April 26 Update

This week I experimented with working on whatever I felt like. Rather than try to pull this into a focused post, I'll just list all the different things I did.

TLS 0.51.0 Design: I...

April 19 Update

It is almost, almost time for a clearer schedule. First, two items that may be of interest to you:

1) TLS is on itch.io

I hadn't realized there was any activity for fre...

TLS 0.50.1 - The Art Release is now public!

Hey, everyone! I'm glad to announce that the first big art release is now public, and you can download it here:

April 12 Update: One More Book Launch Edition

Lots of stuff happening. $5 patrons are playing the newest version of the game complete with the full art. $10 patrons just got the first ever art package (all scenes at full resolution plus maps/f...

The TLS Art Pack

This is an unusual time for a post, but what the heck. I've promised several people that patrons would get access to higher resolution versions of all the scene images, and now is the time where I ...

TLS 0.50.0 Released! Chapter 1 Art Update!

Release time, everybody! I thought about pushing this to next week, but I'd prefer not to delay TLS releases any longer.

April 5 Update

Buckle up, this is a big post with a lot going on! It won't all be relevant to everyone, but please check for the parts that are relevant to you.

Finished Scene Art Set #7: Last Set + Prologue

Guys, this is the last set for Chapter 1! Unless something has been entirely forgotten, we finally have everything, which means that the official art version can happen soon. More info on that in t...

March 29 Update

Momentum! Momentum is precious. I feel so much better on a day-to-day basis when I'm enjoying my work and making significant progress. ^-^ I hope everyone is managing with the world's current diffi...

March 22 Update

There are more important things going on in the world than my work, but since this is an update on that: this week sucked, creatively. I put in long hours and worked hard, but I just didn't make pr...

Quarantine Sale

Current events are hitting some people hard, in varying ways. Some are trapped at home more than usual, while others have messaged me to say they need to pull their patronage to get through. I abso...

March 15 Update: NGM Boxset Release

Promotion is the worst. -_- It's just soul-draining for me, even when it's successful. Yesterday wasn't even effective, as my map post didn't really catch on:

Finished Scene Art Set #6

A set of four finished scenes, plus Riala's character sheet, plus a bonus lingerie version. The Aka scene was redone because it was drawn before we did all our style testing and it didn't fit the c...

March 8 Update: TBS Release

Unusual post this week! I hope I can ask your attention for something a little outside the ordinary.

Normally I try not to ask you guys for much extra, because your support already forms the ...

TLS 0.49.4 Public Release

Notes and links on the blog:

March 1 Update

As we enter March, I feel like 2020 has gotten off to a good start. I had to push a little too hard, but I feel positive about what I did in updates 48 and 49, so I'm glad that they've been well-re...

TLS 0.49.2

UPDATE: I hope the version linked below is very nearly the public release, but I decided to let everyone try it early if they wanted.

The previous thread has over 300 comments, so ...

TLS 0.49.0 Released!

(Updated: No separate weekly update, since I don't really have anything new to say. Version 0.49.2 should hopefully come out a while later, including new content.)

New version is h...

February 16 Update

Though I never thought it was a realistic deadline, I've wished I could release TLS 0.49.0 this weekend. The timing of everything would have been very convenient, positioning TLS perfectly on the s...

February 9 Update

Everybody who didn't see the previous update: I'm fine! My furnace got fixed almost immediately on Monday, so I had a warm week. More importantly, I had an enjoyably productive week.

Building...

February 2 Update

It's so freaking cold. My furnace went out, but when the repairman came, he needed to leave to get a part. Then it was fixed for a day, but failed over night, so he had to come back, then get anoth...

Finished Scene Art Set: Stineford Edition

Generally fewer people are on at this hour, but my furnace is busted and it's freezing cold and so my schedule is off anyway. Might as well post for all the people in different time zones.

I ...

January 26 Update

It's been a while since we've done an update that was just focused on a single aspect of development. Since one of the things I did last week is suited to that, we'll do it.

Yhilin has update...

January 19 Update

I think 2020 has gotten off to a good start, but unfortunately I've had to spend some time lately on promotional junk. Hopefully that's almost over and I can focus on creative work. In theory I sho...

TLS 0.48.2 Public Release

New update and notes available on the blog:

January 12 Update

I'm pleased that players liked the first update of the year, especially the plot revelations. ^-^ The optional fights seem to need some tuning, but I hope we'll move toward a smooth public release....

TLS 0.48.0 Released!

Update time! New version link will soon be below.

2019 in Review

Time for another yearly review, looking back on what was done and forward to what comes next. Overall, 2019 was a year of experimentation for me. Some time was wasted on dead ends, and I regret tha...

December 29 Update

For the past two years, I've done darker reviews for my last update of the year, laying out negative issues in order to start the new year fresh. This year, I find that is no longer necessary. Plea...

December 22 Update

This weekend would have been the one where I would have tried to rush out a TLS update. I really appreciate everyone's patience in letting me have better work/life balance, as I feel better having ...
