2023-09-05 03:37:52 +0000 UTC View PostSept - Left Hand Magic Poll 1/2
Yes, that says 1/2. There are going to be TWO polls for Left Hand Magic this month. This one is the traditional Focus Poll. I have three scenes I need to do to finish up Week 4. The missing Revina scene from the Weekday content which I completely forgot about last build, plus the remaining two we...
2023-09-05 03:04:30 +0000 UTC View PostHaven's Port (Build 22) - Walkthrough and Cheats
Whew! This took a bit longer than I thought it would. I was pretty wiped out after the release, plus has some daily life stuff I had to rush to catch up on. Sorry it was a little slow in coming, but it's here now! Note that there was a very minor change to the Cheats. The Pirate Skill ch...

With the release of Build 22, it's also time for a new Public Release! Build 21 was a seriously dense release, with a total of 21 new scenes. Adding in just how large and/or complex some of those s...

2023-09-02 00:31:31 +0000 UTC View PostJust a Quick Note
I was pretty spot on with my estimates (so far at least) from the last progress report. I'm 2/3rds done with the writing/editing and expect to finish them before I crash in the morning. That, of course, means that the release will be at least a day late. Hopefully only a day late. If I m...

Alright, everything except the game release is already out for the month! As for the Haven't Port release...news is a bit mixed there. I've finished post-processing and programming. But have yet to start the writing. Currently, despite my best efforts, I'm expecting the release to be a single day...

Okay! First and foremost, the Old Reward Archive as been updated with both of last month's stories! Normally, I do that right after I release a story, but I put it off this time for a specific reason. Namely, because o...

Whew! Okay, things I've gotten a bit hectic for me the last few days, but I'm coping! Mostly! I actually had the editing pass for this done yesterday morning, but various things kept me from getting it actually put up until now. As usual, the story is attached in PDF format. This one is right aro...

ANYWAY! I actually really like this one, so h...
2023-08-11 11:14:52 +0000 UTC View PostProgress Report
Alright! Figured I'd do at least one of these, even if I can't say a whole lot yet with all the polls still ongoing. Still, it's not like I've been idle!

I've already got the first three scenes of the Fleet Admiral ending done. Well, mostly. I'm technically still doing th...
2023-08-08 08:41:44 +0000 UTC View PostAugust Short Story Poll
Alright, folks! Despite mentioning that I needed some partial days off, I haven't been doing nothing since the start of the month. One of the things I've done is getting a jump start on one of the short stories. As it happens, that one will be an entirely new idea I had a bit of a muse f...
2023-08-05 07:46:37 +0000 UTC View PostHaven's Port - August Focus Poll
Alright! I was in desperate need of a couple of partial days off, as I ran myself down pretty badly at the end of last month. But it's past time to get things back into gear. Haven's Port, as you should all know by now, is rapidly spiraling towards being finished. My primary focus now is on the E...

Okay! Build is ready on time. And there's even a chance I may have the Walkthrough done before midnight. Yay! As for the build itself, I'm 100% happy with the story, but there are 3 of its animations I really want to rework -_-. Two of them are the spanking animations (you'll know them w...

The build is actually done. In fact, I thought I was going to be able to post it this morning as a surprise. Unfortunately, something broke with my attempts to compress the build and I'm currently unsure what. Worst case, I'll update the PNG version (which is like 5GB at this point). But hopefull...

Okay! As promised, the new Eros Academy story! This one somehow turned into almost tip to toe pure smut. I guess I've done so much story-drive writing lately that it just worked out that way?
