Chapter 4 free on Itch - Chapter 5 paid on Itch

It was brought to my attention yesterday, that I didn't really make an announcement that the Itch page had been updated and that you can grab Chapter 4 there for free and also Chapter 5 for $5 USD. So here is the announcement and link to Chapter 5 :)

Weekly progress update - Feb 14th

Happy Valentine's day folks,

I hope you all enjoyed the latest version of the game you were able to play. Obviously getting out the Chapter 6 release, and making 5 available to Great Friends and 4 for Free was my initial focus for the week.

After that I worked on the trailer for Steam...

Steam Trailer

Here's a link to the final version of the Steam trailer. Had to create my very first youtube video too, so it can be shared on other platforms. Anyway back to work, chapter 7 is well underway now :)

For Sale button

Just a quick note. Patreon have introduced a new feature where you can just pay for a single post.

Use case for here would be one of the chapter uploads.

Those posts have a button on them called "For Sale", press that if you want to buy that post but are not on the support tier for ...

Steam trailer - First Draft - Help

Hi Folks,

I spent the last couple of days since getting chapter 6 out, learning how to use CapCut and trying my hand at video editing to build the trailer for steam.

I'm no expert, this is literally the first time I've done any video editing, so any feedback would be welcome but plea...

C6 - Renders Complete

Yay, all done rendering out chapter 6. I noticed a small issue with one of the animations during some initial testing that I need to fix, so I will render that while I perform my full end to end tests. Add a few more sound effects in, spell check (DEFINITELY (you know who you are)), compress the ...

For Best Friend tier, good news on development too. I've made excellent progress on the renderi...

Weekly Update - Feb 7th

Hi Everyone,

As you saw in my previous post, I finally finished the biggest and most important scene of Chapter 6. I'm now firmly into the final stretch. It's a long stretch still but I'm getting there. There are 6 more scenes to go, if we work on a principle of 2 days per scene that would ...

Behemoth done :)

After 152 renders plus 5 animations, the behemoth scene is complete, yay! That's 200 hours plus of rendering and probably at least another 200 in set up too !!

I can see the finishing line now for chapter 6, with 4 large scenes left (no where near Behemoth size) and 5 small scenes. I'll pu...

Loved this render

Just a quick bonus render from chapter 6. Loved how "Emma" looks here but why is she shocked?

Weekly Update - Jan 31st

Hi Everyone,

I'm stuck in render purgatory right now, I swear I must have angered the rendering gods because I am still rendering out the scene I told you all I started in last week's update. It must be close to the largest single scene I have done in the game from a renders perspective. I'...

Concerning

Hi Folks,

Neither this Patreon page nor any of my work like Best Friends or Great Hire, has any intent on delving into the world of politics and religion however I feel right now that I must bring something up that breaks that rule a little, so please forgive me.

As you may or may not...

Weekly Update - Jan 24th

HI Everyone,

A productive week for me as I fight yet another virus my kids brought home with them from school, this time of year (in cold climates of the northern hemisphere at least) are terrible for that.

I've completed  7 scenes out of the planned 16 for chapter 6 as of now. ...

Out take

One of the issues I encounter often during rendering is items of clothing or hair or other kinds of assets you put on a character that just misbehave for whatever reason. A lot of the times you can put up with them for a single shot or 2 or 3 but when you want to render more than a handful it's a...

Weekly update - Jan 17th

Hi Everyone,

I hope you have all had a chance to play the completed Chapter 5 if you are on the Best Friend tier or Chapter 5 - Part One for Great Friends or Chapter 4 for Good Friends. If you are ever in doubt where to look for the downloads for your tier, click on the collections menu opt...

Enjoying rendering Chapter 6

Bonus render from Chapter 6, really liking my work right now :)

Emma Wallpapers

Gamelover asked me to put together a few wallpapers of our heroine. He's generously agreed to let me share them with the rest of you lovely Patreons. There's 4k, 2k (1440p) and HD (1080p) versions. Most are NSFW so I wouldn't suggest you pop them onto that computer in the meeting room ahead of yo...

Best Friends - Chapter 5 - Complete

Hi Everyone,

Thank you all for your patience. Here it is, the second and final part of Chapter 5. Like I mentioned in the weekly, I have now flipped to .webp image files, which is why the file size is considerably smaller.

Play the game the way you want to but if you want to see all t...

Tomorrow

Hi Everyone,

Just a heads up, I'm on the last couple of renders now and I have completed the bulk of my testing too. So I'm fully expecting the update will drop tomorrow, I may redo a couple of animations but in all honesty neither animation is game breaking as it is so it shouldn't hold up...

Weekly Update - Jan 10th

Hi Everyone,

Great news on the progress front. I've begun rendering out the final scene for chapter 5, as I write this I have 23 renders left to go. Most of these renders are already set up or require small changes to other frames. On a good day I can bang those out in a day, it may spill o...

Teaser

Gamelover asked me for a teaser photo. So here's a couple. Progress by the way is really good, entering the last few days of rendering, one and a half scenes to go. Shouldn't be too long :)

Weekly Update - Jan 3rd

Hi Everyone,

It's been a great week in terms of progress. I have now completed 15 scenes for part two of chapter 5, the 16th should be done by the end of today. After that there are only 5 scenes left. At least one of those scenes however is going to be a big one in terms of rendering effor...

Happy New Year !

Hello Everyone,

I hope you all had a great Christmas and are all set for the New Year.

I've been busy working away on the next update, which honestly is turning out to be a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be initially. I've completed a total of 7 scenes, halfway through the ...

Merry Christmas

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and may 2025 bring you all that you desire.

Weekly update - Dec 20

Hi Everyone,

My unpaid tester, you know who you are :) Gave me a bunch of issues to fix with part one of chapter 5. I've fixed them but will wait till the next release to package them up.

I've also been working hard on part two, I'm about 5 renders away from finishing up my 3rd scene....

Why do I charge for content? History of BF!

Hi folks,

I posted this on F95 in response to someone who was asking why I felt the need charge a fee for chapter 4. In typical fashion I didn't use 10 words when 500 or so would do perfectly well. I go into a little history of how BF came into being, thought I would repost here...
