Hi, Keo here!
Yesterday I uploaded the February update (v0.8) for all our patrons. It features ~13k of new content and features a continuation for Devon and Klaus. The update will be uploaded to itch.io on 27.03.
For that update we've also created a set of expressions and a new pose for Devon's sprite, so I've uploaded the build v0.7.2 that includes the expressions for Devon, but no other new content.
Regarding Devon's sprite, in the survey for v0.7 we asked you if you prefer the new or the old one. The votes were more evenly divided than we anticipated, but still in favour of the new sprite.
What's interesting is that almost everyone who played the game for the first time preferred the new sprite. We might go back to the sprite in the future and try to work on it more, but for now we want to give everyone time to get used to the redesigned sprite. The sprite itself represents Devon better which becomes a bit more clear in the new update.
