I finally made the Blythe sprite. Spoiler! She's in the game.
And with that, I've now ended up drawing sprites of every character in my Endless Monday world, even though it was originally supposed to only be Penny, Tiger-chan and Whiskey. I have one more character sprite to draw, and that's for one of the endings, which I still need to finish.
I also drew a bunch of other art, but won't be sharing them as they're very spoilery (they're the main story objectives - the illustrations Penny has to draw for her project). I'd been putting off drawing them (life imitating art, as they say), but while I was doodling my brain remembered something stupid and sparked an inspiration, and I finished all the final versions in a single day. I rewarded myself by playing Civ 6, which I should not have done, because now I regret wasting a night playing Civ 6 instead of working. C'est la vie.
I wrote a bunch of words, filling in the remaining holes in the dialogue little by little. I can't really share them because they're not that interesting out of context and visually the screenshots are very similar to what you've already seen before. I imagine the next updates up til the release are gonna be like this as well. Sorry.
Anyway, the remaining parts are all just writing and CGs. My release date is either 5/2 or 5/4. Yeah, I'm playing it super risky by deciding on this timeframe without having even finished the game yet, but I literally can't release any later because of real life circumstances. So, super-mega crunch time it is :-) It's doable, though. Please send me energy.
As I approach the moment of truth, I'm starting to accept that it's gonna be a little rough around the edges when it releases. Of course, the story will be complete for the original release, but I think it'll be more like a first draft instead of something I could have crafted if I had a few more months *laughing and crying and sobbing* But anyway, I'll be supporting it the best I can and doing fixes and stuff in the months after release, and maybe doing a "definitive edition" update once I'm sure I have the "final draft" along with other story dlcs as I talked about earlier. Well whatever. As they annoyingly say in the big tech world (but is probably appropriate here): "Done is better than perfect".
