First let me talk about what has been going on behind the scenes during this month without communication.

Jac Rios (Me).

Welp... I haven't doing well mentally, actually, I may got worse, for almost four months I was going out on walks with my dog, four times each week without missing a day... however, I stop doing it, my sleep schedule got ruined, I always feel tired, my depression has been harassing me lately, nonetheless I have been working on the game despite this. I will try to do better in the future, is just that is really hard for me to do so, not gonna lie, the stress of delivering the game in shape; as well as trying to do good on sales on Steam have taken a toll on me... but again, I will try to do better mentally and get a good pace working with the projects.

As for regional complications, Mexico has been really hot, like, abnormally hot, to the point where it has become dangerous, from 35°c (95°f) to 50°c (122°f) around the country, the heat is unbearable, I need to soak my body on water and work in front of the PC like that with a fan pointing directly at me, is really that bad, I'll try to find a solution to fight this heat and have a better working condition. Also, to clarify, Sack also lives here in Mexico but she is dealing with it better, speaking of her.

Sack.

 As stated in her comment, she will be under an experimental medicine to treat her lupus, she has also being dealing with her university, trying to graduate and get her papers, in these couple of months she haven't being able to work in the game and this is going to be the case until July. She has been telling me how sorry is about this, but allowing her to stay away from development for now will be the best for her mental and physical health.

This will delay the game a couple of months, however, I'm going to use this time to post the Steam page and allow people to wish-list and share, also pay some ads and do marketing in general, get as much relevance as we can during this soft-hiatus~

Also also, there is something I'll be working in the next few months... something I'm going to announcement in the next few days, those who joined the Discord already know what I'm talking about, I have made some progress since then~, but for those who don't know, I promise it will be worthy~

That being said, its time to show the new backgrounds~

Backgrounds.

All the backgrounds have been remade, now the line-art is more thick but more detailed in a way, the reason being that we want to make them look more hand-drawn, I also added a slight blue tint, to match the newest character sprites. On top of this, now side and main characters are in the scene to be shown during narration, silhouettes for unnamed NPCs will be added later.

I will consult Sack for fixes with the characters sprites, but we are also very open to feedback, on this comment section or at Discord, we want to make everything look as good as possible for release~

This is not everything for now, we have a big announcement in the next few days as tease above, we will be way more active from now on, and soon you'll know why~
