Heyo, it's Youko and it's time for the weekly update.
We've decided to delay this update to Monday so we can officially say that Rutherford auditions are closed! Thank you for everyone who've applied for the role! We'll announce our final selection next Sunday. We likely won't be able to contact everyone due to the overwhelming number of applications, but thank you for applying either way! ːaiheartː
I'm happy to announce that we are on our way to completing the story sections of chapter 4 and part of 5 this month. We'll be releasing it as early access as soon as it's ready potentially sometime in the next three months so please look forward to it! ːclaineohohoː
In other news, Glean's officially finished with the new voice system and we've moved onto testing for bugs. We still need to slice the voice lines, but that'll likely be done this week. ːjeanthinkː
In a similar vein, AU Junius is right around the corner! We're just missing two CGs, one of which is partially done so we've just decided to open the floodgates and make her playable early. ːjuniusfglareː The differences between the two Juniuses are relatively minor, so please pick based on your personal preferences. Expect to see her some time very soon~ ːashtonglareː
The last bit of news we have is that we're officially looking into Steamdeck! We know a lot of people enjoy playing VNs on the go, so we're definitely invested in seeing Sierra work on the platform. The game works, but we're still considering how to adjust the controls for a handheld experience. The issue mostly has to do with zooming, but we'll keep you updated when we come up with a solution. ːjeanthinkː Many thanks to Sekai Project for suggesting the idea and testing it for us!
Thank you for supporting the game! ːaiheartː
