Problem is right now as I understand it Devs don't have to make an update. They just have to post (I believe) monthly and they are good. So basically it could be 2 years between updates and they can see be getting paid as long as the keep doing post on Patreon.

Sin saying "It'll be ready when its ready" and that he wont answer when asked about update release. You've got to be really dumb to give him any money.

If you have low morale, it means more dominating scenes with the girls. Like for example if you have high morale, some options during the sex scenes are blocked because you don't have enough low morale and girls aren't corrupted enough to get them do it.

Morality is basically a stat you need to focus on reducing as quickly as possible :angel:

He had the exact same excuse word for word a few years ago, except that he had atleast typed up a paragraph, the guy has gotten so lazy that he couldn't do the same again

Doesn't mean much, because almost everytime he says a post come "today" he doesn't post "today"

Hey everyone
We are working on the 0.17 update and that is what I wanna share some details about.
It started as just a regular update, but then I got to planning the cool things I wanted to add for a long time now. So I just kept going and we have a huge update on our hands. I don't mind it, because I'm finally going to add the stuff I should have done a long time ago.
We're expanding the sandbox aspect of the game to be actually meaningful.
So what does that mean in practice?
It means that there is a proper timetable for each character at Harding Residence, for each day of the week. (And not just them, but more about that another time)
So, for example, Joyce on Wednesdays will be:
- Having coffee in the Kitchen in the Morning
- At Work in the Afternoon
- Bathing in the Bathroom in the Evening
- Sleeping in her Bedroom at Night
- Sunbathing by the Pool in the Morning
- Reading a book in the Livingroom in the Afternoon
- You can catch her again in the Bathroom in the Evening
- Sleeping in her Bedroom at Night
Some of these items on the timetable will also change dynamically based on the story. For example: Ruby doesn't have a job in the beginning, but once she starts working in the boutique, you will find her there, working (when she actually bothers to get to work) and later on when she starts to work for Connor, she will be found at the office.
Now, why is this important?
Because each time you see one of the girls, you will be able to trigger a scene with them. And not just a "one off". It will be a scene that will evolve the closer you are to the girl.
For example, at the beginning of the game, when you enter the bathroom with one of the girls inside, you will most likely get yelled at and be asked to leave. But after getting on their good sides a bit, you can enter the bathroom while they are in there, hop in the bathtub and shower together and... I think you can guess where that is going
And this isn't for just the bathroom. I came up with some perverted or sexy fun for each of the activities the girls do. And you will be able to progress each of these scenes.
These will be called the "Sandbox Scenes" from now on. As to the regular Story Scenes, those will be triggered on their own with a new system, that won't automatically start the scene once you enter the room, so it won't interrupt you if you are out for some of the Sandbox Scenes at the time.
Now, the goal here is to make sure I don't spend thousands of hours on these new Sandbox Scenes because I actually would like to finish Midnight Paradise one day. So these will be short and sweet - the way they should be in my opinion. We don't need 15 renders of putting sunscreen on Ruby's back. But when we get to the good parts (sunscreen on tits for example), I'll make sure to spend the correct amount of time on it.
And most of these scenes will progress all the way - so eventually, hot and steamy sex. (But first, you will have to get there with them in the Story Scenes)
I'll make sure to put extra attention on those ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
And just one more thing to mention: The plan for this update was to focus on Ruby, and I'm not gonna abandon that, so that will still go into the update and we will continue her storyline.
This post is already getting really long, so I will talk about these in later posts:
- How to get to the "next level" or how to progress the Sandbox Scenes
- Changes to the in-game map
- Heavily expanding the phone content
- Expanding dialogue and choices throughout the whole game
- Possible UI changes
So as you can see, the 0.17 update is going to be a massive one, but this is the most inspiring so far. Feels like I'm making a new game
That of course comes with a lot of planning and the 'logistics' of it, but we're getting there.I'll post more renders until then, I'll bring some spicy ones too.
And as always, huge thanks for your great support!

Oh, thank god, i was worried he was wasting time with the sex scenes, thankfully he's working on the stuff that really matters, time tables... after 2 years of development so that nobody will see them because i can't think of anything better to do than to start from scratch to watch a scene where i get kicked out of the bathroom and yelled at

It will be complete dogshit update as per usual.Whenever you hear "sandbox" , "new game mechanics" you already know its garbage.Its like what 2 years deep into development , and instead of firstly going trough story scenes and main girl content.He does the dogshit sandbox elements tha nobody wants that could've been easily implented after main story and girls reach finals stages. TL DR , Dont bother with this game for another year minimum, and support better devs that are plentiful here.

Kind of the usual stuff. But let's look at her Saturday:
- Having coffee in the Kitchen in the Morning
- At Work in the Afternoon
- Bathing in the Bathroom in the Evening
- Sleeping in her Bedroom at Night
And as you can see on the images above, there are multiple actions in the rooms, so on Friday for example, Joyce will be getting ready in the bathroom instead of bathing, Ruby has 3 kinds of activity in the bathroom, and so on. You can see the pool will be a lot more popular, especially around the weekend, where the girls will spend some time in the sun in various ways.
- Sunbathing by the Pool in the Morning
- Reading a book in the Livingroom in the Afternoon
- You can catch her again in the Bathroom in the Evening
- Sleeping in her Bedroom at Night
