Sep 30 05: it's been just over a month since my last update, and things have been going well! I reworked a few parts of the story, playtested it to make sure there were no major errors, and made sure I had enough time to think it all over. And so here's version 1.3 of Winn Freddie's story. It is an "art-less" draft. No images or music, but it is just about done. Not much more to say about this story.

I still think the story might need a little reworking. It's humorous, but it might work better as a more outrageous comedy. Regardless, this art-less draft will be submitted to the archive site http://www.renaigames.net in a day or two. And if I can find someone willing to create art for the game, well...

My next project will be a short, somewhat experimental visual novel. It will begin in the first days of October 2005, and I will finish it near the end of December 05. But until I unveil a "teaser" version in mid-October, I'm keeping quiet about it. Don't want to spoil the story, much less reveal too much when not everything is planned...

(In case anyone wants my unfinished project Singles Camp, here it is. And my earliest unfinished project, YYH: Yusuke's Day Off, can still be found here. No plans to rework either one.)

Yes, I have neglected this Tripod site. (It doesn't help that viewing it without popup blockers is very annoying.) But I'm using it mostly to hold my unfinished projects until they're ready for publishing. And until I have a little time to invest in a better site.

If anyone wishes to contact me, that person can leave a reply on my LJ (http://www.livejournal.com/users/taiyakifan), send me a personal message in the Megatokyo and Lemma Soft forums (under the handle Gekiganwing), or just send an email to the address below.

In regards to my YYH game, thanks and apologies go out to the creator of YYH, Yoshihiro Togashi, as well as licensors such as Viz and Funimation. I also owe a debt to everyone who has helped me overcome creative blocks, and everyone who has helped me discovered good dating sims and bishoujo games.

So says The Taiyaki Fan.
