Hey, folks!
Most of you should've played v0.7.9 by now. So tell me, what are your thoughts about the alchemy minigame? Was it fun? Was it frustrating? Have you liked the rewards?
Would you like to see more like it in the future? Focus training minigame, fridge search minigame, maybe even dating minigames. All skippable, of course, but with some minor rewards for completing them.

Early Access is coming next week, Blair's quest should be ready as well as the new animated intros to Cait's friends' dreams. Took our sweet time with them, but this whole quest turned out to be pretty big. Usually our quests are done in 2-3 events, and this one is more like 7 scenes in length. Blair's new quest is going to be pretty sizable as well.
Rae's FJ remaster is the only sex scene in the update, but we'll make up for it in September and October.
I made a decision to take a short break from advancing all the stories. We're going to use this pause to plan the storyline for the next 8 to 10 updates, make a list of all the assets and characters we're going to need and generally prepare for the big story moves. We'll probably still do one or two story quests for one of the girls in 0.7.12, but otherwise the main body of the next update will focus on agency.
We're going to start adding more MC-initiated activities, including the solo ones: taking a shower, swimming in the pool, browsing the books in the library and more. Each activity will come with a set of unique and repeatable scenes. For example, if you have enough intimacy and lewdness points the girls will offer to join you in the shower. It won't be necessary to creep on them anymore, now they'll be creeping on you instead!
Searching for money will become more fun as well. You'll occasionally get some help from your housemates, and you'll even get to engage in a heated competition. Whoever finds the least amount of money in ten minutes loses one piece of clothing!
And that's only a few examples. We have many more plans for the next update and beyond, but I'd rather leave something for the next dev update, so.

And see you soon!
Poll question reminder:
Should we add more minigames like the alchemy one to AHitR?
