Hello everyone!

Today we finish off Day 4 completely with Build 11! I'm experimenting with methods of picking up the game's pacing, so give me your thoughts on how this day turned out if you can!

Along with some tweaks to the UI presentation following up from last build, Dev managed to finish off two sprites this month! Ben's professors have a shiny new coat of paint, if I do say so myself. I also found a way to potentially make everyone happy with the backgrounds, seeing as they're hands down the most polarizing part of our game's presentation. In the Preferences menu, you can now select your preferred filter for the backgrounds: "Painted" which is exactly how they've been so far, or "Blurred" to be more in line with other visual novels.

Phew, after the whirlwind that was Build 10, it was nice to be able to take my time a bit with the follow up. I hope you guys enjoy what we have for you this month!

Cheers!
