(Close to) New year update

I hope these holydays are treating you well! On my part, I have been eating too much (as always) and working too little on the game (as always :p). It's kind of inevitable, with visits to relatives, visits from relatives, catching up with friends, planning where to go on the 31st (effin' snow is threating to kill my plans -_-)... Still, I did some work on the game, mainly writing some text to introduce more characters to the setting (hopefully I won't need much picture hunting, as I already gathered a LOT of images for the quest, but I'll probably need to search some more, as always). The quest is going to be played both from Celeste's and Darenzia's perspective, as the players will alternate between the two for the duration of the quest. I think this will offer some variety, and make things more interesting. The goals the two will pursue will be slightly different, and I figure I'll probably give players some bonus if they do well with both Celeste and Darenzia. Some of the possible outcomes will close off certain side-benefits, though, and I hope the quest will also offer enough replayability through the various playthroughs.

This should be pretty much about it for the moment, nothing much to report, this is a slow period, after all. Consider this my happy new year message, as well. Have fun! ^_^

    1. I am not completely satisfied with my current pace, but it is what it is. Hopefully I can at least make the wait interesting. XD

  2. Random game question:
    Is there a part three or a third photo session available in the game?
    I swear this is the only reason why I pick the sexy trait so that I won't miss on this very cool side-quest in post playthroughs.

    1. Not currently. I have some ideas for future content on Chapter 2 related to it, but I don't want to make a very long chain of events for what's a fun but minor side-quest, after all.

  3. Are there any parts of the game that you feel are too hidden? Anything you haven't received any comments about?

    1. Well, I don't get too many comments now that the development has been going on for this long, but I don't think there is overly obscure stuff in the game. Some secret-ish stuff is definitely less known, but I don't think I got content that went completely under the radar.
