Have a seat, 'cause it's gonna be a wild ride!

With the story currently in a good place for a small break, I've spent this entire week on filling out some missing content that has been on the back-burner and ignored for far too long.
The unresolved Howling Moon Clan situation in Crimson Forest is now all of the sudden nearly finished and will be accessable anytime after both Ra'Tiki and Mhu'Tiki has joined the party while having at least one camp/castle conversations with Ra'Tiki.

All the additional shops meant to be in Castle Warrengard has also been added.
Originally the plan was you'd have them recruited individually in the world like how you can open up the tavern once you get Layla, but at least for now, they will automatically unlock for every 15th property you have purchased with all of them being available at 45 owned properties out of the 50+.
They will all be unique characters with their own emoticons, just like the blacksmith, although for the time being they're just using placeholder sprites.

And that oughta do it for this update, see you next Tuesday!

Life is like a bag of nuts, you never know which one will end up in your mouth!

Most of this week has been spent on creating new maps for the next main location.
But I've also continued on the story with a pretty big revelation that'll answer a bunch of questions. (Unfinished as of right now though) Finally, I've gone back to a few previous cutscenes to tweak certain things like giving some extra attention to an important one in Tseneria Isle while also having Van reveal what he was actually doing in the Kingdom of Namaria when you first meet him.

Spoiler warning below if you haven't seen that cutscenes yet or intend to replay it -
He was ordered to find and retrieve an "old helmet" from some ruins at the outskirt of Namaria.

Thus, we're aiming for next Tuesday!

Get to da choppa!

I believe everything related to Tseneria Isle in terms of polish has met my standards by now,
and I also got a couple of more cutscenes outside of that location done this week as well!
In terms of story, I'd say there is about 2-3 arcs left before the main story is finished.
While this may sound like little, keep in mind they aren't restricted to one location as I consider the full Tseneria Isle arc to basically be everything from returning to Castle Warrengard after Laquadia-something to giving a certain artifact to a specific character. (Trying to avoid spoilers)

And I suppose by that definition the Tseneria Isle arc isn't quite 100% done yet, but the Mermaid Triangle part certainly is and there might only be 4-5 cutscenes left of it.

So with that, I'll back again next week as always!

The truth about Santa would shake you to your core...

This week I got a bag o' goodies, starting with your traditional storymode progression, naturally!
The Tseneria Isle arc has been completed and mostly just need some polish on a few cutscenes.
What has become known as the "International Edition" art style has also been updated with some previously missing illustrations, covering Gabrielle's CG Scene and her photoshoot pose.
And lastly, I corrected a bug related to the Lewd Boxes that made the latest sets not display correctly during the unlock process and instead showed the Emerald Gem card as a default.

That'll round up this short and sweet Tuesday update, I'll see you next week!

Aaaand we're right back on time, just like the aliens wanted!

Progress is coming along smoothly and additional storymode content has been made in form of a couple more cutscenes, with the last one currently in production before you've concluded your business on Tseneria Isle and is making your return to the good ol' Beldorian Empire mainland.
Like usual when it's just story bringing us closer to the finishing line, there isn't much else to say.

So with that, we'll keep moving forward until next Tuesday!
