Load saved games are still not recommended. Sorry. I should look for a solution soon.
This time we had many new arts for the update, but no many changes in gameplay. Just a continuation of the plot of the first day at school.
You can see a list of characters of classes 1A (Stepsis' one) and 1B (MC's one), where you can change any name of the characters that you don't know yet (Well, it's a prototype. I should do something visually better in a next update). About the characters that you'll see in this update, they're here in these white background screenshots in the post gallery. What do you think of them?
With the increase in the characters amount, I decided it was time to put into practice the change of sprites I was wanting to do. In summary, I thought the shape of my face was very wide, and I tried to do something cuter. Now they have noses and bigger eye pupils. It was also refined with the help of Patreons who gave me feedback. You can see the comparison below, at the end of this post.
First version of the sprites. Printed screen of version 0.4.0 of the game.
Second Version of the sprites. Printed screen of version 0.5.0 of the game.
I separated the head from the body and changed the anatomy by code so the taller characters don't have bigger heads (What means Neighbor girl didn't change anything).
Third version of the sprites. Showed in Patreon. Printed screen of the development of the version 0.6.0 of the game.
I tried to make them more expressive and cute, but, from the feedback I got by Patreons, I got that the eyes and nose shadows weren't that good and were making the characters kinda scary.
Fourth version of the sprites. Printed screen of the version 0.6.0 of the game, the current one.
With smaller pupils and smoother nose shades. The head format anf face proportion kept similar to as it was, with a few refinements.
