Dev Diary 11 (Patreon)

Hey all, TD here with the next dev diary.
Things have fully picked up now that the holidays are in the rear-view mirror. Presently, we are at 800 images and 7 new animations and GIL has been hard at work finishing up the last bit of a sequence that Hana fans are really going to enjoy.
This will also be the week that Mina will come into her own character. She's been the least developed of the cast so far, so look forward to her getting more prominent screen time and a little extra depth beyond "best friend's bubbly model girlriend." Judging by the results of the character poll, she surprisingly seems to be a fan favorite despite her limited involvement so far. I'm curious if she'll gain ground on the leading girl Hana after this update.
Besides that, Kat has yet another daring mission for the player that will span the whole week this time and it'll be up to the you just how far you take it.
On a final note, GIL has started to use some new "tech" when it comes to animations. Coming from playing mostly Japanese VNs for the past ten years, I've never really cared about animations, but his recent level up has me absolutely floored. Not every scene can be done in this style going forward due to some technical limitations, but please look forward to seeing how much GIL has improved.
I hope everyone has been having a great 2021 so far. Thank you for the continued support.
