v0.8 preview

It's been a while since the last preview, and I wanted to share this WIP of an image that will appear in 0.8. What do you think about her new loose hairstyle, for when she is not wearing a braid? 2022-11-19 16:50:45 +0000 UTC View Post

I've finally fixed it. It has taken most of the day (sorry about the...

0.7B has been released with bugs

On Wednesday morning, some players have reported to me some bugs (in Megan's scene if you are not on Martha's path). That evening, I did a recompile and re-uploaded the files. 

Today I h...

v.0.8 (and more) Progress report

What have I been doing this week, since I released 0.7B, other than fighting with dforce and measuring characters? 

I have fully defined v.0.8. It's going to have 7-9 scenes (depending o...

How tall are the characters? (I)

I've always been curious to know the actual height of the characters. We always see them in relative heights to each other, but I never knew how to measure them, it could be that they are all in th...

Creative process (I)-Sometimes I hate dforce!

I've decided to write a series of posts about the creative process of a visual novel, since some of you have asked me some questions about it. When unusual or funny things happen to me, I'll write ...

Change in Tiers wording

Good morning,

Today there has been an event of which I am not proud. Due to the way the Tiers were structured and the timeframes in which the game was available for each one, there has been a...

v.0.7B release schedule

I lied to you again, but this time I am sorry (at least in part). Even Norah is mad at me.

I told you that I would try to publish the game this week, but it has been impossible. The last 36 r...

Family Tree updated

After the events in v.0.7A I've updated the Family Tree to reflect Eva's and Amanda's positions relative to everyone. 

0.7B Progress report and Preview

I just remembered that I haven't done the progress post for 0.7B yet. That's because it's been an update where the planning has repeatedly gone into the trash because I didn't like how some of the ...

Who are those girls?

Meet two of the new students arriving in 0.8 (or 0.9 if something goes wrong).

Back in the day (IV)

One year ago, on October 26th, 2021, I turned 49 years old. That day I decided to start writing the story that would become My Dorm. 

One year later, I can't be more satisfied that I mad...

Back in the day (III)

I had to post this image on one of the sites where My Dorm is published to defend myself against an accusation, which I believe to be false, that all the girls are basically identical. At the time,...

v.0.7B Hot preview

I've finally made up for the time I lost when I screwed up with Megan's scene. I'm still behind on the rest of the scenes because of that, but the plan is still to post 0.7B in the first week of No...

Murphy's Law

You know that when something can go wrong, it's going to go wrong, right?

This time it has happened to My Dorm. I had designed a scene that, in my mind, looked like it was going to be sexy. I...

Who's that girl?

Hello once again,

While I'm working on 0.7B, I'm also working on future updates (especially when I need a break from writing) and I've finally started redesigning the first batch of students....
