The next public release of Penlight is upon us!

Although to be honest, there's not much new writing to be found this month :/ I've been spending my time developing Sayori's Doll storyline, and it was very slow going. Still, the first in-game week is done now, including its first CG. It's not as much as I wanted, but what's there should serve as a decent taster for what's to come. 

Besides that, the Spanish localisation's been tidied up a bit and there's been another round of CGs added to various routes. The one on Hiroko's second storyline is especially good~

For next month I'm cautiously optimistic about having the Doll storyline written to a conclusion, so look forward to that. In the meantime I hope you enjoy this update, such as it is, and I'll see you again soon!

What's New

  • New CG for Sayori's route, on the new and in-progress Doll storyline

  • Added a new CG scene on the Villainous Devotion storyline, towards the end

  • New CG for Hiroko's route, at the end of the "Ticklish Hands" storyline

  • New CG for Nozomi's route, during her "Trance" storyline

  • Sayori's Doll storyline has been scripted up to day 7

  • Word count is now around 223,000

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

  • Updated the end credits with the latest backers

  • Lots of typo corrections (did a sweep of the whole script to find them)

Known Issues

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