Status Update #69

Hey, everyone! Got a quick but exciting status report for you.

I've been holding off on writing this post until I could say the following with full confidence: The Morning After Update will go into early access within the next 48 hours.

The big stuff is all done, and now I just need to do some final passes to cross some smaller, nit picky stuff off my list before finally putting it in the hands of Junior, Senior, & Graduate patrons. A week later I'll share it with Sophomores, and three weeks after that will be the free public release.

I would suggest expecting it at like hour 47 minute 59, just based on precedent, but I'll try and get it out earlier if I can 🙂

Before I get back to wrapping this up, let's talk cover boys! This is a non-game CG I made to test out a few things like the updated Riley & Matt models plus some effects like sweat and steam. I shared it on Bluesky and thought you all might enjoy it as well.

It brought to mind a question I'll pose to all of you. I have plans for some guys to pair off romantically if Connor doesn't pursue them in the game. I'm curious to know if there are any couples you could see happening based on their personalities, interactions, or even just because they'd look hot together? Who knows, if the pair intrigues me, I might make it happen!

I'll be back again soon 🙂

Status Update #69

There will definitely be some drama surrounding Fane, and since Matt already knows him, it seems likely Matt might end up involved!

Danny Nym

I just realized an interesting and potentially dramatic idea could be that Matt gets with Connor’s brother, Fayne! Either in a hookup or a relationship.

DC Burns

Is it today or tomorrow that it’s supposed to come out?

Hunter Poe

I'm so very excited thank you asalways for all of your hard (and soft) work on this project I am desperate for that new content

Joshu

Considering side characters, starting with Dorm Wilde boys: Xavier: I can’t see him meshing well with anyone, outside of a quick efficient hookup. Maybe if he learns to loosen up, hell find someone? Wes: Maybe Isaiah, at least as friends with benefits or something, considering they had similar upbringings. Or Leo, if Flynn Ryder from Tangled is still his dream man. Jordi: I could for sure see him getting around, but also getting in a relationship. Maybe Isaiah, since they’re both pretty active. Him and Will could be hot, but I don’t know how they’d meet. Quinn: I have a hard time reading him. Asher could be interesting, since they’re both pretty quiet. Or since he’s more visual, maybe hooking up with Marco. Blaze: since he’s the dorm stoner I feel like Alex & Marco would hit him up for weed. Oh I forgot: Will and Tomas could maybe get it on too. At this point, I don’t really see Tomas as being as eager to sleep with his students as Will, save if Connor or Matt charms him

I'm so excited for the next chapter and where the story goes

Carl Allen

I second Riley and Evan

Paul Fernandes-Gibson

I feel a 'sitting' (modelling) scene happening... :-)

Andre'

Oh Danny that's 1) Fantastic news, 2) Really cool that you did that script and 3)I'm so grateful as I have a shit ton of saves with the various guys waiting for an advancement in their story arcs.

Andre'

I'll say definitively that Isaiah will not end up with David. Gabriel, though? Hmm... I said in another comment as well, but when it comes to Leo, I think it would be a little unfair to the player to not let them romance Leo because he's not into dating... and then tease them by having Leo get with someone else. But if the player doesn't really interact with Leo, maybe I'll put something like that into play. As for Dominic—there's an upcoming plot point for him that happens regardless if he's hanging out with Connor. I don't know yet how it'll go if Connor isn't involved—I'll discover that alongside all of you!

Danny Nym

I think as the game progresses and we learn more about each guy & see them interact with each other, some natural pairings may become no-brainers. I'll be figuring that out alongside all of you!

Danny Nym

In this update Evan has a semi-hidden way to "bump into" someone he otherwise wouldn't meet. I haven't decided yet if it'll lead to anything, but I think it could be fun to explore...

Danny Nym

Asher and Owen is an intriguing idea. Asher could definitely vibe with someone like Owen who has a sex-focus but is more on the same wavelength when it comes to who he sleeps with. Regarding Matt & Marco—there may or may not be a plot point involving them which is semi-hidden behind some specific choices... 😉

Danny Nym

Leo and Owen is a really interesting idea that I hadn't considered! My instinct is to not give Leo a romance because it'd be kind of unfair to not let the player romance Leo and then taunt them by having Leo get with another guy. But maybe if the player rarely if ever interacts with Leo during a playthrough, it wouldn't be seen as a slight to give him one...

Danny Nym

I really like writing Isaiah, and he's actually one of three characters who I already plan to have a non-Connor romance. I think a lot of us can relate to his particular storyline and want to see the best for him, even if it doesn't involve sex or romance on the player's part 🙂 Guys like Leo will definitely have hookups going on off-screen. I do think it's a fun idea to have Connor keep catching him in the act—even if not Leo, Connor unexpectedly stumbling onto guys naked or hooking up is absolutely guaranteed to happen the entire game!

Danny Nym

There's a fun Jordi interaction in this update 🙂 I made an effort to keep saves intact as much as I could. What usually breaks them is changes to variables, so even though I needed to add/change a lot of variables from the game up to this point, I touched the existing content very little. Instead I have a behind-the-scenes transition script placed after the end of the previous content. The game goes through this script before loading the new content. This way I could make all those adjustments without affecting the saves. I hope. We'll see 😉

Danny Nym

I can easily see Marco and Riley getting together, given how flustered Riley gets around him for being so overt—and how you've already said their trajectories mirror one another in opposite ways in terms of Marco opening up to show his emotional side and Riley his sexual side. I could also see any number of characters visiting MC in the dorms and Evan being enamored with whoever it is if they bump into one another.

Taken For Pomegranted

Matt and Owen / Owen and Marco / Riley and Evan / Marco and Matt... These make intresting and Romantic couple options. Griffin and Owen also looks interesting couple

Chetan

Can't waittttt!

Sprinklers

This is awesome!

Ryostorm

Alex: i could see him becoming a third for NC-17 and Mafia, as well as hooking up with others like Jordi or Leo throughout the game. Asher: Owen and Asher could be interesting, since Asher mentions he’s into meditating, and they both have alternative approaches to sex. Maybe he gets back with his ex, but that might be a bad thing. Isaiah: maybe with Riley, I could see him being tender with Isaiah. Griffin could be interesting as well since they meet at the club, and project confident personas. I almost want to say Owen, too. Julien: maybe with Dominic or Evan, and Owen, since they always seem together (also a threeway with those two could be hot). I could maybe see him going for a freshman like Wes or someone who doesn't go to to 21CA, so maybe David/Gabriel. Marco: maybe Matt, that could add some DRAMA, even if they just hook up once. Of course, he may also sleep around. Riley: I don't know if I could see him pursuing any of the freshmen unless they expressed interest first. Could be fun if he has a hook up with Leo. Or Connor walks in on him him getting it on with Burly Guy and Buff Guy. Isaiah and he could maybe work. Matt: I get the feeling he would continue sleeping around. Maybe try to pursue things with Tomas, continue hooking up with Griffin.

DC Burns

I would love Leo and Owen first because i find them so hot and then because their personalities are like opposites but also similar? Like Leo is a sex machine and Owen is almost a sex therapist, both being so drawn into these topics but with differents points of view

Irving Ibarra

I think it could be a very funny running gag if we see Leo just fucking his way the game's cast, almost in the periphery. Walk into the bathroom at the wrong time? Leo and Marco going at it. What's behind the tree in the park? Leo and Kash hooking up. What's happening in that parked car? Leo and Blaze practicing stick shift. Maybe the scenarios/hook-up partners get increasingly outlandish as the game goes on? I'd also love to see Isaiah get some additional love if he's not romanced. He doesn't always get the love from the patron voters but he's so hot and such a great character

Omnia

Very exciting news Danny! My poor Connor is so full of Jordi! lol! (Jordi's walking a funny too mind you). Question: when the update lands, can we continue from our previous saves or is it gonna crash the game? *hugs*

Andre'

So excited for the update and will be waiting patiently to play. Here are some of my couple ideas: Asher/Griffin (Griffin tells MC how great of a guy Asher is at the club... maybe the admiration could be something more?) Evan/Owen (Owen was protective of Evan and helped carry him up the stairs after the party) Isaiah/David or Gabriel (This is more enemies to lovers; or falling for my enemy's friend trope) Owen/Julian (that's a maybe since they are already close and are friends; but i don't know if Julian would be ready for a relationship by end of game based off the party lol) Marco/Riley (Marco and Riley are kind of the opposite of each other; but complement each other) Matt/Leo or Griffin (Idk if this would work since Leo is a hookup-only option to MC, but there is that historical joke, "and they were roommates."... He and Griffin have history, so that also works. Also hard to pair Matt off with a lot of the guys since he's a year older so probably won't interact with the Dorm Wilde guys a lot besides w/ Connor). For Dominic, I feel he would stay straight if the MC doesn't pursue with him for the two months of the game, so I can't see pairing him off, but I could be wrong. I

Jeffrey C

I mean Leo and Matt might be interesting since they live together or like Owen and Julian but that’s just biased off how often they’re likely together. I don’t know much for personality
