About 90% done, rendering has been a lot smoother lately. Honestly at this point I'm embarrassed about giving an ETA, since something always seems to keep delaying me.

Still have about 50+ renders to do and about 20 animations to render out as well.

Again sorry for the constant delays and thanks for your patience. I'm really hoping to have it finished in the coming week or two.

Thank you for the kind review it does mean a lot to me. 

I can confirm I do already have my next project selected, I did do some work on it but have since put it on hold until Altered reaches closer to it's conclusion.

I'm working really hard to finish this giant update as soon as possible and I know I keep saying that, but honestly I didn't expect this update to take so long. 

So while I still keep hammering away at this I want to leave a few images to give sneak peek at what's to come (These are in no particular order and were chosen mostly randomly and are from various spots through out the update):

It's progressing even with all the studio crashes and renders needing constant fixes. I am really hoping to have the update out before the month ends, but due to the studio crashes costing me so much time I might need an extra week or two. I do have about 75% of all images rendered already and about 50% of those I'm satisfied with to say they won't need changes or fixes. I am really trying to get it out as fast as possible, but due to the volume of this update there is still a lot to do.

This Version 0.9 will have the most content added. More than any of the past updates. You can also forward to more revelations of the MC's past. 

I'm glad to hear you've been enjoying the story and I hope you'll enjoy the upcoming update(As soon as I can finish it!) 

Still have a few animations to finish (There are about 30+ animations in total)

I'm still pretty much just rendering and fixing.

I'm still hopeful for the update to be out this month.

I really didn't expect this update to take this long to produce, but still thank you all for your patience.

Glad to hear!

Currently focusing on rendering and fixing scenes up. I'm still trying to release before July, but it's looking like I will still need a bit more time. Chapter 10 was supposed to be the biggest chapter in the story so far, but I think chapter 11 has got it beat it now. While I was doing edits to the writing I kept adding more and more to it to the point I had to force myself to stop adding more. If not I was going to need another two months to finish.

Again sorry it's taking so long, right now it depends how much daz studio keeps crashing during my batch rendering. 

Thank you all for your patience!

While I am almost done with this update, it does look like it will be a late june to early july release. Believe me I've been going as fast as I can. I might be able to do mid june but I would probably need to cut ch12 from this update and leave it for the next update. I will see where I am at on june 1st and make a decision than.

Thanks again for your patience and I promise I'll have it out as soon as possible.

Hi sorry for the late reply,  I'm finishing up chapter 10 again. (It was done, but I ended up adding way more to it since I felt it ends too abruptly and didn't connect to well to chapter 11 now it's probably the longest chapter so far.) 

chapter 11's writing is pretty much done and I've done a good amount of the renders for it already.

Chapter 12 will be most likely end being shorter of the three chapters for this update as it will basically wrap up this major story event. So hopefully it doesn't take too long to complete

Unfortunately, it will still be a good while before release. I was hoping for june release, but it could still take longer.

Sorry for it taking so long, but I'll try to get it out as soon as possible.     

Finishing up some of the final scenes for ch10, took me a little longer then I wanted do to some rewrites. Luckily, ch11 should be a little faster since I have already some the scenes from there already started from back as far as V 0.2 . ch12 will mainly depend on how my first draft of it holds up when ch10 and ch11 are finalized.

I'm hoping for the update to be complete by late march or early april, but it could still take longer.

I really want to take my time with this update as it's meant to be a very important moment in the story, so I hope you can continue to be patient with me.

Thanks!

Thanks and yes thankfully everything has been going well. I have started working on the next update, but things are progressing smoothly. Hopefully I can have the next update out soon currently my goal is for earliest a march release, but depends on how things progress.

Thanks again for checking up

Thanks and yes luckily everything went well. I am thankful to everyone who was understanding in this matter. I really do enjoy creating this story, it's been a lot of fun and rewarding even if this story is completely free. (I still appreciate everyone who has been kind enough to donate.) 

Thanks again for the support.

Currently finishing up rendering, which will hopefully be done by tomorrow. After that I will code it and go through it a couple times. If everything goes to plan it should be done sometime this week. 

Honestly this update should've been out months ago since it's meant to be a very small chapter and most of the update was a rewriting and redoing animations of early chapters. Unfortunately, due to a family emergency I couldn't work on the story for a long time. I understand if some people might be upset at the short length of this update, with how long the wait was. I've already started working on the following update but since it was already planned to be a three chapter long update. It will still take me some time. I'm sorry for the really long wait and thanks for your patience.

Unfortunately I had family emergency come up and I haven't had much time to work on the story. I've just started working on it again since Monday. I don't have a release date yet, but I have finished the rewrites and the redone animations for chapters 1-4. I still need to redo the animations for chapters 5 and 6. Chapter 9 is almost done.  I'm hoping to get the update out before the end of the month.

 Sorry it's taking so long, I'll do my best to get it out soon.

Mainly working on redoing the animations and fixing the writing for the first 6 chapters. Then finishing up the next part. 

I'm currently working on chapters 9, 10, and 11, but I'm only releasing 9 for now with all the redone animations and fixes. Depending on how 10 turns out I might release it on its own or along with 11. 

Next update could be out next month or 2.

Thanks I'll look into it.

Update is now live

Sorry it's taking so long, two of the animations were not rendering correctly and I wasn't happy with how some renders for important scenes came out. I'm pretty much done with everything else, I should have it ready for tomorrow afternoon. Again sorry for the delay and thanks for being patient.

Currently rendering images and coding.

It should be done this coming weekend or next week. 

I'm not sure if it will be this coming update, but I do plan on going back redoing the older animations. Either this coming update or the one after.

I appreciate the kind words, great hear to how much you're enjoying it.

That was my first attempt at animations so hopefully they do improve over time.

Thanks for reading!

Check out my story completely free

I saw another page that was talking about the shadow bans was taken down, hopefully this one stays up.

I will still keep posting links on here as long as I'm able, I barely found about this when I got home. It sucks more people won't be able to easily find the story on here. Since I'm not selling the game I have no reason to leave the site for now. If itch removes my story from here completely. I am also personally posting it on

f95zone.to

since I can't post the link here

simply search it under:

Altered mr.j

I've been releasing updates on both sites at the same time, so no worries on one site getting it sooner then the other.

side note: New update should be out early August

Unfortunately it's still going to be awhile.  I don't have release date yet as there is still so much left to do before the update is ready. Especially since the story is going to start getting into some of its main events in the coming updates, I need to make sure everything is place for when things start to pick up.

They are on the homepage

There was some bugs reported in the previous links I had posted, I created a patch to address those bugs. There a fresh links with the fix already implemented. Android users just download the APK again and update. Sorry for the inconvenience. 

Finally here!

still in development

I'm sorry, I really tried to get everything finished Sunday. But I'm going to need one more day to finish.

The update is coded and I already fixed all the errors I could find. There are just some renders I need to redo since they look really bad. Once they're done, I going to give the story one more go through have it done.

I should have it up on sometime on Monday.

Again I'm really sorry for all these delay's.

Sorry for the late reply

Yes, finished my beta for it and I am currently fixing code errors and redoing renders.  I will try to have it out by Saturday, but latest should be Sunday.

I'm doing well thank you.

As for the update I am about done the renders, I still need to grammar check and then code it. I should be done this month I am hoping to release it next week.

Honestly don't have a release schedule due to my day job, and it also depends on how long I want to make the update. I would say around 2-3 months, I'm hoping to start releasing them faster. 

And yes you have my permission to translate it, I would love for more people to read it. 

Thanks for reading, I'm glad you're enjoying the story.

Thanks I actually have seen some VN's that do RPA file thing you mentioned, still don't how to specifically do it from the dev's side, but I'll look into thanks.

As for the image size I was even honestly surprised at how much just the images for this update took up. I'll try looking into it. 

Sorry it took so long, but update is out.

Soon I still need just a bit more time finish . It should still be out with in this month, I'm glad your excited. I will try to get it out as soon as possible.  

Thank you for the kind wishes and I hope the same for you and your loved ones as well.

I'm hoping to release the next update before the end of the year, but if I can't it should be ready early to mid January. This chapter turned out to be a bit longer then normal. Thanks for being a fan of my story, I'll do my best to bring it out as soon as possible. 

I never released a v0.2.1.

Are you going to play it on windows, linux, or android.

I can just post the link here directly for you

They are there, just hit the download now button and above the optional donation just click the take me to the downloads, the links will pop up

Yes, I was going to make an update last Saturday about a possible release this coming weekend, but unfortunately lost power to my house over the weekend instead. I hope to still be able to release the next update this weekend. I'm about 75% done with this update, but I've been working more hours from my main job as of late so I might need an extra week. I will shoot for this weekend, but incase I can't I should have it for next week.      

I did mess around with aging characters like tamara and vanessa(after I posted V 0.1), but I couldn't really get them to look a way I would be satisfied with.   I came up with an idea that will address this in the next chapter, can't give any details to it yet, but hopefully readers  will enjoy it.

As for the inconsistencies of height and positioning. I am currently fixing those.

For the character proportions I can't really promise on changing that, since I would need to adjust said character for every render their in. for example I changed Juliet's sleeves(They looked like she was wearing cones) on her shirt from the party and that took me hours.   I can try out your suggestion for the makeup and glasses for Lilly in future chapters. 

As long as people are respectful with their critiques and input, I don't reading it no matter how long or short it is. Thanks for reading
