[h3][✨Update v0.6 is in development. I'll give a release estimate when ready!][/h3]

[h2]Greetings, Researchers![/h2]

For the past couple of weeks, I've been working on more NPC content! Based on our Discord poll and general sentiments, Luke is definitely being added to the bachelor list in the next update πŸ’— Each romanceable candidate currently has the following content, as do the upcoming ones:
  • 4 Heart Event Cutscenes (πŸ’œπŸ’™πŸ’šπŸ’›).
  • 3 Hangout Events (2 Hangouts and 1 Date) with interactable activities.
  • Special dialogue, mail, and character portraits.
Since I've mostly been working on characters' stories, I won't be able to share too much of them without spoiling~ Here's one of the Hangouts you can go on with Luke, though!

Hangout with Luke at the Violet Archive. Finally, Luke with a Blue Heart! πŸ’™

I've also been working on QOL and other improvements, such as:
  • Polishing visuals for dialogue options
  • Overall optimisation
  • A progress tracker for relationships
  • Balancing for NPC relationships
  • Minor fixes
Hearts Progress can now be seen in the Friendship Tab!

[h3]What's next πŸ“[/h3]
The next bachelorette to be added is... Eira! πŸ’› The poll results was tied between Eira and Yan Yan. I decided to start with Eira, because I wanted to add Yan Yan together with her brother, Ming, so that I can keep their stories more consistent. Thank you for your patience!

Have a great weekend! - Miki
