First, I'm sorry this is a few days late. In this case, it was less because I forgot (which has happened before) and more because there were so many other important notes and releases around the end/start of the month. I was trying not to bury the Chastity Quest release in particular, since I wanted as...

Okay! Sorry again that this is late, folks. It took me a couple hours longer than I wanted, even today, since I had to stop and fix a major bug with the Chastity Quest Release that I put out yesterday. At 6,400 words it's actually a touch shorter than I'd hoped as well. Though, surprisingly, that has nothing to do wi...

*Edit 3* Thanks to Troqu, a bug that I hope was causing most/all of the remaining blank/black screen issues has been found and fixed. There's a patch link that will take you from the Performace Fix version to the new Bugfix 3 Version, so you don't have to redownload the whole thing. Though the links will also soon be replaced with the Bugfix 3 version.

Okay, I'm somewhat calmer than I was yesterday. Just as stressed out, I'm afraid, but at least calmer. Sorry again for the profanity-laced ranting -_-. Not my normal thing, but I REALLY needed to bleed off some rage at the universe.
Anyway, the good news, such as it is, is that I did in fact figure out what the bug was. Unfortunately, the bad news is that I did, in fact, also h...
No, seriously. Please excuse the following profanity. Most of you probably long since realized that, despite being an adult game maker, I'm actually a rather polite fellow and don't curse much. Heck, I don't even write much crude/obscene language into my games, save for where it REALLY fits. However, if I do not get the following rant out somewhere, I am going to explode and likely mur...
2020-01-29 11:26:33 +0000 UTC View PostOh...shit. So, uh, I've kinda been so involved with cramming as much work on Chastity Quest in as I could, that I kinda forgot to put this up when I should have? Opps? Sorry! Thankfully, it shouldn't matter too much, since I'm putting at least two rooms (the next Asari room and the last 'other/gender' transform room) into the next build regardless of anything else. As such, I will focu...

Ugh. Not quite so good a report as the last two, I'm afraid. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I lost a half day today (well, technicality yesterday now). Combined with work on this last 'large' section fighting me more than the last couple of sections have, plus me throwing in something different for a couple of scenes for some variety, and I'm about a day in total behind where I'd hoped...

More good news, so far :-). I managed to wrap up the section section, the Inn, in just two days. That was about what I was hoping for, as it's a smaller section that the Blacksmith Shop. It essentially consists of one of the area's jobs, in this case the ability to practice the world's oldest profession. That job has six scenes, plus there's some minor interaction with the innkeeper (a place fo...

Alright, good news everyone! For once, my time estimate was right on target. I finished all of the Blacksmith areas content last night, after roughly three days of work. And did that despite a couple of sidetracks where I added a bit of extra content that wasn't originally planned, or had to stop and work in systems that hadn't been implemented yet. Better yet, the Blacksmith was one of the 3 l...

Alright! As soon as I finished up DoL for the month, I dove straight into hammering out Chastity Quest. I've already promised that I will be releasing a build for it this month and I'm determined to try my very best to make that the first build I originally intended. So far, that's going to plan. I managed to get the second Job of the game hammered out in two days. Adm...

$3+ Patrons, you have your own post, with the release of Build 11!
For everyone else, this is the Public Release post for Build 10 :-). Build 10 was/is among the largest releases ever, for DoL. Honestly, I kinda bit off more than I could chew with it...
Alright! This update is a little smaller than I'd originally hoped for. As any of you who have been following along with my progress reports should know, I was sick for over two weeks. First with the Flu, then with a nasty upper-respiratory infection I caught while my immune system was weakened from said Flu -_-. Bleck. In point of fact, I'm still not back fully to 100%. I am, thankfully, mostl...
2020-01-16 03:44:44 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, so the poll for this month's story finished with a pretty clear winner. Apparently, people liked the Mass Effect: The Final Error piece :-p! The $5+ patrons voted for it by a significant majority!
Now, unlike last month, this time it's going to go into the normal update pattern. That meaning that the next chapter will release for $5+ folks later this month...but it'll be an...

Alright, I'm going to keep the progress report bit short. Despite the fact that I'm still not back to 100% (lingering cough and energy levels are only, like, 70%), I managed to finish the Default True Ending for the Mental - Sub path in the typical 3 days. I'll be starting on the Lewdity version of the Mental- Sub path tonight. Unfortu...

Alright, so despite the fact that I'm still sick (fuck!), I've managed to finish the Lewdity ending for the Mental(dominant) path. Total image count being 79 new images!
It took about a day and a half longer than usual, because my energy levels suck, though thankfully I am slowly recovering. According to the docs (that finally had to be consulted, somewhat less than dir...
Alright, I'm still sick, but I'm beginning to see some improvement, mostly just brain fog and a nasty cough left -_-. Anyway, with that being the case, I've gathered enough energy to put up the poll for the story reward. Then another nap. That sounds nice...

I AM SO SORRY THAT THIS IS LATE. The reason it is...well, I'm going to make another post in a few minutes that has the explanation for that. Essentially, I've been extremely sick, and several things have simply not gotten done as a result. My apologies again :-(.

Bleck, woke up with 102.2 fever and trying not to vomit today. I'm super glad that I got the story releases out already, since I have a feeling I'm going to be mostly useless for a few days. Which means I'm probably not going to get much farther on Chastity Quest. Jillian is 100% done and I was planning to tackle the Blacksmith character next, hopefully finishing him and one of the minor charac...

Having said that, each of the remaining polls for DoL is likely to be a bit custom, in order to allow me to balance the remaining load. I discovered this month that I absolutely-positively-can't...

I was coming along fairly well with it yesterday...until the software I'm using crashed and destroyed upwards of 3 hours worth of work. At that point, after I finished several minutes worth of cursing, I took a deep ...

Well, I sort of made it on the 15th. The build is ready and currently uploading....but I know it's going to take longer than the next 15 minutes to finish. So, technically it'll be past midnight -_-. Eh, close enough. I did learn something valuable this time around, though. I've now done enough True Endings that I can say, explicitly, that they aren't the same effort as a 'room.' Rathe...

Because of that, I'm also opening the poll to All Patrons so I can get a lot of feedback quickly. On that n...
