Hey guys! Going through the latest draft build, it struck us that we could make one of the scenes have a little more pizazz, and we wanted to open it up to you guys for input!
So here's the scene:
You've just gotten your farmgirl neighbor a lovely little silver cowbell trinket from the market. You decide you will visit her home to give her the gift, and find her doing the laund...

Here's the full resolution image so you guys can make out what's even being served at the picnic. Mm, mm, I can smell Balgair's haggis recipe from here!
The in-game version has animated clouds and sun-glow... we'll have to put our heads together to see if there's a feasible way to animate the crowd, too!

Spring has sprung, and it's a lovely day for a picnic in the Highlands! It looks like the whole town showed up (or at least it feels like it, after drawing all those silhouettes! :P). Join your neighbors and come have some fun!

2018-02-27 04:04:48 +0000 UTC View PostHello Beta Tester Tier!
It's that time again! This month's Beta build features the entirety of Chapter 1, at long last linking us up to the Jessie content from the demo. There's quite a few pathways featuring all three girls, so enjoy building those relationships with your waifu of choice!
Here's two of the brand new backgrounds in high definition, so you can see all those individually rendered stained glass panels!
(No, this chapter doesn't have a wedding scene... but maybe a later one will :3 )
With the new build comes new backgrounds, and I wanted to share with you how they look now that we've funded their animation! We've got moving clouds and flickering sunlight...
...dust particles and glimmering sunbeams...

If you play your cards right, maybe Grace will take you to see her secret place!
This upcoming build has multiple dates with all three MacLeod girls, 6 endings, and all sorts of paths to get there. As a result we ended up play-testing last week to make sure all those paths were working correctly, but with that out of the way, we're kicking new image asset production into full gear: new spr...

We've made a patch that fixes a few bugs in last week's release! If you've already played through, feel free to skip this one—but we did add an Easter Egg for the completionists among you! The full change log is attached. Thanks for playing!
We're coding the second half of Chapter 1 now, but to let our authors keep out in front, we're asking you which girl's story line we should focus on next. Hopefully you've had a chance to meet them all in the latest build!
So once we've released the rest of Chapter 1, whose chapter will we focus on next?

Hello Beta Tester Tier!
We have today for your playing enjoyment the next (technically first!) installment in the story, the first three days of Chapter 1! It plays about as long as the demo, but has a fair amount more content because it includes branching story lines. Apart from a few art assets that we will flesh out while you are testing it, it is good to go.
By now hopefully all of you have received and read the notice from Patreon that, starting Dec. 18, credit card processing fees will now be charged to patrons instead of the creator, and at a flat rate. If you are supporting other creators, you may have heard that a lot of us do not agree with this restructuring.
I won't make you guys sit through another creator complaining about the change...
