Nice work - especially the twist for the last run through.

Congrats on the anniversary! 

I joined the journey partway through MNF, and I've enjoyed every line since then. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: in the AVN field, there are two or three writers setting the gold standard for world building and character development - Killer 7, Talothrel, and Victor Seven. Replayability is one thing; and you can tell that damn officer this, but the mark of a great writer is when you find yourself skipping the adults scenes just to enjoy the story. I know, I know. What's the bloody point of the sex if I'm just gonna ignore it? Well, if others like it, fine, but I'll enjoy the story my way, TVM.

Here's to plenty more years, and to calmer seas.

Woof! That was a great episode!

It was nice to see bits come together that seemed to be on separate paths, although I am now very worried about Saarya. You have a wonderful knack for world-building and character creation.

Oh. My. F***ing. Gods.

I've just started a playthrough of what there is so far of My New Memories.

He's just gone into the library to look up some details about his life, and the computer screen has the front page of a newspaper showing.

I've just seen the name of the newspaper.

You sneaky, sneaky bastard.

Much as we appreciate the updates (and believe me, you're a lot more vocal than many more ... 'productive' people), please take time for yourself. I've had COVID myself, and it's certainly no laughing matter, so don't feel bad about not being able to do anything. We can wait.

Quick thought - I'm playing through again, and just reached the part where MC accompanies Druthari to the dorms for the first time. In that scene, she is introduced to the concept of martial arts, forms, and sparring.

Are you planning on following on that idea? If so, would there possibly be some interaction with Jade? I mean, since Jade is female, Druthari might be able to concentrate more...

Makes sense to alter your definition of the game/story. I've always felt it is a visual novel first, porn second situation.

That guy sounds like a cocky little git. Hopefully, that will backfire on them spectacularly. Of course, what we're all really hoping for is for a positive end for you ASAP.

I think it's absolutely astonishing you still manage to make these posts in the face of all the crap that you're struggling with. Many lesser mortals would have given up by now. Kudos to you, sir.

Good luck for your hearing - although I reckon you'll be absolutely fine in any case. Just concentrate on being ok in yourself, we can wait for any updates.

The plot thickens... well plots, plural.

Here's hoping there's a good end for you coming soon.

Vic, don't worry about it; your health and survival are far more important than a little game. As long as we get some kind of progress report or update, all is good. Even if you have to full stop for a short period, just let us know. Most of us will understand, even if it may not be what we want to hear. And anyone who starts getting all Karen about it can go fuck themselves with a scaffold pole.

Nice! Thanks for taking the effort to go the extra mile on MNF. Quick question though - is there a family patch, or can we use the one for the base game?

Thanks for all your hard work on your games, and congratulations on completing what is one of my favourite VNs. In fact, I rate you (along with Talothrel of Terminus fame) as one of the two best relationship writers out there. 
Here's to the future - may it be so bright that dark glasses are required.

Thank you for all your hard work on this project - and to everyone who helped you. This has been a wonderful story with great characters, and the teasing for MNF2 is perfect. 

What gets me is how you have managed to keep going through all the problems/crises, even to the point of "well, I can't do any of A, so I'll use what I can and work on B or even C.

Kudos to you.

For my part - and I'm aware this is just my own preference - I do prefer when visual novels adhere more to the 'novel' side of things ie: I'm more or less a passive witness to what you provide. That said, I do like it when options are presented to us that result in good/bad/alternative endings. IMHO, Talothral's 'Terminus Reach: Sentinel' (parts 1 and 2) are the gold standard for this style. 

I actually find myself going back to certain titles, just to read the plot - and skip through the sex scenes... lol. Talothral, along with Killer7 and yourself have the best writing - especially for interpersonal exchanges and character development.

So, yeah. Change things up as and when you feel it necessary, and learn as you go. That said, while changing the writing is all fine and dandy, I'm not too sure whether switching up the game style is as justifiable. You began World's Crossing as  one thing, and perhaps it's better to keep it as that, and change for the next actual game. Of course, that's just my own preference, and an argument can be made that each arc IS a separate game.  Whatever happens, I'm here to see what goes on, because I'm loving the writing.

Sorry it's all gone to crap for you at the moment. Even Mary and Becca look concerned for you!

Take your time, and we'll wait. For us, it's a minor inconvenience, but it's a serious issue for you, so please focus on yourself. I know it's trite (and often unhelpful), but please be kind to yourself, even if it means taking a step back from all this - and us.

"The maiden, the mother and... the other one."

Have you been reading Terry Pratchett?

So happy to see this today - I was literally thinking about the game just yesterday, so having the next instalment to play is very welcome.

Mate, take your time. Grief is never easy at the best of times, and official crap doesn't help. We can wait.

Yay for (what I hope is) Nook being cuddled!

Ditto!

Always nice to read these updates, but don't be so hard on yourself; illness happens. Sure, we can take measures to prevent episodes, but the possibility will never be zero. If you ever feel too crap to do something, then it's time to take care of yourself. You're a fantastic communicator, and we know you'll never leave us hanging out to dry. Just post a little note, and we'll be fine. I mean, you update us once a week anyway, so it's not like we're in the dark. Just be kind to yourself.

Anyhow, something occurred to me a while ago while I was replaying the recent updates of MNF. In one scene, MC and Maddie were having fun. When they finished, Lucy commented (from another room, ofc) that she was listening to music with both sets of ears - not that it helped. It got me thinking though - what if Lucy could experience a sort of surround sound experience with the right set(s) of headphones? Just wondering.

If I haven't said it before, I'll say it now - you are fantastic at writing relationships.

Pretty much the only thing I don't like about the current design is Sun's look. It's barely detailed at all, and it makes it a bit Uncanny Valley

I still say you have the best grasp of Honey Select; while being slightly cartoonish, your characters are attractive and believable.

This all sounds wonderfully epic in nature: I'm rather looking forward to this!

Slow and steady wins the race. Don't burn yourself out for us, please. 

Fair enough - thanks for the reply

Am I missing something? Does the first season of this game really end with MC waiting for Serafina to turn up? It's a very bizarre and abrupt way to finish things.

Reached the end of this update. It was as good and wonderful as expected. The big event was absolutely perfect. 

Now. there was a hell of a partial reveal this week. It's one that I'm frankly embarrassed for not thinking of myself, but it's very welcome, makes perfect sense, and bodes well for a sequel. Damn. I can't wait, now...

Oh gods, the humour is on point! Death Glare Alice FTW
