UPDATE 19/4/2021!

Nusantara: Bermuda Triangle
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Hi, guys! What's up?
I hope you guys had a fun and productive week! 

I have a lot to talk about today so without further ado, let's get on with it!

- 19 pages programmed in! Not bad, but there's going to be lots of polishing in the future. I can already imagine my proofreader's face when she sees this mess :'))

I really admire k-drama scriptwriters sometimes. Their storytelling skill is completely on another level. They're able to write complicated circumstances AND explain them in an easy-to-understand way! I need this! D:

- Made more expressions for the important side characters (a new set of Surprised eyes + Shouting mouth)

- Polished the BGMs and SFXs! Currently, I'm in a dilemma over a background music I used for the 'big reveal'. You know... that moment when the Antagonist's identity is revealed?

Originally, I was planning to use a BGM created by Kevin MacLeod:

But then I found out that this BGM is already used in another otome game titled 'Demonheart'
Can't blame them for having great taste! It's really hard to find another music with the same 'feeling'/'impact'.

The problem is: Will you remember Demonheart when you hear this music? I don't want you getting distracted during the 'big reveal' :S
Am I overthinking again?

Last but not least, I want to thank you all for sharing your thoughts concerning the future of my games! *bows* m(_ _)m
It was a close call but I see more people are leaning towards 'complete release/all at once' rather than 'releasing in routes'. Personally, I'm also leaning towards 'complete release'. I can do quality control easier and polishing won't be a problem.

However, if I you want me to, I can try release a game in routes. 
Please take note that due to my limited programming skills, I will treat them as different games with completely different stories.

I'll be out of my comfort zone but if it's for you guys, I don't mind trying something new in order to lessen your burden (a.k.a waiting time). Really, I can't say this enough, but I'm really grateful with how patient you guys have been with me QuQ

In any case, let's focus on finishing Bermuda first.
Afterwards, I will create a voting event for my next game. I already have something in mind and it could be released either way. Be it 'all at once' or 'in routes'. 

Who knows? Maybe you'll change your mind by then ;)
xoxo,

SweetChiel
