In the last post I mentioned that in my plans for October is to make a demo. Well, the good news is that it exists, the bad news is that it really shows that there is still a lot of work to be done, except for the missing assets the game needs a lot of overall polish. This is to say, that I want to give you a realistic expectation regarding the ...

Hey guys & gals,
I just wanted you to know that I'm basically taking a break from the development in August, I wanted to pause the billing like I did the last time, but it seems that it also prevents new memberships, not sure why is that way. Anyway, I always want to be transparent about this stuff, so now you know. I have some n...

N'gha-Thogtha n'ghft, gnaiih hupadgh wgah'nagl fhtagn.
Just finished a major edit of the script - the story felt all over the place and overcomplicated, but now it is heading in the direction I am much happier with. That being said, I think it is time to talk about the overall status of chapter 6, since I think it is on...

With that clickbait title out of the way, I actually have a big announcement to make. For some time now I am not satisfied with the visual side of TCFM. I know that many of you like Alice just the way it is, but I find the 3D both limiting for me and more importantly, not fun for me anymore. So, with Chapter 5 (which concludes Arc I) TCFM indeed...

This release is gonna be a bit different from the "usual", as BETA stage might take a little bit longer (let's say 3 weeks instead of the usual 1 to updated beta and 1 to full release, this one is gonna be more like 2 + 1). There are two reasons, one is that I won't be able to work on the game during most of the holidays, and two is that certain...

Hey, first of all, since many of you asked (and I sometimes answered), I think december is the month. But I won't give you any release date yet. This also probably mean that I will unpause the billing, but I will confirm that towards the end of this month, so there will be at least one more status update.
Also, there is one more thin...

As you have probably noticed, patreon introduced a change how it handles subscriptions (they will charge you a month after you have become patron, not on 1st). This is now active for me as well, however since the billing is paused there is really no change for you at the moment, you will only be charged when you become a patron.
Anyway, as...

Hey guys and gals, so it really seems that chapter 5 won't be released this month either, sorry about that. In the last post, I mentioned that I would refund all of you if that happens, but it seems that patreon doesn't really have a refund all kind of button, so I've decided to pause the billing for September instead and if you want a refund no...

Hey guys, I have some news.
At the end of last year I left my job - I needed to take a break and I've also wanted to spend more time on my games. Originally, I intended to focus on TCFM as I've felt that the development is too slow and so I wanted to push the game forward a bit. As it happened, shortly after that I've received an off...

Yeah, you've read that right!
So, the revisions of the current chapters will be released this month, but apart from small additions in the terms of content I've decided that I'll throw in some new content as well, and by that I mean "chapter 5" content. Chapter 5 in quotes, because I want to actually extend chapter 4 up to a certain point,...

First of all, about Karacan 0.2, I think I'll make it this month, but I am not making any promises, the progress is a little slow the last few days as I find it harder to focus than usual.
I was thinking about how to approach this whole situation and even though I realize that my reach and influence are very limited, I'd like to do a...

Hey guys & gals,
I've been working on a little project of mine for some time now (only had to delay it because of upcoming chapter 4 release). I know what you think, another project? Well, yeah. Sorry! This game is a bit different, as you'll see for sure. Oh and I'll release 0.1 tomorrow for all of my patrons. Unlike UB this will be mo...

The script is pretty much finished, I just need to render a few images, and put it all together + testing and proofreading, should be out in a few days.
Also, just a heads up, the Beta won't have any animations, they will be added later in the updated beta and full release for individual "routes".

Chapter 3 BETA will be out any day now. I know I originally stated that my estimate is late September and that was due to the fact that I will have a vacation in early to mid September. This will still have an effect on the release schedule, normally the "Updated Beta" will drop a week after Beta Release and full release week af...

I hope y'all are enjoying the summer! Are you having fun on the beach like Heather here? Or maybe looking for the ancient city of R'lyeh?
Aaanyway, chapter 3 will be probably the smallest in size so far (the following 1-2 chapters will be however most likely bigger than average). When can you expect it? Not sure to be honest, no "silly sea...

Hi guys & gals,
regarding the release schedule - a new chapter should be published every 2-3 months, which is realistically the best what I can do right now (with work and all other stuff).
I will also continue with a regular weekly sneak peek or a status report

Hi guys & gals, this is first promo for the upcoming game (as well as name reveal). I will drop a few more this month, but I'm sure you'll be busy cyberpunking your ass off.

Hi guys & gals,
as I've mentioned in earlier posts, rendering the same way is just not possible for me right now, so I've taught about the alternatives and only feasible one for me is to downscale resolution. So the resolution of the renders will most likely be 640p. I know, not very 21st century, sorry.
As changing resolution fr...

Hi guys & gals, it took far longer than I anticipated. Unfortunately the rendering speed of my laptop is abysmal and we are moving forwards at very slow pace. Since I don't have money for reasonably powerful desktop for rendering and rendering in cloud is crazy expensive, I am looking on the other options.
Now to the beta ve...

Hi guys & gals,
I am sure some of you are wondering when you can see the chapter 2. Well, (un)fortunately the pandemic didn't impact my workload, so there is only so much time I can spend on this project. I hope all of you are healthy though.
The script for chapter 2 is finished and send to proofreader. Together we've also rewrit...

I need to render one bigly scene and several small ones, so the release should be in a week or two.

Hi guys & gals, after reading some critics I have decided to completely rewrite my story.
I sort of regret not releasing bigger first version, but I think my original story would be buried under artificial school settings that have no relation to the story I wanted to present, so I am glad I could make this decision this early.
