Hi friends,

All I’ve been doing the past few weeks is going in and out of the doctor’s office for a slew of injuries/illness/infections/etc etc etc. Not a fun time! I’ve been really really tired, so not a ton to report on dev work.

I’ve mostly been programming the script and working on the CGs and mini illustrations. Those are coming along nicely: Cipher, Naseem, and Ethan are finished. Wolf and Nikolai are well underway and just need a couple more expressions, and Amarak’s is in the sketch phase.

I’m hoping to have all the main stuff programmed and checked by the end of this month, so that next month I’ll be able to focus on sfx, music, fixing the chat program and playtesting. I’ll try to take the backgrounds as far as I can, but the vast majority will just be lineart.

Iii also wanted to make a trailer, but… There’s no way that’s happening, haha. After the demo is released for the otome/josei jam I’ll probably make one for the updated demo version, then take the game from there.

That’s all for now. Much love,
