Do you want this?

Hi Everyone,

As the game has gotten larger, I thought folks may like a way to switch the path they were on, on the fly. So I added this little toggle to the options menu and reworked some of my code, which to be frank wasn't very elegant anyways so this was a good thing. This was in no way...

A few notes on Chapter 4

Chapter 4 will be delivered in two halves. The half you have today plus the second half which will be delivered in about a mo...

Progress update

Hi Everyone,

I will try to put one of these out at the end of each week, to keep you abreast of progress on Best Friends. Chapter 4 has been my focus this week. I've fully scripted, rendered and coded the first 3 scenes now. I will probably push a version out to you after I've completed 3 m...

Just a small update to improve on an animation in chapter 3.

Great Hire - Part 1 Released Exclusively to Patreon

Patreon Supporters get access to the first short instalment of an adult comic that follows the career of Faenon Tech's latest employee. This part is 29 slides long and serves as an introduction to the characters. If you've played Best Friends some characters may be familiar.

Best Friends Version 0.31 Released

Small update from 0.3 fixes an animation in the "Jon" path and replaces the over use of acronyms in general dialogue. Get version 0.31 only on Patreon.

Which route?

I hope you liked the chance to chose whose eyes you get to view Best Friends through. I would love to hear which route you decided to pick.

Spot the difference !

Would you give Claire the job ?

A slide from adult comic "Great Hire" part 1 will be exclusively here to Patreon supporters very soon.

The original "Michael"

Thought it would be fun to show you what the original lets call him "Alpha" main character was going to look like. I pivoted away from this as I switched to a later generation of base model.

I will try to post some more out takes and general messing around stuff as we move forward. I will o...

Coming Soon

The first instalment of an adult comic.

Matt has struggled to find the right people for his team. Claire has struggled to find meaningful employment. Could this be the perfect fit?

Short answer is, it's coming as the story moves on.

Adult content though is not the focus of this VN, it's included to add an element of realism to the story it's n...
