I'm thinking I should create a specific account on Twitter and Bluesky for Just Friends, instead of using my personal account, especially since this means only posting stuff about the game and liking other game project pages instead of having a variety of stuff posted there from pollitics to other subjects.
It's a bit of work though, so I want to ask you guys this, should I mak...

Hey guys. I just wanted to come here to say thank you to all of you who are here supporting me this month. You guys are awesome. Thank you so much, it's because of you guys that we're almost getting to the first goal of this patron, which is making around 300 USD a month. After that, any extra money will be solely used to invest more and more in this game to make sure it's completed with lots o...

Thank you all for the wait. The heatwave hitting my country is making it very hard to concentrate and make a good quality work, but it's here at last!

Just a quick reminder: By Day 29 or a bit earlier if I'm lucky, the next build will be available for you guys to get it. Remember, current Tier 2+ patrons will receive the password for the next build automatically, so don't worry about it, just check your inbox once the game is released.
If you joining Tier 2+ after the build is released, please ask me via message here to send you the pas...

This is a Public Update, therefore there will be no in-depth explanation about the mechanics or development process of the game here.
Hello guys, how are you all doing? I'm here just to tell you all about the poll result for the next build! :D
So here's the results.

This build is very simple, it mostly has the new routes for Johan only. Since I had some health problems, it took me some time to finish everything, but it's ready now!
Here's the small changelog:

I'm here just to tell you all the results of this month's Workload poll, available only for Tier 3+ patrons to vote.
For now, Johan's route won the poll again, which makes me happy because I do want to write MORE about him for a while, he's a nice character. It's nice to be able to write about a character I don't need to worry too much about making him the most amazing guy or the bi...

Tier 4 patrons have now access to Johan's 1st Day routes as Ebook. The book format of the game's script is slightly different than the end version in the game, it contains more words. For the ebook itself, so far, the story has around 8900 words. That's quite big actually.
Now I will start the slow and boring process of putting the original script into the game. Like I sa...

Hello there. Today I have some news, explanations, and other things to talk to you all.
I'm going to try to divide this into different topics, so here we go:

So, this month’s is a sad one for me. This is not the first time I have had to delete old builds, but it’s the first I have to do it because of wide-scale leaks. Patreon system is not perfect, th...

Hey there people! I'm here to tell you all the results of the Pool from this month.
Winning on 6 x 1, Johan's first route will be added.
Johan's route is a bit longer than the other two, while Karnal and Wagner both have 3 acts, Johan has those acts divided into two segments, making his route twice as long as Karnal and Wagner's on Day 1. NOt only that, Johan's first Affi...

Just a reminder: Tier 4 patrons now have access to Wagner's first-day route in the ebook format. I call that Just Friends - The book version. The text is adapted for ebook reading, it feels just like reading a normal novel. It's a small way of saying thank you to my Tier 4 patrons! And it's also a good way to remember the story if you don't have a computer with you of course!

Hello there! How are you all doing today?
I have some very... Upsetting news about Just Friends as a project.
I've been thinking about this for years, literally, and for the longest time I decided it wasn't worth touching it, after all, if you guys are here supporting me, it doesn't matter. But I always kept thinking of a way to circumvent this issue.
It seems, Just Friends is...

This is an update to my Tier 4 Patrons.
If you're a tier 4 patron, you can now see six new sprites for Johan already done on the Telegram Group. The telegram group is only accessible to currently paying Tier 4 members, it's my personal way to give them any extra content earlier.
By the end of this month, Johan will be available for Tier 3 patrons to check his new design and sp...

This month we had a tie between Wagner's next plot route (it seems you guys enjoyed his plot routes so far) and more of Karnal's normal regular routes.
I will try to do both but I doubt I can and keep the same level of quallity so I will start with Karnal's route first, if for some miracle I finish it earlier I can try doing Wagner's too. But consider Karnal's one the deal for ...

Quick update for you all.
KArnal won another route for this month. The release date for this month's build will be between days 28 and 30.
I also want to tell that the new character is almost done, there's just a few things to do for him, and all of his expressions. But as soon as he's done with at least ONE expression I will write his route. Meaning, if he's done, the ne...

You guys on Tier 3 voted, and so far, Karnal's route won again! :D
That's good, it's easier to keep up from where I stopped.
I do want to check if I can install Scrivener on a Linux system, Windows is draining my laptop way too much and I'm stress-testing my laptop while writing those routes to see if it's good enough for me to work while traveling. Gotta visit my parents afte...

Hey there guys, today is the last day of the month.
I'm still recovering so today I won't do the poll for tier 3 patrons, sorry, the poll will happen tomorrow probably, with a duration of 5 days or so.

Hey there, just coming here to give you all a heads up on the project's work.
So, for this month Karnal's route is the next route to be done, I'm working on it but since the start of this month I started having some health complications that I'm already doing my best to fix, but because of that I wasn't able to work a few days, so the next Build will be up and running around d...

This month was a tie. I can choose between Karnal and Wagner, and since Wagner is almost at the end of this current day (Only two or three more segments) I will do Karnal first since there's a lot for him to end this day too.
I am still waiting for the new character, once he's fully realized I will start working on his route for the next update first. The next character will al...
