The chapter 3 release post was updated with the 0.3.1 patch.
This fixed a couple bugs and lots of typos, misspellings and grammatical error. Thank you to everyone that helped identifying the issues and for your patience while I fix these things.
The android version is also online already with version 0.3.1

2022-01-28 20:02:34 +0000 UTC View PostThe little things always take so long… I thought this would be faster. But the new update is almost ready.
If there isn’t any major problem while making the distributions and uploading the game, it should be released tomorrow.
The script of this chapter has more than 9000 lines of code, where the previous two had around 7000. A lot of this increase is due to alternative choices and dialogues. So, a single playthrough should still take roughly the same time of the pr...

As you can see, our protagonist will have the chance to spend some time with Emma once again, and also to payback that massage he got from Deb. Among many other events.

2022-01-19 18:46:56 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Today I want to announce a few planned changes to the way “Nothing is Forever” will be distributed/funded. These changes aim to increase fairness to patrons, and game exposure.
1. Anyone that has pledged a total amount of 20€ (or the equivalent of tier 4 in your local currency) will get access to the most recent update whether they remain a patron or not.
I think anyone that supported the game to that extent deserves to get perm...
2022-01-11 13:20:37 +0000 UTC View PostSometimes it’s hard to come up with a title for a new chapter. Not this time. As soon as I started writing chapter 3, the right title immediately came to my mind.
And a couple more teaser images:

Overview:
It’s time to look at chapter 2 poll results. Once again, one should be careful interpreting too much from a sample of just around 30-40 votes. But it’s always fun to see what are your favorite choices, and a good 1st indication if there are some problems to solve.

2021-11-12 22:03:56 +0000 UTC View PostAs mentioned in a previous posts, while receiving feedback from players one of the problems I’ve found was that some players can become too focused on the strategy side of gathering the points for their preferred kinks, and that becomes detrimental for the roleplay experience.
To fight this, I’ve created some alternative options to play the game. Now, in the skills menu, there’s an opti...
2021-11-10 10:15:09 +0000 UTC View PostOne of the feedback I’ve gotten was that Lea’s scene wasn’t working very well for cunning players without enough points for the Exhibitionism skill.
In other words, to have access to Lea’s lewd scene in chapter 2, you need to prove to her that you’re a genuinely good guy she can trust, or else she will have doubts about exploring that new found side of hers with you.
And that’s the whole idea behind the skill system: you can only get some skill if your personality is c...
2021-11-10 10:15:05 +0000 UTC View PostAs some of you might know, last weekend Nothing is Forever was leaked in a big pirate site. This made it so Chapter 2 was played by a big number of players for the first time. While you guys are here because you already really enjoy the game as it currently is, it is still important to pay attention on how new players interact with the game and it’s systems, and if it is an enjoyable experience for them.
Comments and reviews were generally quite positive. ...

Some of the girls had way more screen time than others, so this poll will be quite skewed in favor of some. It’s just an initial estimation of how popular or not some girls are. It will be interesting to see how this changes in a couple chapters.
You can vote in how many girls you want. Choices are shown in the same order as in the Banner (in case you forgot any names already :p) 2021-10-31 09:08:35 +0000 UTC View Post
PS: Btw, I’m just realizing that this choice would probably be better fitted for an Honorable (tell him), or cunning (don’t tell him) dichotomy. What do you think?
The sensitive choice was meant to represent the player being subservient to Kim and do what she asked. But a core facet of Sensitive choices is caring about other people and that should probably include not hide th...
2021-10-31 09:08:24 +0000 UTC View PostOverview:
This first round of poll results was quite informative. One needs to be careful looking at this because it's just around 30 players answering and that's a very small number. For example, on itch.io, this 1st chapter was download for free more than 11000 times.
On the other hand, these answers came from supporters of the game and are, therefore, worth more than the opinion of some guy that randomly downloaded a free game online.

While developing a game, it is very interesting to know what choices players make. This helps me understand which paths have more interest, which girls are more popular, or which kinks have more enthusiasts. In a perfect world, all options of a given choice would be taken by a similar amount of players. If, instead, 95% of the people take one of the options, then, it just shows that the second option was not interesting/enticing enough and I should reevaluate how I am doing things.
So, ...

Note: there have been 3 new patrons today! I understand that you can feel a bit annoyed for pledging to tier 2 to get access to the newest update, when, if you had waited just a few hours, you’d have had access to the update for a lower price. If you feel bad for that and want a refu...

2021-10-16 09:37:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Unfortunately, version 0.2.0 had a few bugs that need to be corrected. The most annoying one is that renpy thinks you have seen all the text in the game and options like skipping all already seen text do not work properly. This is because I made a dumb mistake and uploaded that version with some of my settings. When you play it, they will be loaded as your own settings and the game thinks you have already seen the same dialogue as me (which is virtually all of it). I’m re...
2021-10-16 09:36:26 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a big update and I’m still afraid that it was not properly tested. I understand that now I don’t have the luxury to spend 2 weeks testing and reading everything again and again like I did with Chapter 1, but it’s still scary to release an update that might have bugs.
I’m also worried with lack of proofreading. The truth is that I’m not an English native speaker, and it often times shows. For chapter 1, I had the generous help of a player that proofread most of the chap...

This was a fun scene to write. Our MC is having some deserved fun. You all know that he has had his down moments recently, but, hopefully, he’s starting to catch a break.
I still need to:
Dear patrons,
I don't think I did a very good job when deciding which tiers have voting power. It seems a bad idea to lock votes to higher patrons since the majority of you are from the lower tiers and I would like to take all of your opinions into account. This was also pointed to me by one of you.
So, I propose to change to a system like this.
