Lub-dub.
Hello! July’s survey results on Cahoots’ basics are out. There were two ties, for which I flipped a coin.
Gameplay: Hybrid (VN and dating sim) Premise: Wafuu→Spotlighting supernatural rare in otome games Art & UI: Style B POV: Third person Endings: Two, close-ended
Project progress this week:
- The second survey, a yandere, runs from August 1 to 31. Take it to design Cahoots’ MC. See preview above.
Per previous update, I tried (PM, email, Prefundia, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, etc.); Cahoots is less than 1% funded. Building a community otome game requires a community, due to a lack thereof, the following changes were made.
- In accordance with the original outline, slim support means making a living first and making Cahoots second. Removed rewards (no backers, no worries).
- Shrank surveys from twenty-four to three, on general game specs, the MC, and the LI, a.k.a. bare basics. Pre-order before August 31, 2016 to participate in the MC and LI surveys, pre-order before September 30, 2016 to participate in the LI survey.
- The release date remains Q3 2018. Updates, however, have changed from bi-weekly to bi-monthly (monthly on Discord, typically the first or last).
- Cut CG count from 5 to 4.
- Cancelled crowdfunding, opened pre-orders at retail price ($5). In the interest of fairness, current contributors can redeem $5 from their $9 contribution for their choice of a Q4 2017 VN (all valued at $5, teasers available on Discord), or request a refund.

Hey.
Project progress this week:
- As you can see, Cahoots the community otome game is less than 1% funded almost a month into its campaign. The goal was $1850 USD. Due to support shortage, production cannot proceed as planned at outset.
- I temporarily disabled payment, hid files, and closed the community to consult current contributors regarding an alternative agenda, to be announced in August across platforms once I receive their feedback (1/2 ✓). If applicable, please check Discord and your email for details.
- Results from the July survey on general game specs and the August survey on the MC are still scheduled for release on August 1, 2016 for supporters.
Got comments and concerns? Message me.
Until next time!

Digital art by finger.
Plan B from a gadget glitch during @yaoijam. Problem resolved, procedure resumed.
I’d like to finger paint a game some day.
