Happy 2022!

First off, thank you again to everyone that played my game! I'm still surprised and thankful of the warm reception, Alicia and Beaford are two characters that I had for a very long time but it was only last year that I started gamedev. There's also a surprising amount of people who likes Beaford(?!), I really thought Alicia would be more popular.

To update where I’m currently at:  I was originally going to release a demo for Winter VN Jam but with how hectic end of year had been , I decided to work on it more slowly to make sure that I’m satisfied with the end product.

As you notice, I decided to modify the character portraits as:
1) I got feedback that the character expressions in the old one were too stiff, which I totally agree with.
2) I’m planning to have more characters and this saves so much time, really. 

Currently, the plan is to make 4 episodes that are self-contained and could be played independently from one another.

Looking back, Episode 1 would also honestly need a big rework both plot-wise and art-wise. Sorry for not patching it yet as I know there are some bugs/inconsistencies that I need to get to! 

Other things that I’m working on alongside episode 2’s demo:
- Character profiles for Alicia and Beaford. Here's a  preview since I didnt get to make one for Ep.1
