Update - Emi and Kumi in her apartment
🕑 Added 2022-07-17 22:01:01 +0000 UTCtl;dr - This is from a new Emi/Kumi/Hirai interactive scene; I've also been spending a lot of time this week on recruiting artists for Lord Goblin.
This week's images
These images are from a new scene I'm putting into the August update - it's an interactive scene as Shuji scrolls through a video from Hirai on his phone. The girls are putting on a show for the video... ;) Obviously, this only unlocks if you're following the Hirai/Emi path.
This uses some of the same design tricks as the other recent scene I made with Shuji receiving a video involving Nobuko & Shizu, because I wanted to try that on a new scene. It ended up feeling like a rather different thing, though.
That makes three new interactive scenes coming in the upcoming release; basically because I just felt they were all modest in size, so I wanted to make sure you got enough new content overall. :)
Working on an artist search for Lord Goblin
I've been a bit ahead of schedule on PAT, so while I've been getting a bit of voice acting done for upcoming scenes, I've mostly been taking advantage of the time to look into new artists to work on Lord Goblin.
Why am I looking for a new artist, or more than one? Basically because even though our current character artist is great, the amount of art we need is proving too much and we need to spread the load (not like that!) and get some assistance.
Recruitment like that is really time consuming work; it involves a lot of discussions with artists and evaluations of portfolios and sketches, etc. I'm also having to fork out money for a bunch of commissions from promising artists to see who works out the best.
I'm encouraged by the progress, though! I might even do something like hiring several different artists to work on different characters, so we can really start making fast progress. Then we'll be producing art at a rate that will allow us to go full time and launch the new Patreon for the game, I think. (Yes, if you're new, Lord Goblin will be a very different project I run in parallel to this one, on a different Patreon page.)
What do you think about this Emi/Kumi scene? Are you going to play for that, or are you more interested in the new Shizu/Nobuko scenes I've teased in the last couple of weeks? Let me know in the comments below!

Probably not, unfortunately; I looked at the scenes most likely to trigger something and I couldn't see anywhere that would be setting the Emi sex scene as complete.

Would my save from day 20 help finding the bug?
BBBen
Well, that's certainly a bug, thanks for reporting it. Unfortunately I can't see any reason the game would be thinking you've found the Emi sex scene if you haven't; it's probably some incorrect variable somewhere, but I don't know where.

By the way, I think I encountered a potential bug on day 21. Now this might be intentional on your part, but when I reached day 21 I had only really done Shizu’s content and almost none of the content for Emi and Nobuko, and yet I somehow got Emi’s ending and unlocked all her flashbacks, which I hadn’t even seen, in the scene gallery. Nobuko’s gallery was fine and properly displayed the scenes I’d actually seen.

Sounds like it's been a while! I'm glad you found my stuff again; you've got quite a lot to catch up on. :D There's also Let Me In and Let Me Out that I've made since then, but I'd particularly recommend PAL of the ones you haven't seen yet. You can get all the downloads here if you need them: https://bbbenaif.blogspot.com/ I never noticed any background noise with the Shizu sound - darn it. I hope it's not too noticeable for most players. I hope you enjoy the new scenes, too!

I can't believe I forgot about your games. The last one I played was Pervert Action Future, and I must say, you've only gotten far better since then! Really looking forward to playing through all of PAT and PAL. Also, I gotta tell you, I laughed my ass off at Shizu's first sex scene because of the audio. In the background of her moans, you can hear the fire alarm beep occasionally to let everyone know it's low on batteries. When I heard that I went to go check my fire alarm but noticed it didn't beep, so I thought I'd just misheard, but then I heard it again and realized it was in the background of the audio. Anyways, I'd definitely play the next version for that Emi/Kumi scene!
