I’m really enjoying this! It’s a little story/dialogue heavy, and it doesn’t have as much weight gain as I usually like(“yet…?”, he said hopefully), but said story is very good, and so is the kink content that’s shown up so far!

I did just run into a little graphical bug.


Victor got belched at so hard he turned into exercise equipment. But it’s Victor, so…

Thanks, glad you’re enjoying it. I know it’s pretty story-heavy and not very interactive.

There’s more weight gain in later episodes.

Damn, I thought I fixed this…

Finally, someone put some respect(?) on best girls name. I live and die by the Ange Ass. For once she was the eaten, now she is the eater. Ange is best girl, but a certain green clad gal with pigtails is definitely a close second.

Just gave this game a whirl, and I’ve gotta say…good work’s been done here! Very much reminded me of Apostles, but with less mindfuck-y lore and more…space. The characters are charming, the games got a unique style (I loved seeing the physical improvement of the CG art with each passing chapter), and you really left me wondering where the plot’s heading. Looking to seeing what comes next! :slight_smile:

Thanks. Yeah, Apostles was the biggest inspiration although we’re different people so it should hopefully feel like its own thing.

I fixed the “Victor turning into an exercise bike” thing (again) and some other small errors I noticed, but it’s not uploaded yet since it’s not game-breaking and I’ve already started doing work on the next update. I don’t have a time frame for the next release, but it should be this year?? I finished Episode 5 surprisingly quickly last year which I would have started around this time, so I guess we’ll see.

I have some pretty good ideas I think if I can execute them well.

I feel like Paul becomes smarter after taking off helmet
It’s my first time playing it, i decided to finally give it it a try because i assumed that 7 episodes would be enough to make weight gain content be abundant. SO far i’m trying to “solve” the mystery and i probably don’t understand some parts of story while also forgetting about some stuff that already happened, but i definitely like most of characters.
Thank you for making this game

I have an idea I’m mostly done with, it’ll be in the next update.

Character evolution.

There’s a little bit at this point. I don’t know about abundant yet.

Thanks for playing!

I’ve been doing the early work for the next update, mainly the outline and map layout stuff. I want to try to have Ep8 finished before year end, although part of my plan is to also complete certain “substories” which would allow me to release something playable before then.

At the very least the next update should have:

  1. Older episode fixes, mainly graphic errors I’ve noticed or been pointed out
  2. I made the Ep4 badend harder to miss in the first special room
  3. A goofy Ep7 BTS available between Ep7 and Ep8
  4. A mostly* free roam map to walk around in with Veska and James
  5. An eating/stuffing subplot involving a bunch of people at the maid cafe
  6. An inflation subplot involving teleporters in the research complex area

I wanted to have this done for the 2 year anniversary (10/7), but I don’t think that’s going to happen, maybe end of October? And then the rest of Ep8 by year end.

We await the continuation of Peak, may the Ange Ass give you strength.

The ep 5 BTS awakened something inside me and make me look at the stuffing fetish in a new light. Do you plan to add more stuff like that rarely as optional what if side content? If it was a one off thing it’s cool. I’m still here for the story at the end of the day.

@Lavon_Mcnair
Do you mean the vore? I did it as a special request for a fan; it’s not really my thing. I don’t mind bonus scenes being more fantastical and…not following my vision. In other words it’s possible I do more stuff like that in optional bonus scenes, but I think it’s very unlikely to be a thing in the main game/story.

To clarify, i don’t want those scenes in the main story either and id rather it be rare bonus scenes, However if you feel uncomfortable doing that, i’m not gonna complain or force you and i’ll still play the story regardless since its very good.

2 Years Celebration!
Tonight will mark 2 years since the first release came out. I did a doodle recently to celebrate:

Also, not entirely unrelated I did a drunk OL boss Thymi last week so I can share that here too:

Beer with Boss

Game Progress
I’ve been working on the first Episode 8 part (Episode 8 Part 1?). I’m trying to work on it every day of this month of October if I can. The Ep7 BTS is roughly done now. I still have a lot of work to do for the two planned substories but I’m getting there. I don’t want to reveal most stuff so you’ll have to take my word on that. I don’t feel like it’ll all be done by the end of October but I will try. Otherwise sometime November feels more realistic considering this is basically 2 full mini-episodes for me. I really want Episode 8 finished in 2025 if possible.

Patreon
The Patreon has been nice because it’s cool to see people who want to support more of my game enough to give me money. I’m not hurting financially, but I’ve tried adding a monthly art for the Patreon as another bonus for people willing to do that. It seems like it’ll be a Halloween piece with Riley and Mira this month.

Other Stuff
This has been true for years, but I am struggling with my free time and mental health. I write a lot of my game at work when I can get away with it. Before making this game I was really starting to feel mentally destroyed (and bored). I still feel that way half the time, but my game has helped. A lot of my family are taxing and irresponsible which burdens me emotionally and financially. Creating this game has been very liberating for me and gives me a way to handle my job and family stresses. I like having this mental stress release and I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon because I love doing it.

Okay fine I’ll share a small sneak peek of next time:

I’ve now played up to early Episode 3, and among other things, I have come to the following assessment:

The Spies have already breached our defences… You’ve seen what they’ve done to our colleagues! And worst of all, they could be any one of us. They could be in this very room! They could be you. They could be me! They could even be-

The music is also phenomenal. I love the jaunty 60s/70s feeling so much of it has.

Aesthetically, I like Ange and Thymi most, but Mira has such a charming personality. She’s honestly a joy. So far I haven’t seen much of the male cast, but Doppelgänger Cody is quite intriguing, I feel sympathy for James having lost his closest friend?, and Phil is just an amusing counterbalance to Ange’s impetuousness.

Are the effects plaguing Mira a result of Veska’s blood making contact with her body?

A Cry For Help and Harvest and the Harvester were hilarious.

Cool I’m glad you’re enjoying it. My impression is that people like Episode 4 onward more so you’re getting to the “better parts” now.

I take most of the music off of khinsider or youtube, it’s mainly from older video games. I’ve tried crediting composers in the Credits text file inside the game folder now.

They’re a role model figure in his life, although calling them friends wouldn’t be inaccurate especially when he was older.

Probably.

I wouldn’t say anything up to this point hasn’t been good. Rather, I’ve found the story quite enjoyable. I honestly forgot I was playing a kink game in Episode 3 till Paul’s silly wrist-mounted hose made an appearance. Then I forgot all over again because Episode 4 was a joy; I very much liked the who-done-it mystery.

I’ve decided to focus on the maid cafe story only so I can push for a release this month in October. I don’t think I can finish two substories for the same update so I’d rather focus on the one I have more work done in, sorry berry fans. After the maid cafe substory I’ll focus on the R&D substory and lastly the prison substory.

Things I’ve already done:

  1. Ep7 BTS is 90% complete I just need to do finishing touches.
  2. Fixed some errors I noticed or were pointed out in earlier episodes.
  3. Updated all of Charu’s faces to look better
  4. Explorable Tivallon map*

*not fully explorable

Plan for October:
Maid cafe substory (this will involve Veska and James as well as quite a few other characters, I shouldn’t spoil who although I guess I’ll tease that Ange will be there, this will involve belly stuffing fetish as well as probably some generally fatter characters)
Plan for November:
R&D substory (this will involve berry inflation fetish)
Plan for December:

Prison substory, Ep8 conclusion?

I want to do a conclusion for Ep8 after you do all three of the substories. You can choose to do the substories in whatever order you want, but once all three are done the story will advance to the epilogue for Ep8. Obviously for this next release there will only be the one choice, but once I’ve actually made all of them then in the future players can actually do them in whatever order they want as they look around the map.
