Hi everyone! 

Here's an update on the development!  

We start this update off with some exciting news! Aesouh is now able to work on the project more than ever before. He resigned from his dayjob to be able to shift focus more on the project, as we are all positive about the future and we also know that a lot of work needs to go into bringing us where we want to be! As you can imagine this wasn't a light decision, and it really shows how much we believe in what we do. This is a huge step for the project that we believe so much in, and we hope that we will have your continued support as we move forward.  

As most of you, that have been following us for a long time know that the past two releases have been the biggest ones in terms of work and time consumption. They have all taken longer than our normal release schedule because the finalizing and release of Chapter 1 with all the revamp work and the content, as well as Chapter 2 beginning. It's a new game client for Chapter 2 with many changes to the engine, and also to split up the content so that the game client isn't too big for everyone of the biggest reasons however, that made us split up the chapter is because we wanted to make changes to the system both to make it easier to work with, and to introduce new features from the start. 

You saw some new features presented that we were very proud of, like a much better animation system where we got rid of the old animation controls, allow text over dialogue and beeing able to go forward and backwards much more seamlessly! 

There has also been other major changes ot the dialogue system for performance, and to manage a lot of text. We also want to make the game more interractive as we move forward. The first chapter contained a lot of content, and making major edits to the engine after so long also impacts older content, which makes the testing process a lot longer than it normally would, as we didn't only have to test the new content but also the old, now it will be a faster process.

The development of the second release is going as planned and we are also testing out some new tools to increase the productivity during the planning and development phases. 

We will keep the status bar updated as usual so you can follow the progress all the way up until the release! 

Thanks for being there with us guys, your support is very motivating!
