Not a great deal of new content (my main focus has been on the next phase of the game), this build fixes some bugs and rounds the last day off a little better, I think.
I'll post again later and catch up on any unanswered comments and direct messages!

... in real life, just as it is in The Roommate: Revelations.
A first release of Revelations is still a little way off, but there will be a further build of Inheritance shortly. No new content, just some minor bugfixes and tweaks.
I'll continue to post work-in-progress Revelations con...

I'm beavering away on the next release and dealing (slowly) with various issues people have raised, and will follow up in greater depth later. If you've messaged me and I haven't got back to you yet, please bear with me!
This new phase of MC's journey is called Revelations with good reason...
The Roommate (latterly subtitled "Inheritance") was my first attempt at a visual novel. It was a huge learning experience and there were plenty of mistakes and missteps along the way, necessitating various fixes to avoid breaking saved games. I've also pissed a significant number of people off at...
2025-09-18 18:57:00 +0000 UTC View PostLinks to the latest build just posted and there will be lots to talk about, I'm sure. I'll follow up later!
2025-09-17 20:41:44 +0000 UTC View PostThings are (once again) running a little behind schedule - we're experiencing record temperatures here in "The Valley" (NW of Los Angeles) and rendering in the afternoons is out of the question, the AC just can't keep up (I know, first world problem).
Links to the beta build finally went ou...

An expanded group of beta testers will get a new build late tonight or early tomorrow. If everyone's happy I hope to get a full release out this weekend.
2025-09-04 19:08:09 +0000 UTC View PostThe next build is getting closer but I need a few people to test something ahead of time.
This would, obviously, involve something of a spoiler effect, because you'd be testing an incomplete release, but send me a direct message if you're up for it!

2025-07-23 11:56:36 +0000 UTC View PostHorribly long in coming, I know. I'll post more on that later. In the meantime, send me a DM if your patronage(?) expired in the last month and I'll send you the appropriate link ( Mac or PC).

2025-05-19 23:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostI really appreciate the kindness and support in the previous thread and DMs. I'm fully committed to the game and hoping to get the next build out ASAP.
I do want to share a few thoughts, though...
It's still my intention to divide the game into two parts at the three-month mark (in th...
2025-05-07 00:36:42 +0000 UTC View PostAs many of you are aware, I'm originally from the UK. Some family issues came up a month or so back, but I thought those had been dealt with. Unfortunately things reached a crisis point and I had no choice but to give that my full attention. Suffice to say it came to its inevitable conclusion and...

With family issues resolved (finally) I'm back to being able to focus on getting the new build ready. Apologies for the fact that's taken up so much of my time recently!
I have a couple of things that I still need to finish, one being an animated shot where there's a limb that doesn't want ...
2025-04-13 20:46:15 +0000 UTC View PostExcuse the radio silence over the last week or so, I've been dealing with some family stuff.
But work continues, and there's a build being tested by a couple of people right now, albeit with some temporary placeholder graphics. Assuming they don't spot any problems it's then just a matter o...

I'm working on the next release and checking a couple of issues that people have brought up. I should have a better idea of where I'm at by the end of the day, so look out for an update a little later.

You may have noticed a couple of changes on the title page with the latest build.
First and foremost is the modified title. There were people who criticised the original and I racked my brains trying to come up with something better, but it's been "The Roommate" for almost four years, so it...

I found another instance of my leaving in a test variable - I don't know how I managed to miss it because I always flag them with a comment line. Another case of me getting over-excited and rushing to get a build out! So sorry about that!
On the plus side, there'll be some little extras, i...
2025-03-04 00:33:24 +0000 UTC View PostThis build doesn't extend the timeline, but does take care of some errors, fleshes things out a little, and should bring us a little closer to wrapping up this cycle.
There's a reason I haven't made these builds public so I will, once again, ask you not to share them.
