Howdy everyone! Another report, so let's get into it!
We have finished upgrading our dialogue tool to its newest version. We had to redo, readjust, and figure out a lot. But the new version offers so many tools that it's well worth it. Now we can start implementing the content for the next build! This will be a long week for Lotus, so give him lots of love.
Stuff that we have gotten done is! We have added a clickable version number to the main menu that shows the changelog. We also added splash screens showing the studio name, the No AI message, and a reminder that this is a game in development.
We also have another animation completed! We likely won't get all of these done in time for v0.15.1, but we can probably get one more done. This one is an adjustment to a previous animation. After that, I think we can shift focus to animating sprites for the two new characters in v0.15.2.
Another fun thing we are doing is adding new UI SFX done by Lolurio! I'm excited to give the game a slightly different sound as we evolve.
As for writing, I have actually done the writing for v0.15.1 AND v0.15.2! Now I'm 27% of the way through the (hopefully) final draft of v0.15.4, which is the last content update for Ep 1.

My goal with this big reset is that, once we leave an episode, it is done and finished. I don't really want to keep going back to older stuff. Unless there is something glaring or if enough concerns are raised.
As for Art, Pamika is working on backgrounds for scenes in v0.15.4. Kokman is actually signing a new contract today! More hours, more money, more art! Super excited to get him doing more. Which is thanks to all of you supporting us so we can do that! Kokman is currently working on lewd scenes for v0.16.
And that is sort of it! I will be taking today off as it's my 2nd wedding anniversary, but I'll be back on Wednesday to keep kicking ass. Oh, and my taxes are figured out, so that is a major headache solved. Now I... just need to pay them... hehe...
Remember! New Build on April 7th!
Be kind to each other, stay safe, and Stay Rad!
