New Year Update


Hi, all!

We hope you've been having a good, or at least alright, holiday season. 2020 is finally over.

From here on out, we're aiming to have new game content released every 2-3 months until we're done.

Base Game Update

Before the Expansion Pack releases, we'll have 1 more "large" base game update. Some of the key details are listed below.

  • The in-game sprites are being completely recoded to allow for Boyfriend sprite customization. Whether or not you'll only have occasional opportunities to change his outfit or do it any time, we haven't decided yet, however.
  • A second wave of random events will be added. These, however, are not long story scenes. Instead, they're mini-events that affect and are affected by your Boyfriend's stats. Your stats may be raised, your affection could go up or down, or maybe nothing will happen at all. 
  • Some story choices will be altered to also affect your Boyfriend's stats.
    • Throughout the game, there are about a dozen "hidden" scene variations that only play if you have stats unrelated to your current route. Previously, we don't believe many people took notice of them, Hopefully, with the stat-related changes mentioned above, more will be able to discover them!
  • Some smaller new choices will be added and older ones may be altered, once again related to your Boyfriend's stats. We're presently looking into ways to indicate that such options exist in-game, even when you don't have the points to "unlock" them.

Expansion Pack Update

The release will be split into two so we can start getting content out quicker. The Fashionista's route will be released first, then the Thrillseeker's route will be released a few months later. We'd like to have the first part out by the end of May, so the second part will hopefully be out before September.

Patreon Launch

We've re-launched the Reine Works Patreon as sort of a tip jar. Subscribing at the $8 or $20 tier will net you awesome merch every 3 months, all handled by Patreon. We've mentioned it before, but we've put so much time and effort into developing SSWK (and continue to do so into 2021) that it hasn't exactly been profitable, so any help offered is greatly appreciated.

I like the extra stats thing actually having an effect. you guys say that is part of the game already but it must be super hidden or something... unless it was added in the 1.3 delay version. it is good you guys did mention still working on the game because I thought totally gave up on it XD

lastly, i think if anything the story needs the regular scenes to have more writing with more emotional value attached to them, since every scene I always feel either rushed or something was missing. I see there was effort to make us feel emotionally attached, but the thing with the parents was just thrown in for like one scene, barely talked about much again. The ex-boyfriend thing wasn't really touched upon much outside the fact that we know the MC had an ex-boyfriend and the relationship didn't end well. We get just a lot of basic background info but nothing is really getting as in depth as it should.
Even with the boyfriend, the most emotional route with has only so far been the base boyfriend route. while the rest has been just not as fleshed out feeling. Actually now that I think about it, I feel the base boyfriend route had the best writing and story overall compared to all the other.


anyway, I'm sure you guys got a lot of complaints about random certain stuff but that's mostly because people just want to see the game become something better. I really suggest focus on the writing more since write now it doesn't feel like a lot of heart was put into it. There is a game on here called The Pretender's Guild, it is free and I must say the writing there I could feel so emotionally attached to each character.
