So, I’m calling it: Testing week starts next week on the 9th, backer release for the 16th, public release the week after. It’ll be a fairly quiet release- most of the big advances were spoiled in the February update, so the only real changes are some chat dialogue, some additions to the Nonhuman District, and the new random quest baddies. Also, I’ve gone on a murderous bug-slaying rampage, so the game should run a lot smoother with many, many fixed issues. There are even some minor art updates- Bronwyn and Elaiya will have un-collared face images when you first encounter them.
The Elaiya face set thing was kind of a comedy of errors, too. When I exported the file, somehow the transparency was lost, and I accidentally re-imported the broken file before I could try moving the file from the Harem Collector directory manually. So on top of having to take off Elaiya’s collar, I also had to re-do the transparency on her image, which ate up a lot of time.
The new website is coming closer and closer to completion. There have been a lot of delays with it, but I’ve since learned to try and relax about it. Nobody comes here for the site itself, so it’s best to wait until it’s 100% ready to go rather than constantly set arbitrary deadlines.
As always, thanks for your support, and I’ll see you next week!
I didn’t even want to find the leaked release I just want to wait to play the public one
I would like to say, I love this game. It’s a great game. I enjoy the hell out of it. And I would also like to say that I have enough respect for you, Nomoshing, and what you’re trying to do that even after the leak had been made public, I have not gone looking for it, nor have I glanced at what the contents might be. And I doubt I’m alone among your fans in this. Some people have no patience, or are assholes that only care about the product and not the vision.
Keep doing what you do, and I’ll keep waiting patiently for each update. And if my work ever gives me a freaking raise, this is one of the first games I’ll patron.
Wow, thanks! Just so you know, I did make the release public. Please download it from badkittygames.net/games/hc guilt-free.
Glad to see others waiting for an offical release like I am rather then direspect you and download the leaked version I love this game and would rather just wait for the offical version release as to get the best quality and expirience you can offer and I just wanted to say I love your work and have for a while now and I hope you keep up the amazing work.
Thanks a lot!
