Chasing Sunsets Chapter 9 Development Cycle 10 Update
🕑 Added 2024-01-09 20:56:00 +0000 UTCKentyrr and I have been hard at work on Chapter 9 since shortly after the Chapter 8 launch in November.
Obviously, the holidays are a busy time for us both, but that hasn't prevented us from hitting the ground running for the penultimate update to Chasing Sunsets!
Threads will continue to converge until the end of the chapter brings us to the threshhold of the story's long-awaited conclusion.
For those who would have liked more Mallory and Jaye in the last chapter, you'll be happy to know that they return with a vengeance in our next update!
Chapter 9, tentatively titled "Chain Reaction, returns the cast to the US with the inheritance resolved, but looming uncertainties ahead.
What was on that flash drive? Will Jaye or Mallory draw lines in the sand for their affections? Will others MC has met along the way make a play for his own?
Speaking as the storysmith, I can say with significant excitement that Chapter 9 will contain several scenes I've waited a very long time to see visualized.
As of this writing, we are nearly 300 renders and three scenes into Chapter 9 from a development perspective. We have a lot to wrap up in the last two instalments, so it's hard to know for sure what the total render count will be for the update overall, but we won't put a fork in it until we've achieved all of the worldstates necessary to deliver the endings.
Chapter 9 will also see UI and feature refinements, as well as represent the beginning of our modernization and refinement effort on dated animations.
I've begun music selection earlier in the cycle than usual, and have inquiries for song licensing out to several artists which I hope will come through.
With the finish line in sight, our motivation to stick the landing has never been higher!
We'll keep you all updated as the development cycle progresses, and don't forget to check the #Previews channel in our Discord for exclusive sneak peeks at what we've got in the oven for you!

While I agree, I'm not feeling it with these girls. I just can't see Mallory and Jaye working out like that.

We already have a tonne of single-LI-only-path games, too. I prefer games where there's options for both single and poly routes, that way everyone wins.

I like the idea of choices that really matter. We already have a million harem games.

I discovered the game yesterday and played through all eight chapters in one sitting!

"Will Jaye or Mallory draw lines in the sand for their affections?" I keep hoping for a way for them to not end up doing that, even if it requires very high love and trust scores from both to achieve; ideally for Amanda to be included in that also. No harem, no open relationship, no side-girls, but a closed core-girls poly ending would be fantastic.
