Hello again, everyone!

This past month saw a lot of frustrated plotting over how this new villain storyline's supposed to go from beginning to end. I sort of know how it's going to end, but I got mega-blocked when it came to working out the finer details. As the days rolled on, I sat down to just start scripting as best I could, and what you'll see here with this latest release is some script for the next couple scenes leading up to... well it's nowhere near as much as I hoped, but at least there's a small reveal at the end that sets up the middle portion of the storyline nicely~

So I'll be developing that middle portion for the next update. And in the meantime, I hope you enjoy what's here :)

What's New

  • WRITING: Wrote the next couple of scenes for the new path on the Villainous storyline, stemming from the choices "use the penlight on Nozomi" then "stick around", up to the first choice

  • ART: Previously sketched CG that takes place during the new Villainous story path has been updated with completed art and included in the CG gallery

  • Word count is now around 443,500

  • FIX: Corrected a small bug in the CG Gallery that wasn't displaying some of Hiroko's CG set despite being unlocked in-game

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

  • Some typo and grammar corrections

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."
