Hi, everyone!

For the last public release of the year, we have a delightful new CG sequence featuring Hiroko that I had made as part of my development of one of her branching story paths. The "Gullible" story path has Kyou tricking his tennis-playing nemesis into going along with various uncomfortable suggestions, under the guise that his influence over her mind is more powerful than it really is. The new artwork depicts one of those suggestions playing out in fine detail, and should be set to become another favourite among Penlight fans~

Elsewhere we have a couple more CGs done for existing storylines, Robot and Doll, along with a bit of new writing for the Devotion storyline where I attempted to get a new ending scripted. I didn't succeed, but the foundations are there at least.

And... that's your lot for 2021! Enjoy the holidays and join me in the new year where I hope to keep working on Penlight for as long as it takes to see it through!
