Hey, peeps!

This past month's writing focus has been all on Hiroko, as I tried to get stuck into one of the branch stories I started on last time. The "Trickster" path, a branch of her Ticklish Hands storyline is taking shape but it's been hard going. See how I've gotten on~

Nozomi's Trance storyline has been the main beneficiary from the art upgrades this time around. There's two new ones and both are pretty striking visually! Also included here is a CG from early in the Villainous Robot route and another CG for Sayori's Doll route for possibly the best scene in that story.

Anyway, hope you all enjoy the update! For next time, expect more progress on the Trickster path along with another bevy of new CGs spread across the storylines old and new. See you again soon!

What's New

  • Two new CGs for Nozomi's Trance storyline

  • New CG for the Doll storyline

  • New CG for the Robot storyline

  • Word count is now around 267,000

  • Hiroko's Trickster branch of her Ticklish Hands storyline is now scripted with dialogue up to the end of day 5 and outlined up to day 7

  • Slightly edited the scene in Nozomi's Trance storyline where the new CG appears

  • Edited the Robot storyline scene in which the new CG appears, which occurs during the second day

  • The music track "Rain", which plays during some dramatic parts of the story, has been cut down to make it loop more naturally

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

  • Updated the end credits with the latest backers

  • Minor typo corrections

Known Issues

  • Changing the language on a line where an animation occurs (like screen shake) will throw up an error.
