News From the Six Realms #55 - Manic Monday (Patreon)

Hey guys,

We've been having a pretty good month over here at Venus Noire so far. The new Steam release, Lovers & Lies, has been pretty well received, and sales are up from the typical weekly average. The Patreon continues to hold steady, which is probably the best we can hope for during a pandemic, and hopefully, things will start getting back to normal soon. Until then, be safe and keep taking care of yourself.

Moving on to the exciting bit - the release is close to being done now. Most of the writing has been completed, and I'm currently busy coding it all for the 30th. We've got the new NTR content, the final event on the dominant path for the Cliohna arc, and a bunch of other new scenes. Hooky has also been busy reworking the Fae content to the point of an almost entire rewrite, as well as reworking the Greyhide events to make them form a more coherent narrative in preparation for his upcoming character arc. 

On the art side, we have all the CGs back from the colourist, and Sommy is busy finalizing the last of them. We've been sharing than with the backers as usual, and we'll be sharing the rest over the next few days before the release. Sommy has also been working on an epic CG for the battle of Astarte as you can see above, which he is hoping to get done by release, so fingers crossed on that one.

That's all for today, as I have to get back to the code mines. As mentioned earlier, the release date will be the 30th this month (as our normal release date would fall on the 27th, which is my birthday, and I'm taking the day off). Failing any major catastrophe, the release will be on time as usual.
