Dawn Chorus v0.26 - Jørgen & Torulf


Hi all, Keo here!

Finally, after the long wait, I'm coming back to you with an update that concludes Day 2. Though I struggled with this one particularly, in the end I'm happy with how both of the routes came out.  Thank you all for your patience!

Besides the new content, the update features a rework of Day 1 and some of Day 2 scenes in Jørgen's route, now separate from Lake's route. Because of that it's hard for me to estimate how many new words are in this update, but now the game is longer by 12k words than version 0.25. Other than that, I've fixed a lot of the issues and mistakes you've reported in the last two months, I hope I didn't miss anything!

Beside the writing, there are four new illustrations: one by Jandar, for Mikko's route, one by hq, for Torulf's route, one by Bakemonoy, for Torulf's route as well, and the last one by Prince, for Jørgen's route.

If you're curious about that, Torulf's route has 3 different endings, though two of them share the same last sequence. Jørgen's route at this point has one.

*vague spoilers about torulf's route*



i really like that Torulf's route addressed how this relationship, especially for a 19 YEAR OLD KID! was gonna have unbalanced dynamics with this big age difference where someone in their late twenties wants to feel "young" again, when you're unexperienced and unsure about what you want and you learn too late that you don't just want mindless sex with someone that doesn't really care abput you at all (of course some people could be completely ok with that) and just how wanting to be loved and desired can make you do things to please other people even if that's not really what YOU want

I had played every route and option to see all of the game but i was really quite uncomfortable with some of the big age gaps and torulf's especially since he's the ony one we get so intimate with so far and i'm just really glad and relieved it took the direction it did instead of maybe making this type of relationship look normal and ok or even romanticising it

i just got one of the ending of Torulf's route... rollercoaster! i feel as weird as Arvo. i'm still struggling to interprete the poems and all the sub-text...

When you say that Torulf's route has "3 different endings", does that mean that his route will split into 3 variants from here on out (similar to Shoichi from Tennis Ace), or is it just a small split here that will reconverge into one storyline?

I guess as a follow-up if Torulf's route does split; do any of the other routes have splits planned that you'd be willing to namedrop? Just trying to organise my saves a little bit, but it's no issue if it's a don't know/won't spoil type of answer here.

Torulf Spoiler
















Wait...hes a BOTTOM? dreams crushed..i really didnt expect that, well i lowkey did at the shower scene but didnt want to overthink  T^T, its fine though we still have lake....r-right? Loved the build though . The ending surprised me, so much emotion.

same energy

the way spencer only bottoms depending on your choices LOL...and no im still going to play torulf route i love him for his  story not the sex.

Ik it had surprised me too

I mean, it could technically be because that was literally Arvo's first time and Torulf didn't want to overwhelm him.

dammit im seeing this late, torulf content WOO

All I'm g going to say is I LOVED IT I had multiple mental breakdowns at the ends of both route especially torulf's route they were both emotional rollercoasters they both have their happy parts and their sad parts and the scene with torulf was very well done as is all of the game this is honestly one of my favorite VN's I love it so much and I can't wait to see the finished product and tell your team to keep up the good work for me and you keep up the good work too I hope you have a good rest of your day/night (I live in the us so idk what time it is for you but it's currently night for me)

I played what´s up so far of Torulf and i thinks that should be 4 continuations since 2 endings are the same but the days before are so differents one frome another. It´s just what I thinks and I don´t know what did you have in mind but I thought that i could say my thoughts for this.
I´m enjoying this FVN so much and I´m waiting for a new update for Rune. ^^

Same. Rune is by far my favorite.
