Yes, the game is only available as a demo here on itch until it is completed. However there is beta testing available on Patreon. Every month on Patreon I post an update of the game for people to play. As for progress I post updates on my blogspot and tumblr as well as discord has an area for updates. This is a link to the most recent updated charts for the games progress: https://bondagebunnygames.blogspot.com/2023/08/charts.html
I would love to say I just have Rebecca left to write but, there's so much left to do.
Editing for starters cause I can't hecking spell lol
Then all the art though believe it or not that should be the fast part.
Each and every single route needs to be polished off with characters jumping, special effects animations, the list goes on.
Then bug testing as it's likely to have issues here and there along with things missed in the polish stage. I have a friend who does most of the bug testing for me while I focus on writing but there's just so much content to go over... it's been months and the only character to be fully fixed of all bugs (or at least I hecking hope so lol) is Walter. 1/11
Right now my focus is on getting all the writing done but it's a slow process and Rebecca is proving difficult to write.
Sorry that's a bit of a ramble but hopefully it covered all the inquires
That does answer all my questions so rambling is good. lol. The Patreon is above my available price range and all of the other outlets you mention require a sign-up in order to view and that's not something I want to do for a singular purpose. So I'll just pop in and see if anything's changed on here from time to time.
Blogspot requires a sign-up??? :O I didn't know that... I thought it was just a website :( that's why I made it >~< damn... In that case I'll try to post more devlogs, I just kind of feel like I don't have anything really important enough to say for a devlog so I've been avoiding them. Well regardless of my silence over the months you can be assured that Love Lock is indeed being made and it's not going to be an abandoned project. For that matter if you're also waiting on Keep or Kill or Petrify they are also in the making and not going to be abandoned. I schedule my month so that I work on Love Lock for 3 weeks (The 1st to 21st-ish) and aim to complete 10,000 words a month or enough images that it takes the same amount of time as writing 10,000 words for me, it's a personal quota I've placed on myself to give me a place to aim to. Then the last week of the month I spend working on one of the side games (Petrify, Keep or kill and previously Unknown). I hope that reassures both you and anyone else who's been worried that Love Lock won't see completion. I used to make little dev logs saying "Not abandoned" xD maybe I need to do that again since it's been a while lol.
oh I should probably also mention that I estimate Love Lock is going to be completed with around 300,000 words of text (so like two novels. 2 books of Lord of the rings is a good reference) From Google: "300,000 words is 600 pages single-spaced or 1200 pages double-spaced. Typical documents that are 300,000 words or more include full-length novels. It will take approximately 1,000 minutes to read 300,000 words."
Right now I'm at 285, 000. Each character is about 22,000 - 30,000 words long. To give an idea on what that is like: It's about 1.4 - 3.3 hours of reading. From Google: "25,000 words is 50 pages single-spaced or 100 pages double-spaced. Typical documents that are 25,000 words include include novels, novellas, and other published books. It will take approximately 83 minutes to read 25,000 words." So each character is it's own smaller novel. There are 10 Kidnap scenarios so it's basically 10 small novels. Also I know 10 x 25,000 is not 300,000 The other 50,000 words of text is the stalking aspect of the game that leads up to the kidnap.
You know what! :) I think I'm going to turn this comment into a dev log and add some more facts about the game to it. TBA~ ^.^
