I think the separation of Day 7 from the epilogues will work for the best given that.

But I was also am thinking of it from a literary sense. (I'm an avid reader, as I've mentioned before.) One of the things about epilogues is they ARE suppose to take place *after* the main story has ended. So doing them them apart, I feel, might give a better visual *novel* experience and also means you can get Day 7 out faster and when you release the epilogues, it will be like a dessert for your players .

One of the other game creators I follow/support, put one of their finish games on sale on Steam about a month ago. Now you said you didn't want to do this for money, but you could make it free or just a token cost. I certainly would like to see it there, because it is so very difficult to find gay-related games, especially kinky ones, Especially horror ones, ESPECIALLY Lovecraftian ones! On Steam you would reach a wider audience. (Of course, I have NO idea what is involved in getting a game on Steam; it might not be practical for you.)

S0 — do you have plans for the sequel yet?!

Hi!

The epilogues will be divided into several parts based mainly on your romance and madness levels and some decisions you took during the game. In general, it will be a combination of different end stories. Some of them will happen just after the 7th day but others will take some time after. You'll see it ;)

The main problem with releasing it on Steam is they do not accept games with graphics generated by IA, so my game would not be accepted on that platform. It's a shame, but it's a fight I can't win :)

I'm not planning to make a sequel to the game, as I don't plan to leave cliffhangers, and I want to close all the plots. That does not mean that I don't have ideas for other games :)

Thank you very much for your comments again.

That's a downer with Steam not accepting AI-generation graphics. I've seen some excellent IA graphics that would be outstanding in some games. I understand not wanting to take work for artists, but I do think it will turn out to be somewhat short-sighted.

I know there is a lot of negative reaction to AI art, but my feeling is it certainly has its uses. I likely have the skill to plot and write a damn good gay horror visual novel myself, but I lack the skill do to the artwork for it. If I could have an AI do that work (and I would still have to accept images it produced before including them -- and I am capable of minor graphic editing), I would be able to produce something *good*, I believe.

One suggestion, which I mentioned once months ago, if you do to another game, give the characters *different* physical builds. One think I have found distracting in the game is that all the human characters have body-builder builds. Adding some characters with more normal-builds or swimmer-builds or even someone overweight would help the "realism" of your games. IMHO, of course. Others mileage may vary!

Thank you so much for doing a kinky gay Mythos game! It made me extremely happy to find one!
