We will update here as well once we have something a build ready to share. The only update at the moment is art related, so all that stuff is on Patreon/Discord at the moment.
We love her design, but since we are at the beginning of east blue saga... it will be a while before we incorporate characters like Boa Sandersonia, though... I would love for her to be in the game.
We are legit getting somewhat close to an update, we have a good amount of art done for Chapter 3 and just have a few more to do, before we can start working on it.
Thank you kindly, we are working on the game as much as we can with our current schedule. We are doing our best to try and get something out as soon we can.
We do have a battle system, it's on our latest build but we are still exploring what we can do it. We also want to have branching story beats per chapter, to where you can solve a solution in various different ways.
Thank you so much, we don't have an exact date on when the next update will be, we tried following a schedule in the past, but boy did we miss the mark. Once we have a working build of the next update, I'll probably make an announcement on when we plan to release the update.
I had just redownloaded the Windows version of Chapter 2 Update 1, using the link on itch.io, and it worked fine for me. Can you try and redownloading and relaunching?
