Smile for the Camera | Weekly Recap

Hi all. :)

Thank you for your continued support!

This week, most of the work went into June's scene, with a bit of time dedicated to the upcoming Valentine's Day mini image-set.

The first poll of this update cycle is now live!
It will allow you to vote for the next scene to be developed.

Work done this week:

• ~50 new images.
• Made the Valentine's Day image-set.
• Fixed a few minor bugs that were found in v0.1.5b.

So, now that June's scene has gotten more developed, let's see what it will entail. :)
As always, keep in mind that some things might change during development.

*** SPOILERS AHEAD ***

The scene takes place in the morning.
Charlee and Tiffany are at school, and MC will find himself alone with June.

While reading a book on the couch, she will spot MC walking by, and will promptly ask him why he isn't at school.
Instead of answering, MC will shift the conversation to the realtor, and the pictures that June was supposed to send her.

Here, players will have two possible dialogues choices, depending on which path was taken in June's previous story scene.
If the player has seen both paths for the aforementioned scene, then both options will be available.

While this choice will affect the dialogues (and point gains) in the following conversation, MC will eventually ask for the realtor's phone number, which after a bit of uncertainty from on June's part, will be given to him.

After texting the pictures (or lack there of) to the woman, she will let MC know that she's on her way to the house.
June won't be thrilled about it, but before she can even ask to postpone the visit, the realtor will let herself in.

Worried that MC will discover more info regarding her deal for the house, June will ask him to wait in his room, but the other woman will quickly shut that down, demanding that MC remains, as he is now involved.

Once again players will have a couple of dialogue choices, allowing them to either side with June or the realtor.
This choice will influence the direction of the next convo, but in both cases MC will end up remaining.

The realtor will then let MC and his "caretaker" know that she was originally coming by to begin the eviction process, seeing how June was not upholding her end of the deal, bbut since MC sent her the photos (or pretended to), she is willing to give one final chance.

Pressured by her employer, the woman will demand another photoshoot to take place, right then and there, and will ask MC to be the photographer, as he seems eager to take part.
Of course, June will strongly oppose this idea.

Spited by June's refusal, the realtor will then propose a "better" solution.
She will say that since MC is such a cute boy, it would be a waste to keep him behind the camera, and that perhaps he would be better suited to model alongside his "caretaker".
June will not like this option either.

The realtor will then give the two a moment to decide what to do, but not before reminding them what's at stake.
While June will be against letting MC get involved in any way, he will be able to convince to let him take part.
This is where the scene will fully branch out into the Feelings and Respect path.

Feelings path.

In the Feelings path, MC will offer himself as the model, in an effort to make June more comfortable by taking some of the attention away from her.
She will initially be reluctant, but after MC delivers a rallying speech on how they'll be able to overcome anything together, June will be moved by his gallantry and she'll accept.

I don't want to spoil too much (maybe next week, hehe), but this path will see MC pose alongside June, as the realtor directs them.
Of course, this means that he will be getting very close to her, giving him plenty of opportunities to touch and feel her voluptuous body.

At the end of this path, MC will have the chance to tamper with the camera without the realtor noticing.
This will allow him to send the woman on her way without any pictures of June.

Respect path.

In the respect path, MC will opt to be the photographer, leveraging the threat of eviction to get June to comply.

In this path MC will not only be taking pictures of June, but he'll also help direct the shoot by choosing a couple poses, and he will even get a chance to get his hands on June's body under the pretense of adjusting her pose.

The Respect path will see MC earn the favor of the realtor, who will hint at MC's interest in June, and how it would benefit him if they kept working together.

Both of these paths will take place inside the locked room, which will finally be opened by the realtor once MC has made his choice.
While it might appear to be a normal bedroom at a first glance, MC will quickly notice that beside the large bed, the room also features a professional camera, a glass table with some kind of beverage and a tall, regal looking chair.

The scene will have two different endings, depending on the path taken.
The Feelings ending will focus on June's appreciation of MC's help in dealing with the situation, and will see her unveiling a bit more info regarding the deal that she made for the house.
The Respect ending will focus on the cooperation between MC and the realtor, who will reveal the real purpose of the "secret" room.

*** END OF SPOILERS ***

As of today, the scene has been produced up to branching part, so this coming week I'll be working on the Feelings and Respect paths.

As mentioned in the last recap, I'll also be giving one of June's other scenes a couple of extra outcomes, which will be unlocked upon viewing this new scene.

Afterwards, development will move to whichever scene gets picked in the new poll.

Anyway, stay tuned for the Valentine's Day mini image-set, coming February 14th!

That's all for this week's recap.

Thank you, have a great week! <3
