[LOG 05-13-2025]

Hello! Fantasia here, just a small update from how I'm doing!

I just got back from travelling heck-a-ton and now I'm currently suffering a flu and slowly recovering but I want to share some minimal progress. So far I've only been fixing the game's overall code, making sprite input easier for me and adding more options and dialogue during day 1.

There's still a lot of work for me to do considering half of the code I did had minimal ...

POST [ 04/01/2025] UTC+8 No, this isn't an April Fool's Joke

Hello everyone! This post is just a short update about me, the game's development and along with a few boundaries I'd like to set for Patreon and in general.

First of all, I hope everyone enjoyed the little gag game "Rizz the Wolf" especially for Geo simps, but I did not make that for the sake of April Fool's alone, I made that as practice and I've been learning new stuff and polishing my methods in coding. To the people who aren't awar...

FULL CGS for Rizz The Wolf

I say when it's April Fools when it's April Fools.
But I hope you guys enjoyed the little April Fools gag game I made! I've been making this, trying to rekindle my motivation on working on my game because there are times where I get really sick of looking at the same code or I get really unmotivated to work.

I did not make a CG album since I was already rushing the game. NOTE THIS IS FILLED WITH SPOILERS SO PLEASE PLAY THE GAG GAME B...

[ Hold up, let me Cook ]

Hello! I'm still in hiatus + very slow progress on the main game and I don't wanna force content out when I couldn't think of anything, seriously I need motivation to write.

Also, again I feel bad not posting anything here so here's a small teaser? I guess? it's not related to the main game whatsoever (it is pure crack promise) and I am merely just playing with renpy and more assets that I managed to search up.

Also not sure if I'...

1ST ANNIVERSARY | FUTURE PLANS & PROGRESS

On this day, "The Kid at the Back", a dark thriller Visual Novel made by fantasia_kitt was released a year ago.

Hello! Fantasia here, with a quick devlog.

First and foremost, Happy Anniversary 'The Kid at the Back'! I did not expect my very first visual novel to get this much recognition and up until now I am still not used to the attention, it just feels really baffling! I would like to thank everyone ...

[ SCRAPPED CGS ]

When I tell you it's hard to draw intimate scenes, it's really REALLY hard to draw them especially if you want to keep your MC quite anonymous (I hope people aren't bothered by the little design on the MC during the update)

But this was during the Arcade scene. First picture, Sol looks more  blank rather than devastated, how he's more scared than the MC (clearly, he is already plotting something bad during this time.)

Hello fellow Soulmates and Patreons! I'm still currently in my little semi-hiatus and I've been enjoying my break but I do miss drawing so I'm trying to get back to drawing. Saw this little thing that I never got to finished and wanted to just tease it here!

The Kid at the Back is almost about to hit one year and it's honestly quite surprising how big it has gotten throughout the months, we've went through ups and downs but at the end I ...

Changes to Patreon soon + Future Days

Will make changes to my Patreon membership soon (maybe reducing it from 300 members to 250 or 200 members, the price will remain the same) but for now it's fine that people won't subscribe to me/end their sub since I'll be on a semi-hiatus right after tomorrow.

I want to focus on writing now and continue on Days 3-7. The reason for my delay besides the rewrite is the amount of UI changes and additional pages I made:

I'm assuming everyone knows when's the next release update for TKaTB but for those who don't know it'll be on the 4th on November.

However, for paid patreons (Soulmates), your release will be a the day before Nov 4 so please look forward to Nov. 3!

For Soulmates, I'll be posting both the NSFW and SFW here in Patreon before itch's release on the 4th of November.

Short and quick update! New scenarios are finally edited and reviewed by my sweet editor, all i need to do is to stitch the needed codes and draw the last remaining assets in game. I still have stuff to write down in the Glossary section but story wise, script is done!

I hope to get this all done by Nov 1 at least but I don't feel quite confident yet and might get sudd...

Some new and improved Character page! For now I'll only showcase Hyugo's information! Also, full body images finally!? Who managed to got his shoes correctly?

I have yet to add some basic Background information for each characters along with drawing the relationship chart while the last are just my comments (high chance it's going to be changed or removed but we'll see)

Everything is still in development so things seen here might ...

This page is still a work in progress along with the character's page and terms like anything about the school, the world, the hierarchy is going to be part of it too! Each term will be added depending on the routes taken and will be unlocked afterwards.

As for the character profiles, everyone's basic description will be added in along with their full name...

Just a quick teaser for you dear soulmates ft. our two beloved Love Interest!

One of the new CGs with Crowe's new scenario and minor scene added/rewritten with Sol's first meeting in the classroom.

I've been working well with the new Day 1 and a few rewrites in Day 2 (but not that much unlike Day 1) and here's one of the new contents to be shown in the new Day 1.

Just wanted to post this here since I'll be out next week aga...

I feel so giddy right now, I've paused Day 3's progress to polish Day 1 & 2, this time giving Crowe the spotlight he deserves as the second love interest, which means, besides the new scenarios and rewriting of the old scenes, he gets to have his own gallery now! Do you guys like it?

This next big update is going to be Crowe centered, I'm so happy how he's turning out and I hope people will fall in love with him as I did writing him...

Faces worth not remembering (NEW NPC SPRITES)

Suggested by my main Editor, since these guys will keep reoccurring within the game, might as well make sprites for them and that people can now finally picture them properly!

Hello beloved Soulmates! I apologize for the inactivity! I wasn't able to work on the game due to me taking a full month break touching grass and socializing (my graduation, my friends' graduation and vacation).

"Oh come on Geo! Lighten up a bit! Plus the lighting's perfect here!"

"You hit that shutter one last time and I'm breaking your new camera into pieces."

Deryl pouted at Geo's disinterest with the device as he kept snapping photos around him. He leaned on the railing then checked the photo he just took and smiled to himself.

[ SOL'S SPRITE BETA ]

Before everything, the game was suppose to be a quick 30 minute game where you'd try to befriend a lonely classmate in your class, so I ended up rendering a sprite for him like this one. I eventually ended up scrapping this since it means I have to render multiple pieces with THAT artstyle (hurts my hand fr).

Yes Sol has a green chain, it's still on his current sprite but I didn't bother to render it.

Hello Soulmates!

Second post here in Patreon and I would just like to share a short update that I have came up early this month.

As some of you know, Day 3's progress has been on a delay due to my internship and Graduation, but since I'm back (and basically jobless lol) I've decided to turn my projects into my own job.
