After the little distraction with the Apocalypse Chronicles, I'm back working on the new update for Hard News. There's still a lot of work to do, but I'll be able to keep up with my schedule.
Speaking of Apocalypse Chronicles, the first episode is available for all patrons, you can get it from here. The future episodes will be made as a bonus for the higher tiers only, but I'm sharing this one so you can look it up and see if you're interested or not. It is very different from the game.
I also wanted to explain a small change I made at the end of the last update, between the BETA and the final release. If you haven't played it yet, you should skip the next paragraph.
Those of you who have played the first BETA may have noticed that I changed the way two of the possible paths end. In that first version, if Jessica spies on the neighbors, she goes back home and Conner is already sleeping. They also go to bed if she hides from him her disappointment with his oral skills. Then in the final version, I make those two branches end abruptly (one just when she leaves the neighbors' home and the other when she tells him she should take care of him). I just didn't like the idea of him falling asleep, it felt lame, cliche. Sooo, now when she comes home he's waiting for her. And there will be a choice, so if you still want to cockblock the guy, you can do so :)
Well, enough for now. Have fun and thanks for the support.

It's quite admirable that you take the time to review the narrative nuance and flow of the choices made. Good on you to revisit such scenes for the sake of consistency and story!
