Progress Update | 25/03/2024


Hello there you extremely wonderful and super wholesome people!

Another week, another progress update!

Before I start, there will be a small update to the situation I posted last week at the end of this post.

Also, the option to support me will be unlocked again on the 29th, so I'm not going to continue to pause pledges. If you don't want to or can't support me anymore, please keep in mind that Charges will resume on the 30th. If you supported me after October 14th, 2022, then Patreon will charge you on days you pledged ( So if you pledged on the 7th of a month, you would get charged on the 7th of April ). If you supported me before this date then you will be charged on April 1st.

Okay, let's jump into the games!

Like I promised last week, the script for the first day of the prologue is completed. Beege, my proofreader, is already checking it for typos etc. My first idea of making it "shorter" to give supporters a preview before continuing didn't really work out, so this first beta will be pretty long already - Like the MNM betas. The day will introduce all characters and you will get a lot of background info on them. Lea ( and her mother Katharina ) and Jackie will basically be childhood friends of the MC and Sabrina and they both knew Anna as well. Rei and Amelie will be new girls the MC meets, like I said when I showed the characters for the first time. I did my best to make it clear that especially Jackie is a very important person to the MC and I truly believe that playing the prequel will explain a lot of things that happened in the MCs life. Theres also going to be some pretty cute and funny moments, especially with the Busty mother of Lea. Lea is also the girl you see in todays progress update, shortly before the three of them ( Lea, Sabrina and the MC ) drive to the university. The car seems familiar, right? Well, like Sabrina said, this was the first car the MC got and that he worked on with his father. The Charger you see in the main game looks almost the same since Anna was able to find a very similar looking one ( I hope that finally clears up some confusion about this part of the conversation the MC has with Sabrina ). Now I only have to finish the rest of the renders I hope I'll be able to complete all of them this week!

I also worked on the Chapter 4 script some more now that I "only" have to make the renders for the first prequel beta. I feel like the prequel really helped me fleshing out some of the relationships the MC has or had in the past. Now that he has his memories back it will be so much easier to introduce characters the proper way. I think Chapter 3 already showed that a little, especially with girs like Lina and Yukiko becoming more how they really are, but the main part of this will happen in Chapter 4. You will see Morgan in a completely new light, for example, and the same goes for Jessica. They will stay the loveable and cute girls that they are, but especially Morgan will be more like her old self again. And if you are on the transgender path with her then you will get some very wholesome moments with her, the MC and Anna!

Okay, now the small update on the situation I explained last week. As you might remember, there is a case where I'm the witness/victim and side plantiff. Well, in a turn of events that no one predicted, the main culprit fled to Thailand. Yes, you read correctly, a few days before the court case started, he fled. According to his lawyer he was threatened by his friends ( maybe they aren't friends anymore now ) because he wanted to confess everything. But my lawyer(s) and I believe that is bullshit, he just wants to portray himself as a victim later on. There was even local press article about this stuff ( that he was able to flee to Thailand because he wasn't under arrest ). Anyway, my hearing as a witness is on the 9th at 12:30, because the court hearing is going to continue even without him. This could be a positive thing for the framing since he is the main "witness" ( with faked evidence ) in that case and now the state attorney might wonder why the fuck he fled. It looks like I only have to appear on that day and that my questioning won't be as long, at least I hope so. I will hear more from my lawyer on the 4th and I keep you guys updated on everything that will happen. Thank you guys so much for all the thoughts, prayers and positive comments last week by the way, that really really helped to calm my mind a little, so I appreciate that.

And I think that's it for this week. Sorry for the wall of text and if anything comes up I'll let you guys know. Stay awesome!

Glad to hear you won't actually have to see the guy who screwed things up so much for you; I think you mentioned that having to see him in the courtroom would be likely to aggravate your PTSD.

I have to see his "friends", sadly, that were there as well. But I will manage, I have a good friend that will accompany when I have to testify so that I won't be completely alone against those four.
