PAD
At long last, we're ready to announce what's coming next! Many of you are aware of the series of bizarre circumstances surrounding the development of this game, and they have led to the decision we landed on. The next release will not be a true build of Park After Dark; instead it will be a spin-off game in the same universe. This lets us meet a few goals at once, the largest being to quickly get out more content of the characters you know and love, while also letting the new artist "train up" on the art style and character designs before having them work on the main game (and thus avoiding the KP fiasco from happening again). We know this is a controversial decision (and would love to hear your thoughts), but we believe it's the right one. This will also be a purposely scale-limited project, to be able to get back to the main game hopefully within the year.
So, what exactly are we planning? One aspect of PAD that we always felt was under-utilized was the Ink and Paint club. It made logical sense for Pete's villain arc and as a way to introduce Jessica, but the rest of the girls there didn't serve much of a purpose; you could have better and more meaningful interactions with them just by visiting them in their rooms instead. This game aims to provide a more traditional strip club experience, by having you play as a non-park manager character and experience what they might at such a place. Now, all you purists needn't worry: this game will be non-canon and instead just aims to play with new spicy art with our established designs and a fun setting.
Stay tuned for more details on the core gameplay loop and what you can expect to actually do in the game, but for now we'll leave you with art of a brand new character, the main NPC who you'll be interacting with: the one and only Genie! We're quite excited to bring this over-the-top character to life with writing and art, and he made perfect sense as a choice for a character who could wear many hats throughout the club.

Here is the link to the v0.07 gameplay survey!https://forms.gle/oagAbiN5ozR1c86h8
We've also updated the build links to v0.07bh (hotfix) in order to address some of the more gameplay-critical bugs that have been reported.
We've decided what scenes we're going to include in the next update, and have started writing on the main story parts of the script. No artwork will be done on this game until the next PAD update is complete.
