Well, I had a really long run of pure productivity, but all good things must come to an end. I'm still writing content I like, but I've been seriously slowed down by an issue with how it all comes together at the end of the Stineford update. I'm not sure whether or not this will be an impediment to release or just a temporary stumbling block.

Meanwhile, other stuff!

The Brightest Shadow: I think Patreon didn't mess with anyone this time, so $10 patrons should have access to the book here. I'll open a later draft up to $5 patrons as well.

Don't Save the Princess: I don't want to spam people with updates, so I'll just note that the past post has been updated. You can now play PC, Mac, and web versions with more bugfixes.

Back on the subject of TLS, there's a problem that's... sort of not a problem? This update ends in a sex scene that I knew was going to be long and considered expanding into a short story. Unfortunately, even the first version I wrote is the size of a story: three or four times the size of any other scene in the game. I guess that's fine, but it's going to be a lot of boxes.

Simon is gonna be relieving 29 years of pent up lust. Hope he stretches beforehand.

While it's important, the selection of a carpeting option for HQ that "really brings the room together" at the new Stineford ornaments shop isn't worth delaying an update over.

With a loving reunion this highly anticipated, it's really important that the carpet matches the drapes.

I can only assume that the scene in question is the result of Annah breaking free of a life of repression

If that's really the case I guess that means the broom running gag will come to an end. I mean....SL is a great writer and all, but the foreshadowing was obvious that Annah was hiding the broom up her ass the whole time.

Bring on the boxes! :)

Is 29 the number of years since Annah started having sexual thoughts, or...?

If I remember correctly, the longest scene so far is the first one with Robin, which is ~13 pages. So this one is ~40? Wow.

Well you have proven your writing prowess time and time again. So, because of that, you are one of the few developers that I have no problem with reading a wall of text in your game. Of course, it being a sex scene helps this as well :).

I'm not sure how many pages it will be, but that Robin scene was around 1700 words, whereas this one is 6000+. Some of those are variant paragraphs, though.

I think at this point we can trust you that a long scene won't simply be a excessive number of gratuitous descriptions of secondary sexual characteristics or a ridiculous number of position changes. Although I honestly wouldn't mind that anyways.

A long sex scene indeed seems like an opposite of a problem to me.

Well, in the middle I just repeat "tits tits tits" several thousand times. But in all seriousness, this one is really wide-ranging. Hopefully players will feel it's justified.

No matter how long the scene, as soon as you get art for it no one will notice. Anyone who has ever played a VN or Ren'py game will be used to it.

Looking forward to the naughty WoT! Regarding TLS i noticed a bug regarding Implevon the Third. Sometimes when you talk to him in the Orc Quarter the introduction conversation from chapter 3 happens. I'm not sure but i think it happens whenever one finishes a major update / quest.

sierralee

This was an issue when we added his past introduction for those who missed him the first time. I think it should be fixed in all saves going forward.

Q-Riff

Will we finally be able to shut down the "Gilded lily 'inn'?"

Taking action against them is one of the core quests available in this update.
