Driven by Desire - Release date New update!

✨ Update Schedule Changes + News About the Next Patch

Hello everyone! I’d like to share some important updates about how future releases will work here on Itch.io and tell you what’s coming in the next patch.

💛 About the New Release Schedule

From now on, public releases on Itch.io will come out on the day when a new update launches for paying supporters on Patreon.
This change is my way of showing a little extra appreciation to those who support the project financially — your help keeps the development stable and allows me to put more time and energy into the visual novel.

At the same time, I want to say that I deeply appreciate everyone who plays the game, follows the updates, and shares feedback. Your interest means a lot to me and motivates me to keep going.

🕒 Update Frequency

My goal is to release updates approximately once a month.
Each update will be similar in size to the previous ones — not huge, but consistent, meaningful, and released at a stable pace.

I also want to mention that I have a full-time job, and I work on the game entirely in my free time. Even so, I do my best to keep the story progressing regularly.
And honestly, I truly hope that one day I’ll be able to quit my job and dedicate myself fully to creativity, to you, and to our game. That’s my dream.

📦 What’s Coming in the Next Update

The upcoming update includes:

• 230 new images

• 11 new animations

• new sound effects and music tracks

• and story progress: the main character finally attends the modeling event, where Carla performs

I hope you’ll enjoy what’s coming ✨
