Hi guys! I thought it'd be good to update you on my progress with Chapter 4, since I've been pretty quiet about it. I don't like talking about my progress until I reach some concrete milestones/have things to show so I end up disappearing for a while everytime I'm in the writing phase of an update, sorry about that!

I expect this update will take longer than my usual ~3 months turnaround; there's a lot of plotlines to wrap up and I really want the story to have a satisfying end, so writing is slower than usual. To give you an idea,  I'm currently 31k words deep into the chapter, and probably a little over halfway through what I've outlined. I'm chipping away at it every day and I'm happy with how it's going! It's just taking a while, haha. My list of planned art assets is also pretty long (lots of CGs!). I'll also take a small break during the winter holidays, so don't be concerned if the update takes a while. My goal is to publish Chapter 4 some time in the early months of 2022.

I do also have something to show! You might remember I'm planning two DLCs (the NSFW extra scenes+CGs I've mentioned before, and a digital booklet with extra stories and art), both of which will be available for sale some time after the game's free content is entirely published.
I'm currently designing the booklet's layouts and planning its content (here's a sneak peek at designs). I've made a survey to get your opinions on these layouts, my content ideas and the pricing of the DLCs. It's short and your answers would be super helpful! I'd love to get your suggestions on different extra stories or drawings you'd like to see!

Thanks for reading and thank you all for your support <3
