and a lot) of work. Be sure to rest and not burn yourself.😊

Chema

*squees with delight* Its all taking shape so nicely <3 Any lingering doubts that I did have, have now been thoroughly quashed. Really loving the colour variations with clothes, makes the characters feel a bit more alive / like the world is a bit more lived in if that makes sense. Such a simple thing really but it adds that much more to the game as a whole. Its gonna be awesome seeing the MC's in scenes now as well and seeing his reactions to the various events that have unfolded around him so far and events that are to come :D Keep up the great work Dyne, Gavel and Gerbear :D <3

Naesaki Ashwell

I'm loving the new look! It feels to me like the new character art fits really well with the backgrounds that Gavel's done. Also, resolution upgrade? That's awesome news in and of itself! And the cherry on top is everything getting a "polish" pass despite the already great quality! All this news has got me super excited to see how things look in the next updates!

Taryx

Yay, thank you, so i can still play it <3

I can't wait to see more either. GerBear is doing amazing work!

DyneWulf

Should run just fine on Windows 8!

DyneWulf

Thanks! GerBear is really working hard on the characters, and the MC really does look great!

DyneWulf

god I cant wait to see the new "sexy smirk" for Darius, made me all kinds of weak in the knees...

Keep in mind, this is just one face from him too, and it's one of his more devious ones ;3

DyneWulf

Yes, yes he does <3

DyneWulf

Thank you! Will do~

DyneWulf

Thanks so much! We'll keep working hard :)

DyneWulf

But this new version still gonna run on Windows 8? Because i want to continue playing it, when the new update comes :c

Maaaan this visual novel is going places far beyond my expectations! It's awesome! And MC look so cute too! x3

BassPuppy

lol. It’s funny how Darius was a cocky looking MFer before. Just with his redesign he looks 10000x more

Its so cool! My Dozer still look so sexy <3!

Keep the good work up bud! Y’all are doing something right!!

Cypher

Omg love all the work that is being done!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ keep it up guys
