Progress Update | 24/10/2022

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

Hello there you wonderful and sexy people!

Another week, another progress update!

Last week has been "okay" in terms of work. I wasn't able to do as much as I wanted, but I'm confident that I will still be able to release a beta for this week. I had to scrap and redo an event two times because it just didn't feel right...If that makes sense. I made some adjustments and now I'm happier with it. It's not even a big event, just a shorter talk with Sandy before MC and the gingers drive back home, but I just wasn't happy with it for a while. The good thing is that I then can jump to other events and write on those, so that helped me not completely lose my focus. I have the day planned out thankfully, and I added an extra event with Elaine during the day ( since she will also be back home from the vacation place. ). Gra...I mean, Old Landlady and the MC, have a lot to talk about, especially since she dropped this huge bomb on the first day of the update. It's something for Elaine, MC and Lucy to talk more about, since the others are too busy being happy about it. Not that those three are not happy, but they want to find out more. It probably makes zero sense when I write it like that, but you'll see what I mean once you play 0.23! Like I said, beta hopefully this week, my guess is on sunday. If it does get delayed I'll make sure to let you guys know!

I also worked on My New Memories again, the render you see in todays post is actually one you'll see in Chapter 3. It's a flashback, of course, but it's one that will have very important dialogue regarding stuff that will happen after everything has been resolved in that chapter. I never really did this before, planning something out so far ahead, but I have to admit, it feels good to do this. Having another story arc planned out that will intertwine with other things that will happen in My New Memories...It's going to be interesting. To give you a little spoiler that is not too spoilery: While I will mostly keep up the "days" you experience ingame, there will be a shorter timeskip in Chapter 4, to progress a certain story path. I think it will make more sense once you play it, I don't want to worry you guys too much. And it's not final as well, see it like "A few weeks later..." or something like that. Like I said, it's not final yet and I might go in a different direction.

And I think thats it for now. Sorry that I don't have that much more to talk about, but if anything comes up, I'll let you guys know! Stay awesome!
