B.E.S.T News
DEVLOG 4 : EPISODE 4 !
Hey B.E.S.T.I.E.S.!
It’s been a whole month since our last devlog… That’s way too long! I’ll try to keep you updated more often from now on. 😊
So, what’s been happening over the past month? A lot! We’ve made big strides to bring you the best gaming experience possible. Here’s what’s new:
🛠️ New Features
We’ve been expanding the in-game phone, and as you can see in the screenshot, we’ve added a contacts page!
👉 You can now track your relationship progress with each character through a heart scale.
👉 Plus, you’ll get additional details about the characters, helping you learn more about them while keeping track of your save. Handy, right?
📖 Story Progress
Several scenes are now complete, including renders and animations.
You’ll soon get to meet Madison’s family:
Her daughter might just melt your heart.
As for her mother… well, we can’t wait to hear what you think. 😏
The girls are gearing up for the next B.E.S.T challenge, and trust me, it’s packed with surprises!
For those of you who love Rufus, he’s back too! Keep your eyes peeled for hidden Rufus moments throughout this episode. 🐾
🎯 What’s Next?
We’re now halfway through this episode.
The first part will soon be available for testing on our support platforms.
This will help us squash bugs and fine-tune a few details before releasing the full episode.
If everything goes as planned, the full release should be ready around February!
🌊 A Little Tease…
I’ll leave you with this: Grace is heading back into the water soon. What do you think that means? I can’t wait to see it unfold—how about you?
Thank you all for your incredible support and patience. You’re the BEST!
See you soon for more updates… The girls are waiting, so it’s time to jump back in.

HOTFIX 3.05
CHANGELOG :
Option to skip Ruby's VN Explanation scene.
It's now easier to trigger Blue / Red Paths : You touch Julia in the plane , Blue Path is activated, you don't, Red path is activated. No more Madison's choice for trial and win of the trial needed to trigger Blue event in the locker room.

DEVLOG N°3 :
Hello B.E.S.T.I.E.S!
It’s been a while since we last updated you on our progress with the episode development, so here’s the latest!
We’re making great progress!
We’re getting close to the next big challenge, which will test everything we’ve learned in terms of gameplay and coding so far. Our goal is to make this something unique and fun for you.
The good news is that, for the first time in the game, you’ll have the chance to finish as the B.E.S.T. – rank #1, the best, the chosen one!
The catch? You’re going to have to earn it :)
And of course, with a new episode comes new features!
First, we’re excited to introduce our very first motion capture effects! You’ll get to see the results for yourself when you start the episode… I have a feeling you already know which girl will be talking to you… :)
Next, we’ve added a few cool things!
First, we’ve enhanced the messaging system with notifications, so you’ll know when you have messages waiting or when you can send them.
This icon will let you know if there are any messages waiting for you!
You’ll also see notifications in the phone apps to indicate where there are new activities or content available!
Finally… as you saw in the previous screenshot… we’ve created a special app for those who chose to talk to Kira during the party!
Introducing… our OnlyStan!
With this app, you’ll be able to see posts from the girls, read comments from their followers, and even leave your own comments… And if you know us, you know that leaving a comment on one of these posts might just unlock certain scenes… ;)
That’s all I’ll say for now…
Enjoy, and stay tuned for more updates soon!
