This fellow here goes by Blake!
This jackal has the honor of being the first person to greet Dan once he arrives at the party.
He's got a silver tongue, and has no problem talking his way out of any situation he finds himself in. A skill he'll likely find very useful in the coming days...

Say hello to our game's protagonist, Dan!
This red panda has a good heart, but he certainly has a hard time expressing it!
Hopefully his decision-making skills are on point, otherwise he'll be in for a rough time...

Hello everyone! I'm happy to finally officially announce what I've been working on for these last few months!
Trainwreck is the name of that project! I'll be releasing regular updates here on patreon.
I've got a lot of things to show you before the release, so keep an eye on th...
Hello!
This post is a heads up that, with all of the concept art completed, I'll be announcing the game officially next Sunday the 25th! Following that announcement, I'll be doing weekly character reveals every Sunday, hopefully leading up to the release of the VN. Thank you for your patience, this is my first project where I'm doing almost a...
Hi all! It's been a while, so it feels like it's time to update you on what I've been working on for the last month.
Pictured above are the busts of the last three characters you'll be meeting in the first version of my new project! With the addition of the seven characters shown to you last time, that makes nine fully sprited characters i...

Hey everyone! Hope you're enjoying your spring!
First, the elephant in the room.
BEYOND the HARBOR r is not cancelled. I've was progressing smoothly on BtHr development until a few weeks ago, where, after crunching some numbers, came to the tough conclusion that the game was getting too expensive to work on for the time being. ...

Hi, everyone!
I'll keep it short this time, I'm in the middle of development for the five point five release of BtHr.
In addition to new content, this update adds all of JC and Sam's new expressions to the rest of the game, so it's been a very lengthy process for me to add them all. It's a very tedious process, but I think it'll be w...

Hey all!
With BURROWS APB now out for the public, I'll be shifting my focus back to BtHr. The chapter five point five release in particular, which is the update that adds JC and Sam's expressions to the main game and the JC side story!
This release should be out around mid February if everything goes well, so I hope you're looking fo...

Hello!
This is not a drill, linked below is a full VN you can download and play!
BURROWS a paradise beyond was originally a much smaller project I was making to celebrate BURROWS' 1st anniversary, back in October. However, one thing lead to another, and the scope of the project expended drastically!

Hey.
It's been a fair while since I've made a post here, so it only seems natural to give an update.
Well, not to seem too down in the dumps, (seasonal depression punched me in the balls this year) I've got some good news! Shown above, Ruler's finally finished the expression sheets for Sam and JC! I've only shown a few of the possibl...

Hey everyone! Long time no see!
October was a crazy month, but I managed to claw my way through it somehow! But more importantly, what's been going on development-wise?
Well, as you can see above, expressions are closer to being done than ever before! Sorry they've taken so long, Ruler has been a bit slow to get around to them.
BEYOND the HARBOR r SIDE 01: reconsider
is releasing soon!
Thank you for being patient, this short little story needed as many art assets as an entire regular build of the game, hah. SIDE 01: will be exclusive to patrons for a little while after it releases, exactly one month.
SIDE content will have a special focus on stories abou...

Why hello there, friends! Been a little while.

Today I am very very proud to announce the patreon release of BtHr chapter five!
This release marks the halfway point of the game, isn't that exciting? We've now become acquainted with every character in this stor...
Hey y'all, sorry for the late post this month.
I know I've teased it before, but most of this month has been spent working on a super secret project of mine while I wait for the art team to finish the necessary assets to put out BtHr chapter five. The writing has been done since last month, but Ruler got snagged with some IRL stuff, so it'...

Hey y'all.
Good news to share today, everything is on track to release chapter five (working title: rekindle) approximately one month from now, in mid July!
This update will be pretty meaty, to boot. We're hoping to get that out on time, and follow with a patch that adds... Character expressions! Very exciting!
There are a few thi...

The post today featuring none other than Don. Shown above are the (in progress) versions of his sprite for BtHr.
This lad has had quite the journey, becoming the game's most disliked character over the course of two years. For context, I started running a survey with the 0.2 release of the original BEYOND THE HARBOR, and my favorite catego...

Good news, everybody!
Almost everything is together for the release of BtHr chapter four! We're hoping to get it out to you patrons in the first half of May!
It's been a really long dev cycle, but I hope y'all didn't mind me taking some time off to make The Gang Goes Through the McDonald's Drive Thru. It was a blast to work on, an...
Hey y'all! Been a while!
Sam's Icon is pictured above, drawn by Captain Nikko. What a rascal!
BTH development continues, though this time, it looks like the end of chapter four development is finally in sight!
The writing's been done for quite some time, but I've been using this extra time to enhance what's there, and give i...
Howdy folks.
A new VN's released to celebrate this special day! I had a great time collaborating with the other VN developers to get it out to you, I'd appreciate if y'all went and checked it out.
Thank you as always for your support and your patience, BtHr development is now resuming now that TGGTtMDT is complete.
A new, one-shot VN, made in collaboration with all of your favorite VN creators.
Please look forward to the release in three days!
Hey y'all, it's Harmonious again. So soon, I know!
I was hoping to have the BtHr chapter four update ready for you in mid March, but there's been a bit of a snag in development, and we're likely going to shoot for April now. Sorry that there's been such a big delay on this one, but real life circumstances have been getting in the way time,...

Hey y'all,
Let's start with some good news, all of the writing for BtHr chapter four: rendezvous is complete! It has been for a little while, it's a short, art-heavy chapter. Since I finished the writing for the chapter so quickly, I wanted to spend a little time working on backend stuff. For instance, the images of JC and Sam sho...

Hey, everyone.
Sorry I've been away for a while, I've been dealing with a pretty nasty spell of seasonal depression, but things are on their way back to being normal, thankfully.
I'm well underway working on the BtHr chapter four script, it's a little under halfway done, I'd say. Since we're still pretty early in development for this...

I apologize for the lack of any significant news lately, but despite life's best effort to keep me down, progress on the chapter three update for BtH:r continues at a steady pace. The writing is nearly done, and the first half has already been through the editing process. We're still aiming to releas...
