The Interim Domain 0.07.0 update #1 (Patreon)
Content
Here we are, already deep in the development of 0.07.0. I always like to joke that we jump right back in after the last release came out, but this time, we didn't even wait that long. Two of the scenes were already partially done ahead of time. In fact, I have another four sitting in storage until we hit the specific points in those girls' stories.
Since it's come up a lot in recent conversations, Mina's story should be considered an outlier and not how every tale plays out. I like to think of her as a tutorial: a condensed side-story to set the stakes for the main stories. She and a couple other characters (Chira and two others to come) are a secondary tier to provide smaller arcs for the player to complete. With the main love interests, you'll have lengthy tales covering the entire development of the game where, as long as you maintain like/love points, you won't have to worry about them turning into a Remnant. Of course, that doesn't mean we don't already have one or two of those fail states in the game already. Honestly, the bar to clear for the main girls is so low, you have to make an attempt to trip over it.
As I've mentioned on the Discord (because you can actually hide spoilers there), there are different levels of how characters are presented in TID, and how they can be interacted with, allowing for the possibility of surprises from the third and fourth tiers. So, I know it's early, but we do have plans with so many of the cast that had to be introduced now so that your time with them has meaning later on.
Thanks for your interest and patronage,
