I would like to express my opinion regarding this new update. Spoiler Alert!
We finally got a date with Brando, and it was really sweet in my opinion. After seeing Cedrik with that nice body I expect that in the next Date with him there will be a NSFW scene. I'm also really curious about that silver dragon Camila was involved with, I hope that in the next few days he can be a character we can have Dates with. The plot seems to be progressing well, towards the end it seemed to me that Yarin's sanity was lowering while he was in the elevator and that scene with the demon gave me a really bad feeling.
If I may make a suggestion for the next update, I would like to see some CGs added for the Date with Azorin, especially the scene in his hotel room; then I would like to see dates for the characters who have less of them, so they can catch up with the others, so to speak.
I thank you at Juicy Drake Studios for reading and I look forward to hearing from you!
We really enjoyed reading your comment, thanks a lot. Seeing you and others get excited makes our work all worthwhile.
Without giving away too much, we do have plans for the spoiler characters you mentioned.
As far as dates for other characters go: we actually are currently working on them. The next big content drop will be a rework to days 6 - 8 given that they are fairly short compared to all other days.
It'll allow for characters like Kovle to get some time to show up.
Regarding CGs of Azorin: Do you mean such for the sex scene? Because they should be in the build unless you are referring to something else.
We do not have any plans for localisations outside of "Maybe after the game is finished".
Considering that we're just about to get into act 2, and we still have at least 3 more ahead of us, there won't be any localisations for a long while.
I also call it "localisation" and not "translation" because, for example, a lot of the jokes that characters like Cedrik crack are puns which you cannot translate 1:1.
Currently, we just do not have the time or funding to hire another person to localise the game for us into any other language, and then also to check their content.
I noticed when you talk with Cedrik (I already forgot how to spell his name) and you commit to say yes to an option, I was wondering if you had anything planned with that. Also, I absolutely love your story writing and art!
You were correct, Cedrik is how his name is spelled!
I have already been planning out the framework for the intersex path. I even started to write out a bit of content for it. It will also be accessible through other characters, but there will be variations.
So, short answer: Yes, there is content planned for it!
And I am glad to hear you've been enjoying our content. We hope to deliver more very soon~
Lol, i thought it ended with a c but i doubted myself and with with k but thats really cool to hear that there will be an intersex path! I look forward to your updates and can't wait when the game finishes! <3
Trying to download the VN because I'm on windows but I'm having trouble downloading it because it downloads as an .exe and keep getting an error saying my laptop doesn't trust the download.
I don’t know if this is another bug or if someone else said it, but if you either choose Brando it repeats the story chapter again and again. At least when I click alone afterwards. It’s an endless loop of the visiting the duskin. I noticed it can repeat too normally and the option for lucra explaining more about mindalu doesn’t always show up. On a side note, does cedrik have more than one date? But really, keep up the great work please!!! I love the game!! By the way, are we able to commission art featuring a character like lucra or such as long as we have your permission??
This bug has been fixed by now. The reason why the Brando content only looped sometimes is, this bug only occured if you had slept with Brando, which skipped part of the next day forward.
This had also skipped some game logic, so the game still thought it was on day 3, even though it was already showing parts of day 4.
Cedrik does have two dates at the moment. In the first one the two of you hang around in the spa area, in the second one you go to a diner together. Have you not been able to access the second date?
And regarding your question about art commissions: We are fine with fanart, as long as it isn't being resold. So, commissions are fine, but not if you were for example to wanting to use this art in selling prints or within another game that you make yourself and then sell.
Commissioning fanart is fine by us. You can probably even ask our artists directly if you would like them to make you something.
ah no of course! I meant just for fanart. I already know not to do any art that would sully or look bad upon the visual novel or brand. ^^ I’d never want my favorite novels to be seen poorly! You guys have really done a great job!
Hi, I was wondering if the game can run on adroid version higher then 11, my new A55 (runs android 14) cant install the game bc its " Incompatible with my device" when i try it over an android virtual machine on my phone it atleast gives me a clearer error, " install failed, No matching ABIS". I read that this could be because of the Cpu architecture or smt similar, is this true, if yes is there a fix? I would really apreciate if someone could help me with this.
I can check later on if the game runs on later Android versions. I just happened to get myself a new Android phone this month. My old one was running Android 8 which is what I was using to test the Android builds.
I imagine the reason why there might be some incompatibilities is because the game is still running on Godot 3.
I have been slowly working on fixing underlying engine code, but I can't give you an ETA when I will be finished. The kind of stuff I am working on should also take care of save file bugs.
edit: My current phone is running Android 14 and I can confirm that I get the same error message. But it lets me install the game anyway and it does work.
We'll investigate further. The error message "No matching ABIS" is specific to emulators it seems, however, it does give us a pointer to work with. I imagine we might have to update our android spk.
edit2: It should be fixed now. Let me know if it runs or not.
while im not on patreon, from what i can see from the public side, they have an update possibly planned for later this month for patreons, which means we should get an update soon after
Man, the story of this game is simply incredible! I started playing without much expectation and was very positively surprised by what you delivered. The characters are spectacular and the story captivated me and involved me so much that I feel anxious for the next updates.
A big applause for the script, the characters, the arts and the scenes, everything is very well done and I hope it continues with this same quality in future updates.
I feel bad for not being able to help you financially, but I guarantee that my words are true when I say that the game is incredible. Your work is excellent and I hope you gain more recognition.
A gallery to view the art assets is planned, but it hasn't been high on our priority list yet as we are working on some other game features at the moment.
While it technically is easy to add in, we probably would want it to have some extra features, so we will let you know when we start implementing it.
I love this VN so much. The plot, The characters and the worldbuilding excites me I am just hoping for newer contents. Thank you and stay safe to the people behind this amazing game. I love Brym he so hot and well written.
so far I like everything very much, the only thing I would like to see at the moment would be a save system to save the save points so I don't have to start a new game over and over again, and it would also make it much easier to take different routes.
there are so many interesting characters i definitely want to meet and i already have a few favorites but my absolute favorite is somehow kovle i'm kinda stuck on him he's kinda super cute~
Uhmmmmmm, I hate to break this to you my dude, but you press the esc button or right click on you mouse to bring up the pause menu. From there it should be easy to see the save and load options.....
don't worry that's fine, but I think you misunderstood me a bit.
it's not about how to save a game, it's about the fact that it would be more convenient like other visual novels do that there is a save folder where you can save the game files and copy them out when a new version of the game comes out so you don't always have to start a new game.
because earlier this was still possible in the very first older versions but at some point it was taken out.
I don't tend to that, because those saves are more likely to crash and i tend to save a lot in an unorganized fashion. It ends up being more of a pain to keep them than to start fresh. :P
There is a save folder in this game, its just a bit more complicated to get to, but if you go to the options menu and click on User Data you should be able to find it.
Hey ^^_ would it be too much to ask for the save system to be changed? Maybe at least being able to chose the slot we save under? So I could, like, have an empty space between each save? I like keeping a lot of saves for differnt characters, but with all the saves bunched together, it kinda dissuades me from exploring routes other than Brym's :/
hey juicy drake studios, i like how the android version is but i kinda wish this game was done by now, i got into lucora the lovely bat girl X3, but im more of the female fan than male, er anyways i downloaded the game like 2 days ago an now i got to the part where you all are still working on it... ooof idk when you will complete it but im sure itll be on the patreon payment thing i bet, er anyways nice job on the game keep it up im just gonna have to uninstall it for now...but i am sure you will get it done soon i hope.
Since I didn't have the money for Patreon benefits, I sold various things, including my parents' wedding rings and my father's watch. They discovered me.
What are you saying?! Of course they weren't at home, I wouldn't kill my parents! I haven't... been able to do anything for them yet. We are rich, so we can buy a house right away. From my region I can't do anything for them, but I don't feel like working!
small bug report here. When using spacebar to move forward instead of the mouse the novel will glitch out, bringing up the menu. This happens about every 10 button presses.
I thank your artist for creating so many drawings, many of the characters now seem to "have more reason" and no longer seem static and without empathy. Also now in the events there are also some completely new beautiful illustrative images. I have a thought about the third date with Garreth, I think the third person who joined their fun is Cedrik, who uses a different voice so as not to be recognized easily, the physical body and the colors are the same, so I think it's just him. I've noticed that there are some black backgrounds in Azorin and Stralf the bellboy's R-18 events, but I think those are empty spaces that the artist will eventually replace with illustrative drawings. If I can make a suggestion, I would tell you to remove the "Spend time alone" option, because it seems useless and doesn't seem to lead to secret events (maybe it's me speaking and actually there are secret events, in that case, please, inform me. I would also like to know the processes.)
Now, there's something serious I need to tell you about.
I'm sure it will take a long time for the game to be complete, with all sprites properly inserted, all bugs fixed, etc. There's only one thing that worries me. Among your followers there will certainly be people who want to do a 100%, if the story goes on for at least one month (that is 30 or 31 days), I think there should be enough days for all the dates of the game. If I can give an example, in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet it was possible at various times to interact in visual novel style with the teaching staff of the Academy, where at the beginning they feel a certain sympathy for the player, and at the end there was a reward that ends with the protagonist and the lecturer making friends. Honestly in my opinion there shouldn't be dozens of appointments for every single character, I know that among the developers there is someone with a lot of imagination, but in my opinion it's better not to overdo it. I'm also worried about one thing. Years have passed since 2019 and my priority towards the game has changed. A lot of stuff has been added to the storyline, subplots have been added, other characters and the evolution of these characters. Originally it was all about horror and gay sex, and the main storyline you should know was the experience of Yarin losing all memory of his past, period. That was his purpose but you didn't give a damn, you focused more on dating the main characters and supporting characters and sex scenes but now you developers are putting in three hundred million dates and stuff and I'm a little worried about it too this fact. Because the more stuff you add, the harder it is to manage. I hope you know how to manage all this stuff you're putting in and that in the end you don't close everything like an egg (like the eighth season of Goth). So I'm interested in Yarin's story, I'm interested in the main characters, in the new bonds, as you understand, I'm interested in the characters and the evolution of the plot. Well, I'm among the (at least) five hundred people who ship people, I ship a lot of characters and I have my main ship of Grovyle from PMD and Astolfo from Fate, ok, but you'll understand that after at least two hours of play, for days of the game, which forcibly pull this push and pull on the harbingers of doom, upcoming horror scenes and character reports, indeed imply that it is an erotic horror video game, when the scary scenes are only scary the first time you see them, because in the end this side seems like a joke to me. So please guys please don't hate me for this. Maybe I'm not quite as into it as I was before. I too would like to make myself useful for this project, I could act as a consultant, or in my free time send you hand-drawn sprites of minor characters or extras by email. Thank you for reading, I deeply apologize if I was rude and I wish you a happy Liberation Day.
Thank you for your thought-out feedback, I hope to clear up any frustrations you may have with our development.
We were still working on it during all those months where we didn't push out a build. Since 2019 we have made multiple staff adjustments, the main story had been written out by a former writer and we had to do rewrites and fixed many of the worries you have.
I, Lone Wanderer, had joined the team in 2018 and always intended the game to delve into an angle of existential and psychological horror for which we had rewritten the entire game to fit our new standards.
It should hopefully become more clear by the time we get into the next chapter. This first chapter (which will be days 1 - 10) serves as a way to build the world, the characters, so that we can work with all of them in the segments that come up.
In order for the themes of the game to work, you also need to know who the people and environment around you are. This is why we are having routes where you can hang out with people. We do care about the identity crisis that Yarin would face in this situation, for which we also did create and push out new content in 0.3.9. We have added several more subtle hints at the main character experiencing a subdued but everpresent anxiety in most situations.
We are also almost finished with the amount of dates we want to add to the first chapter at least. We only have a few dates remaining before we move on to different types of content.
Regarding the option to spend time alone: We did also want to add an option in case one is not interested in hanging out with the other characters. We are also planning to add several short scenes to it, where Nyrok might find ways to occupy himself.
We do appreciate that you have been following our game project for this long, and if you feel like checking out our future content at your own pace, we will still be here.
We apologize for the very late response, but internally we have been talking about creating and adding one sex scene with Brymror at least before the next story arc which will take place on days 11 onwards.
We do not have any concrete plans we can share at the moment, but unless things change, we were hoping to add this kind of intimate content with him either on day 9 or 10. Day 9 is still in the works at the moment and it's taking us a bit longer than usual to add more content of Brym because of all the potential variances with him.
I know that you just updated the game and probably won't update it again this year but I just just wanted to say I hope more story content for brym will be added relatively soon I honestly he is my favorite love interest for y a r i n every once in a while I will go back to reading identity and I keep hoping for more story in general but keep up the good work anyway
We do hope to release another batch of content sooner than next year (we hope for May or at worst June, actually), even though our prior release patterns might not inspire too much confidence. Even if we might not release many builds, we are working on the game.
We cannot tell you yet when new Brym content is going to come out, but we are working on it currently for day 9. It is taking us a bit, as we basically have to write out several different variances on him all throughout the entire day.
If you are interested in following along our development, we do make public dev diaries on our Patreon, occasionally, where we present things like our progress on character dates or stories. I imagine Brym will still have to cook for probably about a month at least still, before we can give more concrete news.
I understand it's just that I wasn't expecting the update not to give any story content whatsoever I mean I still have my save file from last year or so minus the save technically after the date with him somehow it l e a d back to the quote unquote that at the diner and for some reason I tried to duplicate my save file and I know you don't have another Hangout with him even coded yet just thought I'd share a screenshot

I would like to express my opinion regarding this new update. Spoiler Alert!
We finally got a date with Brando, and it was really sweet in my opinion. After seeing Cedrik with that nice body I expect that in the next Date with him there will be a NSFW scene. I'm also really curious about that silver dragon Camila was involved with, I hope that in the next few days he can be a character we can have Dates with. The plot seems to be progressing well, towards the end it seemed to me that Yarin's sanity was lowering while he was in the elevator and that scene with the demon gave me a really bad feeling.

Regarding CGs of Azorin: Do you mean such for the sex scene? Because they should be in the build unless you are referring to something else.
Lone_Wanderer
Yes, I am referring to the sex scene at the Azorin event, both while they are kissing and undressing and while they are on the bed.
I also had trouble getting them to load, the screen was black when the cgs are supposed to be shown
Roy is my favorite. The wolf is just so sexy and boyfriend material
We had a lot of fun writing him, heh.
Glad you enjoy him, he will show up again in the future as you can imagine~
Lone_Wanderer
Im obsessed with Corvolin...i hope theres more content with him soon =3 maybe a sexy bad ending..heh great work yall!
Corvolin is one character that has been on my mind quite a bit as well. There is already a lot of content with them that isn't finished yet.
It is probably one of the most expansive characters I have written yet, but as a result, writing this content has taken me longer.
I am hoping to get to work on Corvolin next again, actually.
Lone_Wanderer
Is the idea to have a Spanish translation?
We do not have any plans for localisations outside of "Maybe after the game is finished".
Considering that we're just about to get into act 2, and we still have at least 3 more ahead of us, there won't be any localisations for a long while.

I have never played this game before and this is the first one I have picked up and I really like it and I hope to play the update soon.
Lucky for you, the next update happened to be just around the corner~
Lone_Wanderer

Just reached the end of the build and I was audibly disappointed that it didn't keep going.
Super enjoying Identity so far, excited to see more in the future
ITS BACK!
I'm so glad this game is getting updated again! It was and still is one of my favorites.
Trying to download the VN because I'm on windows but I'm having trouble downloading it because it downloads as an .exe and keep getting an error saying my laptop doesn't trust the download.
I am not really sure what the issue is, because I develop the game on Windows, albeit I am on Windows 10. Which one is your OS?
Lone_Wanderer
My OS is Windows 11 but I did manged to get downloaded in the end though
I don’t know if this is another bug or if someone else said it, but if you either choose Brando it repeats the story chapter again and again. At least when I click alone afterwards. It’s an endless loop of the visiting the duskin. I noticed it can repeat too normally and the option for lucra explaining more about mindalu doesn’t always show up. On a side note, does cedrik have more than one date? But really, keep up the great work please!!! I love the game!! By the way, are we able to commission art featuring a character like lucra or such as long as we have your permission??
Hey there, Lone_Wanderer here,
Are playing the public or the patron build?
This bug has been fixed by now. The reason why the Brando content only looped sometimes is, this bug only occured if you had slept with Brando, which skipped part of the next day forward.

Why is there a repeated sound effect after the face off with Mindalu? It sounds an Ice spell being casted
Lone_Wanderer here, we are currently looking into it; it used to not do this specific sound bug before.
I am currently also working on some fundamental changes to prevent bugs like these to happen in the future.
edit: I simply disabled the sound until we figure out the underlying issues. This change will also go live in the next public version.
why does the game loop after the get-together? everytime i choose who to spend time with brym gets amnesia and we do it all over again.
It should be fixed with the next release. Thank you for letting us know.
Hi,
I was wondering if the game can run on adroid version higher then 11, my new A55 (runs android 14) cant install the game bc its " Incompatible with my device" when i try it over an android virtual machine on my phone it atleast gives me a clearer error, " install failed, No matching ABIS".
I read that this could be because of the Cpu architecture or smt similar, is this true, if yes is there a fix?
I would really apreciate if someone could help me with this.
Hey there, Lone_Wanderer here,
I can check later on if the game runs on later Android versions. I just happened to get myself a new Android phone this month. My old one was running Android 8 which is what I was using to test the Android builds.

edit2: It should be fixed now. Let me know if it runs or not.
Hi,
The game now Installs perfectly without any errors.
Thank you for fixing this problem.
Have a nice day. (:
So is this another dead furry game? Because this is getting from aggravating to just plain sad
while im not on patreon, from what i can see from the public side, they have an update possibly planned for later this month for patreons, which means we should get an update soon after
Im waiting for a kovle route
So happy with how far things have progressed with Brym... he's so cute and I love a protective man. Can't wait for more with him, hes the best!
The game is very fun and everything about it is very charming, be it the characters or the story. I recommend it to everyone who likes the genre
Man, the story of this game is simply incredible! I started playing without much expectation and was very positively surprised by what you delivered. The characters are spectacular and the story captivated me and involved me so much that I feel anxious for the next updates.
A big applause for the script, the characters, the arts and the scenes, everything is very well done and I hope it continues with this same quality in future updates.
I feel bad for not being able to help you financially, but I guarantee that my words are true when I say that the game is incredible. Your work is excellent and I hope you gain more recognition.
PS: I hope for hot scenes with Brym 7w7
After been saved.
"Meow, Azorin my hero, wanna marry me?"
=^.~=
Seems i cannot erase or move the file ever since i downloaded it. Why?
Finally got around to a scene with a certain detective and it's got me twirling my hair like a fuckin idiot
Can you add gallery to the game please!
Hello!

While it technically is easy to add in, we probably would want it to have some extra features, so we will let you know when we start implementing it.
any idea when will be next ubdate ?
The world needs more scalie VNs, thank you :')
I love this VN so much. The plot, The characters and the worldbuilding excites me I am just hoping for newer contents. Thank you and stay safe to the people behind this amazing game. I love Brym he so hot and well written.
This was certainly something different from what I'm used to. Love it
You have found some quality content.
[CONSUME]
… how do I get bar music out of my head now? It's so catchy.
so far I like everything very much, the only thing I would like to see at the moment would be a save system to save the save points so I don't have to start a new game over and over again, and it would also make it much easier to take different routes.

Since I didn't have the money for Patreon benefits, I sold various things, including my parents' wedding rings and my father's watch. They discovered me.
Oh, interesting. And... how did it go?
I don't know why, but they got really mad, so I burned down the house.
Huh?!? But... But what are you up to?! And your parents? Don't tell me you...!
What are you saying?! Of course they weren't at home, I wouldn't kill my parents! I haven't... been able to do anything for them yet. We are rich, so we can buy a house right away. From my region I can't do anything for them, but I don't feel like working!
small bug report here. When using spacebar to move forward instead of the mouse the novel will glitch out, bringing up the menu. This happens about every 10 button presses.
Is there now or will there be a planed screen shot function?
Hey i would like to know if there is more Story for Kovle planned? I really like that caracter and would love to see more ^^
Hello, I would like to give my feedback.
I thank your artist for creating so many drawings, many of the characters now seem to "have more reason" and no longer seem static and without empathy. Also now in the events there are also some completely new beautiful illustrative images. I have a thought about the third date with Garreth, I think the third person who joined their fun is Cedrik, who uses a different voice so as not to be recognized easily, the physical body and the colors are the same, so I think it's just him. I've noticed that there are some black backgrounds in Azorin and Stralf the bellboy's R-18 events, but I think those are empty spaces that the artist will eventually replace with illustrative drawings. If I can make a suggestion, I would tell you to remove the "Spend time alone" option, because it seems useless and doesn't seem to lead to secret events (maybe it's me speaking and actually there are secret events, in that case, please, inform me. I would also like to know the processes.)
Now, there's something serious I need to tell you about.
I'm sure it will take a long time for the game to be complete, with all sprites properly inserted, all bugs fixed, etc. There's only one thing that worries me. Among your followers there will certainly be people who want to do a 100%, if the story goes on for at least one month (that is 30 or 31 days), I think there should be enough days for all the dates of the game. If I can give an example, in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet it was possible at various times to interact in visual novel style with the teaching staff of the Academy, where at the beginning they feel a certain sympathy for the player, and at the end there was a reward that ends with the protagonist and the lecturer making friends. Honestly in my opinion there shouldn't be dozens of appointments for every single character, I know that among the developers there is someone with a lot of imagination, but in my opinion it's better not to overdo it. I'm also worried about one thing. Years have passed since 2019 and my priority towards the game has changed. A lot of stuff has been added to the storyline, subplots have been added, other characters and the evolution of these characters. Originally it was all about horror and gay sex, and the main storyline you should know was the experience of Yarin losing all memory of his past, period. That was his purpose but you didn't give a damn, you focused more on dating the main characters and supporting characters and sex scenes but now you developers are putting in three hundred million dates and stuff and I'm a little worried about it too this fact. Because the more stuff you add, the harder it is to manage. I hope you know how to manage all this stuff you're putting in and that in the end you don't close everything like an egg (like the eighth season of Goth). So I'm interested in Yarin's story, I'm interested in the main characters, in the new bonds, as you understand, I'm interested in the characters and the evolution of the plot. Well, I'm among the (at least) five hundred people who ship people, I ship a lot of characters and I have my main ship of Grovyle from PMD and Astolfo from Fate, ok, but you'll understand that after at least two hours of play, for days of the game, which forcibly pull this push and pull on the harbingers of doom, upcoming horror scenes and character reports, indeed imply that it is an erotic horror video game, when the scary scenes are only scary the first time you see them, because in the end this side seems like a joke to me. So please guys please don't hate me for this. Maybe I'm not quite as into it as I was before. I too would like to make myself useful for this project, I could act as a consultant, or in my free time send you hand-drawn sprites of minor characters or extras by email. Thank you for reading, I deeply apologize if I was rude and I wish you a happy Liberation Day.
Thank you for your thought-out feedback, I hope to clear up any frustrations you may have with our development.
We were still working on it during all those months where we didn't push out a build. Since 2019 we have made multiple staff adjustments, the main story had been written out by a former writer and we had to do rewrites and fixed many of the worries you have.
I, Lone Wanderer, had joined the team in 2018 and always intended the game to delve into an angle of existential and psychological horror for which we had rewritten the entire game to fit our new standards.
It should hopefully become more clear by the time we get into the next chapter. This first chapter (which will be days 1 - 10) serves as a way to build the world, the characters, so that we can work with all of them in the segments that come up.
In order for the themes of the game to work, you also need to know who the people and environment around you are. This is why we are having routes where you can hang out with people. We do care about the identity crisis that Yarin would face in this situation, for which we also did create and push out new content in 0.3.9. We have added several more subtle hints at the main character experiencing a subdued but everpresent anxiety in most situations.
We are also almost finished with the amount of dates we want to add to the first chapter at least. We only have a few dates remaining before we move on to different types of content.
Regarding the option to spend time alone: We did also want to add an option in case one is not interested in hanging out with the other characters. We are also planning to add several short scenes to it, where Nyrok might find ways to occupy himself.
We do appreciate that you have been following our game project for this long, and if you feel like checking out our future content at your own pace, we will still be here.
Is there a continuation to this scenes?
Hello there!
No, we do not have additional scenes for Brando written out yet. It is something on our radar, and we are also getting quite a few requests for him.
Brando is a character we did talk and brainstorm a lot about, internally, but the focus with our upcoming content hadn't been on him yet.
We will let you know when there is news on him.
Thank you
when i will be able to have sex with brymror
Greetings!
We apologize for the very late response, but internally we have been talking about creating and adding one sex scene with Brymror at least before the next story arc which will take place on days 11 onwards.
We do not have any concrete plans we can share at the moment, but unless things change, we were hoping to add this kind of intimate content with him either on day 9 or 10. Day 9 is still in the works at the moment and it's taking us a bit longer than usual to add more content of Brym because of all the potential variances with him.
I know that you just updated the game and probably won't update it again this year but I just just wanted to say I hope more story content for brym will be added relatively soon I honestly he is my favorite love interest for y a r i n every once in a while I will go back to reading identity and I keep hoping for more story in general but keep up the good work anyway
We do hope to release another batch of content sooner than next year (we hope for May or at worst June, actually), even though our prior release patterns might not inspire too much confidence. Even if we might not release many builds, we are working on the game.
We cannot tell you yet when new Brym content is going to come out, but we are working on it currently for day 9. It is taking us a bit, as we basically have to write out several different variances on him all throughout the entire day.
If you are interested in following along our development, we do make public dev diaries on our Patreon, occasionally, where we present things like our progress on character dates or stories. I imagine Brym will still have to cook for probably about a month at least still, before we can give more concrete news.
I understand it's just that I wasn't expecting the update not to give any story content whatsoever I mean I still have my save file from last year or so
minus the save technically after the date with him somehow it l e a d back to the quote unquote that at the diner and for some reason I tried to duplicate my save file and I know you don't have another Hangout with him even coded yet just thought I'd share a screenshot
