We’re happy to announce that the Kickstarter for our next yuri visual novel, At Your Feet 2, is live since the end of May!

Now, before we get into more details, I want to answer an obvious question: what about Glamour Photographer? Well, things are going well! I’ve finished the game (of course will need some testing) and the reason why we’re launching this Kickstarter is simple: to optimize time.

Because right now the team of animators is working on adding all animations to the game. In particular, extra characters added later during development, the spiritual guides, etc. And also, the… ahem, “intimate scenes” (you know what I mean). Of course not all of them otherwise finishing the game would take 3 years (there are over 150 comic CGs!!!) but we’re aiming at around 3-4 animated events for each model which is definitely great, but still takes a good amount of time.

So in summary: I’m doing this Kickstarter so I can already start producing content for At Your Feet 2 while the animations are being added to Glamour Photographer. You know I don’t like to remain idle!

At Your Feet 2 game

I’ve already hinted a bit about this game in the past, but now I’ll go into more detail. First of all, the game will be a comedy, but a different kind from Glamour Photographer, which had some really absurd moments (the spiritual guides appearing, Filippo constantly triggering hilarious situations, etc.). The comedy here will be more subtle and refined, and it will revolve mainly around Linda, the main character.

While Emma from the first game was a sort of disaster — shy about her kink, a bit clumsy — Linda is an interesting contradiction. She looks confident on the outside, but inside her mind there’s pure chaos: she’s constantly overanalyzing everything. After all, she’s a psychology student, and she’s convinced every glance, every gesture, every micro-expression has some deeper meaning. The best comedy comes from her inner monologue: the gap between the composed adult she’s trying to be and the feral, dirty-minded brain that keeps betraying her.

Adding Tommy, her best friend since childhood, makes the whole thing even funnier. Tommy is the only person in Linda’s life who knows about her kink, and he happens to be into feet as well. So throughout the story, whenever a “foot situation” arises, the two exchange knowing glances, tease each other, and play off the secret only they share.

The fact that Tommy is still hopelessly convinced he has a shot with Linda adds another layer to the dynamic. Don’t worry, though! Tommy will have his own moments with Paige, Linda’s ex, who is also coming to Trigue… specifically to chase after him.

And what about the three love interests?

Jennifer — The ultimate extrovert. If there’s a party, she IS the party. A bisexual, polyamorous free spirit and unapologetic exhibitionist who treats every outfit like a performance. Chaotic on the surface, but more thoughtful underneath than people give her credit for, and the one most likely to push Linda outside her comfort zone.

Rose — A wealthy, prim-and-proper “good girl” from a strict family, on her first solo holiday and ready to slip the leash. Soft-spoken, easily flustered, with a clear submissive streak that only emerges once she feels safe. A locked garden quietly hoping someone will find the key, and her arc from blushing newcomer to confident woman is one of the most rewarding parts of the story.

Alex — The sultry singer from Summer in Trigue, returning in a timeline where she never got together with Sybil. Magnetic, commanding, in full control of every room she walks into, but the femme fatale persona is partly a mask. Underneath the dominance is someone who cares, ferociously, about the people she lets close.

The current draft of the story that I’ve been working on and off since the beginning of the year is already around 60,000 words and I suspect the final game will surpass the 100,000 words (so will be much bigger than the first title).
