Title: Episode 6 – Behind The Curtain

News: This episode took a lot longer than I had planned for, but most of that is because of IRL stuff that takes precedence over this passion project. I’ve been going back and forth between story elements, music etc with this episode and I always second, third, fourth-guess myself.  Anyways, I hope you enjoy!

Changelog: I’ve changed some music and ambience to older episodes, but most of the added content is the new episode.

Added missing picture of the Murphy bathroom scene (Kissing).

Added a backround to the dialogue window.

There will be a ‘Crossroad’ in Episode 5, but, as of now, there’s only one route of the main story available. Right now I’m focusing on the straight/lesbian routes and the first ending.

I’ve listened to criticism (good and bad) and I’ll make sure these are corrected for Episode 6. As for season 2, I will change the way I render and create scenes. Rendering the whole scene with characters in it is inefficient with my PC’s capabilities and requires a lot of editing.

Season 2 will probably be in either first person, or more in the lines of Good Girl Gone Bad, with full character side images in dialogues between characters. Then I can use a more focused style with character actions, I.E. kissing, sex etc.

I have decided to rewrite the Murphy bathroom scene in Episode 4 somewhat, and by that I don’t mean I’ve deleted it entirely. I understand this kind of graphic content (SA) can be triggering for some people, so I’ve decided to give players more of a choice in this part to make sure we’re all on the same page and enjoying the game.

This inevitably means that I had to add a new variable that splits this Murphy path. Because of this you will have to rollback to before the bathroom scene (for the pervs who spied on Murphy… I guess that means everyone?!) to prevent bugs with future content in this path.

There are some more scenes in this episode I’d like to improve upon, but that won’t mean any changes to the variables overall, and it will have to wait until the full release of season 1 sometime in january next year.

Sorry for the inconvenience this cause. That’s it for now, I hope you enjoy the game! I’ll slink back to my hole and start working on the next episode. XoXo

Episode 4 – The Calm

No technical changes to the game. We’re continuing on our straight/bi/lesbian paths. Some of Jenny’s previous decisions might come back to haunt her, but she’s also warming up to her feelings about other people.

We’re introducing a few potential love interests, and we’re also visiting Emma’s mega ultra powerful family.

Episode 3 – Shadows

I’ve started introducing some of the variables needed for different paths for the later parts of the game and I had to take some time figuring things out to make sure everything was free of bugs.

Because of these new changes to episode 2, your old saves won’t work and you’ll have to start a new game or go back to your last save in episode 1.

That’s it for now, I’ll take a few days break and then start on Episode 4. There’s a few scenes I have in mind I need to render and add to the next episode, but then its mostly coding work left to do.

Episode 2 – Temptations.

No changes made to previous episode.

Focused a little bit more on the paths, and important decisions.

I’m slow-dripping in information about Jenny’s past / future while mainly building the world and the characters important in the first season.

I made a conscious decision on adding in a some explicit content this version, my first animation, which wasn’t meant to be implemented yet, but I gave it a go.

Let me know if you liked it!

Initial Release

(I have voice acting planned for this and future titles, which will serve as the main character’s inner voice. However, it is a costly service, adding to the expenses of an already expensive game. Since I handle all aspects of development myself, including rendering, coding, graphics, music and sound design, and screenwriting, these tasks are time-consuming. Therefore, voice acting will have to wait until the first season is completed. Once the first season is finished, I will add voice acting to create a full release version. Lastly, I hope you enjoy the game and follow future releases. I have tons planned and I’m working on episode 2 as we speak. /Barbiecued)
