Time for the first update!

Alright! things have been particularly busy and chaotic at both ends of the studio (both Bahqu and me) both during December and at the beginning of the year, in January, making the development stagnate a little bit. However we thought it'd be a good idea to reassure you that we've been working as hard as we can right now with this post!
We're close to finishing the planned stuff for the story, plus a couple of extra goodies that people have asked for in the feedback channels since the demo got released:
- First, We're going to start with Taisei's route, the most popular character according to both polls combined. There'll be some new characters popping up, so look forward to that!
- Next we have the release of the demo for both Mac and Android. While not contemplated since the start, we felt like it was a bit of a costly oversight, considering there's been quite a few comments asking for them.
Now, we want to work on some details and features right after this update: We'll be making a couple of UI improvements, as well as the inclusion of the patrons on the credits of the game, located in the About screen.
And finally, to make up for the tardiness of the update, I wanted to share with you some of the early sketches that I did of the characters right when we decided to start working on this project! <3
As you can see, there's little tweaks between some of the sketches, because we considered it would be important to have some body type distinction between all the characters. For example Amias gaining a couple of pounds, becoming slightly stockier, Taisei having a more defined musculature beneath both his adorable fur and his fat (don't tell him I said that), Elijah being a bit more toned all around, and finally Kabul having a skinnier frame, to drive home his athletic propensity for long-distance running. Oh, and Lachlan having no hair whatsoever at the start too hehe!
