Mall Re-viewed
During the development of the mall location, I've wanted to try making it more of a top-down view than an internal view and see how people react. Turns out no one really complained about it, but I have to stick with how the game is viewed from the very first time it's made, which is an internal view. The mall view has been changed from top-down to internal.
Just when the game released as version 0.1.0, I already had a lot of ideas on what to implement in the game. One of the ideas was the ability to get a closer look at the scene. It was an ambitious idea, and after reviewing how good my pixel art was then, it wasn’t good, so I had to cancel the idea. One day, my friend reminded me of that idea again. I feel confident in my pixel art, so I gave ...

I'm going to do a weekly report from now on since last month I didn't do it, and this is better so you guys can know what to get in the early access.
Added an achievement system with 18 achievements implemented as of now for you to unlock. What I wanted in an achievement was to include gameplay effects when unlocking it, and so I made it happen.
An example is when you get the "Prom...

I made a poll stating that I will no longer be doing Patreon versions, and patrons can play the early access one week before the game gets released. A lot of people agreed to this, and now the game no longer has Patreon positions, and cheats are now available to everyone.
For the patrons, I’m sorry that the Early Access has a lot of bugs. It just happens whenever there is a new feature ...

Learn the Heart v0.2.1 EA includes Sex sounds, H-mode Immerse, 1 New added Item, 1 New location and 1 New dating minigame.
Sex sounds
As promised, because the goal has been reached on Patreon, sex sounds have been added to h-mode. The sex sound has its own system, and it's very flexible. What does flexible mean? It means I can hire other VAs to voice other personalitie...
I just finished making the two new positions in the last poll that won, which are ffm threesome and Sylvia, so here is another round of who will be given new positions. Also, I can only add FFM Threesome to the house because it only makes sense.
The system for the sound during H-mode is also finished; I just needed the right voice actress to make it work. You might be surprised by this ne...
2023-04-10 00:39:58 +0000 UTC View PostIt has now been decided how I will deliver content. There will be no more weekly updates or Patreon versions. Instead, patrons will get to play the Early Access build every third week of the month before the public release.
There is one thing that I didn't mention in the last poll: making Patreon-only positions requires that I make at least two positions in that area, so the first one i...
Whenever I release a new update, there are always new positions that are added and locked, and some positions that were locked are now unlocked. That's how it's been for months now, and believe me, it's really a pain to have separate builds for the Patreon version and the Public version. I've been thinking about releasing all the Patreon positions for some time now, so I don't have to make sepa...

Improved UI and small added changes
When a new player plays the game, they are often confused about where the date minigames in the area are. I added a step stone for the player to move to that area. It has two colors: the pink one represents the date minigame, and the blue one represents the date interaction.
For Newgrounds players, unfortunately, I cannot implement ...

2 New Positions
Added 1 new position for Eul and Sherryl. I didn't mention that I'm not having the poll in my last post because I was implementing the suggestions from my community in my discord.
Introduction to Eul and Caroline

Thank you for your support, everyone! Since the goal has been reached, I will now be finding a voice actress to add voice acting to the H-scenes. The H-scenes voice acting has its own mechanic and requires further testing because I didn't want it to just be moaning sounds just running on loop. I will be working on it next month since I already have plans for what to work on this month. The goal...

Learn the Heart v0.1.13 includes improved visuals for the game.
Improved visuals
When I was still new to pixel art, I used black lines just for any object, but now that I am better at pixel art, I feel like it doesn't look good for me. Most of the black lines have been recolored to match the object.
Also, the game before didn't have much going on in the bac...

When I first started making Learn the Heart, it was just a sex simulator. I wasn't good at my pixel art and programming back then, but I really wanted to improve. People giving feedback on the earlier version on what I did wrong and what to improve helps me as a developer moving forward.
The game was just a sex simulator back then, but I wanted more. I wanted the game to be fun and featur...

There isn't much yet to do there other than it's new a location, but I'm planning the park as a new dateable area.
Hello everyone, and a very happy new year in advance. Last week I said that I would be adding 4 positions, but I was too busy preparing for the new year.
Anyway, thank you for supporting this game. I have so many ideas I want to implement in this game, and I'll do my best to create content you won't expect.
Next month I will be working on giving story 2 to each partner, and hopefull...
