After a lot of work on Next Door Girl April, I have decided to put it on hold.
I honestly thought I could rebuild the story in 3d, but it turns out my assumptions were wrong.
It just wasn't fun to play and building it felt more like a chore than I'd like.
The core of the issue is finding out what the game should actually be.
Displaying all of the text of the original story along side of characters acting it out is just strange.
Removing the descriptive part of the text and leaving only the dialogue felt very empty.
Having the models just act out various sex scenes isn't really a game at all, but more of a simulation.
It is incredibly easy to criticize sex scenes in video games, until you are actually the one trying to create one yourself.

This is a minor fix of some of the rules towards the end of the story.What is this exactly?
I forgot to actually talk about the project ... here goes.
Next Door Girl April
Widowed after a loving marriage, Donald Hardeman leads a quiet secluded life in a big empty home. Donald maintains a small electronics import business to fill his otherwise misery filled days. He wakes to a large empty bed, goes to his home office to tend the daily orders and then cries his memories away at night. Donald longs for the feeling of a woman's warm touch, but he hasn't yet recovered from the tragic loss of his wife Nellie and subsequent disappearance of his adult son Raymond. Donald's world turns upside down with the sudden appearance of a familiar face from the past, that of the next door girl April, who has blossomed into a beautiful young woman.
Progress Update
Hello.
The current transition into Unity is taking a while. The major task is getting all of the dialogue into a form Unity can use. I haven't been able to find a way to do this without writing some sort of new code. I am currently working on it, but can't say when I will have something ready for sure. The project is not dead ... just nothing to see this week. Thanks for checking in though.
