Chasing Sunsets Chapter 2 (0.3) is done! *Updated*
Added 2021-05-07 17:39:03 +0000 UTC
**UPDATE**
After talking to Kent, we feel that pushing the day one access to the Engineer Tier made no difference on how quickly our update leaked. Based on that, we'll be reversing that policy. This was always about reaching the largest possible audience, and excluding our $1 supporters or forcing them to download from pirate sites was not the answer.
Kentyrr and I are pleased to announce that we hit our target release date, and that Chapter 2 is now available for download to our Engineer Tier and above. Deckhand Tier will receive links to download Chapter 2 on May 14.
Chapter 2 is nearly identical in script length and art inventory to Chapter 1, so you can anticipate a similar playtime.
We'd like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our beta team for helping iron out any bugs in what ended up being a bigger effort than I expected.
If you play VNs with your sound off, we're particularly proud of the sound work in the Dehiba scene, which features many custom sound effects by our friend Hank Rockwell.
The Achievement system is threaded through the Prologue and Chapter 1 as well, but those achievements are not retroactive, so unfortunately you will have to play again if collecting them holds any interest for you.
Additionally, the End of Chapter Summary has been retrofitted into Chapter 1 as well, so you may be able to roll back from your most recent save to view it.
We've also included a little note at the beginning of the game before the Chapter 2 placard, which is worth paying attention to.
Kent and I will hold a Livestream for Q&A in two weeks, so look for the announcement here. Thank you to everyone who has supported us! We hope you enjoy Chapter 2 as much as we enjoyed making it!
As always, we look forward to your feedback and a lively discussion in Discord once the new content has been digested. We do ask that you use the #spoilers-and-help channel to discuss this chapter until a few weeks have passed.
Stoya & Kentyrr

From a newcomer and sincere fan of Lexi Diamond. I had the feeling, that Jaye face was familiar. Kudos to smooth intertwining both stories. (not to mention the flight attendant familiar face xD )

2021-05-14 15:09:56 +0000 UTCWe don't own our thread on F95, and whoever has been assigned from that site as our uploader hasn't been particularly faithful in how they portray our VN. Thank you for the kind words!

2021-05-14 13:05:50 +0000 UTCWhen downloading and playing through the older version, I was surprised by the quality of the dialogues and the story, besides the really good representation of the 3D actors, the excellent image quality and movement animations (correct physics and body deformation when interacting). With the description alone on F95, I did not think it to be that good, honestly. Do not know how this works, but you should get there and on other platforms a more “compelling” description, how much you guys differentiate. I subscribed as patreon due to the fact that this is the first AVN I've been reading all text and dialogues. Keep this up and you are in for the best games in this genre ! Looking eagerly forward for the next upcoming chapters !!
2021-05-14 09:15:00 +0000 UTCI really want more, and more. Man, You doing amaizing job.
2021-05-13 21:19:01 +0000 UTCNew Patreon and very happy to discover this gem! I'm really enjoying the story-telling and the visits to the past for perspective. The scene at the graduation party really grabbed me - I totally understood why he had to leave. I also thought that the flashback to Tara was incredibly sweet and genuine. Jaye has to know just how special Tara is since she read the journal telling just how far she went to try to get him to stay and at least talk to Jaye. You've made waiting for the third chapter that much harder! I'm really looking forward to more of their story :)

2021-05-12 20:29:43 +0000 UTCJust finished my first playthru and I absolutely loved it. I especially love the way the story holds my interest without cheap writing tricks or leaving me feeling like I've been manipulated. This is what I've hoped the AVN genre could rise to. Also really enjoyed the cameo exchange with Drifty's Leap of Faith, another great game.

2021-05-11 02:35:16 +0000 UTCPossibly a dumb question but is there a way to carry over my saves? I have the chapter 1 already in my directory. Can I overwrite the old files?
