- Mori 7 // 0.22.5 Minor Bugfix - 4 June 2026
- Fixed a bug that left Mori's chapter 6 unlocked even with new game
- Route Endings and Pricing - 1 June 2026
I’ve made a point of discussing the future of TCM regarding pricing, and after a lot of deliberation, I have decided to charge for the full release of the game. This past year has been incredibly stressful as a global shift has made adult content creation incredibly difficult. Traditionally stable marketplaces for 18+ content have been fraught with chaotic TOS changes, bans, and delistings to a degree I’ve literally never seen or even imagined before. Things got so bad that TCM actually got delisted on itch.io and can no longer be monetized there for the foreseeable future. Steam has, so far, been able to hold stronger, but it’s clear that adult content is on the chopping block. In essence, the change comes as a direct result of this push to deplatform adult content, as it has created too much uncertainty for me to safely release an 18+ commercial game that relies on long-term ancillary…
- Mori 7 // Minor Patch - 30 May 2026
Fixes a syntax bug in Amir's mind control choices in chapters 1 and 5
- Mori 7 // Achievement Issue Patch - 27 May 2026
Hello friends! This update fixes an issue where Steam Achievements stopped syncing and the Unlock Everything mod stopped working. The root cause was some critical Steam helper files missing from my game engine- and also the build. Things should be working now, happy achievement hunting!
- Mori 7 // Minor Bugfix - 24 May 2026
Fixed a small error that caused intermittent crashes in Akello 3's sex scene decision tree.Added a missing period in Amir's intro chapter
- Mori 7 is Here! - 23 May 2026
Mori chapter 7 is here and the stakes have never been higher!There's been a lot of housekeeping behind the scenes so here's a quick changelog.Firstly, due to the way RenPy creates save data, save files can become unusable if I make edits to the precise line of code your game used as a save point. If you find yourself with crashes when you try to load a save file, the fastest and most stable solution is to simply make a new save. Thankfully, I have tried to make it as easy as possible to return to your last point. In the Options menu, check the "Skip Unread Text" box and start a new game. You'll be able to use the Skip button to fast forward through everything except choices. Now, the good news is that I haven't run into this during bug/beta testing, but I have made a lot of code edits recently and am being vigilant about any issues that may crop up. ːespressoːBut wait there's more!- Sec…
- 0.21.2 // Achievement Tweak - 12 March 2026

- TCM is Steam Deck Verified! - 22 February 2026

- Amir 7 // 0.21.1 Bugfix - 11 February 2026
This update fixes a "title not defined" error when the player right clicks or hits esc in game, these actions will now bring up the save menu. Thank you very much to the people who let me know, this fix was a little more intense than I expected! As always, thank you for you playing + your patience ːcousin_ichigoː
- Finally time for AMIR 7! - 9 February 2026
Thank yall for being so patient while I took a couple months to deal with some back-end stuff!!! The holidays were very busy for me, and I hope you survived the winter despite the general state of the world at large!My primary focus over the last few months was rounding out a really robust controller support system for TCM that exceeds what Ren’Py (the game’s engine) can natively do. As in my last update, I’d like to give a very earnest shout-out to Feniks- a prolific Ren’Py developer who found time in their busy schedule to help me with some persistent bugs. Their help was really invaluable as I’m a writer/designer/artist first and a programmer second, if that, honestly. If any of you are Ren’Py devs yourselves, I can’t recommend them or their (usually free) plugins highly enough. You can check out my changelog in the TCM discussion forum for a full list of what’s been worked on, but t…
- 2026 "State of Things" Devlog - 11 January 2026
So it's January, and the base game is getting close to wrapping up. I know I mentioned the complexities and issues I’ve been having with controller support and that’s the primary reason chapter releases have been delayed. However, it’s now 2026, and I thought it would be a good idea to have a little “State of Things” style devlog to show my broader roadmap for TCM, where we’re currently at, and what I’d like to accomplish this year, so without further ado:The Base Game is Nearing CompletionMori, Amir, and Akello are getting very close to wrapping up their routes, which means that the TCM is nearing completion for what I call the ‘base game’. Before the finished base game is released, I want to have completed the following:Full controller support and related bugs fixedFull game script edit from beginning to endFinal pass for polish opportunitiesOnce these things are taken care of, TCM wi…
- Chapter Scheduling + TCM Merch - 10 November 2025
Happy November! First order of business- Amir's Chapter 7 was slated to come towards the end of the month, but I've decided to push it back. I've had a ton on my plate over the last few weeks with implementing full controller support, building a website, and setting up a storefront, and to ensure everything stays top quality, I wanted to space it out a bit. I'll keep y'all updated with the new release date in the coming weeks, so please stay tuned and thank you for your understanding! ːStarwhalPinkːNext! I still have some product from TCM's Kickstarter, and I'm looking to clear out some office space so I can work on getting new products in a permanent storefront! If you're interested in pillow cases, 3D mousepads, or acrylic standees, please take a look! Be warned, I have SUPER limited quantities, so don't wait if you've really wanted something. You can check out the inventory here: htt…
