  Hello all! Production is rolling right along, and testers who get monthly builds now have ver 0.52.It includes:Heavy work on text edits and new sprites, including finishing the introductory scene for these folks:More art, both digitally drawn or hand-painted in watercolor. And a lot more photobashed backgrounds. Most of them are my photos, but Tsush has helped me out when I'm too much of a coward to really get in and get the shot I need.Overhauls to the CG, BG and Comic Galleries,A new Music Room,Menu reconfiguration,Credit updates,Various bug and typo fixes.Thank you so much to everyone who's wishlisted the game so far!

The turnout for this one was great last year, so get ready to find a lot of undiscovered gems for your wishlist. And if you're here from the festival, then heya! Enjoy dark stories with darker romances? Check out our demo and wishlist NPF today!And speaking of NPF, I just updated the demo to ver 0.48.3, which adds a wishlist button to the title screen. But behind the scenes, a lot more has been happening! Early readers liked last month's rewrites. But those aren't as flashy to show off as the art is. I've been painting quite a lot lately; here's a shot of a WIP background:And then its use in-game:I've been thinking about doing a spotlight on showing off more work-in-progress shots, and I post them frequently on my Patreon and BlueSky. But I could post them here too, so let me know…

• April 2026 - Production Coming Along Well! - 20 April 2026

  Hey all, Royce here! I've been hard at work on the rest of the game!The first full playable draft of the game was done and coded in January. I've finished the first structure edit, and I've added almost all of the final sprites. The game's gone from what was once a tiny, one-shot game for my Patreon backers in 2022:To a deeply branching, 250,000 word game, with limited animation and cinematography:I've finished most of the sprites so far, also! I had placeholders while writing the first draft:But I'm quite happy with how folks are looking now:And of course, some of those sprites also have animated expressions:I've also been adding final CGs. Here's an old placeholder:And here's the version I recently painted, scanned, and added to the game:One thing that's harder to show off is the way I'm adding camera movement to most of the CGs. A a medium, visual novels are most frequently treated a…

• Demo Updated to ver 0.48.2 - 27 February 2026

  Just one more quick update to the demo and the patreon build. This adds:Diegesis' animated sprite! This isn't the most important thing, but it would have to get in there sometime anyway,Minor expression tweaks,A menuing bugfix,Some updates to how Streaming Mode censors the Stagehands scene. Big shoutout to Dusty Manson Otome for giving me some solid advice on what specific content could get Youtubers in trouble. I'll be better able to edit going forward. Click that link for Dusty's LP of the 0.48.1 version of the demo!Various other typo and bug fixes.Nothing else for now. If you still haven't checked out the new beginning to the game, get in there and enjoy!

• Demo Updated! - 19 February 2026

  Hey all! The Demo has been updated to ver 0.48.1, which adds two new CGs and one new sprite. The CGs are viewable in the extras gallery once unlocked.I don't plan on doing frequent updates to the demo; I'm hard at work on the structure edit for NPF and painting final art. But since the demo is the beginning of the game, it seemed silly not to share these with you all.Anyway, hang in there, folks. We're nearly through February. You got this, and I'll see you all later.
