Page style changed and screenshots added, also a detailed progress update.


Changed the text on the main page to a softer shade of white, in an attempt to make it easier on the eyes. Also uploaded some new screenshots, and set up a VNDB page for the visual novel that can be checked out by clicking on the link: https://vndb.org/v32565

I've mulled over the possibility of making a short demo version of the game available, since it seems like a lot of other VN devs do that to promote their game...  but not entirely sure if I will do that just yet...

I'm continuing my efforts to replace as much of the placeholder art and music as I can, and I think I have reduced the amount of placeholder content down to about 50%, so that's not too bad for only a month and a half into development.

The word count is nearing 40,000 and there is now a little over 3 hours worth of content. This would have actually been the halfway point, originally... but the scope of the project has increased somewhat since I first started working on it. 

The game is being written at a pace of anywhere from 200-2000 words per day.. with an average of 500-800 usually. A lot of my time goes into tweaking sound effects and trying to wrap my head around ATL animations. But since I'm essentially one person doing everything myself, and I'm having to learn Ren'Py coding as I go... it's taking quite a while.

If things go well, I still might make the originally planned release  date of 1/1/2022, but... there is a significant possibility that I may or may not need to delay for an additional month or two... we will see what happens.

Also, just want to give another shout out to chrystarin (https://www.fiverr.com/chrystarin) for all of the amazing work they have done on my project thus far. They have been working like crazy to produce great, high quality CG's for me and I really appreciate it.


Lastly, I'm quite pleased to announce I have successfully added a functional music room to the main menu, that will enable players to listen to the game's soundtrack easily, without the need to dig into the actual files and look for them.

Might add an unlockable CG gallery as well, assuming I can figure out how to do it... but I suspect it will be a good bit more difficult than adding the music room was.
