Love Hues! (2018 DEMO)
Ask and Tell Me Anything! + Where will the game go from here?
Hi folks!
Whether you're a new follower or a visitor, I truly appreciate all the downloads the game has gotten so far! I hope that you're enjoying it.
I'm here today to discuss two things: one, I want to encourage bug reports and feedback, if you'd like to give em, and two, I want to discuss when/how I will be posting game dev updates!
Please feel free to submit your bug reports, feedback, concerns or thoughts!
I'd like to start off by reassuring anybody who's shy that it's totally OK to send me your thoughts about the game! (especially bugs!) If you run into any issue, there's something you'd like to more about or you just want to say hi, do feel free to either use the game's community tab on mobile (comments on PC) or the comments section of this thread. I check everything very frequently! Thank you in advance for your time. :D
I'm also available on Twitter @ love_hues_game if you want to chat there. I'll be listening!
Game updates/frequency of updates/tentative release date?
The tentative release date for the game will be the end of December this year (2018 depending on when this post is read). I'm working very hard to meet this date although I may need to push it back slightly.
At this point I'm focusing on polishing the script of each route, tying the game together and overhauling old CGs (and maybe modifying or adding a BG or two). The game's old GUI has already been overhauled and the game's other supporting elements were fixed/improved when I made the demo, so I do think I'll be able to meet the deadline.
Ideally I'd like to post bi-weekly reports here, but since so much of my current work focuses around background progress in the game that's difficult to share, I might be late on these reports. I'll likely include a few screenshots per post + approximate progress towards game completion (e.g. Toby's route is about 90% done, QA still needs to be done, 4 CGs still need to be replaced.) I do post pretty much daily on the Love Hues Twitter if you're looking for very frequent updates!
If you're reading this line, thank you for reading the entire post and I'm excited to hear from you!

I really liked the Demo and I'm looking forward to play the full release! I really want to see how James' route ends, he's my favorite character after all.
Good luck and stay safe!
Hi!! Thank you so much for playing the demo and for writing kind words! I'm just as eager to release the full game, to be honest - I'm working very hard in the background. I'll try my best not to overwork! :D
How are you feeling :p
Very grateful to see a comment! Thank you for asking! :D
Hahaha, you're welcome. I've not played your demo yet, but I'll give feedback as soon as I can! (also that was some pretty fast response time, wow)
EDIT: And I must say the fact that James is pre-med turned my head and caught my attention within a matter of seconds.
I really appreciate that, thank you!! Take your time - I hope you enjoy the game (though any and all feedback is very welcome! I'm so excited to hear what people think haha). And I strive to answer as quickly as I can; I'm always checking all my channels (i.e. Itch and Twitter primarily).
(I can't pick favorites among my cast but I have to say that I like James, too!)
