Demo currently available on Steam.  And full game gets released later this month.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2287710/Where_the_Heart_is__Season_1/

Episode 25 will be the last episode / end of the story.   Remastered Season 1 = Upgrade of episodes 1-10.  Not sure yet what the episode breakout will be for season 2,3, etc.  as every episode got a lot bigger than preceding ones (e.g. episode 24 was 10 times bigger than episode 1).  Season 1 will hit Steam in November, then we prioritize episode 25 and figure out a plan for Season 2.

Yes, it's still on my patreon. And we still plan on doing the final episode.

It's not stopped. It's paused. There will be two versions.  The original which will run from episode 1-25 (episode 25 will be the final episode) and then the re-do / re-mastered version.  Because there will be so many changes, the two versions will be incompatible.  BUT, I have not given up on the original. Currently working on the re-do Season 1 (which is the re-master version of episodes 1-10). That will be complete in the next two months. Then I will go back and finish the original game / episode 25.

Nice! Thanks for the support! :)

I'm just using itch to get some information out about the game. I don't use it for revenue/ selling the game as it just isn't worthwhile at the moment.

The re-do and the original game are not compatible. We have changed so much in the re-do / upgrade that it needs to be treated as a separate game (we changed script / variables / paths / options, etc. as well as all of the art).  But when episode 25 comes out, it WILL be compatible with your previous / original game saves, so all is not lost.

You're welcome. Thanks for the interest.

I still need to figure that out.  As the game has progressed, episodes have gotten much bigger, i.e. episodes 23 and 24 were ten times the size of episodes 1 & 2.  so there will probably be 3 seasons, with each season larger than the previous one.

Yes.

All bar two = ALL minus two.  So, basically, you cannot have ALL the women.  But as of episode 24, you can make it to the end with most of the women- You will have to drop two of them because they are not compatible / won't agree to share with specific women.

Yes, 100%.  As of episode 24, you can end up with all bar two of the girls, with lots of multi-girl options.

Not on itch. All focus is on the re-do / upgrade which will release on steam soon. I have uploaded a small demo on itch, so people can check it out.

As some of you may know, WTHI is being upgraded with a complete refresh of ALL artwork, the addition of animations and a full overhaul of the script, plus many new scenes. This is in prep for a forthcoming Steam release. I have posted a demo of the upgraded game. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,

CG

We are re-doing episodes 1-10 for Steam season 1.  (episodes 1-8 completed, so just finishing off the last two).  Once that's done, we will finish episode 25 (last episode).

All will be revealed in Episode 24. :)

Thanks

Itch link here:  Where the heart is

I just released an alpha version of episode 1 from a game I'm developing.    It's called "Where the heart is".    It's free to download/play.  I'm looking for feedback (positive or negative) to help me improve the game as I create the follow-on episodes, so please let me know what you think in the comments...

You play the MC who is visiting his deceased mother's best friend and her two daughter's whom you grew up with.

You haven't seen them in several years (for reasons explained in the game).  In addition to these three ladies, there'll be plenty of other characters in play.

In addition to these three characters, there will be lots of female characters (primary characters and supporting characters) to seduce / romance / reject / be rejected by.

There will be some minor / major plot storylines with a primary focus on conversation based choices & action based choices.  Some characters will be easier/harder to "crack" and some relationships will be a slow-burn romance (or corruption) while others will be a quick passionate affair (or rejection). 

Folks - If you download/play it - Please let me know any feedback (positive or negative) and please rate it.  Thanks

Hope You enjoy...

This is a very early (unfinished release).  This is an episodic interactive (conversation / action choices) visual novel.  Looking for early feedback to help with the development.  Feel free to offer positive or negative feedback and I'll incorporate any relevant suggestions into further updates.  This is an unfinished version of Episode 1, so there may be some bugs.
