Upcoming plans for March! (Brief post) (Patreon)

I've mainly covered what we can expect to come next month in our recent February news post #3 found >>Here<<

Since today marks the last day of February, I'd like to mention that our rough timeline for March's game update being released should be as follows.

March 1st-23rd will be spent writing up the draft for ep 4, double checking and improving it to its near finished version of the script. While this is taking place, our sprite artist will be shooting to have our last two background oc characters finished.

(All the background oc characters made so far will be added to the game during our May quality of life update that'll not only include putting those characters in fitting areas of ep 1-5, but it'll fix up some minor script issues and add new areas of choices/interactive moments.)

Our cg artist will be tackling at least 3 cg scenes planned for ep 4 as of right now, with a possibility for a 4th one to show up if it feels fitting to the events of the episode. Currently they're working on adjusting the ep 3 wedgie scene, so that we can offer a 3rd option that feels fitting to that moment for the diaper accident. (We'll be seeing a preview of this later today or Monday. :P )

March 23rd-29th will be spent by our engine programmer and editor to ensure the script looks perfectly good, get it all into the engine and test it out. Sometime during this point we'll shoot for showing off some preview screenshots that aren't too spoiler related for the latest content.

March 30th is our targeted date to release Version 0.19 (Episode 4). We're switching up and improving the way that we handle our schedule as a team with all of this mentioned, so that hopefully behind the scenes, it'll feel less stressful and all over the place on keeping track of things.

~Closing~

March will be a exciting month, as we focus on the main story of the academy once again after our little break and side story content. It'll feature some very nice fan service moments and overall, it should lean more on having some really fun comedy moments pop up throughout! ^^

From all of us on the Messy Studios team!
Stay safe and we hope to see you follow us into March!
