Life happened and it got delayed a bit. I am becoming a father for the first time in a month :) It is currently being worked on. Because my work slowed a bit due to the new RL circumstances... I felt that it would not have enough content for season 2. It should be coming early 2024.
However, if you just communicate that to us ahead of time, we are fine with it. BTW, congrats on becoming a Dad. It is a life changing event. But now you need to work even harder to make sure the li8ttle one has what he or she needs. In the meantime, you need to finish the steam version for your followers over there. God bless
It does not upset me, in any way. However, this was a biweekly like all the rest, and this update had content for Alice, Melissa, and Aiko. I am currently releasing the Brenda update to very early-access patrons.
In case people start asking "Where is the new content in 2.0!?" This build contains new content for those who chose to end the night with Alice during the previous builds movie night with the three girls. There is also content for Karishma trans&female. Melissa and Aiko or coming with the following two builds.
You are never charged for the same version of the game. What you paid for, is yours. The version keeps changing and content keeps being added. I place the game on sale in order to make a living, and continue working on the rest of it. You can either buy it here, support it through Patreon or wait until the game is finished, as you pointed out. Version 1.5 is free.
If you go to itch website you will see on a previously payed for game if its payed for then you can press download and download newest version you dont pay twice for a game you own
Even doe i have been playing orginal the shrink (completed it) and is now waiting and owning both the relased full version of the shrink R&R and the early access version i have to give major credits to onemanVN for improvements from orginal shrink. 1 the clones major improvements both in terms of their intro and in the silent intro (no random scream this time luckely) Considering i talked to you on discord and wanted to know the model name of the clones on ren'py so i could use same model in my own visual novels when i have afford to start ( discord name red order , currently purple dawn red order) I am going to buy this game on steam as well if i ever see it their and plan on buying all your games. hopefully. Keep up the good works And i hope you expand outside of visual novels. someday considering i hope to use clones of some kind in my own games inspired heavily by the shrinks clone ideas. Keep up the good work
For those who can't afford to pay, or are willing to wait, I always give a free version of the previous build (1.3 in this example) a month after the release over on my Discord.
If you notice, the 1.4 has been on sale since the price for it was 30$ nearly 2 weeks ago. It is not my fault that you missed it. However, I am not a bloodsucker.
To clarify... I am simply trying to make a living, and I do not hold a gun to anybody's head to purchase my product(s).
I do appreciate you, and whoever else decides to support me. So, I will send you a link to the 1.4. The next time, please check if the newer version is on early access, and or on sale. Since I always start dropping the price of the previous version as the newer one is about to go "public" which means out of early access, and on sale/bundles. Or just ask me directly if you are unsure. Just email me from the account you made the purchase with.
Hey man, sorry I didn't mean to attack you in any way, I was just saying I was very unlucky in buying the bundle just the day before the bundle was updated with the latest version of the game. I appreciate you taking the time to answer and your proposal but there's no need as I will continue to support you in the future. Cheers ^^
Hey OnemanVN will the price eventually for the Shrink R&R drop to $10 or there abouts? Asking because the previous version, the shrink 0.8 did and i just bought that one before R&R released, but now I don't see the price dropping for the 1.3 version.
Yes. The price will drop sometime soon and the sale will be replaced by the 1.4 version for the month. Also, the current sale is only 15$ for 1.3 and everything else in it. Otherwise, wait for the next week's sale with 1.4 in it.
Early access means exactly what it sounds like. You gain access to builds way before they are made available for everyone. The biweekly builds take a month to be added to the main build. So, you can get the content without early access, just later on on the main build.
Weird... I'll double-check it. I just checked it and it does work. Maybe there was an extra space somewhere that caused it? Idk, I simply repasted the same exact link.
The game is great, but what I wanted to comment on was the way you are offering your games here. Seems to me like a fair way to not upset your supporters yet offer the public the chance to get the early access the Patrons get. Respectable job, I hope it works out for you and others who will follow.
Thank you for the feedback, Hawkeye. I really appreciate it. I try to be fair while at the same time, making a living. This was the best way I could get both of those things done without upsetting my monthly supporters, and giving those out there who still wish to support me a chance to do so outside of Patreon.
Also, I am glad you enjoy the game. Have a great rest of the weekend.

2.5 is out in early access.
hi when will 2.5 be out
2.5 is on the way. It is currently on very early access, on SS. It will hopefully be out end of this month, or at the latest early next one.
is the second season of the shrink coming to steam this year by chance. Your last post said around october maybe.
Life happened and it got delayed a bit. I am becoming a father for the first time in a month :) It is currently being worked on. Because my work slowed a bit due to the new RL circumstances... I felt that it would not have enough content for season 2. It should be coming early 2024.
It is coming soon. Hopefully, this month if STEAM doesn't delay me too much with the review.
Okay, I Understand delays for various reasons.
However, if you just communicate that to us ahead of time, we are fine with it. BTW, congrats on becoming a Dad. It is a life changing event. But now you need to work even harder to make sure the li8ttle one has what he or she needs. In the meantime, you need to finish the steam version for your followers over there. God bless
This build contains TOM and Trifecta content with Brenda trans. The female version comes next update.
dev i feel like we need bigger updates just saying hopefully this doesn't upset you but yeah its just what bugs me rn
It does not upset me, in any way. However, this was a biweekly like all the rest, and this update had content for Alice, Melissa, and Aiko. I am currently releasing the Brenda update to very early-access patrons.
Why release v2.1 to normal link but here in early access version is still 2.0?
Meaning this version will not update anymore?
2.1 skipped early access since it was delayed. 2.2 is out now in EA. Content for Alice, Aiko, and Melissa on their path is available.
In case people start asking "Where is the new content in 2.0!?" This build contains new content for those who chose to end the night with Alice during the previous builds movie night with the three girls. There is also content for Karishma trans&female. Melissa and Aiko or coming with the following two builds.
Nice!! Thanks.
Hey VM, is this the story continuation of The ShriNk? (I really loved that game)
its a remake of the original
oh nice, thank you
is 1.9 will be update here?
Yes. It is coming very soon. Maybe this Monday.
to much for the game
It's early access. The price goes down gradually until release.
but I have payed earlyer for a part. like I mostly do with other game. and then in the end when the game is done I pay for the rest

You don't own the game... You can own the game if the developer allows full ownership of the game. You own only what version you paid for.
And as I have stated many times. It's here for those who want it.
true
Even doe i have been playing orginal the shrink (completed it) and is now waiting and owning both the relased full version of the shrink R&R and the early access version i have to give major credits to onemanVN for improvements from orginal shrink. 1 the clones major improvements both in terms of their intro and in the silent intro (no random scream this time luckely) Considering i talked to you on discord and wanted to know the model name of the clones on ren'py so i could use same model in my own visual novels when i have afford to start ( discord name red order , currently purple dawn red order) I am going to buy this game on steam as well if i ever see it their and plan on buying all your games. hopefully.

I bought the bundle yesterday with the 1.3 in it and today there's the 1.4...
Any way I can have access to the 1.4? It's really unfair...

Is this mean early access version here will not = a full release version when it upload for normal project page?
Early access means exactly what it sounds like. You gain access to builds way before they are made available for everyone. The biweekly builds take a month to be added to the main build. So, you can get the content without early access, just later on on the main build.

I can't find the link to patreon
This is my main page: https://www.patreon.com/OnemanVN It is also on my profile now. The specific game(s) Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/OnemanVNSHRiNK There is also a Patreon page for THE FATE OF MIRADOR https://www.patreon.com/Mirador
your main page doesn't work the link
Weird... I'll double-check it. I just checked it and it does work. Maybe there was an extra space somewhere that caused it? Idk, I simply repasted the same exact link.
Price match with the current 20$ tier on Patreon.
So i haven't played yet, and your game looks interesting, I'm just wondering were to see a game description? Thanks for your tame.
https://onemanvn.itch.io/the-shrink Look under the actual SHRiNK releases and not the early access builds.
That makes prefect sense, Thanks for the response!
Price match with current Patreon tier (25$ Trifecta tier)
Price changed in order to match the current Patreon EA tier.
