That is still the plan, yes. We're doing this as a break for ourselves, to make something crazy and fun. Once we've done that, we'll be back to work on the main stuff where our plan is to make a little more progress on the poly route first before debuting Lukas' route and developing both side by side.
Already responded to you in Discord, but definitely a false positive, Ren'Py has been known to cause these from time to time. So long as you're downloading from here or our Patreon, the download will be totally safe.
You will be able to pursue each character individually. No ETA on the next update for their route, we're working on something different at the moment to take a break from the same old and recharge our creative batteries. We'll be back to normal updates once we've done that.
Hard to say at this stage. We have some side content involving him, so if we get to that point then yes. Beyond the odd small cameo however I don't have anything planned for him in the remaining main story routes.
We're working on something a bit different at the moment to recharge our batteries and rebuild some momentum. More info about that in our latest devlog. We'll be back to regularly scheduled programming before too long.
Assuming by offer you mean what happens on Day 5, your actions there won't prevent you from pursuing any specific character or ending. It's even possible to pursue Russell without having done anything with him on Day 5.
Correct. Choose Axel or Dom on the Day 5 route select. When the next update releases you'll need to make a few choices to unlock that scene, but in the current public version it's a straight shot - you can't miss it.
At this stage there isn't a way to avoid that sequence. With the benefit of hindsight, I'd like to go back and make the content with Logan optional, but it's woven into the latter part of the story and would be a fair bit of work to remove. It might be something we invest time into at some later stage, but for now our time is better spent creating new content instead of reworking the stuff we've already done.
Roux (and Roo) do make a few appearances in the Poly route. To get the most from it, I'd recommend spending plenty of time with Russell when you have the opportunity.
You've always needed to select your route on Day 5 and the scene in question happens on Day 7, so not entirely certain how you wouldn't have known what route you were on. Since that scene released, we've made it more obvious what is going to happen though the outcome is still the same if you do it on Diego's route.
The intention with that scene was to have an outcome which you couldn't necessarily predict and for Diego's response to it to be particularly flawed and human. The protagonist hasn't strictly done anything wrong, and from that perspective the outcome seems entirely unfair. At the same time however, it isn't wrong for Diego to feel how he does and his reaction is something entirely human. It isn't a black or white situation, rather one that is messy and complicated just like real life. It was an attempt to experiment with shades of grey in our storytelling, though in hindsight, perhaps one we weren't quite ready to tackle.
As of the current version, there is only the one bad ending in Sileo and it can only be triggered in Diego's route. Doing the same thing in Tai's Route for instance will result in some dialogue changes throughout the route but won't impact the actual events that take place. We received some pretty harsh feedback when that content was released and we've stuck to fairly linear route design ever since. The Polyamorous Route and Lukas' Route will be more complex and branching but won't feature bad endings in the vein of the one in question.
Writing for visual novels is certainly a learning experience. I've learned a great deal, but can and will still learn a great deal more. If you decide to give Sileo another go, hopefully our later and more recent work is more to your liking.
That initial section was just a small preview we released ahead of time while finishing up Tai's Route. Now that Tai's Route is done, we're full steam ahead on content for the Poly Route/Axel, Dom and Russell. The current patreon update has an expanded version of Day 5 with multiple possible endings, this'll arrive in the next public update. The next Patreon update will contain several chapters in Day 6.
We've planned the route with two three-person endings in mind, however we're not outright committing to them at this stage as not to overload ourselves. Whether we include these paths will be assessed closer to the time they break off from the existing route and will be decided based on how development on that route has been going so far as well as how much interest people have for those specific possibilities.
We support fan translations, but being a free project with a very small budget with nobody on the team speaking French, it's not something we can do in house.
The choice not to hasn't been released on Itch yet, these things take time. It's available on Patreon already and will arrive here in the next public update.
It's my hope that most characters will have a scene of their own eventually. Jay already has a scene in Tai's Route, so I'm more inclined to give other characters their chance before revisiting him, but never say never.
The current patreon release/next public update adds several choices and new chapters to Day 5 which make the scene in question entirely optional and allow the day to end in several different ways. There'll be a number of optional scenes like this in the completed route, though some will impact what endings are available to you. This particular one has no impact either way.
As for how Adrian pulled that off... furry buttholes are magical portals leading to a distant and very spacious realm of possibilities!
