Corvid remembering to post? Unheard of. Lots of progress has been made with the script, some more voice lines have been coded in, og sprite has gotten updates, and the first alternate outfit sprite has been made! #amaregame #visualnovel #indiedev #renpy #datingsim #indiegame #indiedev #vndev #update

Gods are gone.
Lands wither beneath a cursed sun.
What is there left to seek?
Perhaps you are the key — but not to the world’s salvation.

SUN'S CARESS is a fantasy #otome, made by a solo developer, where romance and heartbreak intertwine.
Choose wisely who you'll fall for.

Progress on Extort My Heart! A few lines for Nova have been recorded and coded in! Soon you'll be able to hear Nova call you a good boy/girl/etc! Or call you a loser if that's what you're into! #amaredev #amaregame #visualnovel #indiedev #renpy #datingsim #indiegame #indiedev #vndev #update

Hey! Just a quick update: Taking care of orphan kittens is a lot of work! But I'm still making progress on Extort My Heart! Some outlines for chats have been rewritten, some basic code for a new mini game is in the debugging phase, and some small script changes have been implemented. Stay tuned! 💜

Looks like the cat distribution system decided to celebrate the update with me cuz these kittens were found in my parking lot right as it was uploading. Mom never came back so now I’m syringe feeding them. Looking forward to my two hour blocks of sleep cuz they need to be fed every 2-3 hours 🫠😻

It will be awhile until I go looking for a VA for Nova, but I don't want to go back in later to find everywhere I wanted a voiced line to be. Might be a compromise to record some lines myself and replace them later. I'm not a VA tho so I'm worried it might spoil the experience to some players🤔

New feature! Personality quiz! It changes tons of choices and dialogue! Don't like the result? Choose to take the quiz again or just pick the result you want! What Nova doesn't know she can't tease you over! #amaredev #amaregame #amaregamesfestival #visualnovel #indiedev #datingsim #indiegame #vndev

Hey hey! Extort My Heart wasn’t the only Shitty Gal Jam project I worked on! If you’re into some toxic Yuri then check out My Little Pop Star! It’s a collaborative effort between a lot of lovely people. Enjoy!

A character profile for the character 'Nova.' She is a woman with multicolored hair, a black fox mask with a crescent moon on the forehead and star freckles, and is wearing black knee socks, and a tanktop with a sheer overshirt. It says: she is smug, flirty, teasing, and mean. Her pronouns are she/her. Her occupation is blackmailer. Her likes are bossing people around, foxes, and money- especially yours. There is also a quote from her saying, "So long as I am thoroughly entertained you'll have time to pay up."

Made the first CG for my next game 'Extort My Heart' last night! Don't keep asking Nova to draw you after she's already said no- or do! That's how you get this CG after all!

Progress update! Aside from a bit more coding and writing I thought I'd share the animation I just made that'll play when the chatroom opens up! #visualnovel #shittygaljam #animation

Ahh I was so excited to voice Bea! Such a fun experience to work with everyone!

I have a new game out for the Trans Joy Jam!
In a mini-sequel to #LoreDistanceRelationship (a Neopets tribute game), Bea visits Kayla's dorm. As the two try a new feature on Ruffians, Bea gets the opportunity to come out.
Link to play in the replies! ⬇️🐶

The sad part of writing is sometimes having to admit something you spent a lot of time on just isn't working for the story you're trying to tell. I had fun and spent hours on it but major change or simply a full cut is sadly needed 😔

About 2,000 words today! Was hoping for more but dinner calls. Maybe I'll start up again before bed since it's the weekend! Tbh part of me misses the short deadline of the game jam lmao. Endless motivation and a pinch or two or ten of stress 😂

OMG! We passed 500 downloads while I was on vacation! Best holiday present ever! Posted an update on what's to come on itch. Enjoy this drawing of our festive rabbit boy. Too much glitter? No such thing in Grayson's world ✨💜✨ #indiedev #indiegame #indievn #renpy #vndev #renpy
Drawing of the character Grayson from the game Lost and Found looking festive for the holiday season with a red sweater and a santa hat with bunny ears. They're holding a whiteboard that says "Thank you! 500!!" with a bunch of doodles on it. Fireworks can be seen in the window behind him, and the background is decorated with lights, bows, and poinsettia.

Writers block is hitting hard so I'm staying productive by adding some neopronoun options to the game 👏 Just added in xe/xem! Thinking fae/faer next. Room for more so if you have one you want to see let me know! I've got room for more lmao
Grayson says "Respect peoples pronouns~"
