Big news—the New You Update is now in Early Access for Sophomore, Junior, Senior, and Graduate patrons!
If you're a patron at one of those levels—or would like to become one—head over to this post for the download links and more details on the update.
This Early Access release is coming simultaneously today for all qualifying patrons, a slight deviation from the normal schedule to make up for delays. The free, public release is coming in three weeks on 8 December!
A new Connor, polished new & updated art, and a super hot new game feature! You can expect:

Can I continue the story after Matt's apartment, the frat party, or the club?
Not yet! This is not a story update but rather an interstitial update that adds 300+ revised CGs and the new Grind'm feature.
When will I be able to continue the story?
The next game update, the Morning After Update, was worked on in tandem with the New You Update, but there's much more work needed before it's ready to release. The bimonthly game status updates here on Patreon will give progress reports on how the Morning After Update is proceeding.
Why has Connor been changed?
The original Connor model was the first character I made for the game before I really knew what I was doing. Ultimately this led to a few problems: Connor wasn't matching the quality of characters added later, and there were many issues with posing him so he looked good. New Connor was designed with feedback from Patreon patrons to match the feel of original Connor while also being a hotter version of himself that's worthy to headline a game.
Why was Grind'm added to the game?
Story updates involve a lot of complexity and can take awhile to create. To tide us over until the story from the main game continues, smaller updates will add fantasy hookups to unlock and play—something sexy to get us salivating for more!
Why is Jordi the first featured guy?
The guys featured in the Grind'm hookups are chosen by Graduate Patreon patrons via three rounds of voting. The majority of the male supporting characters are options and may get a hookup in the future. The next Grind'm guy was voted to be Trevor, NC17's twin brother, and you'll be able to play that scenario in the update following the Morning After Update.
Does a Grind'm hookup affect the story?
Nope! These are purely fantasy scenarios where a future, sexually experienced Connor can hit up guys in or around 21CA to have some hot fun. You can certainly imagine these are "canon" scenarios that take place after the story of the game, though!
What are Grind'm hookups like to play?
If you've had a sexual encounter with Griffin while playing the game, the flow of a full hookup is similar. There is a story introduction, foreplay, and then you'll get to choose a position. A little later you'll get a choice to continue with the same position or change things up. There are 20 different climax CGs to find via the variable paths that represent a variety of different ways to reach an explosive finale!
How long is the Grind'm hookup?
A playthrough will take around a half an hour depending on if you read the dialogue/inner monologue. In my opinion, the perfect length of time to relax and have some special alone time 😉
Whether you're playing now or when the free release comes out, I hope you have fun with the new feature and re-experiencing the game through New Connor's eyes!
