Hello, sweethearts! 😍 I wanted to share something important with you all—I’ve decided to bring Student of Love to an end. πŸ˜­πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’”  When I first discovered the world of visual novels, I was amazed—it felt like stepping into something truly magical.πŸŽ† So, I jumped in, eager to create one myself. I played and read a few to understand what people enjoyed, and I tried to replicate that style while keeping things as simple as possible. After all, it was my first VN, and there was so much to learn. But along the way, I made a lot of mistakes—like writing obvious jokes, adding a dream scene (which everybody hated 😭), and creating that hotel scene with SexyMilf69 (aka Leonore) that completely killed the tension.πŸ₯Ά On top of that, my design style evolved over time, and reworking everything took longer than expected, making it feel like I was getting nowhere—even though I was working as fast as I could.πŸ™ƒ  The truth is, I’ve loved reading and writing since I was a kid—it’s probably my favorite thing in the world—but my natural style is completely different from what I forced myself to do in SOL. And the way I design now is not the same as when I first started—thankfully.πŸ˜… It was so hard to accept, but after countless hours of work and many sleepless nights trying to fix things, I realized that no matter how many twists I added, I couldn’t undo the core mistakes I had made early on.πŸ˜­πŸ’” And the reality is, the only way to sustain something long-term is if you truly love doing it.πŸ€—

 So, as bittersweet as this is, I know it’s the right choice.πŸ₯° And here’s the exciting part—I’m now working on a brand-new VN, one that truly feels like me!!πŸ’ŸπŸ€—πŸ₯°πŸ˜πŸ‘©β€πŸ¦°πŸ˜βœ¨πŸŽ‡πŸŽˆπŸŽ‰πŸŽ€ A story that excites me, that I’m passionate about, and that I can’t wait to share with you!😏  I also feel deeply sorry for letting you down, especially those who supported the project from the start. πŸ’” Thank you so much for your encouragement, trust, and kindness—it truly meant the world to me.πŸ˜­πŸ’˜ I wouldn’t have learned as much as I did if it weren’t for the motivation you gave me to keep going!πŸ’•  I used to be terrified of failure, but I’ve learned that the only way to grow is by making mistakes, embracing them, and learning from them.πŸ™ And that’s exactly what I’m doing. I hope this new story not only excites you as much as it does me but also pulls you in so deeply that you need to keep reading and living alongside these characters!😍😏πŸ”₯🌑️πŸ₯΅

 Sending you all the warmest, tightest hug.πŸ€— I’ll be here, quietly working in the shadows, pouring my heart into this new and beautiful project. πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»πŸ’–πŸ˜

xoxo, Sammie πŸ’‹

Sad to hear your passion died and you think you made too grave a mistake in the beginning. But hey, it was your first game and sometimes stuff like this happens. All that matters is you learn from it and keep holding on to that passion and know where to redirect instead of letting it die for good. 

Yes the game had a hiccup or two but i still enjoyed it while it lasted. Side note I can't wait to see the next project though.

While it's sad to see it come to a sudden end, at least you're being transparent about it. For that you have my thanks. Look forward to checking out the new one.

Also, I hope you make an update post here to let us know when you've made your first upload, I'm sure I'm not the only one that would likely miss it otherwise. XD 

would you ever consider coming back to this game when you have a steady pacing on that new VN of yours?
