Patreon Early Access - Update 0.11.9b
Hey guys! What's up?!Phew! This update was a BEAST to work on! Honestly, I'm exhausted in the best and worst ways possible. I'm really proud of how much work went into this update, and I've learned a ton, but I definitely need some quality sleep after spending months obsessing over every little detail and planning what's coming next. I'm gonna be honest here, I'm not 100% satisfied with it. But I've delayed enough. And since this is early access, things might still change a little.But damn, I'm so excited to ...
Dev Log. 2025-05-10
Hey, guys! What's uuuuuuuup?Sorry about the delay. A little trouble in paradise.This dev log is a bit different. I don't have much to show. I'm in the proofreading stage. That means reading and re-reading everything and rewriting anything that needs to be rewritten over and over again until I'm satisfied with it. All in all, the update is ready. I CONSIDERED adding one extra scene, but I think I'll leave it for the next update.There's ONE particular scene, however, that I haven't reached that point of "Yeah, that...
Dev Log. 2025-05-03
Hey, guys! What's uuuuuuuup?Sorry for the late dev log. Today's been crazy.Well, this week's been wild. My PSU simply decided to freakin' EXPLODE(not literally, lol) and leave me hanging. Thanks to you guys, I was able to buy a new one. Otherwise, this would've been a major setback.So, the update is "technically" ready. I'm gonna give myself a week or two for proofreading since there's a lot to read and tweak, make sure there are no loose ends, but I think that's about it. Render Progress:- Jasmin & Julie...
Aaaand... Bad and Good news!
Hey, guys! What's up?! So... Bad news first... My PSU died while working on the game this Monday. Lost a bit of progress (not much), and kept me from working from then until today. :( The good news is that thanks to your support, I've managed to get myself a new PSU and now I'm back up and running at full speed. Thank you for that, a LOT! :D I wanted to keep you guys in the loop. I'll give you guys a full update in Saturday's devlog!Cheers! :D
Dev Log. 2025-04-26
Hey, guys! What's uuuuuuuup?First things first, I'm really glad with this new dev log schedule. It helps a lot keeping things organized and fresh for the next week. I'm having some trouble with my connection (again -.-) and probably the previews won't load for this dev log. This is probably the last but one dev log. Hopefully the next one will be "Hey guys, everything's ready, I'll take this week to proofread everything and we're good to go..." Hopefully... :)Render Progress:- Jasmin & Julie Neighborhood scen...
Dev Log. 2025-04-19
Hey, guys! What is uuuuuuuuuuup? Hope you're all enjoying the holidays! (I think most countries are on holidays right now, right?)It's been a hell of a busy week. And thankfully, with the holidays, I can work more on the game. A LOT has been done. We're almost ready (I know, I know, this is getting old.)Render Progress:- Jasmin & Julie Neighborhood scene: 100%- Jasmin Scene: 100%- Household Scene: 100%- Sophia Scene: 100%- Household Return Scene: 100%- Sophia Scene²: 90% -> 100%- Sleep Scene: 0% -> 15%I think we've passed the 1...
Dev Log. 2025-04-12
Hey, guys! What's up?! :)Miss me yet? No? Okay? :(It hasn't been that long since our last dev log, but I wanted to post anyway to build a good habit. (Even though I just posted a few days ago instead of last Saturday, I figured I should stick to our new Saturday schedule!)There hasn't been much progress since then, mainly due to the short time between dev logs. But here's where we stand so far:Render Progress:- Jasmin & Julie Neighborhood scene: 100%- Jasmin Scene: 100%- Household Scene: 100% - Sophia Scene: 100%- Household Retu...
Putting the House in Order. 2025-04-07
Hey, guys! What's up? Long time no see! Please put down your torches and pitchforks for now? :(As I've mentioned before, Discord is a GREAT tool for communication. Every time someone pings me there, I try to respond as fast as I can. It's been our first source of communication and I've been using Patreon for meaningful announcements instead. I think that's how to use these tools to the fullest. Quick back-and-forth on Discord, big pronunciations here.I can't stress this enough; it's ALWAYS okay for you guys to ping m...
Last Preview before the Update! (Warning, heavy spoilers!)
Hey everyone! Just wanted to share one last preview with you all - it's one of my favorite renders yet! Usually, I apologize for delays (especially with past updates), but this time, I'm actually glad I took a little extra time. The extra polishing allowed me to expand some scenes, and this render was the result! I'm really happy with how it turned out. And by the way - we're super close to the release! Just hang in there for a few more days. It'll be worth the wait! :)(That's Sophia)(The image is probably taking some ti...
Incoming Update and Previews!
Hey everyone! What's up!We're almost ready for the next update! We're on schedule (which I'm really excited about!), so I'm happy to announce that patrons will get early access again! :) I'm doing the final tweaks now. This update might be pretty intense, though it's notably shorter than my previous ones - about one-third to half the size of the last three updates. But considering I'm delivering it four to six times faster, I think that's a real improvement.The update currently has around 400 renders, and wit...
Feedback and expectations for the LIs
Hey, guys! The last poll was good for reassuring me that most of you prefer the way we're handling the story. That's good; it seems like we're on the right track. Thanks a lot for all of you voicing your opinions, either in public or in private.Now, I'd really like to know your current interest and expectations for the LIs. Which ones do you like best? Which ones do you want more content from?Cheers!
Sandbox?
First off, I want to thank you all for your support and feedback on our previous update. AMAZING feedback. The reception was somewhat mixed (more positive than negative, but still. Critiques are just as crucial as praises. If you took your time to write a good critique, you probably care about this project and want to see it improving, and I appreciate that a lot) - while most of you enjoyed it, some valid concerns were raised, and I'd like to address them with you.About the narrative pacing: I understand why it might feel like it's slo...
Public Update 0.11.1.b
Hey, guys! Hope you guys had a wonderful time during these holidays! Let me start this post with a disclaimer to the Patreons who had early access to the 0.11.0b version:There's no need to download v0.11.1b! All fixes will be transferred to the next update. There's no new content from v0.11.0b to v0.11.1b! There are several bug fixes, though!So, here's a brief changelog:Asuna's Bio page not properly updating after the dinner scene has been fixed.On occasion, the popup display didn't appear when Isabella's Love Points inc...
Patreon Early Access - Update 0.11.0b
Hey, everyone! Happy New Year!I sincerely hope this past year has been wonderful for all of you. I was fortunate enough to have loved ones with me for New Year's, and I hope you all had that opportunity too!Your support throughout the year has been greater and more comforting than I could have ever asked for or imagined. I truly want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart and wish you all an amazing New Year!I don't know how many times I can say this without sounding like a broken record, but I can't simply s...
News and Previews for Update 0.11.0b!
Hey, guys! How's it going? Hope you guys are doing alright!These last months were WILD for me! I had a lot of difficulty merging all the scenes together for this next update, especially since I have a special update planned for December. (One, I might say, that has been years in the planning since the Halloween event in the prologue.)This next update will contain about 600-800 renders but the same amount of content as the last couple of updates (about the same, if not more, dialogue lines. During my tests, it was about the same time as the ...
Public Update 0.10.1.b
Hey, guys! First and foremost, I can't stress enough how grateful I am for the kind reviews and feedback you guys are giving. Some did it personally, some on our Discord server, and some on the websites/forums DropOut Saga is updated (by me or not). Regardless, you guys are fantastic! This is a lovely way to keep me motivated! :)Let's not forget that your honest reviews help us spread some DropOutSaga out there. Be it good or bad, it's always helpful. If it's a bad review, I learn. If it's a good review, I get motivated. Eas...
Public Update v0.10.0b
Here's the changelog:900+ renders added9 NSFW animations added.The previous update had a problem with how Android users would install it. While that hasn't been fixed yet, I've been looking for new ways to have bigger files on Mobile since it's an Android issue. Thanks a lot for the feedback on Discord. There shouldn't be any problems with the mobile build at this time.Added the Love Interest PagePlans for the FutureExpand the Love Interest bio page to include factions, families, and other intel you gather throughout your ga...
Some Previews, Dates for the Next Updates, And more
Hey, guys! What's up?!Well... It's been quite a while since I posted about the next update. I'm sorry about keeping you guys in the dark, but I wanted to wait until I had something real to show you about the things I'm planning for the next update.To sum up, I have two updates ready. This year was a hassle, to put it mildly. I spent months in the hospital. Family members were in need, there were delays and more delays, communication was difficult, and nature decided to wreak havoc. Oh, well. You guys accompanied me through this ...
Weekly Report, Some Previews, and ETA
Hey, guys! What's up?!So... Let me respond first to those concerned who have been asking me if everything's alright, considering the volcanoes are active again. There's no need to worry. I think we learned from the previous events. There's been some evacuations, but my area is unaffected. The power grid is stable, and so is my connection. The local government spent every effort on the new, reinforced defensive barriers, and they're doing wonders for now.Now, let's talk about the game!I admit I was feeling a bit bold with...
A picture without any explanation whatsoever!
Hey, guys! What's up?I'll post this preview without any explanation whatsoever. Also... The Next Update is coming sooner than what you'd expect! >:)
Quick Survey!
Hey, guys! What's up?So, while I'm still out of service and can't show you guys what I'm working on right now, I want to do a quick survey. (I'm really excited to show you what I've been working on, by the way)As you know, the college and mafia plotlines started separately. Now, they have a few overlaps, and later, they'll become one.So,whichplotline is getting you more excited right now? The College or the Mafia?
Which character?
Hey, guys! What's up?Before anything else, I'm letting you know that my PC's internet is dead again. My phone is fine, which is why I can talk with you right now. My power grid is also fine, so I can still work. I'm just letting you guys know that it's a bit difficult to reach me at the moment.Anyways, let's get to business! I've progressed a LOT with the LI page! I've even made them for the different factions in the game. It's pretty cool! I'm excited to show them as soon as my internet is back to life.N...
Sharing A Bit Of Progress For The Next Update
Hey, guys! What is up?Based on your feedback, I thought it'd be nice to have a way to track your progress with the LIs while also having more information about them. This is still a very, very early concept, but I wanted to share how it's been going!I still have to add Love/Corruption points. And a lot of other variables to it.I could also have this extra screen to expand on the Lore a bit. It would be quite a nice addition.Cheers!
Public Update 0.9.1b
Hey, guys! What's up!I've made a quick fix for the Mobile version. This is just a quick update for those unable to play it on Android. If you're a PC/Linux/Mac user, there's no need to download anything.Changelog v0.9.0b -> v0.9.1b:-Fixed the installation error for Mobile Users-Compressed the game even further for Android Users (Hence the different file sizes)I tested on three different mobiles. Everything worked out perfectly. The compression didn't change the Animation or Render quality at all. But if you guys ever notice ...
Public Update v0.9.0b
Hey, guys! AAAAAAAAAND We're finally here! :)You guys know everything that has happened to me. I won't expand on that, especially because the spotlight should be on this update. So let's talk about it. But! Just to those who are worried: Things are going back to where they should be. I'm fine! I'm safe! And everything's going back to normal! Thanks SO MUCH for the support! I can't stress that enough! And I know it's very frustrating.Alright, the BIGGEST thing about this update is how I'm setting up the animat...
Last thing before the Update
Hey, guys! What's up?I'll keep this brief since my internet time at this public café is limited. Unfortunately, my power grid is still unstable due to the events we discussed on our Discord server. I have been without power since Thursday, and they said they were fixing it and that it shouldn't be longer than 48 hours. However, today is Sunday(Past the 48 hours), and I had to come here to let you guys know they haven't fixed it yet -.-'I even brought my Pendrive to upload the update here, but the connection is too slow.I am...
Extra NSFW Content
Sooooo... Now that we've chosen who's gonna feature the extra scene, let's get a bit creative >:)Which of those positions looks better right now?Standing against the wallDoggystyleTitjob
Extra NSFW Scene
Hey, guys!Regarding the extra scene, let's first decide which girl there's gonna be an additional scene with.The only condition is that it must already be a girl with NSFW content. So...Tomorrow, approximately at the same time, I'll make another poll about how the scene will be!Cheers!
A Few Words Before The Update
Hey, guys!This is my 10th attempt to publish this post. I wanted to discuss a few things with you guys, but this post is going to be too huge already. I'll leave it to another post in case the need shows up. So, if you aren't aware of what's happening, I suggest checking out our Discord server.Let's get to business!Damn... DropOut Saga is reaching its second year of development, and I have grand ambitions for this year. July's update (second anniversary) will be awesome, as I already have many scenes set apart just for it.Fo...
Weekly Report and some Explanations
Hey, guys! What's up?! So. First, the explanations. As some of you know, especially those following up on the Discord server discussions (which I highly recommend :D), I've had some health issues lately. I spent weeks in the Hospital, first because of a family member in need, then because of me. And while I'm no longer in the Hospital, I'm still in recovery. There are a few steps until I'm fully healed. Like Physiotherapy. Medicine. Rehabilitation. Long story short, there are still a few steps until complete recovery. Having...
