Here are remasters of some of the most seen images in Date Ariane. "After1" is my default post sex image, which reappears in Something's In The Air as a key flashback scene. It is also a modest nude pose. It is also a mirror of the original, because the background in this direction...

For the next update, I want to finish all the house pictures, and it is the garage and bedroom that are currently missing. Bedroom is the biggest of the two and I built a new set for it. I decided that I don't really a need a new garage (car park? car port?) but I re-textured the enti...

My latest picture remastering has focused on the pool and the hot tub. A fair amount involved using the old rendering files, which I could do because pool and hot tub portions of the sets are unchanged, just the stuff around the pool and hot tub has changed.
Underwater pool shots were...

Summary of changes: Added remastered backyard images and coding, including barbecue, telescope, swimming, and hot tub events.

Last week I built a set, or rather found one that came with Poser 12 and decided it fit what I was looking for, and started producing pictures that take place in the backyard. Stargazing, barbecue, and general background pics are done and will be in the next upgrade.

Yes, this years Halloween picture is the same theme as last years, but the theme of female Batman villains and the Hopepunk City girls is so good, I don't have anything better. I'm including some of last years pics, including an uncensored one of Rachel in full body makeup.

I am launching the "template" edition of Date Ariane Remastered. It is basically Date Ariane with the Ariane in Paradise/Hopepunk City interface replacing the old interface.
For now it uses the old pictures which do not quite work with the new interface. The graphics of the introducto...

Based on comments here, the purple robe top seems to be the most popular, and returning to the Ariane in Paradise hair style is a good idea that most people agreed with. It is actually very similar to the original hair, just a little rounder and fluffier on the sides. I still need ...

Now that I have basically released the game there is not much new to show you. Last minute changes came from replacing pics in scenes that used the same pics in other scenes.

The last thing I added to 0.9, which will be the version that becomes 1.0 if there are no bugs found or rewrites needed, is a couple of one picture scenes. The last paths I did were the paths where Ariane or Rachel move in with you. In version 0.86 I added two scenes where after Ariane or R...

Getting jobs is a major component of the game. The job game was inspired by The Sims, and kind of follows similar rules. You can choose a path and with learning, exercise, or just experience you can get 17 different jobs. Unlike the real world you don't have to stay long at any job. A...
2021-09-19 14:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostI've been playing the game nightly, switching between PC and Android, looking for little annoyances that need fixing, and small things that I can do to make the game better. Here is the results of that. I think I am close to finalizing a 1.0 release and making it available on October 1. Final three "Case File" walk throughs will be posted over next three days.
There are some known issues with Android apk files generated on the latest versions of Renpy. It has to do with getting the apk files ready for the Play Store, and the result is that these apk files randomly crash when played on Android 11 devices, which thanks to auto updating, is now most devices.
Luckily I have an older computer that has an older version of Renpy that doesn't hav...
