I don't do this full time. I can't as my support is unfortunately not enough to support me financially so this means I have a day job. Making each episode is between 3-4months.
There is a lot of work involved. I have to create each image (scene) in DAZ. Then it's rendered. Then each image (animation images too) into Photoshop and processes and saved in webp format. Then I compile it all together in RenPy and do most of the coding. The difficult or anything added to the coding is done by my Lead coder. But I put the episode together. This is basically dialogue for each image and how it will flow.
Then comes QA testing of the images and Alpha work which is proofreading/editing by my proofreader and Lead coder does his magic.
Then beta testing, if any fixes i do them and then I can release.
So yeah lots of work. But most importantly in between creating everything I have to keep myself motivated and still happy to be making a game. If I don't enjoy it all then I'll stop.

Sorry for late reply. Somehow I don't always see the question. I am working on Ep4. It will be another few months unfortunately. Keep hanging in there.

Hey there. Thank you for the kind words. Don't worry all three girls you mentioned are most important to the story and MC.

Thank you so much. Hopefully what's to come next in the storyline will have you enjoy it even more.

Only once Season 2 is complete. Only then will it be released on Steam. Until then, each Season 2 episode will be released on itch and other platforms like Patreon and Subscribestar.

I tried it and it's working.

Thank you for your comments.

Mmm, thank you for the information. You may be right. I'll see when I can do something like that for Both of my games.

Episode 2 of Season 2 is now live. Enjoy!

Hey. Yes... I threw them in to make things interesting in a Harem game. Don't worry MC will have loads of "love interests"

Will do thx.

Yes, for sure.

If Android apk fixes their side I will do my side. Standard apk size in forced by Android is 2gb. The game is more. You will have to download the PC version onto your phone, then play / install it via JoiPlay app.

Hey, the patch is made for those who enjoy that type of relationship. The story as I sell it (non patch) is very similar to patched and vice versa. Both stories are same with slight variations. Up to you which or how you want relationships enjoyed, but they do not alter the story.

Hey. Im working on it about all i can say now. No ETA yet.

Thank you so much for your information. Helps a lot.

Hi all.

I am inquiring regarding possible turning my hobby into a small business. I have been informed it is better for taxation in my local country. As I am full time employed, I make my Visual Novel games in my spare time and have made them available on various online web-stores such as itch, subscribestar , patreon and even on Steam. 

My question is simple. Should I if/when i have registered as a small business in my local country, then upload a new W-BEN8 form to each online web-store site that I am now a small business even if it's just registered in my local country? 
What are the ramifications should I do this? Any new forms i have to file each year or taxes I have to pay to the online web-stores?
Lastly do i have to do this on Payoneer side also? Inform them I have a small business now or can I keep everything overseas related still as an individual and just in my local country as a small business?

I know it's not an easy question.

Duuuude. Thank you for playing and "Message of yours is cool" as Yoda would say.
As i have posted on my patreon page, Yes MC will return to Earth. Maybe sooner than we all think. Episode 2 will open the story and MC's thoughts a bit more. A while back before i completed Season 1 or episode 9 of Season 1 , I showed an image of Maggie standing at Anne's house asking MC to go with her. I said that is the moment AE actually starts. Season 1 was more a big ass Prologue than a season if you will. It's an introduction of sorts. Season 2 is the meat and balls and I thinks its going to feel too fast once its done. Almost like Season 1 and Season 3 felt in RTP.
You want to know something else. I have already started working on my next game's story, once AE is complete. MAN this story is even "better" dare i say. But that is still years away. For now, I've got you all, dont' worry. MC's horse penis isnt the way forward and he will be on Earth again. AE story is complete, written out over 2yrs ago. I am now just tweaking it.

Hi all. I post this here to hopefully put many players' minds at ease.

No idea to be honest. Its on my google drive so pretty legit.

Hey. Did you read how to transfer the save files over on the itch season 2 page?
You need a save file that is AFTER the Daniella and MC night club scene. Prefereably one where MC drops her off at home. Any playthrough save after that point will work in S2. Once you have copied over the save folder with your saves as mentioned above, then use the "Continue to load" button at main menu of Season 2 game. This will ask you if you want to see the girls you were close with in Season 1 and then start Season 2.

Season 2, steam edition will only be available once the whole season 2 is completed. For those players who would like to not wait until then, they can purchase each episode update on itch or subscribestar or my patron page.

And massive thank you for buying it on Steam.

NOTICE: Hi all. Please extract the attached file to your S1 v1.9.0 game folder. This does a fix for the save folder where saves for v1.9.0 are visible in v2.1.1 as they were not visible.

ae-v1.9.0_savefix

I have also added it to the download page for futurre use.

MrK

Hey. Thank you for the kind words. When you play s2e1, which I will release soon on itch, then your questions will be answered. I am sorry but I think its best everyone discovers it for themselves. So please permit me to not say now, but i think you'll be pleased. LOL I hope.

Okay v1.9.0 is out. This is the final episode for Season 1.

Please take note of the following:
At the end of each playthrough you will get a choice to "export" the choice/path you are on. This is an one at a time thing. You can do it many times but will have to play each choice/path up till this "export" option at the end of Season 1. The best way forward is to keep your Season 1 AE game and wait till Season 2, episode 1 starts. In s2e1. you will have an option called "Continue from Season 1" slider button which you choose, and it will pick up the exported option you created in Season 1. Play this exported option till s2e1 actually starts then save it to a save location and name it accordingly.

Once that is done, open v1.9.0 (season 1) again, choose a different playthrough and do the export part. Open season 2 game and do the import, play a bit and save. repeat to transfer (export) multiple playthroughs. Please take note, your actual game/save folder files WILL NOT WORK by copying and loading in Season 2. ONLY the export option will transfer your playthrough across.

Erm... Retrieving the Past is complete. Actually it's been completed for 3 yrs now so NO, nothing will be added and there is no NTR in the game.

Fairy and the mo...landlady, yes please.

Awesome. I'll keep you guys in the loop and thank you so much.

Really enjoy this game myself. Good work dev.

Hey Micheal. I know you have RTP curator copies and if I recall you gave a great RTP review. So don't worry AE Season 1 will come to Steam this year. I hope you will then also review and advertise it  AE as you have done for RTP. So if you can now already spread the word that AE will be on steam this year and as soon as the Wishlist is done ask player to add to their Wishlists.
Thx Dude.

Hey Ralynn, I hope you enjoy it and AE gives you enough enjoyment to return for upcoming episodes.

Hey, thank you for your message and getting it on steam. AE will be on steam but later in the year only. It will be Season 1 which consists of 9 Episodes. I'm currently working on EP9. Then later on Steam I'll add Season 2 as a DLC. But for now AE is only available here, Subscribestar, Patreon.

Absolutely didn't take your questions/responses as an attack. No i love having actual adult conversations about AE and AVN's with anyone who play AE. So please don't feel I'm offended. I've asked you how you feel about AE and then some and you've given me some great insight.
I'll be honest with you all, I've played AVN's where I felt that AE is way better in so many departments yet these AVN's seems to have way more support than AE. So i'm just at a loss as to why AE support after 2yrs isn't that high. I have been doing this for 5yrs now and realistically should have way more followers I believe. Obviously I'm wrong. Why I ask players what they like, don't like so I can improve without sacrificing my standards.

Hey Mad....

Those scenes were NEVER ever there to cuck or piss off people. They were only there to serve one purpose. After many players not liking it i did add the option to see it or not. Still this wasn't enough for many players as the event still happens if MC watches or not. I am not changing this as I wanted players to realise that these women have /had their own lives. Anne's lonely and Samara is in a relationship only out of desperation because of her situation/financial state. The idea was and still is to have you the player, play as MC and win these women over forever into your harem or circle. I think MC does this as you said, without being a chad or alpha male prick.
I am truly happy you stuck around and played up till v1.8.0 and enjoying the "story" more than the side events. Believe me when i say the story will  really expand from v2.1.0  (Season 2 E 1)... For now v.1.9.0 will end with a bit of surprise.
Finally AE is NOT a NTR, cuck game. Neither is it a Alpha male dominate all women game. It's simply a game with character growth and I hope great story.

WOW, thank you for the encouragement and happy you were proven wrong lol.
Tell me what made you think the MC is being cucked? I'm genuinely asking as I never wrote him to be anything but an Alpha male later on in the game. Trust me he's as alpha as Jensen in RTP is.

Ok v1.8.0 is out.

Thank you for playing and kind words.
