Although I am unsure how much longer I need, I have to say that Chatgpt is really helpful. Below is my personal evaluation of Chatgpt based upon my experiment of various things in the past month.

Comics
All six of the thrive scenes are designed and drafted, with about two of them still being colored. Therefore, some of the design resources have freed up, waiting for me to finish the final piece of the game (the thrive scene engine).
Currently, we are attempting to try doing some comics, using the many bonding scenes that we have. One of the reasons is that I see how good AI coloring can be (even though I haven't succeeded yet in creating consistent results^^).
But even if I failed, these techs are still getting good at a scary pace. The worst-case scenario is we release an uncolored version. Plus, there are a lot of emotions and character's thoughts in the stories that we missed putting there during the development.
We aim to do one volume (one bonding story) per month, around 14-16 pages each.
