We are NO LONGER on pause...
🕑 Added 2017-11-14 05:25:39 +0000 UTC EDIT: As of February, 2018 we're no longer on pause! Yay! Thanks for sticking with us. :)Giselle here. I wanted to let all of our patrons know that you will not be charged over the coming billing cycles while we finish up the latest update to the game. Once you've had the first charge put through, no further charges will be made to your accounts until after we release the next update.
We are still working on FLSM.
I personally had some deep, dark health issues that I've had to deal with over the past few months, and as a result I've not been properly updating our patrons on what's going on with the game. I have been working on it, burying myself in code, hiding if you will, as has ViV with graphics updates. ViV isn't one for posting on forums and such, and that responsibility fell to me, and I failed at it. I spend most of my time programming and not much of it keeping people up to date.
As a two person team, I think it's possible we bit off more than we could chew with the higher-end graphics and style of this game, and updates take much longer because of it. Things taking longer than expected is the very nature of game development, but at the same time I should have kept you all better informed with progress reports. As each month went by I got more and more tangled in code and bugs, and I am a perfectionist in that I have a very hard time putting out something with bugs in it. Due to that, I kept hoping to have a big exciting update release, instead of releasing smaller buggy builds. When the update kept taking longer and longer, I shied away even further from saying anything, not really knowing what to say anyway. I apologize for that.
So, for now, payments are on hold. When we have the new update ready, we'll release it here, and then move on accordingly.
Thank you so much for your continued support!
~ Giselle and ViV

Thank you, GarGhuul! :)

Just realized that I never replied to your post, so sorry! Thank you so much for your kind words. Things are moving along again and we're back on track. New announcement(s) coming soon! :)
Josh Zehe
Glad to hear it!
Ripened Peach
woo! Thanks, Alysha :)

Thank you Trisha, that means a lot to us. We will (yay!) be making a new announcement very soon, and moving forward with the game. :)

That is a Patreon issue that we can't avoid. When you first sign up, because you can download the build, you get charged. So you have access to the latest build, no problem. You will not be charged again, though, until we resume monthly charges. I hope that makes sense.
Ripened Peach
Thank you Josh! We're feeling much better now, and will be making an announcement soon. :)

You two still alive? I became a patron rather recently, and while I'd love to see updates much more frequently, I can understand you must be under a truckload of stress. Add to that sickness, and that's a whole lot of "not fun". I'm not the type to whine, because that would be really selfish of me. I Hope you're making a steady recovery from whatever happened, and I can't wait to see your progress in the near future. Keep us posted, and get well soon!

Woot I was #137 I rolled you to the new goal~!

So I thought you said you're on break and patrons won't be charged due to lack of content for the moment, how come Patreon still charges the plegde? Found a 5 days old Paypal email that shows the pledge still getting charged.
Trisha
Thank you for your honesty. I'm fine with that. You have already delivered an amazing piece of artistic, erotic, endeavour. There's is nothing else out there, that is quite like this. Come back to it when you are better, and take good care of yourselves, in the meantime xx

Look through the posts section for the latest "Extra Goodies" and that's the file you need. If you don't see that post let me know.

So, how do I unlock the version I downloaded (522,710 KB). I'm only seeing primary characters. Am a $10 per member. Just curious how all this is supposed to work. Don't see any place to download character editor at all.

Thanks Stephan, I appreciate it. What kind of stuff do you do... Coding? Art? Audio?

Gizelle, if there is any help you need , i got to work with unity on another project and am happy to help out a little as time permits. Just shoot if there's something (small) you need. any wastejob, like for interns, you don't have much time for and that lets me get more into unity, let me know.

+1 This style of game development has pros and cons, things happen one way or another. Glad to hear you folks are OK and still going at FLSM.
Stefan Blakemore
I'll be honest, I'm more glad that you are doing better. No matter what, your health is of paramount importance, far more so that with any game. As for the update posts, you have people who enjoy the work you are doing and are willing to support you. They will understand if there are delays. :)
