28/04/2023 - Update

Proud to say, I managed to submit the latest update for UP! in time for the Amare Game Festival! 

Ideally, I would have loved to include the second episode, but the draft is far from finished. It's still missing scene branches, before undergoing full revision and editing. 

This latest version 1.4 includes:

• Original in-game character portraits
• Improved existing theme variations (Candy Dreams and Summer Blues)
• Added two new additional themes (Blue Song and Watermelon Taste)
• Added an achievement progress tracker
• The Stat page has been relocated to the Extra section

The current word count for Episode 2 is 3,299 words (notes and codes included). I don't have a specific release date for the next episode, considering I am still technically on hiatus until next year. However, I did take this chance to unlock the writer's block I have experienced since last December for UP!. On a more positive note, I have planned the core scenes I'd like to appear for Episode 3 and 4 respectively.

As always, for any bug you may encounter, you can either reach me at Tumblr or down the comment section. 

Cheers,
