News: Beta Build Is Out & Remaining Active Funding Goals (Patreon)
Content
Happy Halloween, everyone! We don't have any spooks to share, but we do have good news: The first part of Grace's Chapter 4 is now out in Beta! In addition to a hefty 31k new words and 441 new images, this build includes some ambitious features that we've alluded to earlier:
- A ship naming system with 90 custom responses to possible names, and more on the way!
- All three "fourth form" chest sizes made available in game: The flat chest sprites are in SFW mode, the small chest sprites are default, and the largest chest sprites are... very well hidden :3 Happy hunting to find and activate that Easter Egg!
- There's also one new achievement as well, called "Yacht Envy!"
We're hopeful everything is working as intended, but are looking forward to feedback! If you're a member of the Beta Tester tier and haven't already, be sure to download the new build here:

With Changeling Tale's launch window getting closer, we also wanted to share a reminder about the project's remaining active funding goals (since Patreon makes it quite hard to see these if one is already pledged)!
$7,500 - Unlockable Concept Art Galleries - These include profiles, character sheets, sketches and prototype designs for each romanceable character. We'd love to share the behind-the-scenes work and art that didn't otherwise make it into the game!
$8,500 - New Bonus Endings - After we have completed a few more characters' story lines, we will circle back to the original romances and add one additional Short Ending for each of the MacLeod girls and Rowan Ashfield, featuring even more transformation! Marion, Jessie, Grace and Rowan fans rejoice!
Whether we hit these goals or not, we greatly appreciate everyone's support! Hope you all had a fun Halloween, and looking forward to sharing more updates as we make progress on Grace's final chapter!
