Hi folks!
As we're still waiting for the illustration for the scene closing Lake's day 4, the NSFW variant of it at least, but the scene already debuted in v0.51, I asked the artist for permission to share a WIP.

Hi folks!
Day 5 has come, finally. For the two of our characters, at least! Today we're releasing v0.51 update for Devon, Lake and Klaus. It was the main thing I worked on this month, finishing at over 13k words of new scenes in total, converging in the sam...

If you enjoyed the sex scene from Broken Harbours featuring our two athletic boys and wished to have it more easily available, or simply appreciate some lewd action with some size difference involved, then this post is for you!

It's the midpoint of the month and I wanted to share with you how development is going this month. At the moment I'm juggling between a few different things - I'm still working on a more detailed sketch for the entire Day 5 and Broken Harbours is at the last stretch before the rel...

We've changed a lot in the last build - including the rework for Rune, separating NSFW content, replay gallery, new intro and more. Inadvertently we've introduced a lot of bugs too (including for the gallery in NSFW patch), enough to warrant a build fixing those. Hence...

As announced before, this month's update doesn't yet start Day 5. We've focused on things we wanted to tackle but didn't have enough time for when working on new chapters. Here is the full list of changes:
- A new, rewritten intro
- New set of front-facing expressions for...
Hi folks!
The team isn't slacking off, and as the end of the month looms, we're slowly finishing the work on the revised Broken Harbours. The entire VN is already in a playable, but not yet polished state, and I wanted to share a few sneak peeks.
The revised version will have the newe...

Hi folks!
Haku has finished drawing, and I’m applying some changes to our new Lake sprite. Lake was the first character Haku has done in the current set of sprites, still experimenting with the style, and it was due a rework to bring the style closer to the rest of the sprites and address...

I have a new illustration to share with you - something that in retrospect should've been in the VN for a long time, but now I had the time to find a place for it and funds to commission it too. Here's Mikko playing his synths, by 2025-09-18 12:52:47 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi folks!
This summer, I finally had both the funds and Bakemonoy’s availability to commission an illustration for a scene in Torulf's route that truly demanded one. The final result might a bit over the top, but in a way I think really resonates with the context. The illustration will be...

Hi folks!
I'm sharing Haku's reworks for Rune, and the in progress new sprite for Lake.
In case of Rune, I long wanted to recapture the charm of the previous sprite somehow. Haku and me experimented with various ideas, tried redrawing the whole sprite, but ultimately we've settled on ...

We have some very exciting months ahead of us! Day 4 is finally closed and we're moving to the last day in our story. Don't worry, that won't be the end yet - I'm planning on writing epilogues too. But let's don't get ahead of ourselves! Right now, after releasing v0.50, I'm worki...

Today marks a huge milestone for Dawn Chorus. After a year and a half of development, team expansion and changes, Day 4 is finally all finished and closed with this joint update for Lake and Jørgen!

Before the full update drops near the end of the month, I wanted to share Jørgen's portion of it with you now. It wraps Jørgen's day 4 finally, adding the few last scenes to what you've seen in v0.49.
Lake's part of the update was being worked on in parallel, so half of it...

Hi folks!
Haku has finished the work they've started on the new sprite for Devon. We've worked a bit on the snout and tried to make it more feline after the feedback from you. We might still tweak somehting here and there, but rather happy with the result and can't wait to see him in the ga...

This month we're celebrating 5 years since the first build, and what an adventure it's been so far. Starting in early 2020 with just me and Haku, then Roborak and Tintiai joining us soon after, we had modest ambitions at first and no idea how far this project would take us. It...
Hi folks!
I'm back with an update for our bodacious bat! It picks off where we last left Arvo, at the concert at the gallery, beginning with a decision - but I'll stop here not to spoiler anything more. The new content is split between two roughly similar sized paths and span almost to the ...

Hi folks!
We're using Haku's greater availability lately to rework some of the assets we're not fully happy with. While most of the sprites we consider to be final, there are a few we thought could use some changes. In Devon's case - I thought the current sprite didn't have the sturdiness a...

The new update for Jørgen is taking a while, I know - I've just returned from vacations a bit more than a week ago and went straight back into work. The update is pretty complicated, split into two paths, and only last week after working hard with the QA team we finally got all t...

Before the next update is ready, I wanted to drop some of the new illustrations and assets in progress that we're still waiting for:

The summer is already in full swing in Europe, with the heat reaching 30C in my city today. I just came back from short vacations, blessing the powerful AC in my favourite cafe.

Hi folks,
The new update is here - and inside it, the rest of Bjørn's day 4! Writing the new scenes was a great fun, perhaps even a bit self-indulgent in some points, but with no detriment to the new content. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as enjoyed writing it! 🐻
Inside there's a...
