APM v0.7.1 Sneak Peek #8

In the next update we'll see a lunch date between Hank and his favorite employee. This will be the last sneak peek before the release.

Tuesday Outfit

The artist is working on the last scene of the upcoming update, so once he’s done he’ll shift gears to Tuesday, and I’ll need to provide him Anna’s outfit. This is where I’ll take your input in the poll question.

On Tuesday, Anna makes a conscious decision to wear a more provocative outfit to work, no matter what version of Anna...

APM v0.7.1 Sneak Peek #7

Here's something a bit different that I'm going to do, since new images aren't ready to share just yet. Typically, sneak peeks are images only, but why not share a sneak peek of text? So, below I'm posting the script associated with the attached image from Monday morning. This is a glimpse into Anna's mindset at the time, no matter what decision...

Status Update

I wanted to give you an update now that we’re through April. It was a productive month after a spotty March. I anticipate May will be another productive month as I don’t have much in the way other than usual job/family duties. I don’t have a release date, but progress-wise we’re about 80% through overall. The first part of the update...

Status update

Hello Patrons,

I've been continuing to work consistently on APM this month. The artist is currently working on the largest scene of the update, which will include animations. There'll be one more scene to render after that. I still have a good amount to write and program, so the update isn't going to be ready this month. It's moving al...

Poll: Jake

We haven't seen Jake since Friday, but he's back in the mix in the next update. What are your hopes for him?

APM v0.7.1 Sneak Peek #6

We haven't seen Jake since Friday, but he's back in the mix in the next update. I'm posting a poll in a separate post - I'm interested to learn your hopes for Jake.

APM v0.7.1 Sneak Peek #5

Good news for David: They’re back together in the same bed. Bad news: Things are still frosty between them.

Despite the frosty marriage, Anna can’t help but heat up while she texts with another man…

The Cure For Madness

Hello everyone,

I'm not someone who plans to promote other stories/developers, but I want to pass along an interactive visual novel by Grumpy Granny that I enjoy and think you may enjoy. Grumpy Granny helped me get APM off the ground, and the phone interface I'm using in APM comes from this story.

As for the story, The Cure For Madn...

APM v0.7.1 Sneak Peek #4

Chris wants to provide Anna some help in the kitchen…

Texting app

Just thought I'd pass along some good news. I implemented a new phone app provided by a fellow developer that's more realistic and easier to use. Programming with the old one was very time consuming, but this new app makes texting sooo much easier! Yesterday I went back and reprogrammed all the texting scenes with the new interface. Those scenes...

Quick update

Hello everyone,

Just a quick update that I’m alive and well. Production has been slow lately because March is a busy month in my life and I’ve been away from my computer for the past week, but I’m going to be full steam ahead for the remainder of March and all of April. I don’t have a time frame for next update, but I’d say weâ...

Special thanks to Gold Patrons!

Hello Gold Patrons,

I want to give a special thanks to you for your great support.  I hope to do more in the future to make you feel like you're treated well for being my top supporters.  Maybe I can have you pick some outfits or hairstyles for Anna.  Monday wouldn't be the right day to offer that, because I already have Ann...

Update 0.7.0 debrief

Hello Patrons,

Now that the update has been released to everyone, I'd like to take the opportunity to give some thoughts on it before I go full gear into the next update.

As I've said before, this update felt like a necessary bridge to set up the rest of Part 3.  Part 2 ended with the "blowup"... the story needed to decompress b...

Quick update

Hey everyone,

Just a quick update that I’ve been working hard at trying to get Sunday out to you. I’m hoping by end of month, but it just depends on how much free time I have. I’ll be able to do a lot this coming weekend for sure. I’d probably say at this point I have 70% of the writing/programming done and 80% of the rendering....

Favorite scenario to navigate Part 3 with

Now that you have a good idea of how your choices in Parts 1 & 2 impact David & Anna, what scenario are you most interested in playing?

(NOTE - These choices aren't exact paths in the story. I'd like to explore all of these scenarios, but they aren't standalone paths.)

APM Part 3 Sneak Peek #12

The confrontation...

As for an update, I still hope to have Part B of the current update out this month.  Two scenes left to render and some programming to do, and then we'll be in a good spot.  I'm going to be quiet during this time so that I can use my free time on finishing the Sunday update.

Thanks all

For people who reject Chris, this will be a shorter update for you...

APM Part 3 Sneak Peek #11

As you probably figured, the third person with Anna and Kendra at the pool is none other than Marvin.  Surely, the perverted old man is up to no good...

Before you ask, yes this is Part B of the current update, and I hope to release it in January.  It will conclude the weekend.
