Ann: NBMF v0.13 – NTS Path Release Schedule

Hey everyone!

Originally, v0.13 was planned to be split into two parts:
Part 1: NTR (three endings)
Part 2: NTS + Hopeful Bittersweet

However, this month has been extremely busy for me, and production took longer than expected.
As a result, I ended up delaying another week and was only able to complete the NTS route for now.

Hopeful Bittersweet should take about one to two more weeks to finish.
But since I didn’t want players’ memberships to expire during this delay and have to renew again just for Early Access (especially because it’s my fault 😭), I decided to release the NTS version first. The public/free version will be updated later together with Hopeful Bittersweet.
Thank you all so much for your understanding and patience!

The NTS route includes 32 animations and 15 CGs (though 4 of those are Alan’s solo scenes 😅).
Honestly, I feel the overall visual quality of the NTS route turned out even better.
It’s not that I intentionally put more effort into it — the inspiration just flowed more naturally, and the visual direction was clearer.
The CGs had strong concepts to work from, while the animations were more of a “let’s see if the AI feels generous today” situation 😆.

Regarding the ending, a player’s feedback made me reconsider things,
so I decided to add two selectable endings:

• one for a pure NTS experience,

• and another with a more NTS-to-NTR feeling.

大家好！

原本的計畫是讓 v0.13 分成兩個部分：
Part 1：NTR 三個結局
Part 2：NTS + Hopeful Bittersweet

但因為這個月實在太忙，再加上製作比預期花了更多時間，我最終又延了一週，而且目前只完成了 NTS 路線的劇情。
其實 Hopeful Bittersweet 只需要再一到兩週就能完成，不過為了避免有玩家剛好在這段期間會員到期、又得為了 Early Access 再次付費（尤其是因為我的拖延 😭），所以我決定先釋出 NTS 版本。因此，免費版本會等到 Hopeful Bittersweet 一起完成時再更新，希望大家能夠體諒！

這次的 NTS 路線最終包含 32 段動畫 和 15 張 CG（其中有四段是 Alan 自慰畫面 😅）。
老實說，就 CG 和動畫的整體完成度來看，我會認為 NTS 路線的表現更好一些。
並不是我刻意在 NTS 上花比較多心力，而是剛好靈感比較多、畫面需求也比較明確——
CG 的部分比較有方向性，而動畫就比較隨緣（看 AI 願不願意賞臉 😆）。

另外想特別提一下結局的部分。
有位玩家的回饋讓我重新思考後，我決定在結尾新增兩種結局選項：

• 一個是偏向純 NTS 的結局

• 另一個則帶有 NTS to NTR 的氛圍
