About
Each episode is a self-contained short story told through AI-generated images, not a branching adventure with save points to fuss over. The writing and code are handmade even if the visuals aren't, and the stories lean into cheating, domination, and other messy human arrangements rather than one clean romance arc. You read, you click through, the story ends, you move to the next one.
Changelog
v0.7.5 (re-release)
- Fixed centered text for choice menus. Text is now true centered and works when changing window size
- Added choice for pegging scene between the woman and the man on day 3
- Enabled custom naming of characters.
- Because of name variables changing with this re-release, a restart of the novel is required, but you can jump to day 2 or 3 directly and still be given the option to change names.
- You don't have to rename all characters, using default for some will also work. Ie, in text they will be referenced as "the girl", "the woman" etc if not changed.
- I will not bother with changing version or requesting a promotion of the re-release on F95, the changes are too minor imho.
- I left the links to datanodes containing the old pre re-release version.
v0.7.5
- VN upscaled to true 1080 and images compressed to webp
- 1 video generation for day 1
- 12 video generations for day 2
- A few changes to images and text for day 1 & 2
- Around 120 new images for day 3
- Minor tweaks for menu choices (I am aware that changing size of the window will cause issues in the first choice menu about cum-eating due to the text location being hardcoded in pixels, I am trying to figure out how to fix that. This is my first ren'py VN so I am still learning)
v0.7.0
- Complete day 2
- A few new images on day 1
- Android version
- Cum eating is optional, a choice when starting the novel to disable
- Test with audio for one scene
v0.6.5
- Continuation of day 2
- I made the decision to move scenes that were intended for day 3, it just fit better with the story.
- This means it took way longer for this update than planned.
- There are still things that are a bit inconsistent in the images, hair color, shirts suddenly missing etc.
- These will be corrected at a later stage, but with the risk of burnout (I have worked really hard on this update) I decided to share a 0.6.5 version instead of holding on.
- There is a prebuild made for android in the comment section. If users confirm it works, I will create a new build and upload.
- I have no way of testing for android and I don't want to share stuff I can't confirm is working or not...
v0.6
- Initial release: Story 1 - Day 1
