The song Ethan sings when Justin stays over... Since they're not dating and haven't even discussed being gay, it feels awkward for him to sing about having love in his heart. I know there's different kinds, but that entire scene makes me feel second-hand embarrassment and awkwardness.
In case the dev doesnt add it, you can go into the files and find the images under the folder named images. Admittably they are scattered all over the place but it might be what you are looking for.
Thanks for reply, I didn't know that; but app data isn't accessible on non-rooted Android devices. besides، They create a better experience if they are seen while reading the story.
Had to come on here to tell the developer a sincere "BLEEP YOU SO MUCH FOREVER," because I did not see the Jeremy thing coming and I hate youuuuuuuuuuuu. Omg. #justice4jeremy
Wow, I already know, you are a talented writer, but at least since the meeting with Spidey, you had me! I thought, being a writer myself, I would see through your storytelling, but you taught me better 😅
Damn, these are animated characters but with the rendering of the skin, you've outdone yourself! 👍🏻
okay, the author really fooled me with the jeremy room scene... and i cried at the end of chapter. i love jer, i really wanted him to be one of the romanceable characters.
Sorry, but after Scene with Eyal and Justin (last words 'Yeah, talk soon.') an error occures, which can't ignored. 'Ignore' jumps only to the start of the whole scene.
Help.... ;-)

Hi there. I just found this game today and really enjoy it. I noticed though that the last update was almost a year ago so is this still an active project that can be supported or is it just another good start that leads nowhere? Thanks for any input.
So I started reading Str8 and really love it! I've been talking to Aaryn almost every day the past few weeks and decided to check out your games. After reading Str8, I was a little nervous because I didn't want another story to compete with how I felt about Str8...
Well I bit the bullet and decided to read anyways. Trying to not give spoilers, I really like this too! Justin's 2nd secret is right up my alley... And it's funny that the situation going on is also going on in a show I am watching (that was pretty ironic to me)
Anyways, I am looking forward to more updates on this story. I'd love to see what happens next!
Hey, hey! It's awesome that you enjoyed Str8 so much. It was such a blast working on it with Aaryn; we had the BEST time with it! I'm glad you bit the bullet and decided to try out New Hope! It's a very different experience to Str8, and the last thing myself or Aaryn want is to be competing for space - happily co-existing <3
I saw in one of your replies that you've been watching Teen Wolf! I absolutely loved that show; Dylan O'Brien as Styles is just perfection - and the Nogitsune storyline for season 3 is the best of them all, I think.
Thank you for playing, and feel free to check out some of my other projects while you wait :) Hollow is another one of my free-to-play games, so definitely give that a try!
I agree about Teen Wolf. Void Styles was pretty epic! I'm actually finishing up the show now after the lore that is the evident in NH.
I'm also glad I bit the bullet. NH is very entertaining and definitely different from Str8. I can't wait for the updates for all of yours, Aaryn's, and Jordyn's games!
I may check out Hollow and some of the others later.
Love the story. I was wondering if there was going to be a Progress Update I had seen mentioned awhile ago. I searched the Patreon for it. I'm so anxious to see what happens!!
I don't yet have a date set for the next update. However, I'm going to look at releasing a progress update next week so everyone can see where it's at :)
Hello, I have a problem, I've tried installing the game but I can't because I have a message saying "this title is hosted on an incompatible third-party website". I'm on a windows PC and I've tried both the Gdrive and Mediafire download.
I played Straight!? and is my favorite VN game so far, this game and Theo are becoming my favorite, you really are doing an amazing job with this, between art and story, would love an kinda close end or an eventual story about the future when this ends (hopefully not soon)
This is really great. The art is fantastic, and the main draw for me initially - it's easily some of the best I've seen. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the fantasy elements, but they're very well done, and everything I disliked about Straight!? is thankfully not repeated here. Wish there was a bit more dirty stuff, but don't we all...
thank you for playing and enjoying New Hope! I try my best with the visuals, I’m going for a more cinematic vibe than the typical VN format.
I’m curious to know what it is you disliked about Str8 that isn’t repeated. It’d be great community feedback for both projects to have that insight :)
Since this is now my full time job, a majority of the NSFW content is either Patreon Exclusive, or can be found on my profile here for a small additional price. The New Hope Christmas special offers multiple NSFW scenes.
Eternity and MGU: Gayme Night are also both very NSFW :)
I don't like to bash a game a lot of work went into and a lot of people love, but the main problem for me with Str8 was the dialogue. It felt like almost every conversation was the same and, I know being a slow-burn is one of the draws, but, really, nothing happened for long stretches. Eventually I was just clicking through before I finally gave up.
New Hope has kept the introspection (and even navel gazing) and relaxed storytelling, but has stronger characterization and better audience engagement. I'm in it for the long haul - you got me, I'm gonna go sign up on your Patreon.
In regards to Str8, it started out as a point-grinding game/VN and the early chapters really, really reflect that (there is a walk-through text file in the VN's main folder that helps with that). There is a revamp underway to correct that.
No VN is without fault but some of Str8's comes from a shift in focus from the dev(s).
I am looking forward to the next update. the story is certainly unfolding in ways i genuinely was not expecting, which was a nice surprise. genuinely love it. Keep up the good work. #teamtheo
Fantastic gameso far - thank you so much! An intriguing story, well designed characters and a lot of erotic, sexy, and flirtatious material between the boys. I'm currently really into visual novels and yours is an extraordinarily carfully elaborated one. I absolutely loved Straight!? and I so far love New Hope. I always appreciate if there is an option to at least try a game out for free before spending money. If I like the game, I'm always happy to pay and in your case, given the fact that what you do is always made with love and skill, I will certainly check out your other projects.
Keep going and keep enjoying what you do - I and many others love your work!
Hi, I've been supporting Straight and love that story. I started reading yours and I've gotta say, fantastic work. Love the story and so engaging! Thank you for this. I will check out you Patreon page. You guys keep creating these awesome story's ❤️

Waiting for more. Great work.
Pls give me more Theo Brantley, I NEED MORE
Gosh this is lovely, I cannot wait to play further!
The song Ethan sings when Justin stays over... Since they're not dating and haven't even discussed being gay, it feels awkward for him to sing about having love in his heart. I know there's different kinds, but that entire scene makes me feel second-hand embarrassment and awkwardness.
Otherwise, loving this so far. Theo's my fave. <3
when will new update come？I am hungry
Hello, do you have a Discord link? Where I can better follow the next updates?
when will have update？？
Hi, I haven't finished the whole story but so far so great and I'm really looking forward to see the rest of it.
Can you add an option to Hide the text box? (like swiping down or something) So that we can enjoy the whole picture 😝
i wish you success and best of luck 🍀😘
In case the dev doesnt add it, you can go into the files and find the images under the folder named images. Admittably they are scattered all over the place but it might be what you are looking for.
Thanks for reply, I didn't know that; but app data isn't accessible on non-rooted Android devices. besides، They create a better experience if they are seen while reading the story.
I want this so it's easier to read text messages lol. Not far in the story, but I was struggling to read the texts under the text box.
wonderful story, beautiful moments.... scary as hell and absolutely amazing.
Theo is my favorite character. can´t wait for the next update... this is really great work (sry for my bad english)
Will there be another update for this game this year?? Man, I loved it 🤧...I'm so looking forward to the next one...
Yes, there will be at least one more update this year to come for New Hope :) Thanks for playing and loving the story!
i really think you should focus on this game make it your priority because the writing is phenominal. Its honestly amazing.
Had to come on here to tell the developer a sincere "BLEEP YOU SO MUCH FOREVER," because I did not see the Jeremy thing coming and I hate youuuuuuuuuuuu. Omg. #justice4jeremy
Wow, I already know, you are a talented writer, but at least since the meeting with Spidey, you had me! I thought, being a writer myself, I would see through your storytelling, but you taught me better 😅
Damn, these are animated characters but with the rendering of the skin, you've outdone yourself! 👍🏻
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the game and my writing! <3
So were gonna have to wait a whole year just for the next update? Just found out about game recently and immediately fell in love with theo.
okay, the author really fooled me with the jeremy room scene... and i cried at the end of chapter. i love jer, i really wanted him to be one of the romanceable characters.
i'm really depressed now
hey thanks for playing! I’m not sure which character you’re talking about though… I don’t recall their being a Jeremy in New Hope 🫡
i'm crying, don't do this 😭😭😭
Can I play this game on my Iphone?
it is not possible to download the 0.6 version file on android
Hey :) I’ve not had any other reports of an issue with the file. What exactly is the error you’re getting?
It makes me cry
the end was Sad
Sorry, but after Scene with Eyal and Justin (last words 'Yeah, talk soon.') an error occures, which can't ignored. 'Ignore' jumps only to the start of the whole scene.

Hey, thanks for playing! New Hope is very much still an active project, with the next update in its final stages before completion :)
How many LIs are in this game ?
there are three :)
Ethan, Theo and Eyal

Anyways, I am looking forward to more updates on this story. I'd love to see what happens next!
And you are a really great storyteller, Blayke!
May I ask the name of the show you are watching that is similar to this story?
Well, the overall story is different. But without spoilers, part of Teen Wolf deals with some similar lore in the beginning of season 6.
Ah I have not seen that show yet. I will have to watch it then :)
Hey, hey! It's awesome that you enjoyed Str8 so much. It was such a blast working on it with Aaryn; we had the BEST time with it! I'm glad you bit the bullet and decided to try out New Hope!

When will be the next update, the game is so cute
Will there be any updates for this? 🥺🥺🥺
Yes :)
Hey Blayke, are you planning on releasing a Linux build some time in the future? That would be much appreciated! :)
Hi Zuri, as far as I'm aware - the PC version of the game should double as Linux! Try giving it a download and see if it will play :)
Hi Blayke, oh, sorry! Should have checked 🤦🏻♂️ Yeah, there's an .sh-File that works as excepted 😬
No worries! Enjoy the game! :D
Thanks, I'm sure, I will! :D
After what you've done to "Straight!?", I know, you're an excellent writer :)
We need a continue so badly!
I don't yet have a date set for the next update. However, I'm going to look at releasing a progress update next week so everyone can see where it's at :)
Thank you
When is the next update?
Hello, I have a problem, I've tried installing the game but I can't because I have a message saying "this title is hosted on an incompatible third-party website". I'm on a windows PC and I've tried both the Gdrive and Mediafire download.
Are you going to continue this game?
yes :)
Is Theo based on a real guy? I'm obsessed 🥵😭
I LOVE THIS GAME and Theo 🤪, when will be the next update? 🙏🙏🙏
will Jeremy become a possible romantic interest in the future? I would like it
I played Straight!? and is my favorite VN game so far, this game and Theo are becoming my favorite, you really are doing an amazing job with this, between art and story, would love an kinda close end or an eventual story about the future when this ends (hopefully not soon)
