Update - Shizu on Shuji's lap
🕑 Added 2020-04-06 23:17:13 +0000 UTCtl;dr - I've been working on the Shizu scene, which is getting quite far along, and I've added an "accelerated start" option.
Sorry, this update is a day late but I forgot, what with the public update I posted recently.
This week's image
Here's a few pictures from the upcoming Shizu scene! I've included the close ups for her face as well, because I thought they turned out well. This part will be for an interactive moment, although after this the scene will move into an animation, which will also include a menu of options to pick from.
Accelerated start
I've included a new option, the "accelerated start", that will allow you to start a new game at day 7, with all the girls at 100 trust and love, and with all four of their flashbacks already seen. This will skip a lot of the game, (and content) so it's not recommended for new players at all, but I wanted something in there so you wouldn't need to replay as much if you wanted to get to new content in the game and your save game has broken due to updates.
I'm doing my best to keep the number of broken save games down but if I make significant technical changes (as I would still like to) then there will be more of them, I'm afraid. This way you can at least not feel like it's a grind to see the content.
Shizu sex scene
I've been working on the writing and images for the Shizu sex scene this week too, and it's getting pretty close to completion. I think it's turning out pretty well; there's lots of interactive options available, the images look good and there's some animations that I've had ready for a long time.
I haven't programmed it yet because I've been fighting off a persistent migraine for a while and that makes it a bit hard to do the programming work, but it's not really a problem if I'm getting the writing done instead.
I hope everyone's staying healthy! Do you like the images? Does an accelerated start sound like a good idea? Let me know in the comments!

Yeah, I just make the public releases a bit less frequently than that. They're a lot of work, so I tend to only do a public release every few months.

Oh. Most games the public releases aren't far behind the private ones, like a week to a month or so. And it's very unusual to see one that doesn't make the old version public when a new one comes out.
BBBen
I don't think that's a case of missing tags; it's just that the public version is always going to be a bit behind the patrons' version, even if I make the public release later.
Wild Bill
Awesome, harem is where it's at. Girls fighting over you is a good for the ego, not so much for an enjoyable home life. By the way, is there some missing tags on the release posts? Clicking on the game releases tag the public version that comes up is quite a few versions behind the restricted version.
BBBen
I hope you do! I'll have a new release coming relatively soon, I think, with Shizu's content in place, so you can finally get to a proper 'harem' stage, whether it's through accelerated starts or normal play.
Wild Bill
That's true, I haven't played myself in ages. With the extra time from lockdown I should do that.
BBBen
It's a little hard to tell what might be the content that players haven't seen, since I know not everyone plays every release. Setting it to just before all the sex scenes, though, (along with making a skip function for the sex scenes, which is also part of the plan) will allow players to get quickly into the "harem" stage, which is more open so you can access stuff freely.

I don't find braces sexy, but other than that she's a real cutie and it looks like she's enjoying herself too which is a big plus. If saves breaking is a likely risk, an accelerated start is a good idea, I think. Maybe bringing you right to the start of new content might be better than jumping to a fixed point, although that might need more maintenance.
