SERENA NEXT
June 25, 2020SERENA IS GOING TO COME BACK
Living with Serena got many endings. Some of them were typical happy endings, where you spend the rest of your life with beloved Serena, some of them were bad endings, for instance when you were caught on cheating.
We’ve decided to focus on one ending in particular – when you fall in love with Nicole and Serena, with broken heart, left you. She not only left your apartment but also your country and you’ve completely lost the trace of her. After many months she is going to come back to your life and this is the moment when everything starts to complicate.
Our next Serena game is going to be something absolutely new. Seriously! This game will be so different from everything we’ve developed so far – we’re taking a big step into unknown with confidence you gonna fall in love with it from the first sight.
MULTIPLE NARRATORS
For the first time you’ll experience our game from various perspectives. What does it mean? That you’ll control not only Julian’s but also… almost every other character in game. Yes, you’ll have direct control over Serena, Jade and other persons. Thanks to that, you’ll have a chance to understand the motivation of every single character, make choices the way you like and witness their personal life – see how they are living, what is they daily routine, who are they meeting with and what are their dreams.
ADVENTURE BASED GAMEPLAY
This game is not going to be dating sim any more. So we put grinding, repetitive actions and stats to take care aside. Expect only the essence of building relationships with other characters. This game will be constructed from bricks – every brick is the narrative scene with choices to make. You could feel the consequence of your decision during this scene or even 5-8 scenes later. Between those bricks we’ll have adventure game based elements – as a Nicole you’ll have a chance to interact with your kitchen, enter the living room and for instance try your sexy clothes from your closet. Just for fun. Then you can pick up the phone and initiate the narrative scene by performing predefined action.
CHARACTERS YOU CARE ABOUT
Next to the characters known from the previous Serena game, we’ll introduce a lot of new characters with unique personalities, desirable appearance and goals. Because you have a chance to control those characters you’ll get close to them. You’ll love to control some of them and hate when we’ll give you a possibility of guiding others. It’s going to be a lot of fun.
LIVING ORGANISM
We plan to update this game with new scenes and events for many months after the original release. There are so many events and characters I want to add to the base version of the game. With this game structure, adding new elements is very simple and nothing limits us here. So as long as you want to get updates, we’ll be ready to provide them.
STORY
The most important part of this venture – element that binds everything together. We promise a lot of emotions – getting back to old characters you know and flirting with the new ones. Is the past going to catch Serena? What happened when she wasn’t part of Julian’s life? What is her secret? Is Julian willing to come back to her or is he going to close that chapter in his life? What kind of new kinks lure behind the next corner?
I’m so thrilled to let you know more but it’s to early for that.
UPDATE TO OUR UNITY ENGINE
One more thing – today we’re introducing a new feature to our on-line games – preloading images in the background. Thanks to that solution when you start the game, all single images and animations start to download from our server in the background, and when this process is done, game will take them from your local cache which mean no more waiting for our servers to deliver required pictures. Process of downloading all images will take a while but during that process you can play the game as before – with needed images downloaded from our servers on demand.
What does it mean?
- much seamless experience, without the need of waiting for new images and animations to download from our servers which could affect the immersion,
- opportunity to use much better quality images cause the images size and related to that loading time won’t matter that much as before.

Seems decent enough. An improvement for sure. A skip button for text and/or scenes would be nice too. So one can get better to the branching story parts.
Amazing news! Both of them!
The option to play as more than one character is something I always wanted. It could’ve made Tracy’s and Serena’s cheating scenes on their games much more arousing.
I’m really curious about this step you’ll take with Serena. I hope it’ll be successful.
With the right guidance, meaning my own, it will be…
I’m glad.
Because I always feel that when you play your games in full screen you just lose so much quality in the pictures. With LWT2 it’s very obvious, and such a shame. I would pay money to access all images in a game in high quality.
Such wonderful new! I know you guys don’t like giving a time frame which is understandable as many things come into play, but if any time estimate can be expressed that would be great. As in, Do you see this new project / new game with Serena coming within this year’s end or with in a year’s time? Do you see it getting completed with in six to nine months or are we talking in a matter of a few years to look forward too? Any time goal would be helpful to look forward to more which I know it is no guarantee with time frames, but knowing if this will come before the year’s end or the beginning of next year or next summer (not this one) that would be great. Thank you sharing this news and for all that you have and continue to do in all the games. Thank you for taking the feedback of many and using it some. Thank you for all your hard work always.
I don’t believe in deadlines or constraints when it comes to my work. So try your best to show some form of restraint, and perhaps good things will come to you in the end…
Is this game something you are considering other game projects on doing like an updated Living with Temptation game. Are there going to be more updates to that game or are you considering another Living with Temptation game similar to this idea next? The same with some other games like Like Lilly in Hawaii or Eleanor again or Living with Lana? Any plans for this as well being done?
Great news! Can’t wait for more Serena and Jade.
Sounds like your best game ever is approaching 🙂 !
I don’t know anyone who has eyes that can see that far into the future, but I am inclined to agree with you…
Multiple narrators, multiple points of views, adventure game play… All is promissing. I’m in !
I am not really fan of Serena game(for me Veronica>Serena) and I am not excited to control more than 1 character(only 1 male mc). I just finished playing Under the black bunner(10/10 awesome game), and hope for more games like this, games that feature wide variety of fetishes(for me its maledom, lesbian and bdsm, I haven’t found this in serena games) for everyones taste and have interesting background(maybe in fantasy world with magic or age of pirates). Anyway thanks for good work dev
At least you are not like other sheep who clamor to things they do not prefer. I do not desire to share what I am doing with this title, but rest assured, there will be subtle style changes in terms of intimacy and “kink,” as you call it. I will say no more and allow for your imagination to run wild…
I love it! Ambitious and very interesting, I love the multiple narrators idea and the expandability of the concept.
That would be worth keeping a subscription for- a couple of games with rolling updates of some type always on the way.
I hope this works as well as it looks like it can- it is an innovation that could really further separate you guys from the other adult games makers out there if you can pull it off.
Good luck and I’m looking forward to it!
i don’t really like the idea of control more that one character. i believe with feel more like a book than a video game
I think this is a good point. This concept sounds interesting, and all credit to the team for wanting to do something new, but as a game, I think it risks falling short. To put it bluntly, I am not here for the story.
The new Serena game sounds awesome, love all your ideas and I’m really looking forward to it.
It would be great if you could remake Lily in Hawaii with Unity, that way we will still be able to play it (especially with Flash end of life at the end of the year), it’s one of my favorite game and one of my favorite character.
Thanks for all your great work.
Hope we can see Nicole as soon as possible! She’s the best character for me.
I’d rather play from a single point of view per game than multiple points of view. Point of views from people other than the MC could be put in a gallery you can access in the main menu. A sequel to a game where you play through the original game from another person’s perspective would be interesting, but having multiple points of view in a single game could be jarring and also dilute the game. I’d be more in favor of it if the player had full control over when the switching took place.
Where this concept may work though is in a sequel to Sensual Haunting (or remake). I always thought it would be interesting in that game to have the ghost be able to possess people in order to leave the house. At first you just “ride along” and watch someone through their eyes, but as you get more powerful you can subtly control their actions, then eventually get to the point where you can outright take control of them.
