About the status of development as of May

We've received another status update from Daraneko.
Please give it a read.

=================================

It's May! Time for another status update.

We're planning on releasing the last chapter of the Misha route sometime this month.
(We still have to decide on the exact day, though.)
Right now, I'm working on balancing and other adjustments and stuff.

It's been sooo long.
At first, I thought it would be really simple, since the final chapter doesn't have any dungeons.

And actually, the route where you choose to obtain power only has around 6,000 Japanese characters of text (compared to the 30,000~50,000 characters other chapters have).
But then I came up with too many cool ideas for the other route and got way in over my head, bringing the word count there up to around 38,000...
On top of that, I added a bunch of new game mechanics for the final boss fights as well as some post-game bonuses, so it actually took more work than any other chapter.



But the final chapter is still the one with the fewest battles, so if you play it on its own, it might feel a bit short.
(That's why I originally wanted to release it at the same time as Chapter 4...)
It's been a long while since the Chapter 4 update, so if you want it to feel more satisfying, maybe you should play again from the beginning?
Or maybe play a second time and aim for a different ending.
(The game itself is designed to require multiple playthroughs in order to experience everything it has to offer.)

----------------------------------

As a bonus for beating the game, I've added some character profiles and behind-the-scenes talk to the game as well.
You can even check out their full-body portraits here!



What you see here will change depending on what endings you've seen (as in, more text will be added), so if you want to know more about the characters, please try to beat the other routes too!

=================================

And that's all for this status update.
Development is still going strong, so please continue to support us!
