Before I get to my usual preamble, I wanted to say a few words.
The Allure of Wanton Cove has been a labor of love for about four years now, and while it began with humble beginnings, it quickly took on a life of it's own. Even once we reached version 1.0 and the game was complete, all of you asked for more, and because of that I continued to pour my heart into the...

Those of you who have been with us for a while know what to do already, but I'll take a moment to explain things for the rest of you.
What we do each week is we take a vote on what I will be focusing the bulk of my attention on the following week. At the end of each week, I take the top item and that becomes my new work item. All other votes are c...
2019-01-11 21:14:01 +0000 UTC View PostLets start with the progress report, then move in to the news:
Progress report:
Between submissions and my own work, we dropped around 15k words of content into Inheritance today. In total, that should put us a bit over 25k words of new content toward the next build as of right now.
Additionally, I have five small scenes I hope to get into the game stil...
2019-01-11 20:46:14 +0000 UTC View PostBeen working on this all day today. Got just over 12 hours of work into the game today, even if I don't have as much to show for it as I would like.
Where I'm sitting with today's work:
-Finished writing the big scene I'd been working on this week. Really happy with the end result. Still need to code it and drop it into the game though. I figure it will take bet...
Today I bring to you another story from LFN Park. This one takes place parallel to the Bubbles/Mitsuko story that has begun to unfold over the last couple of builds.
POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

This is going to be a little short just because it's late and it's been a long day.
Since I haven't said much the last couple of days, I'll just recap the week so far.
*I've got the first 2/3 of a fairly substantial sized scene written involving Anna and eve, though the focus is primarily on Anna for this one. It's the new Sponsored scene for the month, and it's tur...
2019-01-10 05:30:32 +0000 UTC View PostNot sure what's going on, or if this is just isolated to me, but it seems that I can't get into our Discord at the moment (Connecting screen continues forever.) For the team members I was planning to check in with this morning, I haven't forgotten about you, I just can't get over there for some reason.
Is anyone else having trouble with Discord this morning? I sent their help...
Another week, another weekly recap. Honestly, I spent the last two days thinking about how to handle the weekly story style recap for Wanton Cove. I think I came up with something you will all enjoy.

2019-01-06 00:24:09 +0000 UTC View PostNow, this should have been a public release week, but things just didn't work out that way. In the last, we've always had a week of Wanton Cove mixed into the month, and this last month that didn't happen. This week however WAS a Wanton Cove week, and since it's the end of the week, I have a new TEST build for you fine people. I intend to give us a week to find any potential p...
2019-01-05 04:55:14 +0000 UTC View PostGot quite a bit going on right now. Lets see about getting all of you fine people up to speed on the latest:
Since this is a Wanton Cove week, I'll start there:
So far this week, we've got three significant pieces of content into the game, about 9k words of content between them. Introduced a new horror to the setting today with a new scene that can build b...
We have opened up one of the work areas on Discord to $20 and up Patrons. The idea is to give people who are interested a chance to see how we do things behind the scenes, and offer a chance to talk directly with some of the authors involved with the project. I went ahead and posted the room rules below.
The Writer's Room is a place where some of our writers share e...
2019-01-01 17:44:07 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, I had hoped to have this up last night (Sorry about that) and since there were a few quirks remaining to run down I wanted to make sure I had most everything that had been reported resolved before pushing out a new test build.
Mostly the fixes involved some issues related to Eve's new sex content, but there was one small error reported in one of Mitsuko's new scenes and a few sp...
In recent weeks, we've been doing an in-character weekly recap any time I work on one of my own projects. The last three that have been done using Anna and/or Eve. This week I thought it would be fun to introduce the new girl that was added in A23.
Today, I get to introduce Misaki, . . . . . and hopefully she will remain on her best behavior, . . . .

2018-12-31 04:49:47 +0000 UTC View PostGot a new test build for all of you. Decent bit of content for the week, much of it for Mitsuko.
I have a couple of things that I didn't get around to finishing that I'll be wrapping up the next time we work on the game, plus another short story that will be added to the Theater Mode at that same time.
In the meantime, this build fixes the broken sex scenes for...
I had an idea for a new pledge reward that I wanted to run past everyone. Kind of get the pulse of the community before I actually add it just in case someone brings up something we haven't thought of yet.
At present, we've only got a couple of people at the $20 pledge level. And quite honestly, that pledge level really doesn't offer much at this time. I want ...

2018-12-29 19:04:38 +0000 UTC View PostSo, today was one of those days where a lot got done, but I really don't have a lot to show for it.
In A23, we had found an issue where on rare occasion a location was displaying a blank spot instead of an event. We've traced the issue to the source, it's the new Eve sex content. At present, I'm just waiting on our coders to tell me if my "fix" is going to work or not before m...
2018-12-29 05:35:26 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a pretty amazing week so far. Even with a couple of days focused on family, we've still managed to make some pretty impressive progress.
As of right now we've got about 11k words of new content into the game, including SEVEN new interactive scenes for Mitsuko, new sexy times from the sleep function for her, as well as two songs so she can take part with the kara...

2018-12-25 19:27:18 +0000 UTC View PostLooks like Inheritance is leading in the polls this weekend, and since I've received several submission scenes for the game already I decided to call the winner and get to work.
Now, I'm still a bit sick, so I'm not as hard to work as I would usually be, but I still managed to make some good progress today.
Of the four submitted scenes I received in the last few days, I got one into...
2018-12-24 03:34:55 +0000 UTC View PostWe skipped our weekly poll last week because I had a mountain of content waiting to be added to Inheritance, and I wanted to tie up what loose ends that I could. So instead of running out usual poll, I just cashed out my Writer's Choice votes and worked on that instead
Those of you who have been with us for a while know what to do already, but I'll take...
2018-12-23 04:11:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe last three weeks, I've been doing a weekly recap in-character with someone related to the setting I had been working on. This week was spent working on rfpnj's Therapist, and since the characters from that setting don't belong to me, I don't feel comfortable trying to do an "In-character" recap.
Instead, I'm just going to lay it out like I usually do.
