Weekly Update (Patreon)

Hiya guys!
Back with the Weekly Update, which has reached... 129 weekly updates in total. It has been such a long long loooong journey, but I'm pleased to say that it is nearing the end! (yeah, it's like I dream I can finally say something along this line...)

OP VIDEO, ANIMATED LOGO, SCROLLING CREDITS
If you've got beta access, you can now see the opening video for Seiyuu Danshi! (it has been coded into the game) -> the video will play right after you meet Tocchan the first time at the agency =) For second time players, you'll get the option to skip watching the opening movie because rewatching the same thing again and again can get tiring.

I've also inputted the scrolling credits scene! (if you're qualified for credits, please make sure to fill in the questionnaire, I'll continue to make adjustments until the final release date)

It will scroll up... (inputting the 600+ names in manually was no joke... :O)

The "Meyaoi Games" splashscreen has also been changed to an animated one (it's looking pretty cute!)... No screenies because you can't really see how it looks in still image.

SECRET CHARACTER ROUTES
Secret character routes are also almost done. The remaining thing to wait for is the last CG for Kei (the 2nd secret character) and then put it in the gallery and such.
Some screenies:

UNVOICED VERSION RELEASE DATE
As mentioned before, the game will be released unvoiced first, with the voice patch released around December or so (that's the date that was given to me). There are a lot of lines to be voiced, so the voice actors need those period of time for the recording. I don't want to rush them and receive mediocre results, but at the same time, I don't want to postpone the game release even further 0_0... So yeah, the decision is that the unvoiced version will be released first! 

I've already got a release date in mind, but I'll hold off from announcing it until I'm 100% sure it will meet the date lolol (probably as soon as all the game content is finished). Since most of the game content is done, the remaining time until the release date will be spent on a more rigorous testing period (even tho the game was put on beta-test phase for so long, there are still some undetected bugs, some are even game-breaking!)

My sis will be helping me out with the testing. While she's testing, I'll also try to finish the content for guide/artbook as soon as possible so that you can use the guidebook once the game is released! (so yeah, no more save-reloading because you fail at auditions xD). 

 The rough content is probably: 

• The character profiles (will early character sketches + developer notes regarding the character)
• The game guides! Includes details to get each CG & each scene that doesn't have any CG, like drunk scene etc)... + the answers for the auditions
• Characters' interviews? (favourite food, hobby, how he thinks of the other guys, etc?)
• The SFW CG images? (+ the lineart and sketches format?)
  ** Unfortunately, the artbook can't really contain blatant 18+ images... because my country is hella conventional... they will intercept packages from being sent / received if they contain blatant 18+ images... especially if it contains gay relationship... it is a pretty homophobic country... x_x) **
• 4-KOMA manga for each character \^_^/ (also, probably... continuation of the stupid blue riding hood 4-KOMA I made before? lmao) 

Mama Tocchan

Any other ideas or inputs regarding contents of the art book? Feel free to let me know! (As long as it doesn't take too much time to make, I might seriously consider inserting it in)

Anyway, that's it for this week's update. Have been working really hard this week, so I managed to get a decent amount of work done! XD
