PLEASE NOTE: Due to a recent change, older saved games of the Tennis Bot sub-path may produce an error concerning an undefined variable. If you get this error during play, please start the path again from the beginning. You can make use of the "Skip" option on the bottom menu to quickly get back to where you were.

Hello again, folks!

This month sees the completion of the Villainous Robot sub-path that I dubbed "Tennis Bot" due to its focus on Hiroko. It's slightly more humane than the main Robot path, and features three different endings with two of them contingent on choices that were made earlier in the path (check the updated flowchart guide if you're having trouble). We also have several new illustrations to accompany this new content~

Next month I hope to make some progress on one of the other unresolved, non-Hiroko-heavy story choices. I have a couple in mind, so we'll see where I end up.

In the meantime, please enjoy the latest release!

What's New

  • WRITING: Robot-Tennis Bot story sub path scripted to completion

  • ART: New art for Hiroko's sprite, which appears in one of the Tennis Bot endings

  • ART: Three new CG for the Tennis Bot sub path

  • ART: New CG assets added to a scene in the Villainous Devotion storyline, on the fifth day

  • FIX: Fixed an issue with the CG Gallery which prevented an image from the Villainous Robot ending from unlocking

  • LOCALIZATION: Various edits and corrections to the existing Spanish script

  • LOCALIZATION: Added a localised Spanish version of the texting phone close-up panel in the Hiroko Gullible sub-path

  • Word count is now around 342,500

  • Minor typo corrections
