Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well during these hard times.

I had top surgery on July 6th. There were some hiccups in August that prolonged my recovery as well as other personal things happening with my family. I might need a bit more time to process all this, but I feel that I am ready to continue working on the visual novel.

Currently, I have been working on some outlines to add CGs and an animated cutscene. This will require an addition of a gallery menu for easy access after they've been unlocked, so I am looking into how I can handle this. While I am working on an animatic for the cutscene, I do not know if I will be able to do the actual animation on my own. Once I am able to gather funds, I will be looking to hire an animator to help.

I am aiming to launch a Kickstarter next year. However, I would like to complete a proper, polished version of chapter 1 before I can feel comfortable taking this step.

Thanks again to those that have been patient. All the events of this year have been rather unexpected, but I will push through it.
