They are absolutely gorgeous CGs as well! The artist is so incredibly talented :3 I shall have to ask first but I wonder if maybe posting some of the sprite and CG sketches would be a bit less spoilery! But yeah, once the sprites are completed, posting one or two from every route as updates is a good idea :D

Hmm, I think CiQ is still pretty much dead in the water even with all the amazing support I've gained since Manly played some of my other stuff. I'm not sure if it's because it just looks boring to anyone who looks at it, because people don't know it exists, or if it's just because there's really not much interest in otome/bl games compared to VNs with female LIs available.  It'll probably have to take a back seat I guess. All the writing for it is finished, and I definitely will finish the project at some point because I don't want to let down the people who have helped out with the new demo, but as far as I can tell, there might be like 5 people who actually want to see the game finished >.< haha. I honestly don't know what I'm supposed to do about that one.

Well, I am indeed going ahead with making a BxG version of Apartment No.9! Holding auditions as we speak. I think it makes sense to do it now while everything is still fresh in my mind from the jam version + all the code is there already so it really shouldn't take all that long to finish. The only thing that sucks is that it won't have fancy sprite art like the jam version and it likely won't have any CGs because it would be unfair to ask the artists who helped me out during the jam to do any more when they already helped so much, and with it no longer being a jam, I can't see me managing to find anyone who is willing to help on that front >.<

But yeah, everything will get there in the end :3 Cheers for sticking around! I'm sorry I can't get it done faster really, haha. If it were the length of my jam games, it wouldn't take all that long, but SR is just so darn big that anything to do with it is just gonna take ages >.< I think it was like 3-5ish years to make the otome version in the end. But that's including some long breaks since I was caring for my grandma and for other personal reasons. I don't really take breaks nowadays because I don't know how to anymore xD
