I ran a poll last week about whether Aya should have a good ending or not in her route. The result ended up being 60% against having a good ending versus 40% in favor of it.

Now, does that mean that I will absolutely refuse to write a good ending or that there's no chance for one…? No. Not necessarily. It was a rather close poll. What it means is that I won't force a good ending if I don't think of a satisfying conclusion for it. I wasn't really happy with how the good ending for Laura turned out to be… but at least there was more than one good ending—we can thank Aya for that—so it kinda balanced the whole thing.

I will continue writing Aya's route without thinking too much about it. I'll probably run another poll in a few months, when the story has progressed a bit just to see if the needle has moved since. But still, for now, you should assume that there isn't going to be one.

What I find weird is that some people assume that I either don't care about good endings or I don't care about my Patrons. But if I really didn't care, I wouldn't be running a poll in the first place. I actually put a lot of importance on what you guys want, and I'm trying my best in my own way.

Now, this month, I decided not to do a CG preview. Mainly because, while there are quite a few new CGs, there isn't much "action". My desire not to spoil anything is kinda strong as well. It always is… but this month I feel more strongly about it.

…Unless you guys absolutely want a preview. Then I would oblige.

Anyway, I'm still gathering questions for the commentary at the end of the update. So if anyone has any questions for Hangover or for me… or for any characters in APBLU (some weirdos want to speak to fictional characters it seems) then you can leave a comment in the comment section of this post.

V0.1.5 will probably be released at the beginning of next week. Around the 20th.

Hello author, my English is not good and I am using a translator. I hope to convey my thoughts. A Promise Best Left Unkept "is a delicate game that I haven't played in a long time, and the amount of text can be said to be the most among the hgames I have played. Everyone's lines, inner activities, and scenes have been extensively described, and they are very attentive. I have already subscribed and I am not familiar with this application, but I particularly want to participate in the voting for 'Meaningful Poll: Should Aya's route have a good ending?' Unfortunately, I have already missed the date (end time 11.4) Because I personally hope that Aya can always have a good ending, after all, Laura almost always has a bad ending, which is half (41% vs 58%) from the voting results. I have played many NTR games, but I like the female protagonist who is good at thinking and has an independent consciousness. Instead of games where female characters have no corrupt thinking, many Japanese games are now like this, almost no longer depicting the female protagonist's inner thoughts. But your game is different. Even though Laura has fallen, she is still constantly thinking, trying to deceive Harry, and more importantly, using Luca. As for Aya, she has the most personality and has been struggling with Luca, which is the female lead I have never seen before. I hope to show mercy. Even with a bad ending, don't be too cruel to Aya, leaving the worst for Laura is enough. Aya should be able to maintain liveliness and intelligence, a spirit that can always bring happiness. Or have you ever considered the route of 'ntrs'? I like to be able to play this type of ntr game without feeling sad, and ntrs (寝取らせ) may be a choice? And as you said, Laura's good ending is not so good. Without Aya's intervention, Laura and Harry would not have had a satisfactory ending. Although the progress is already 100%, is it possible to see the outcome of Laura and Harry reuniting?

Hey! Thank you for the long message. I understand the desire to give her a good ending, but as much as I also want my characters to find happiness, my priority is NTR. And Netorase isn’t my cup of tea. For this story, at the very least, it will stay a hard NTR. I might, like I mentioned, write a good ending if I find the inspiration, but there will definitely be a bad ending to compensate. I hope I can somehow still live up to your expectations, but do keep in mind that Aya will fall.

I know you said prefer hard NTR and not Netorase but how do you feel about Netori? Do you consider that hard enough if the cuck is still a pretty major character in the story?

I see Netorase and Netori to be completely different kinks. That doesn't mean they can't be appealing to people who love NTR, but the feelings associated with them doesn’t quite hit the mark… for me at least. But I still want to try writing both of them at some point. As small projects, if nothing else. Reverse NTR as well. I'm hoping that I can learn something by doing that. Though, right now, I'm focused on something else.
