James' 3rd CG
Finished James' 3rd CG! This will appear in chapter 14.
It's a mirror scene of the 2nd CG, in that MC is the one to protect James this time around.

2020-04-03 23:22:46 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome new Patreons!
With Caine's release out, a bunch of new people joined the Patreon, and I want to welcome them!
The game will get updated on the 4th, as usual, and you'll get 2 new chapters for James' route (chapters 10 and 11).
So stay tuned until then! :)
2020-03-31 19:09:59 +0000 UTC View PostNeil glasses
Since Neil got a new design for his appearance in James' route, I was wondering if I should add glasses.
So, what do you think?
2020-03-26 21:41:56 +0000 UTC View PostBiweekly update #39
Caine's route is now available free to play for non-Patreon users.
For Patreons, nothing changes. Plus is still only available through Patreon.
That's all I was working on the past couple of weeks; Caine's release!

2020-03-18 20:12:18 +0000 UTC View PostSam > Gray
The #1 outfit won, so this is Gray's redesign! Thanks for all the votes :)
I figured it'd be fun to put it all in a row of how his design changes through the years.
Originally named Roy (the flirt), changed to Sam in 2016 (added glasses), and eventually changed to Gray in 2020 (sorry glasses fans). The name change from Sam to Gray wa...

After 100 votes, the winner from the previous poll was outfit #5, the black shirt and ripped pants combo with silver necklaces. I figured this outfit would suit him the most when he's in high school.
However, he still needs an outfit for when he's an adult! So I picked out the most popular outfits from the previous poll and made a new one....

2020-03-04 03:33:05 +0000 UTC View PostPost full CGs before or after?
There's no way to add spoilers in Patreon, so if I post a CG, everyone sees it, even if they don't want to.
Some people like seeing the process, and some people would prefer not to get spoiled. The time it takes for a CG to be finished, to actually being included in the game, is about 2 months (hence why I tend to show it earlier).

Finished up James' 2nd CG! At first, I had planned his 2nd CG to be the one where he's naked and in a bath, but people were clear they would prefer this version - the one where MC is in it! This will show up in chapter 10.

Writer found!
After a bunch of applicants (including from a couple of Patreons, thank you so much!), I've found a writer that really impressed me, and I feel confident they can write Gray's route while still staying true to my own general style.
Thank you so much for continuing to support me on Patreon, as I'm able to afford a second writer to help me o...

I've been thinking a lot about the future of Tailor Tales. Currently I'm working on James' route, of course, and next in line is Aiden. James is projected to be finished at the end of this year, or early 2021.
Aiden is a very niche character. He is nerdy, kind of perpetually scared, suffers from social anxiety and of cours...

Caine's promotional cover
To promote the release for Caine's route (for the free version), I decided to draw a cover art of him, sitting on a throne. Completely different colouring style as well!
I have no concrete release date yet, but hopefully this month or next month <3

Just got the song back from composer Joel Steudler (he's amazing, I wish I could afford him to replace the entire OST), and it was so amazing, I had to share.
I requested a romantic song for a very specific scene for James (chapter 26, so it will take a while). If you need any context, it's basically their confession scene and there's flyi...

A while back, Patreons had the opportunity to add their name to a list of names that James' VA would voice.
The VA has finally completed his work! It will take me a while to organize all of the files, as it's like 800 files haha. If your name was on the list, James will actually voice it IF it comes up in the story. Currently, James is ref...
