Status Update

I'm still banging away at the last changes for Julian's route and implementing these new settings (more info below). Still looking at a Monday the 6th release. Thanks for your patience!

Once the release is out next week, I'll make a post about plans for the following update.

We've got a bunch of new members lately. Welcome all of you!

Just a few bits of info to be aware of:

Julian's route is due for a big update next week, which includes new and modified endings. If you're just starting to play, I'd recommend postpone Julian's route for a few more days!
I am in the process of implementing new settings for violence and non-consentual content. These will be implemented in Julian's route first next update. Other routes will take more time.
Isabella and Luciana ('Mother') and Casper have sprites in the next update.
One of Quinn's paths was (accidently, oops) locked in the last release. That will be unlocked next week. (I didn't realize that until about a week ago, sorry!)
Also as a reminder, members who spend $20 USD in membership fees get a free key on release. (And a similiar idea will exist for the DLCs too!)
I normally do releases on the 2nd and have been very consistent about that date for the entirety of last year! Now that we're approaching release, the updates will likely be a little more inconsistent as the scale of the remaining work varies by task. However, I will always keep everyone updated on what to expect next!
There is still new content coming even though the main routes are finished. We've got a lot of side stories, mini stories, and What If stories to write, along with polishing the remaining routes.
Please don't hesitate to comment or reach out with questions/concerns/thoughts.

Ethereal Lore

I've made some Ethereal lore info charts! These will be in a new "Meta" section in the gallery next release. I'll prettify these up in the future, but I wanted to get the data down. If you're curious...

The Particles chapters will be updated to accurately reflect this new info. Some things have changed from the original chapters.

Edit: Apparently patreon won't zoom these in, so here are links to the full images:

New Settings

Important: These will be implemented as I polish the other routes, so this will take some time. Next release, Julian's route will have these options (but other routes will not.)

Note: Now that I have a setting like this, when I go through the polish phase in routes, I'll be improving some of the vagueness of the non-con scenes.
