Hi, everyone!

Before I get started on the details, I need to make the following announcement:

This update will possibly corrupt your existing saved games and reading progress, caused by my updating the Ren'Py engine I use for making Penlight to the latest version. If this happens to you, you can mitigate the inconvenience this causes by selecting Preferences from the main menu and turning on "Unseen Text" and "Transitions" under the Skip submenu. That'll save you from having to click through every line of text again until you get to the parts you want to read.

So yeah, sorry if that causes trouble for anyone. Anyway, on to the update...

This one adds a bunch of new scenes for the ongoing villainous storyline, which I'm calling "Copycat" going forward. This brings the story up to pretty much the end of the sixth day, and includes new sprite art, music and a CG made especially for the new content. I'm excited to see what you all make of it~

I hope to continue this momentum into next month as we barrel on towards the conclusion of the Copycat story, with at least two more new CGs along the way. Please look forward to it ^^

What's New

  • REN'PY: Updated the game engine to Ren'Py 7.8.6 which will possibly cause issues with saved game data

  • WRITING: Concluding scenes for day 5 and most of day 6 written for the ongoing Copycat storyline

  • ART: Added one new CG for the Copycat storyline

  • ART: Added two new outfits and two new expressions for Akiko's sprite for the Copycat storyline

  • MUSIC & SFX: One new BGM and one new sound added for the Copycat storyline

  • Word count is now around 452,500

  • 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."
