Deadline for the rest in this segment: Mouse and Carrington ??? December.
Alright, tomorrow I’ll start working on the improvements, starting with fixing a few of the bugs that I should’ve already fixed for the explicit Stillwater stuff. I’ll make a mini update for them as soon as I get them fixed, might not mention it for the more minor things(just upload the fixes). Then, once it’s bug-free, I’ll move to the actual improvements. If it goes well, that’s tomorrow too.

Made minor fixes to the explicit stuff, plus added a shortcut in the skip options to the charity gala, and thus one night stands. No skipping straight to the explicit part, since they’re too related to what happens before them.
Also, started work on the improvements. If I can get them done in two weeks, great. If not, it’ll take however long it’ll take. If you have suggestions for the Stillwater stuff(whether romance or explicit), there’s still time to make them. Use the google docs or post here, whichever you like. And if you didn’t like either, give feedback as to why, so I can make it better for you.
As usual, I’ll be away from home for the latter half of December at least. Likely will be able to work decently during that time, but no posting on the forums. Thus, would love to get the improvements out before my “break”.

Work/research continues. Lots to research in order to make the gay version better.

Deadline for the rest in this segment: Mouse and Carrington ??? December(probably next year since I’ll be on break from mid December to early January).
Work progressing decently.
Also, my schedule for my Christmas break is a bit clearer. Probably 3 weeks or so, not entirely sure on the days yet. As I said earlier, should be able to work on Cyberpolice during at least part of that time.

Almost ready with most of the stuff. Then only polishing left. This time there shouldn’t be as many mistakes with the code, since it’s far simpler for all the added stuff, which means less likely to result in wrong words being replaced, etc.

It’s taken me a long while to play up to the most up-to-date content, but that was a choice I made on my own terms.
In doing that, it gave me time to appreciate the little changes from earlier in the text, as well as the newer stuff I hadn’t seen yet–relatedly, I am very proud of Bravo Squad, and hopeful we’ll get a more personalized breakdown post-capture of Cyber Richard, even if it is just a small mention of commendation for them while my MC operated as their eye in the sky. 
The interpersonal bits before Gray Scorpion were also interesting. Seeing that glimpse into Doctor Amrbose’s motives for heading the research and development of Designer Soldiers/Humans is pretty relatable, even with the small moral and philosophical questions it brings up. Sci-fi this setting is, but it’s little moments like this that really remind us how human people are no matter the “era” or setting. I was also amused he almost seemed to be testing the thus far friendship between my MC and his favorite, “flawed” son, Stillwater. All this before the charity gala was a thing to worry about.
I also have to say… Given a choice, no matter how it would be perceived, I would love nothing more than to stick that jerk Blake Sullivan in a black box for the remainder of the investigation. Disrespecting the media blackout is one thing; choosing to fabricate a story with edited footage putting words, and the like in the mouths of those who said no such thing, crosses the line of moral journalism into exactly the sort of exploitative money grubbing greed that will backfire sooner than later. It’ll serve her right when it does. 
All in all, I’m looking forward to when the narrative gaps close up, and the rougher scenes are buffed out. (Richard’s interrogation was more than a little buggy, but I think you already knew that.)

Heh, thanks! I’ll make a note for some more additional details(something very small) to the Bravo Squad stuff right after the operation. There’ll be another mini scene later on, and hopefully some other stuff too in the finales(provided I manage to include them in the way I want), but we’ll see how those pan out later.
Who knows what kinds of things her further appearances in the story bring? Probably not exactly what you mentioned, but certainly some interactions between the two of you.
I have plans, as usual. But just like usual, they rarely turn out exactly the way I want. 
So am I. What I’ve learned so far is that at least half of the time when I do something “ambitious” or complex for a scene, it tends to have problems(either code or content or both). Will probably be far fewer of them in the future, since they also take a lot more time to make than a regular “prose” version would. (although there’s at least one really complex part, but fortunately I already made it years ago, since originally it was meant to be near the start of the game, but now I’m putting it in one of the sub-plot finales).
Fortunately we’ll be tackling all of that as soon as the one night stands are done, so won’t be long for that. The plan is to include a bit of improvements with each update with new content, so I make it better little by little. That way I won’t get crushed by the weight of editing it all in one go, and I can take stuff into account much better as I refamiliarize myself with all the stuff I’ve set up and possibly forgotten.

Done, now to polish. As before, if I get it ready before Saturday, release is still on Saturday.

Went fine today.
In that case I better start working on the game for real next year. Progress has certainly been too slow for too long.
Also, if you ever run into a scene where you CAN’T play a naive rookie, it’d help if you told me about it. (like, none of the choices seem right)
Same goes for any other playstyles too. At worst, there should always be an option you can choose that feels “tolerable” for your character.

Deadline for current update: Improvements on the Stillwater segment - Saturday or Sunday
Deadline for the rest in this segment: Mouse and Carrington ??? December/January.
Done with the polishing. However, I’m not entirely satisfied with a few relatively minor parts, so it might take until Sunday to be ready. Which is tolerable, if not great. We’ll see if I get them “double-done” by Saturday.
Also, I was thinking, in the unlikely case I get Mouse/Carrington segment’s romantic/gala parts done I might release them before my December break, so not in a whole package with the “later” parts.
