2022 is ending, but 2023 got surprises for you!

Hello everybody 🤗 Long time no see!!

How are you doing? Is this last week of the year treating you well? We sure hope it does 😉 And we hope you all had a great time on holiday. Y'all deserve it 💝

Talking about last week, this is the last devlog of 2022 😱 Time sure went by too fast this year, huh?! It still feels like February when we were fired up to work on Colorful MIRAI 😆

Also, so much has happened this year. It was surprising lol

We just posted a full wrap of 2022. In this "Honey Bunny's retrospective," we talked about all the joy and pain we went through this year. You can check it out here.

It was a beautiful year thanks to all of you 🥰

But back to the topic, since this is the last post here on itchio, we want to make sure it is a special one with some nice news for you 👀

Let's go to it.

So, as people say, December is the month of hope and love. The perfect time for Renting Love for Christmas to celebrate its 1st anniversary. Yeees 🎉🎉🎉

It's been a year since you invited those beautiful boys into your house lol

We didn't have time to make an illustration to celebrate it, but we still want to mention it and thank you all for giving this project a try and sharing so much love with us.

We truly appreciate it 🥺🙏❤️ 

Now we are looking forward to sharing a new story with them next year too 😊

Annnnnd since we are talking about stories, I think it's time to share some good news about TeachersLP with you 👀

Ready? 

So... We got the update, all the new content, and everything else mostly done. 

Yes! Right now, we only need to edit and fix typos on Eric and Ray's routes and wait for the final CGs to be finished 🙏🙏🙏

Guys. It’s happening. IT IS HAPPENING!!! 😭🎉 finally omg 🙏

So, to wrap it up for once and all, the new update coming next year has:

• 13 endings
• 19 BGs (+Day/Night)
• Over 30 CGs
• 3 new sprites for every character
• 1 new scene for Edgar
• 3 new scenes for Markus's route
• Leonard's route reworked (+2 new scenes)
• Ray’s route
• Eric’s route
• 5 Epilogues
• Over 120k words (over 8 hours) !!!!!!

So, when the game is out, we recommend you play all the routes from the start, because... It's going to surprise you 😉 

Now talking about next year's plan...

Our main goal is to get Colorful MIRAI into a better shape. We want to focus on it the most and try our best not to start a new BIG project in the meantime lol

But of course, we are still open to short projects 👀

We also have Renting Love for Christmas 2 in the making. We hope to give it the attention it deserves this year.

So, to sum it up, our goal for 2023 is:

✨ Release TeachersLP’s new content as soon as possible.

✨ Focus on Colorful MIRAI. 

We are going to change the GUI, the backgrounds, and the sprites, add the new CGs and get the story into deeper ground. 

It's time to get all the notes we made this year and put them to work! 😤✊

✨ Make Renting Love 2 real.

✨ Annnnnd... Have fun until the end ❤️

It feels great to have goals and make plans, but it's always good to keep our feet on the ground and be prepared for anything that might happen along the way, be it something good or bad.

Things change all the time, but whatever happens, we will make sure to face it and work our way to give you the best experience we can ❤️

So, yeah. Now is the time to enjoy this last week and just be grateful for all that has happened this year.

From devs to players, we thank you all for being part of our 2022.

You made our year better. And we hope, from the bottom of our hearts, we could have brought some love and joy into your life with our games too 🥺❤️ 

We are taking this week off to enjoy the party with our loved ones and rest a bit before getting back to work. We can't wait to see what awaits us next year!!!!

Thank you for making 2022 such an amazing experience for us, and we hope to see you again in 2023 with more games to share with you 🤗❤️

We from Honey Bunny wish you all a very Happy New year!

🧡💛💚💙💜❤️💗
