Background girl #1

This girl is Dutch, and kinda shy. Not much else to say about her.

Background girl naming polls

Sup. So as you may know, the second-year students will be returning to Stormside in the next update, and unsurprisingly, it's mostly girls, because of course it is.

Rather than coming up with names myself, I decided to ask my Discord server for some names for each girl, that'll then come down to a vote here on Patreon.

There are...

Development update #12 (About v0.22)

(Due to almost all of the morning scene being Riley, I don't have all that many pictures from this update which aren't her yet, so here's the one of Sasha in a dress for the new tier. Info below.

Sup, so I figured I'd do an update because there are a few things that have happened that I've talked about in discord,  but not everyone he...

Development update #11 (About v0.22)

Sup nerds, enjoy the random picture of Riley.

So it's April now. Nuts. I'm still working on 0.22, and I'll admit progress is somewhat slow. The aftermath of Riley's party has turned out to have many possibilities depending on what happens, so I'm having to do a fairly stupid amount of renders for it, and events that can happen. I've almost...

Development update #10 (about v0.22)

Lol I forgot about this. I was supposed to do a dev update last week, but yeah. Instead you get it now.

So as you might guess, I've been working on 0.22, and currently don't have too much to share on it yet, as I'm trying out a bit of a different workflow. Previously, I would do the renders and the dialogue writing at the same t...

Stormside v0.21.02 Patch

Don't get too excited, this isn't a big content patch somehow made at the speed of light. This is a patch which addresses some of the ghost hunt issues.

So the response to the big spooky ghost hunt has been fun. Fairly mixed, and a lot of the same issues being raised. So, I've made a patch for it which changes a whole bunch about it. Full ...

Development update #9

So 0.21 has been out for the public for a few days now, and generally speaking, feedback has been good. However, one thing that have been raised quite a bit is that a lot of people were getting confused by the navigation in the ghost hunt, so I'm currently working on a little patch that should help with that, due for release either tomorrow, or ...

Stormside 0.21.01 released for the public :D (And also a patch for the patrons)

For some reason this took 3 hours to upload. Bit annoying. Here's some download links.

Full game.

Stormside 0.21 release for Student tier :D

Bugfix patch isn't ready yet, but it's mostly for stuff in previous updates like typos and things. There are unfortunately a few typos in 0.21, but the patch will them too hopefully.

Also, I've now fixed the issues Andrew reported...

Quick note for the new professors

I've noticed a few people have upgraded to the professor tier in the last week, which is greatly appreciated of course. (Even if it's only temporary to get the update earlier than otherwise. Still counts.)

I'm a little bit behind on custom renders at the moment, due to spending just about every waking hour either working, or trying to get...

STORMSIDE v0.21

Ok so I'm a week late, whoops... I should probably stop bothering making estimates.

Anyway, here's v0.21 :D Mostly featuring Sasha and Riley, but every character makes an appearance in one form or another (But if you don't like Sasha or Riley, and aren't playing their stories, you might wanna skip this one)

2100+ new renders

Small delay possible on 0.21

Yep, just a quick post to say the above is possible. It's almost done, I just figured I'd be upfront about the possibility that I might not make the end of January deadline I set myself. If I don't, then I won't miss it by much. I foolishly did what I always seem to do and commit to adding things that weren't originally planned part way through ...

Merry Christmas everyone!

Even if it's not something you celebrate, or you celebrate something else at the same time, I hope you have a good day regardless. I'm in the "Celebrate on the 25th" club instead of the "Celebrate on the 24th" club, so tomorrow is probably gonna be the first day in a while where I do absolutely no work on the game at all.

Development update #8 (About 0.21)

Whatup.

Figured I'd do an update since my goalposts for 0.21 have changed a bit, and I like being transparent. If you're active in the discord, it's possible you already know all of this, but I can't remember exactly which things I have or haven't talked about.

Firstly, the main thing. I don't think there's any way I'm actually gonn...

lmao I messed up

Turns out 0.2.02 introduced a gamebreaking bug to the clothes store section near the start of the game, in which the phone won't appear, and so you can't progress after getting a text near the end of the scene. No idea how, but it did.

It's now fixed, and the links have been updated to non clapped versions of the game (And patch...

Stormside 0.2.02 (Bugfix)

Sup,

So due to the apparently increased playerbase since the release of 0.2, many bugs were discovered. This patch fixes a bunch of them, but not all of them. I'll be fixing more in 0.21 when that comes out. Download links below, but if you already have 0.2, or 0.2.01, just download this patch, and apply it to your existing game.

Development update #7 (About whatever I call the update after 0.2)

Right, 0.2 is released, nice. So what's next?

Most likely 0.21, and it's planned to include the events of the weekend. If you've played v0.2 then you should have some idea of what those events are, but there's also one more big scene I gotta get done which hasn't been mentioned yet in game, and kinda kickstarts one of the characters storie...

Stormside 0.2

(Well it's actually 0.2.01, but ignore that)

Whatup. Finally finished v0.2

Sorry it took so long. This update is a bit more complicated than the previous updates, and it's where the story actually starts to branch a bit. As always, it's not possible to get all the scenes without using saves or rollback (Or using the console I guess)....

Stormside 0.2.01 release for students :D

Whatup. Releasing this for the students today instead of tomorrow to give you time to play it on Sunday if you want. (I probably won't release on Sundays in future.)

There's a bunch of info above the download links which detail a save issue which is unfortunately in this version, so give it a read if you plan to continue from a save.

Stormside 0.2.01 Bugfix

Lmao so despite my testing coming back without issues, it seems there is a significant problem using old saves in 0.2

For anyone interested here's what the issue is.

The whole game runs out of a script file which basically tells it what order to call scenes in. Once a scene is done, it's told to return to the script file, which will ...

Another way to get your name in the game.

Hello people :D

I put an announcement in the newly created discord server about this, but I figured I'd do it here as well.

In the soon to be released v0.2, there's a section involving a certain type of chatroom. The kind with naked ladies, I'm sure you you the type.. The chatroom has randomly generated comments...

The discord server is finally here!

Yeahhh, that's about it really. Anyone over 18 can join. Got a question you wanna ask that's the best place for it.

Patrons get relevant server roles (Which right now just changes your name colour). Come hang out :D

Behind the scenes BS #1

(DL link at the bottom if you wanna view the image properly.)

Whatup. It's the end of the month, and I've decided to release some behind the scenes bullshit. Nothing too exciting, but someone might find it interesting I guess. This time, we've got one of my chaotic mindmap thing that I use to essentially plan the game. ...

Development update #6 (About 0.2)

Sup nerds,

I figured I'd do an update since we're getting close to the end of September, and I don't like the idea of not telling you guys anything for a whole month. I'm working away at 0.2, as always. No snags so far, maybe a bit of writers block here and there, but that's easy enough to deal with. This is an interesting update to write ...

Yo so I started using twitter.

I basically just post occasional previews of the next version there (Need somewhere public facing at least to try to draw new people in.)

Stuff like polls and development updates won't be going on twitter though.

Development update #5 (About v0.2 and kinda v0.12)

Hello people,

Behold my long ramble because I'm chatty.

So 0.12 has been out for a bit, and I hope everyone had a chance to play it. (And liked it too hopefully.)

Anyway, about v0.2. I'm hard at work on it, but I want to make it a longer than normal update because it will be a public update. I've decided that the way t...

0.12 released for students.

Sup. I actually have no idea if it sent out any notifications (Please let me know), but just in case it didn't, 0.12 has been released for the student tier patrons. Link below.
