The Prologue's out, so what is next?

Thanks for playing~!

I was massively surprised with all the interest there's been in For Skin & Scale over the last... only 3 days! More than 1,000 people have downloaded the VN in this time, which absolutely blew my mind. There's also a few people who have sent me tips or become a patron, all of which is going right back to getting art assets :D

I have already gotten back some feedback that I can put to use. My plan is to (1) Revisit the prologue and expand a few areas. Some have said it goes a tad too fast, and to that I wouldn't disagree. (2) Get to work on the first Chapter - to those who don't know, this VN is not completely linear and will have choices. Some of which are quick and lead to bad ends (for those who appreciate the 'quicksave and submit' in spicy RPGs), but most will have meaningful consequences for the story later down the line. (3) Expand the team a little. There are some places I could use help, so keep on the lookout for an announcement in my Discord (Link) server if this interests you. There are a few things I am thinking of, but at the moment translation is the biggest one.

Through feedback, I have been told/learned the following:

- The trio are adorable (you are all correct)
- The prologue could be expanded and use a little buffer between martin being so interested in a certain red mass
- New installments should be far longer than the build is currently
- Android version needs its own App icon (oops)
- Reidruss kinda looks like if Hakan from ToS shaved (...shutup shutup shutup shutup...) ok you are kinda right, but that sorta just comes with the business of being a lorg red scalie
- Foreskin-Scale.
- Reidruss nude remains requested yet undelivered
- There's a UI bug on tablet version (a fix is in the works)
- Music should be changed up a little more (for the second half)
- The Orphan's Meeting CG was well received (I would like to keep that style up in the future despite the extra effort)
- The sprites and CG art have been complimented a lot! I will make sure to pass this along to the artists :3 (Links to the artists are on the project page if you'd like to let them know yourself!)

If there is anything you want to let me know in addition to the above, please reach out!

So, when?

Give me a little time while I redo, reorder, and improve some parts of the prologue. It might only a few hundred works longer, or as much as double the size, with some of the content coming after the current ending. I'm not sure yet.

I should plug the Patreon (Link), as from now on 2 weeks of early access will be available for my supporters over there.
