Dev Diary 54 (Patreon)

Hey all, TD here, excited to bring you news on Ch4Up3.

Image work began on April 18th, and the current running totals are 133 static images, 0 animations, and 5,494 words.

The scope of the next update is hard to precisely describe. For simplicity sake, you could brand it as a "Veronica" or "Carnations" update, but it encompasses more than that. Veronica will be getting so much needed, well deserved, and long awaited attention, but layered around that will be a variety of other dangling plot threads and character interactions. For what I feel is the first time in a while, the overarching narrative will be advanced beyond a crawl and I am feeling unusually inspired because of it.

GIL and I have set some productivity goals for beyond, but this update will be the testing ground for that commitment. Our schedules are more in sync than they have ever been and we have adopted some changes to our workflow with the purpose of producing more timely and content-packed updates in mind. Only time will tell if this will bear the result we desire, at the very least, we both feel our creative process has been invigorated. 

That will do it for this diary; I'll spare some details for future ones. Thank you all for the incredible release of Ch4Up2 and please look forward to Ch4Up3.
