Hello there Steam people! I feel like this has become sort of a habit now, but I want to apoglize again for not updating you guys sooner. I'm extremely busy at the moment and also had to deal with some personal stuff. Still, that is not an apology and I promise to be more talkative here in the future. First, I want to talk a bit about Chapter I and some issues that appeared right after the release, mainly the savegame stuff. I don't really know why this happened and I'm sorry ( god I'm saying this a lot ) that some of you guys had to restart the game because your savegames were not working. I'm going to do my best that this won't happen again with Chapter II and will go through some extended testing to make sure everything will work. And if issues like that happen again then I will provide a function so you can just jump directly to the new chapter. Now, let's talk a bit more about the upcoming Chapter II. As you probably remembered, at the end of Chapter I the MC gets a call from Dr. Slatni, dropping a pretty important news for him and his family. Chapter II will start directly where you left off and will be a little different compared to the last Chapter. I think there is an easy way of describing the game so far: You had the prologue with some heavy dialogues and events that feature a more serious tone, then you had Chapter I which was more about the healing process and rekindling old relationships ( with some lewds ). Chapter II will be more like the prologue again, with heavier dialogues and more in depth decisions. Right at the beginning of Chapter II you will have to make a very important decision that will guide your way through the update. Make the "right" decision and you will get more wholesome events where the family supports each other again. Make the "wrong" decision and you will find out that some things can't be done alone. I'm not going to spoil more, but like I said it will be pretty important. I currently aim to release this update in early spring - My guess at the moment is April, but this might change. Keep in mind that Chapter II, just like Chapter I, will be a FREE update, just like every future update will be free if you bought the game. Now that you met all the girls that are part of the family it might be time to update the Steam screenshots and other things. It will be a longer progress because I have to see which images are fitting without spoiling too much of the story. I might also include some more lewd pictures now that we saw a few more girls naked in the game. So if you are interested in things like that, keep an eye out on the store page! I also wanted to address and clarify a few things again that came up in reviews and comments. I know I basically do this all the time but I'm afraid there is no way around it. The first thing is that the game is still in active development. The early access tag is there for a reason. This means the story is not completed yet - not even close. There is still a lot ( and I mean a lot ) of content coming - Story wise and in terms of lewds. I know that the current game doesn't feature that many lewds compared to others, but that is also not what I am aiming for. I always want to provide more of a story where the sexual content is an extra, not the main deciding factor. That's why I put the "warning" on the store page that there is a lot of reading involved. There are decisions in the game that will alter your game, but this is a Visual Novel, that means your "gameplay" is reading, no mini games or freeroam where you have to grind things. The other thing is that this is still a game. Some things will never be as realistic as they are in real life - Which is fine, in my opinion, because that's what games are for, I think. I don't want to create a game where people have to face problems they might also face in real life - be it financially or with a person they love and care about. I want to make games where people get attached to characters and care for them, in a positive way. Where you don't have to fear that you might lose a character if you make a "wrong" decision. The same goes for the looks of some characters. I know that Bethany might not look old enough to be a grandmother or that Anna and the MC look old enough to be parents of 5 daughters. I wanted to create good and cute looking characters and didn't go for accuracy or realism again. What I want to say with all of this is that expecting realism is okay, but that this is still a game. I don't want to talk more about the looks of the characters - I did that so many times. It's fine if you don't agree with me setting the ages like that, but there are other ways of saying this than to attack me or my game personally. That is all for now. Like I said in the beginning I'll do my best to update you guys some more - Maybe with a few more previews. In the meantime, have a few special renders I made in the last weeks!
