Weekly Update (Patreon)

Hiya, gonna be a pretty short update this week because I have a flight to catch. Yeah, gonna go on the family trip again, which I'm... looking forward to and NOT looking forward to at the same time lol. I like travelling (kinda), but when I return home from my trip I'm so tired and usually end up becoming useless and a lazy blob 0_0 

But well, travelling to other countries can be a very eye-opening experience, and I'm sorta looking forward to it for that aspect.

Eh anyway, enough talking about that, here's this week's update!

SHUU BETA RELEASED

Finally released the Shuu beta several days ago. I haven't blasted the announcement e-mail yet, because it is still quite buggy at this state, and I'm "soft-releasing" it for now (so that the people reporting the bugs are limited to limited number instead of the masses). 

HIKARU BETA PROGRESS

Made some progress on Hikaru's route as well!

Remaining to-do-list:

• Inserting in images, backgrounds, music for Hikaru's after lovers scenes 
• Inserting in images, backgrounds, music for Hikaru's special scenes
• Inserting in images, backgrounds, music for Hikaru's foreplay mode scenes 
• Make it that Hikaru's wearing the proper clothing for his CG scene
• Takes care of CG gallery, chibi gallery, scene replay screen

Inserting images etc is taking a lot more time than I thought (because there are tons of dialogue lines in this game!) 0_0 

WORDCOUNT

Anyway, current wordcount is at 367,798 words with 47,971 dialogue lines. Yeah, no wonder this game takes forever to be finished lolol (Fun fact is, the game has approx. 100,000 words more than 3 Harry Potter books combined lol) 

SLIGHT CHANGE IN STATUS CHANGE MECHANISM

Also, made a change to Toru beta to make it easier to become lovers and (hopefully) less confusing. Now, instead of relying on love meter to determine "status change" (from "friends" to "crush" for example), the status change happens only when the required events is triggered. This way, players will not get confused by things like, "Why can't I become lovers with Toru yet? I'm already at crush at him" - because at that state, by spending time w/ Toru several more times, players already get the "confession scene".

Anyway, see ya all next week! =D

(Next week's update might be postponed by 1-2 days due to the trip)
