Quick dev update 20 Apr 2025
🕑 Added 2025-04-20 11:32:42 +0000 UTCWanted to drop a line giving my progress on the next update.
First, I am aware of the issue with saves on In Her Own Hands. The problem does not exist on ITOH. I tried everything I could by myself, and when that didn't work, I reached out to a community of other users of this language. I have some clue about what might be happening, so I am going to spend some time later today to see if I can fix it. As soon as I do, I will post a new update. (This latest update to the code format apparently completely rewrote some of the API which apparently doesn't like some code in the game that was fine before.)
Second, based on the checklist I provided in my last update, these are the tasks I have already completed:
First "introduction" scene with Becca.
Finish writing the (currently text-less) ending to the FuckR date with Leah.
Converting all of the previous text messages to the "new" format introduced in the last update to IHOH.
Adding the "Orgasm Counter" and "Body Count" stat trackers for Jenny to the "Just the Tip" page.
This leaves the following left to finish for the new update:
Second scene with Becca ---- two variations based on Shaun relationship.
Write a follow-up conversation that will occur after the meeting with the polyamorous couple (and if I have time, a second meeting with them).
Another short scene involving Richard (Christian's boss).
So I am more than halfway finished, with most of the difficult work already finished. Depending on how much I am able to finish today, I may have the next update ready for release to Patrons by next weekend (fingers crossed) or shortly thereafter.
I think that this is a good way to plan updates from now on. Not only does it increase transparency (which I think you all will appreciate), but it also helps me prevent the very real problem of "scope creep" that I deal with almost every update---wanting to do "just one more thing" that delays the release for weeks.
Thanks again for your support,
S&D
