Digital illustration of three young adults standing together against a dark, bokeh-style background of colorful blurred lights. At the top, glowing yellow text reads "Happy New Year 2026!". On the left, a man in a grey and white shirt rests his hand on the arm of a man in the center wearing a plain white T-shirt. On the right, a woman with auburn hair in a grey tank top also holds the center man's arm. All three are smiling or looking toward each other in a lovingly, celebratory manner.

Hopefully everybody is having a lovely start to 2026!

Here's Nelson with his love interests Leo and Aubrey from the upcoming Intimate Discoveries: Awakening. Renders are around 25% done, story draft over 70% and overall almost 50%.

Remember to love!

A nighttime digital render of a peaceful park surrounded by apartment buildings. The park features illuminated pathways, benches, a central stone fountain, and neatly arranged bushes and trees. Soft streetlights create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The bottom right corner displays the logo for "Intimate Discoveries," and "WORK IN PROGRESS" is noted in the bottom left.

One of the locations of the story, a peaceful park.

3D scene in progress showing two stylized human models sitting across from each other in a pastel-colored diner booth, with black rigging lines and control handles visible. The set includes a table, diner seats, small plants, and overhead light. Overlay text reads "WORK IN PROGRESS" and "Intimate Discoveries."

Ehm... work in progress*

Two men sit closely together on a blue couch in a modern café, one with his arm around the other. They are enjoying drinks at a wooden table—one has a glass of water, the other a cup of coffee. The background features large windows, a geometric light fixture, a potted plant, and a neon coffee cup sign on the wall. The image is branded with "Intimate Discoveries" in the corner.

While being more simpler in story structure and in development, I hope to make it still engaging, enjoyable visual novel.

Prequel’s story will be more intense than the main, which is planned to be more laid back with a deeper twists in the background.

3/3

To make that happen, I’m now working on a prequel for the eventual, more complex main story. It will introduce the main character, Nelson, and his first steps fully discovering himself via initial love interests. Story will also go deeper into his and his family’s backstory.

2/3

Heyo! Had some personal issues but have been working on something during past month again. My current plan and a development focus is the following:

I realized my goals for the first release was bit too much. I want something out sooner than later for potential feedback and hopefully support.

I’ve done a lot of overall story stuff past month. Having a very good groove with the game development.

Soonish I can share more renders that will be in the first release, I think.

I meant to say more distinct chapters with overarching story arcs throughout the whole game.

Test render of the game with two guys, the guy in a black shirt and messy black hair pointing at something behind him and another guy in a blue shirt with short hair smiling.

Have been writing my game as in continuous story and planning to release it in some kind of good parts. It felt right at first but now I’m doing it in distinct chapters more traditionally. Part of the learning curve for me it seems.

Thank you for these words! They were needed.

Everyone’s path in game dev will be different.

You have folks coming from all different backgrounds and skill levels.

Be kind, patient, & helpful.

Make the game, anyway ❤️ that’ssit.

(I am rooting for you!)

I added an important AI disclaimer to my website. Please don't bite me too much art folks! In short: I will not use generated AI content and removed the last there was.

I wrote about it and other updates (like the game title) on my blog, linked it below if you're interested! 😘

Time to gradually do more work on the game as the new year comes. Past half of the year has been hardest time of my life but passion for creating shines bright again. Year 2025 will be a year of self-discovery, hopefully a year of the first game release. #adultgamedev #visualnovel #firstpost
