🕑 Added 2023-11-21 03:23:07 +0000 UTCIt's release time! Sorry about how things are proceeding, it's a busy time of the year, not only for holidays. We have a ton of birthday celebrations and I haven't had a free weekend since early October. ^^" So, I hope everyone can understand. We're trying to get everything out still as promised.
Thank you everyone for the continuous support and just remember there's more coming this month for content!
[Keep in mind that this is v0.20 part 2, with part 3 expected for Nov 24-26th and part 4 expected for Nov 30th. Content featured is listed under "New Content".]
~V0.20 pt 2 content~
<Supporter Build>
~Adjustments/Notes~
-Transferring saved data from v0.20 pt 1 should work. (Must have saved a little before scene 1 ends.) Any saved data from before that version doesn't work, sorry!
-Miki's Dream has been cleared of any bugs by magical girl Miki!
<!>~New content~<!>
[Bold text is brand new with v0.20 pt 2]
-All sprite assets have been fully replaced and updated with their finalized art.
-New episode 5 splash screen art added.
-New cg art has been added. (1 variant)
-New music has been added to the title screen and other areas.
-Finalized gui text box has been added. (With on-screen button to hide/show text box)
-New sprite animation effects have been added to Episode 5.
-New transition effects have been added to Episode 5.

-Episode 5, Scene 1: Joey’s Harem Quest. Has been added.
-Episode 5, Scene 2: The Girl with a Passion for Fashion. Has been added.
~Known or possible issues being looked into~ (Feedback very helpful! <3)
-Episode 5, Scene 2 has some text like "..." appear oddly. There is also some paragraphs that are awkwardly running over gui buttons. [Fix in place for v0.20 pt 3]
-With the new gui text box, we have finalized font text, size and color scheme. We'd love to hear everyone's feedback in how the readability feels in general with how it appears. Ideally this is the default look for the game, but depending on feedback, we'd like to include general options to change the text simply to white or black within the config settings, if it makes a big difference.
-The new textbox ui button to hide the window has a known issue: After clicking the X and proceeding to click anywhere on screen besides the check mark/button to make the textbox reappear. It will cause a exception error/crash. [Broken until v0.21]
-Android build was provided, but it is still broken. We have removed the download link for that, sorry! [Looking into it for the rest of v0.20 series.]
-Finalized cg art has not been added to the game yet. We're waiting to add these in all at once in future releases. Episode 5 will have new cg scenes added, but they might be outdated art style mixed with some being finalized.
-Episodes 1-4 has new sprite visuals that may not line up with current text shown in-game. Example: Nurse and Karissa are sporting sweet pamps now, but we haven't added new text to reflect this. [Updates being made in v0.21]
-An issue with dialogue text appearing with "XX_" before certain words when it shouldn't appear like this. Example for Episode 1 at the nurse's office: "She was sitting at her desk in the middle of writing" is how it should appear, but it's appearing as "She was sitting at her desk in the te_middle of writing". [v0.20 pt 2 has fixed some of these, if you find more. Take a screenshot and share in the #bug report channel on Discord! <3]

XD It's been a long time coming to see Lola fully return in her glory. :P
Thank you! <3 Ideally after the holiday season, things should get back on track in general. Even now, it could be worse, but I hope for many the thought is along the lines of "At least ep 5 is actually coming out finally!" ^^"

'The Girl with a Passion for Fashion' (and apparently also for sissifying boys who catch her (Lola's) fancy, like Brandon)
No need to apologize, game development takes time, and often has many delays. I genuinely appreciate how often you give out these updates.
