Progress Update | 27/09/2021

My New Family
A downloadable MyNewFamily for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Hello there you extremely cute and wholesome people out in the world!

I will only briefly talk about My New Family because I barely started the script for 0.22. Like some of you already suggested and said in my last progress update, it all depends on the inspiration. Still, the main focus is My New Memories at the moment and at least I have good news regarding that!

The script for the second day is now completed. The day is even longer than the first one, packed with events and a lot of new information for our MC. Now all I have to do is the renders and I already finished more than half of them. I will probably finish the last ones sometimes this week and the only thing that would be missing then is the lewd animation  I planned for the evening. But I will probably release the beta on discord without those animations, so you guys can play it before. I will give you guys a prompt to Save before the animation would start, so once the pre-release goes live you can enjoy it right away! I also did something different with certain lewd dialogues in the game, trying a different approach on those scenes. I can't wait to hear your feedback on that, I think it will drastically improve the "weaker" point of my game(s) - the lewd stuff! And I know that a lot of you wonderful people don't mind that, but it doesn't hurt to improve on that front as well, right? Oh, I also updated Lina a little bit, even though you didn't meet her in the prologue. Just as a reminder, Lina is Sarahs little sister!

I think this first update for My New Memories will address some things that people mentioned after playing the prologue. I probably talked about this already, but there won't be any holding back anymore, from no one. MC will receive all the information he asks for and through meeting a few new key characters, will regain some of his memories as well. And since the update will be pretty big you can expect a lot of things happening. Working on it has been so enjoyable, something that I sadly didn't feel for quite a while. Not that working on My New Family wasn't as exciting or enjoyable anymore, but working on this new story sparked a new glimmer of inspiration in me. Inspiration that will also carry over to My New Family, bringing the game to new levels and a hopefully, very satisfactory ending before jumping right into My New Family 2.

I also wanted to talk about a few complaints I have gotten since the poll decided that I should alternate between games. I know that a lot of you amazing people started to support me because of My New Family. I will still release Betas for My New Family throughout the next month, but they won't be nearly as frequent as they were before. I don't think I have it in me to not work on MNF at all, I would feel horrible if I just took a break from it completely. Still, if you think that now that I alternate between updates you don't want to support me anymore, that is totally fine as well. Like I said, I expected it and I respect these decisions 100%. Just as I respect the decision to complain about me only posting the game on discord. Those are valid complains, but at least the alternating between updates is the best for my mental health. So I appreciate each and everyone who supports me in this decision, caring about me and my mental health in general. Reading those comments really touched me so thank you again for that.

And I think that's it for this week. Keep an eye out on the discord for more teasers and special renders regarding My New Memories. I can promise you that it's worth it to join and interact with all those amazing and wholesome people! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the encouraging comments, dms and your overall support!
