A yellow daisy to the rain;
My heart will be a lovely cup
Altho' it holds but pain.
For I shall learn from flower and leaf
That color every drop they hold,
To change the lifeless wine of grief
To living gold."

Hello!
It's been a pretty exhausting day, so I'll try to keep it short. I've been spending last week writing and rendering stills. I may have gotten overly excited about a part of the story and maybe written more than I intended, but it shouldn't be too much of an issue. As long as I don't ...

Hello!
The holidays have come and gone (thank fuck), and I'm starting to get back into the groove of things after taking some time off (I didn't mean to, honestly, I just got sick). But, that being said, status report right now is we're at ~10k words and about 500 images. Around 50% of the ...

New Year just dropped
Some time in November, Zero End celebrated its first year of development. Well, celebrated might be a bit much since I completely forgot about it (I'd make a horrible parent), but it did mark its anniversary. I figured since the game's been out for a year an...

It's her again. She features quite prominently in the first part of the release, so she'll keep popping up like this.

Hello!
Another week is over and I'd like to take some time to give an overall update. Writing is going pretty well, we're over 7k words and I wanna get to 10k by the end of the year. Now, normally, I'd comment on how much that is out of the projected total, but as I've learned recently, thi...

Hello!
I delayed the update a bit as I was sick last week and couldn't get much done on the project what with feeling ill and being too tired after work. So I figured I'd update now as I'm feeling better and have started working hard again. I did manage to write two more scenes and get some...

Hello!
I'm back. You may have noticed I didn't have an update last week. The reason for that was that I didn't have anything to update. I assumed the week-long conference at work would take a lot of my time and energy, but I severely underestimated just how much. I was basically leaving at ...

I got some comments on the webs mentioning that the erotic scenes in the game are mid and figured I'd make a survey to see how I can improve the experience.
If you got time, I'd appreciate it if you could help with some thoughts: 2023-11-26 20:08:51 +0000 UTC

Hello,
Sorry for the small delay with the update. I had a very rough weekend due to some very poor decisions, but it has led to a realize that there's no way I'll pull through if I don't take care of myself. And I've been doing just that. This won't adversely affect the development of the g...

I'll any% speedrun the updates this time as there's not a lot to say. Managed to write another scene (though I feel it needs some editing) and started rendering images for the first scene. More importantly, I spent about two days setting up my new system (yay). I used the money saved...

It's more of a test. While I really like how she looks in black, I think it would be better to use warmer colors so I can contrast how she was before with how she is now (visually). Also, that hair is killing me, it makes Daz insanely laggy. Need to figure out something. I tried reducing the qual...

Sail away far into the night

Hello!
It's been a fun week! I've gone hard on the UI and managed to (I hope) finish everything that was needed for the UI rework. I've actually went in a slightly different direction than what I showed last week. I feel like it was too gothic and not enough modern, so I shifted the look to...

I'm back with an update (kind of). After taking some time off to rest, I'm ready to get back into development. Considering that I don't have much to update, I figured I'd instead give a rough outline of what comes next and what to expect.

This could have done with a bit more testing, but I am absolutely burnt out. I went through it as many times as I could. If anything crops up, I'll patch it afterward. Hope you enjoy. I believe it's my best work yet.
