Writing some things while uploading Solvalley 1.0.0 (Patreon)

Hello!

I am uploading version 1.0.0 of Solvalley School, and as the process will take a while, I will write a lot of things here for those who want to read.

Note: probably my English will be a little worse than normal because I have been awake for so long that my brain is no longer functioning at 100% capacity.

My opinion about the new version

To be honest, I am not very satisfied with the result of the work of these past two months.

The big problem was the excessive focus I gave to the orgy event at Linda's house, which is exclusive to the hardcore mode. I didn't plan this event correctly and it started to get too big, having more than 350 images and yet, in my opinion, it seems kind of rushed...

Because of that, I didn't have time to work on some other events that I had in mind (Sabrina, Ruzena, Emma (doctor) and Saori).

Unfortunately, for those who play the game in vanilla mode, this update will be a little disappointing. For these, I added: a variant of Verdi's last scene without Kirk's presence, a scene at Linda's house with a variant, a scene with the twins sisters, a scene with Mary and Amanda and an ending for Verdi. It is also possible to see "vanilla" part of the scene with Uyara, a new girl who appears only in the orgy scene. This scene is in the extra content gallery.

The only event that really satisfied me was Verdi's ending, because I think it maintains the typical Solvalley spirit. It is a relatively short scene, however. It's not a super long ending like Lucy's or Anastacia's.

The rest of the events I have identified some problems in the way they flow, but I am too tired and too late to try to change anything right now.

What am I going to do about Solvalley now

EDIT: I changed my mind about what is written below, I will continue working on Solvalley until completing 7 goals that I detailed in the most recent post.

This part of the text is obsolete:

"I'm going to add Sabrina's storyline, finish Tatiana's, fix several old images and animations, among other things. However, Solvalley will no longer be my focus from now on.

My focus will be HS Tutor and I will only work at Solvalley in my spare time. That's why I recommend that those who are my patrons just because of Solvalley reconsider this decision because from now on all the main updates will be related to HS Tutor. Patches with new content for Solvalley will appear sporadically as soon as I have enough content.

I am not abandoning Solvalley. According to my experience, staying a long time on the same theme / game starts to get tiring and it is good to have an extra project at this times. Solvalley will be this project now, when I feel that I am not inspired to work at HS Tutor, I will spend my time creating new images, animations and fixing things that did not make me very happy at Solvalley."

Measures to make my Patreon page more professional

Since I don't usually use social media and sometimes it takes me a long time to reply to emails or messages from my patrons, sometimes people think I died or something.

To avoid this kind of confusion, I will make a mandatory post every Friday. Even if I happen to get AIDS and have to stay away for a while, I'll post it Friday anyway, so people know that I still exist.

Usually these posts will be about progress in my games. I will create other posts on other days too if I have something important to announce. 

 HS Tutor will have monthly updates starting this month 

One thing that stresses me out a lot is realizing that I'm going to miss the deadline and possibly make some patrons angry. So I'm going to change my approach a little bit.

My target will no longer be fixed content like: "this month I'm going to do the whole Charlotte storyline". Instead, I will create the events individually and as soon as the end of the month is approaching, I will prepare a build of the newest version with a changelog for people to check out what has been modified.

In the case of patches with more content for Solvalley, they will not have certain dates and I will make them available when I think I have significant content.

$ 6 Patrons Benefits

Finally, $ 6 patrons will again receive benefits.

I don't use polls anymore, but I will use them again and reserve them only for the $6 tier.

The first poll will be about what I'm going to prioritize in addition to Charlotte's storyline on HS Tutor right now. The options will be: add the character of a hot and busty principal to the school; add a second round to strip poker with Megan and friends; add more sexy events  for Zoe and Mila (school + home).

I'm also thinking of giving 24 hours of exclusivity for this tier to download things. I still haven't decided whether to do this or not. It would be symbolic only and in my view it would not justify someone to migrate from $ 3 to $ 6, since you only have to wait one day to access the same things.

Bye!
