Hey there!

A poll about additional events for the 1.8.0 update will be added in a few days.

A poll about extra events for the 1.8.0 update will be added in 7-14 days.

About the v1.8.0 update

The update is about 10% done.

Right now, I'm aiming for a December 22–25 release, but we'll see how things go.

That means v1.8.0 will be a bit smaller than the usual updates since I'm planning to drop it right before Christmas — so you guys get something to enjoy during the holidays, and I get a few peaceful days to wrap up the year.

This update should include two special events — the 5th Anniversary and the Christmas/New Year 2025 ones — but I'll probably handle them like last year: focus on the Christmas special and save the 5th Anniversary for v1.8.5. That way, both updates will have a solid amount of story content instead of being packed with too many non-canon events.

1) Events:

1 event with Kim -- 100% completed

1 event with Roxy -- 70% completed

Also my plans include:

one event with Natalie (+ maybe Mallory)

some main event(s) (with Lexi maybe)

one event with Yuki

Christmas/New year 2025 special

On top of that, there will be 2 additional events based on a poll I'll post in the next few days.

That's all I've got on my to-do list for now. Those three planned events (besides the special one) might already turn out pretty big, plus I'll be adding the two poll-based events, and I wanna release this update about a week earlier than usual, so yeah, I'm playing it safe for now.

2) Renders and animations:

About 100 renders and 2 animations are ready -- Roughly planned: 1000-1200 renders and 8-10 animations

3) Other things:

nothing so far
