Coding Update
Keeping it short because I’m sick. Version 4.53 is out for supporters, featuring bugfixes and adding in more enemy sprites. Hopefully all the sprites should be finished this week. I have contracted Sigrid for the kitsune dance sprites, I hope to have the minigame put in this month.
Other than bugfixes I made a lot of good progress on Ophiucus. I’m going to keep working on bugfixes as they come up.
Tales of Strings: Guise of the Goddess Released!
This is one of the first ToS stories I wrote and has been sitting around waiting for art for over a year. Now it’s out and you can read and enjoy it! It has living-statue tf, twinning, hypno, and hot sex. Naturally.
Salty’s Recommendations
Striped, Collared, and Heated
A friend of mine, Nibs, sent me a pre-release copy and it’s really good! It’s a fairly long story with a lot of illustrations about a hapless everyman who gets turned into a horny tigress by a demoness. I’m not doing it justice with that description, a lot of stuff happens, it’s a story! If anything about the above sounded hot, go give it a look. You can get it on Wechange, or check this bsky post to see more from Nibs.
Sweet Tooth
One sent to me by Britney. A short but very good story with some hot stuff and also Blorbo #7 who has taken over my life. Check it out on Wechange!
His relentless positivity is a blight on this world.
I don’t usually read a ton of stuff by other authors so you know it’s good if I’m recommending it, damn it.
VN Results
After reviewing feedback from the forms, we’ve decided to proceed with a different VN set in the Pandemonium verse since that’s what the audience craves. There will likely be a poll put up next week with a bunch of story pitches for you to pick from, along with the TFs in the stories.
If Only Shadows doesn’t win, I’ll probably publish the original script for free since it’s not going to get made otherwise. Maybe it can inspire you.
Look forward to more of that later.
