Tailor Tales is being created with RPG Maker MV. Currently, the version of RPG Maker MV that Tailor Tales was running on, was version 1.3. The newest version of RPG Maker MV is 1.6. Version 1.3 can be quite slow and it's missing a lot of improvements. But upgrading was a pain and it broke a lot of my code.
So for the past few months, we've been t...
2018-11-15 20:44:23 +0000 UTC View PostBecause I'm getting a lot of people who pledge to the Patron and have not read that it is Windows only, let me remind everyone:
Tailor Tales early access is WINDOWS only. On that note, Tailor Tales Plus will ALWAYS be Windows only.
Why no Mac? Because there are many errors in the Mac version that I cannot fix because I do n...

Wrote chapters 8-11 for Caine's route! His script is now at 55k and about halfway finished. Caine is so much fun to write because he's got such a potty mouth. Yep, be prepared for some swear words finally cropping up in Tailor Tales!
Other than that, thi...
2018-11-10 02:49:36 +0000 UTC View PostDimitri's epilogue for the Plus version was something I experimented with a lot. Originally I wanted 4 different types of sex scenes.
Basically my intention was:
- Write about an assertive MC and shy Dimitri
- Write about a shy MC and an assertive Dimitri
- Write about an assertive MC and assertive Dimitri
- Write about a shy MC and a...

2018-11-03 19:05:01 +0000 UTC View PostI've decided to run an interview for each of the characters! Now you can ask them anything you want and they may answer it later on. Always wanted to know something about one of your favourite guy? Now is the time to ask! Click the link to interview the guys.

Bugfixes/Updates:
- Fixed an issue where you could select a colour for the CGs that should not have been an option
Honestly, nothing much to report, because I've been very busy reading Steam documentation and getting Tailor Tales approved on Steam. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten achievements worked out yet, but I did get ...
2018-10-12 00:49:12 +0000 UTC View PostSomeone mentioned that because Dimitri has so much fanservice, in particular getting 4 shirtless CGs, they said it felt a little unfair to Neil.
So I went back and redrew his 2nd CG. This one now has two versions; topless and clothed. You can ask Neil to take his shirt off in Chapter 8, when you are measuring him for his blazer.
Back when I...

In celebration of me finally finishing up his epilogue, here's Dimitri's ending credits sketch (all guys get one). It will be coloured in the game.
2018-09-26 03:46:48 +0000 UTC View PostI'm running a poll to determine which guy is the most popular in terms of appearance! I will have to feature this good looking guy on Tailor Tales' Steam page :)
So please vote in the poll! https://goo.gl/forms/nzdbax662JV65cQO2
2018-09-23 14:03:57 +0000 UTC View PostFinally finished up his final CG, which is for Tailor Tales Plus only!
Now that I've got the art out of the way, I can actually start working on Dimitri's epilogue. This CG took 3 days, ahhhh.

2018-09-14 01:36:58 +0000 UTC View PostI'm experimenting with Dimitri's Plus epilogue so that there's more options and actions during sex.
So if you were playing Dimitri's route and got to the sex scene, which would you rather have?

2018-09-03 09:32:56 +0000 UTC View PostSo I finally went ahead to make a guide for Neil's route. This shows you how to complete all of his important clients!
2018-08-30 14:58:07 +0000 UTC View PostI'm a fan of reading dark text on light backgrounds, however, it's a pretty polarized opinion. A lot of other people prefer reading light text on a dark background, easier on the eyes for them.
With Tailor Tales, you were forced to read dark on light. However, I've now added in the option to toggle 'night mode' for easier reading, so that the tex...

Two new sketches!
Since Dimitri had one character who needed a sprite, and Caine's route needed another female character as well, I decided to merge them. So meet Chelsey; she appears in both Dimitri and Caine's route, though her 'history' will differ. 2018-08-27 22:27:28 +0000 UTC View Post

Not the final version, will be tweaked just a tiny bit more.
Talk about a cliffhanger, huh? ;)
