So... Here's a new build!
And with it a lot of new... Features/Issues.
So let's be real here: I ended up finishing the Save system, way earlier than I thought I would thanks to a breakthrough I had. However, with the new system, a lot of new issues will arrive for you guys. But wait a second, let me explain:
The idea of reworking the save system cam...
2023-04-25 18:26:25 +0000 UTC View PostIn the next two to three days I will release the game's current build. These past two weeks I spent doing a lot of tests, but the truth is: There's no way for me to fetch all bugs by myself. So far I can guarantee the new save system works, so here's what I need you all to understand:
1 - Saves from two builds below the current one will trigger a message asking you to load your...
2023-04-24 05:38:41 +0000 UTC View PostHey there guys, I'm just here to tell you guys that yeah, making the Save System will take a while but not AS LONG as I thought. I am having a lot of bugs and yeah, the system breaks Saving and Deleting for now, it'll take a while for me to figure out how to make sure everything works, but in the worst-case scenario, all I need to do is to make the current code comment and restore the old one.<...
2023-04-11 19:20:22 +0000 UTC View PostThis month we have a tie.
I have two options, starting updating the Save System or adding KArnal's new route.
What I will do is this:
I will dedicate the next seven days into trying to update the Save System, if I notice it's too big of a task for me to finish this month, I will start on Karnal's route instead.
From this month onward I changed the layout of the Monthly Thanks Message. It's bigger, has more space and it's adaptable for the number of patrons of the month. It's also easier to edit and less heavy in the editor.
Finally, this image will also be posted on Twitter and the Tele...

Just a heads-up for you all!
I'm working on Wagner's route now and it's about 60% done, I need to check the text, and finish a few routes before I start putting on the game, so far at this pacing I can finish everything by day 25 of this month!
Remember: If you're a patron and you're reading this after day 25 your name will be in the next build, I will only ad...
2023-03-16 22:46:51 +0000 UTC View PostHello there guys, I took a little time off today to re-arrange the Monthly Thanks Message. I changed it to be a little more streamlined and I can even change the backgrounds of it with some of the game backgrounds with some blur, I'll keep cycling between them from now on to give it a difference now and then.
This new design is meant to fit more patrons' names in case we have a...
2023-03-06 22:03:17 +0000 UTC View PostThe poll for this month's workload ended today, and here are the results:
Enhancing the Save System is still a priority however, just like the skip dialog animation bug situation, it's something I will keep pushing on polls. After a while, if more patrons start calling out t...

Hey there guys, I'll be brief with you all today.
As always, I want to say thank you for supporting this game up to this month. I really hope every single one of you can be here with me for the next month.
In a few days from now, the poll for the next month's workload will be done and I'll be announcing what will be the next Build's content. If you want to vote, remember you need to...

Hey there guys, today I bring you all the Build 0.45.0.0 one day earlier.
There are a few notes I want to tell you guys before you download this build:
Given an error a Patron related in the previous build, an error I was unable to reproduce here, I came to the conclus...
2023-02-24 15:51:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey there guys, today I already posted the Wagner Plot Route Part 2 for Tier 4 patrons on their Telegram group a day or two ago, so if you're a tier 4 and didn't get the epub, go there to fetch it and read the original script.
I'll be putting the script inside the game now, while I'm also trying to fetch some issues a patron found yesterday. Sadly I wasn't able to reproduce it on my PC, b...
2023-02-21 20:18:12 +0000 UTC View PostTwitter is a mess!
Given that every single sign Twitter is giving the last few days and months indicate that its new CEO wants to make that a paywall of a website, and I am NOT making that much money to throw away, and given the fact that I need to have somewhere to publish stuff publicly to anyone who's outside Patreon, I decided to do the following:
Hello there guys. I'm here just to give you all a heads up on the next update for the game.
The pool ended today, and what tier 3 and 4 patrons decided this month is: Write the second plot route for Wagner!
Plot routes are pretty massive, they usually have the same amount of words as all 8 routes combined on a segment.
As always, I ...

Hey there guys, this is a special message for my current patrons of this month.
Another month is over, and I was able to write so much more for the game, I'm glad I could do it. It is thanks to your support that I can make this game all alone.
So for this, I want to thank you all, my Tier 4 Patrons who so kindly give me extra assistance and support, and m...

Hey there guys, I'll be quick today because I'm super tired.
I just finished this build and I wanna rest.
Here's the changelog:
About Karnal's new route: I will check it better later, but if any of you find inconsistencies with the text, for example: If during Day 4 to 6 in...
2023-01-28 15:52:13 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys. I finally finished checking the filter system's last day and the script for Karnal's first PLOT route.
I do need to check the days because I think I may have written in the game something about Aiden's work that would be conflicting with the current text, but that's just a feeling. I remember always keeping the main routes vague regarding what kind of work Aiden does. Which is o...
2023-01-22 16:47:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey there guys. After two days of trying to find out why I couldn't access Patreon, I finally found it was the DNS screwing with me! I'm here now though, and I'll tell you what I will be doing for the next build.
My tier 3 and 4 patrons voted for:
43% on a good s...

Hey there guys, this is the 35th time I come here at the end of the month to thank you all for your support. It's been more than three years working here on Patreon, and almost five years making this project a reality.
I work alone, and there's so much to do, and so much to be done yet. However, it's thanks to you all that I'm able to sit at my desk and just work calmly on my projec...

Just Friends Build 0.43.0.0 is now released. This build doesn't have a lot of changes like the last one, but that was to be expected considering how the last build fixed a lot of lingering issues with the filter system for the game.
I still have some issues to fix with the filter system (mostly related to the usage of a timer for the animations, I think it's possible to do this...
2022-12-25 19:45:56 +0000 UTC View PostThe next build will be released between the 25 and 28 of December. I'm having a little trouble writing Karnal's route (Yes that's what I decided to do), because I love to read what I did and think it was sh**, so I keep re-working on it and I decided to restart half of it to make it better. Still, that's just the process I always go through every month, I spent half of the time re-writing somet...
2022-12-18 05:41:17 +0000 UTC View PostHey there guys, I'm just here to deliver a quick update. December's Build content was decided by my Tier 3 patrons.
And by decided I mean, they decided to give me a choice this month!
The pool this month was a tie between adding Wagner or Karnal's route (33% each) or adding Wagner's PLOT route (Five remaining with 33% of votes). I can only think you guys really enjo...

Hey there guys, are you all right? I hope the current build for you all is good and a pleasant one to play with the new filter system. I was about to manually apply a filter to each background and put the different variations to the game but that would take the size of the game and shoot it to the sky. That was the last resort, and I'm glad my time studying tweens helped (and yes, tween is the ...

Hoo boy if there's a thing or two I want to talk with you all here today! So, first, lemme give you guys the changelog for this build:
Hey there guys, are you all right?
So I already finished the script for the game, yesterday actually. However, I need some time to put it into the game. Not only that I'm trying to do a quick sweep on Karnal's Day3.JSON to check if we spend the entire day with him at the bar because when we're inside the hotel or the bar, the filter is always Day Time. But I need to check the passage of t...
2022-11-23 14:07:53 +0000 UTC View PostHey there guys, I'm just here to tell you all that the tier 3+ pool ended and it's a tie between KArnal's next Route and Wagner's next PLOT route. I'll be considering the next few days what would be the better thing to do right now.
So, I will probably choose between one of them, I'm more inclined to Karnal's next route. But since it's been a while I will read what I have saved here...

Hey there guys, are you all right? Today I have a few things to say.
First of all, I'm so sorry to all of my patrons from the previous month. I inversed the color for Tier 2 and 3 patrons. The position of the patrons in the new scheme is the same, Tier 3 is always on the side or below Tier 4, Tier 2 is always below those two, and Tier 1 is always below or at the side of Tier 2 patrons in ...

Hey guys, are you allright?
I'm here to tell you all about the previous pool for this month's development. Tier 3 and 4 patrons, decided to vote for: Create a Filter System for the game.
Since this topic is a little more complex than just writing the text for the game, I decided it was worth creating a new Development Update for you all.
What this would imply? Let's go for the...

Hey there guys, I decided to so some changes to the image of current patrons for this month's onward, since sometimes it takes hours for me to do everything in the old layout.
First I removed the New Patron label, and now I'll be only showing in the picture below the current patron and their tiers.
I also changed how I can arrange them, essentially I changed th...
