So, as SR gets closer and closer to release (finally xD) I decided to update its page here and add some images with brief descriptions of each route just to cut down on the amount of text on the page and make it look tidier :3
As I wrote on the new description, I'm hoping to release by the end of May 2020 but it all depends if COVID-19 screws with things! I'm currently testing everything and it's going surprisingly well, haha. I thought I would find a lot more bugs but I guess I shouldn't jinx myself >.<
Testing progress pretty much looks like this:
Menu Screens & CG Gallery - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended
Student Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended
Mage Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended - 1 character still missing voice lines
Clan Princess Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended
Detective Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended
Gamer Route - 10% - Playable, currently testing for major bugs
Hidden route - 0% - Playable, testing for major bugs after Gamer Route - 1 character still missing voice lines
I'm undecided as to whether I should send the game out for a few people to test before releasing (which would further delay the release while I wait for their feedback and apply fixes), or just test to the best of my ability to eliminate all game breaking bugs and release a beta version sooner (which may contain spelling/grammatical errors and minor bugs) that everyone can help me test by submitting any errors they find to me and I'll just fix them as fast as I can and upload the updated version.
Aside from updating the page here I decided it was time to actually settle on a name to go by when creating my visual novels as the name I originally had here when creating my account was just something I came up with on the spot so I didn't have to think too much about it, haha. My new page is now: https://melancholy-marionette.itch.io/
I hope that anyone who reads this is doing okay, especially with what's going on in the world at the moment! Here in the UK we're on lockdown due to COVID-19 and I know that many places in the world are suffering right now. Wherever you are I hope that you manage to stay safe ^_^/
