Illustrated Dev Diary, June 28th, 2024
🕑 Added 2024-06-28 12:00:14 +0000 UTCOkay, so I went a bit nuts on the Roxy lewd scene. I ended up with 20 animated sequences, which have been rendering all week and finished up about an hour ago. So, no story renders were done this week, but a hefty 2,647 frames of animations were done, which is the maximum I can output in a single week.
I did finally add 'bones' to the ass cheeks on the girls. This adds for some more 'jiggly' action, as none of these models have naturally moving asses without using morphs.
All in all, it's a great scene. And here's a little preview (ruined by YouTube compression, but still).

I also made some changes to Episode 2 in preparation for the Steam version. Games with school uniforms have been banned from Steam before. So, I decided to re-render those few images in the Paige flashback to avoid getting rejected.
If a game is rejected by Valve, it is banned forever and can never be re-submitted to Steam. U4iA is too big of an investment in both time and money to take that chance.
While looking at the first two episodes, I made some changes to the sound. Now, the music will adjust to the scenery; for example, at the club, the music will sound muffled when you go to the bathroom.
Someone mentioned that there's not much phone content yet, which is true. After season 1 (episodes 1-4) is completed and released here on Patreon, I will add content to the phone before it hits Steam which should be about a month after the Patreon release. This will also include new lewd scenes connected to Sergei's app, messaging, camera opportunities, and the new Lovelyfans app you will get access to in this episode.
I know many of you who support me here on Patreon also plan to pick up the game on Steam. This way, you will get quite a bit of new content if you do.
In total, we're at 13,156 animated frames and 2,146 story renders.
Have a nice weekend, and stay safe out there.

You made a good decision Drifty.

Also somewhere else as it is blocked in Steam, most probably in GoG as well. in my Country?

Speaking of patreons that plan on picking the game up elsewhere as well - any plans of GOG release?

Thank you for the update. Keep up the good work and have a good weekend. :)

I for one would be willing to get both to support you Drifty. Usually I like to get games first then buy so I can invest in creators I like. Leap Of Faith was my gateway and I purchased on steam to support. And now I support you here as well. 2 versions is fine. Love your work.

good thing is that some developers just change the Steam version but keep a patreon version censor free which i download and override the steam version. not sure if that is something Drifty is willing to do because of the project size, but no worries, i'm here for the story above lewds.

Agreed. It happens everywhere with "adult" games (YouTube etc., even Patreon to a degree). Nobody will invest money in a place where these kind of content can be ligały sold to adults cuz' it's "porn" after all and they'll make up some PR BS but still make money out of this while censoring what they can. Banning something is easy it doesn't require money or effort cuz' it's arbitrary and fast. Funny enough nobody bans violence in games or on YT with those patostreamers doin' what they want. Why, cuz' it's broad audience so it's way more money nobody will risk losing that big of a market. Pure hypocrisy
Spotastic
I was gonna say something similar. Especially given how often games take place in school settings, that seems really odd as a reason to ban something...

I'm sick of censorship. I understand why you did it and steam is not the worst offender, but still... so infuriating.
