December 2024: monthly update

Last month (December 2024)

Still working on Surrendr. I didn’t get as much done as I had hoped during the holiday season.

Next month (January 2025)

Working on Surrendr remake. I’m working to get something basic and playable out.

As usual, I’m around on the Homotextual Gaming Guild Discord server, where you can message me, discuss my creative projects, and grab dev builds of my current games. If you’re a fan of gay-focused interactive fiction, come and say hello!

As always, many thanks to all my patrons for your support!

October 2024: monthly review

Last month (October 2024)

Still working on the initial framework and mechanics of Surrendr. Not much to show yet, sorry!

  • But as a little teaser, I’ve attached the default face pic for a character in the game called Jack Harnham, a.k.a. Surrendr user ldn_dominant, who will be the ‘captor’ in Surrendr. Image from GeneratedPhotos.

I also pushed a bugfix for The Zhonghua ZeroDay, taking the current version to 1.7.2.

Next month (November 2024)

Working on Surrendrremake. I’m working to get something basic and playable out.

September 2024: monthly review

Last month (September 2024)

Work has started on Surrendr remake. So far it’s been me re-familiarising myself with the development plan, and getting the skeleton of the game ready.

Next month (October 2024)

Working on Surrendrremake. Not much news I’m afraid. I’m working to get something basic and playable out.

A reminder: Patreon is mandating its creators to switch to subscription billing (instead of first-day-of-month or per-creation billing). You can read more about this change in Patreon’s news post here. From November 2024, I’ll allow my Patreon page to switch over to subscription billing along with most other creators.

August 2024: monthly review

I know August isn’t over yet, but I wanted to close this month early and start a new cycle. Also, there are some important changes to Patreon billing – please read carefully.

General changes

1. Stories are on indefinite hold. These days I mostly write for fun in the Wildwood Discord server. Monthly updates will focus on the games I’m working on.

2. Billing is paused for September 1st, and will resume in October.

3. Patreon is mandating its creators to switch to subscription billing (instead of first-day-of-month or per-creation billing) to comply with demands from Apple, to do with Patreon being allowed in the App Store. You can read more about this change in Patreon’s news post here.

  • From November 2024, I’ll allow my Patreon page to switch over to subscription billing along with most other creators.
  • This will mean that new patrons will be charged when they join and then every month on the same date in the month that they first joined. You can read more about how this works here.
  • Existing members will continue to be billed on the 1st of each month.
