House Chores v1.0 | First Look Update

Hey everyone!

The 'final' release of House Chores is currently in development, so I wanted to take some time to talk about my plans for this v1.0 release!

== V1.0 Content ==

Version 1.0 of House Chores will wrap up the House Chores story with one last event featuring all 3 of the HC ladies!

Additionally, I'm looking to sneak in a little extra content & interactions if time permits so I don't actually know what the final count of new scenes will be. But I'll be sharing teasers of this new content as the final update continues to progress!

I do want to temper expectations, however. While I do want to include more scenes than usual, don't expect that number to be wildly larger than regular updates.

== Bonus 'Maid' Content ==

One of my priorities is to make sure that the value of House Chores feels worth the purchase. So as a bonus, I'm including a bonus Maid outfit for Linda! This bonus costume will feature its own scene with her and provide some extra content to enjoy!

== Revisiting Linda & Emily ==

In the previous update, I read a few reactions to the Linda & Emily scene and in general, I think the scene wound up being underwhelming for players. So, for v1.0, I want to include an additional scene for Linda & Emily that I think will be a more satisfying conclusion to their duo story.

However, this wasn't originally planned, so this will extend development time a little bit.

== Release Window & Price ==

There's still a bit of content that I want to add so it's pretty early for a release date. But I don't want to have development for 1.0 stretch terribly long either.

January/February is going to be my broad goal! The sooner the better, but I also want to make sure the v1.0 update feels complete.

The final version of House Chores will be sold at a price. I plan to sell House Chores for $8.  For a short time, $5+ HC Patrons will be able to link their accounts to itch and retrieve the game as a special offer. Stay tuned for more details about that.

I hope you're all looking forward to the 'final' update for House Chores! Thank you all so much for playing! I'll see you all soon with updates & teasers!
