Progress Update 1:

Had a break through of a much better version of the story I wanted to tell. Which caused me to scrap almost the entire last idea and am currently writing out this one.

Progress Update 2:

I apologize if the frequent updates is annoying anyone, I wasn't planning on doing them so frequently this time.


General Story - STATUS CHANGE - Reset -
Realized that the concept and story was garbage. Felt like an old tease formula or not what I wanted. Starting from scratch.It's not going to be another "Complete this competition" type story this time, so it's a bit more complex. I don't want to release a forced story because then it just wouldn't be good.

Actual Tease Creation - STATUS CHANGE - In Progress - Full production will begin next week when I have time off, I'm hoping to get a lot of it done. Half of it is my minimum goal.

Looking good buddy - I'm here all the way and, may I add, DAAAAAAMN!

Hahaha, I know!
Thanks for the motivation!

Production Update #1:

110 pages done.
These 110 pages is the prologue alone.

I know back when I launched Pressure II I said that if I made Pressure III it would be no where near as long as Pressure II.
It's looking like it's going to be WAY longer than Pressure II. (EDIT: I forgot to consider the multiple paths, so not twice as long, but twice as big.)
I could have gone the easy route with the story, but it wouldn't have been as good.
Hopefully it will be appreciated when I finally release it in a month or two.
i warn you now, it's not going to be anything like the other two.
It''s going to be very different and possibly at times a little weird.
And it definitely just won't be a stroke-fest anymore, depending on your choices

Can't wait

Production Update #2:

Just finished cleaning up the Prologue and rewriting the final encounter in the Prologue.
Have great ideas for Act I, currently getting specific photos for it and will start making Act 1 soon.

Production Update #3:

251 Pages Done.
Taking a break now.
Will do more later tonight.

Production Update #4:

Announcement: Considering the new size for the tease I have decided to NOT make a gender option for the tease. Instead I will be making a side tease in the Pressure universe where you play as a woman. The tease will be specifically for women! While making Pressure and Pressure II I never even considered the woman of this site (Sorry Ladies ). I think it's time for me to do something for them.

290 Pages done
I keep getting more and more ideas to expand the tease causing it to grow more and more.
Current estimation for finished product is around 2000+ pages and 1900 images.
Act I alone is coming around to be the size of Pressure II.
I don't know the precise limits of Nyx, but I'm going to push them.

Consider splitting the tease to acts. Often is better to do few normal size teases than 1 extra big.... :)

Thanks for the advice!
I've considered that.
I considered it for Pressure II as well.
The advice I got was what made me not do that.
The advice I got was that creating a Tease in parts eventually makes it feel like an obligation and has a higher chance of never getting a conclusion. It also could lower the quality.
Plus I'm a little OCD so I would prefer all ratings and views to be on one tease to know how I'm doing overall.
Then the Feedback forum is there to criticize certain parts.
There will be an option in the beginning to jump to the start of any Act.
Edit:
Also, I've been forcing myself to refer to it as "size" or "big" rather than "length" or "long" because this tease has parts with exploration in it, with multiple paths. Meaning the length will depend on where you decide to go.
