UPDATE 8/7/2024!


Hi, guys! What's up?
How did your week go?
Mine was a bit of a struggle, but everything is fine now! Especially with Casper, who finally completed his vaccine & doing well! x'D

Bermuda's walkthrough progress is doing well! At first, I wanted to use the same format/layout as the Artbook, but then I thought it'll make me look lazy lol, so I whipped up some changes! The most visible changes are probably in the Characters' Biography pages. I feel generous today so let's do a comparison~

The Artbook Version:

The Walkthrough Version:

I censored some things to avoid spoilers, but I will post the uncensored version on my Patreon for my $5 and up Patrons~

As you might've guessed, the Artbook version focuses more on the characters' background story, while the walkthrough version has a more detailed information regarding the characters' preferences. I also want to give the impression the characters wrote the bio themselves, so the handwriting will be different--and yes, you might struggle reading a biography lol. But don't worry, I'm not that evil, you won't find a doctor's handwriting or anything that resembles worms x'D

For now, I've finished 7 pages. I haven't decided about what the cover design but I think it'll look like a notebook? >_<; I'm out of ideas, Help me?

And, oh, since we've come this far, I've also compiled a to-do-list, just to keep track of things:
1. Finish Bermuda's Walkthrough
2. Deliver the finished game + walkthrough to those who pledged via Indiegogo
3. Post the finished Bermuda + Walkthrough on itch.io
4. Make the promised Special Wallpaper + Sketch of love, exclusive for my Indiegogo supporters
5. Prepare for Steam release (have lots of banner images/icons to prepare)
6. Steam release
7. Make a poll for my next VN 

I looked up how to post/upload Ren'Py games to Steam again (I forgot how to, since it's been years lol). I found a guide and was astounded by how complicated & how many images are needed for the banners, achievements, etc... and I can't help but pat myself on the back since I managed to do it for Winged Ones lol. 

Okay, I'll stop here before I begin to ramble 😂 today's update is very long, I hope I didn't overwhelm you!
As always, thank you for sparing some time to read my update!
Eat well, rest plenty, drink lots, and see you again next week!
xoxo,

SweetChiel

I like the walkthrough design, reminds me of scrapbooks and nature journalling. Glad to hear Caspar is okay after his vaccination too. Best wishes for the journey and hope ur week is good too

Yes! I'm glad to hear you like the design, ~Y U U~!
I'm trying to make it simple, but not too simple since I don't want you to read a textwall >_<; the walkthrough is a challenge for me, I'm trying to use multiple fonts in hopes of making it easy for you to read--I'll show you a sample in today's update!

I also hope you're having a great week! 

Thank you for the response. It was a pretty tough week. Thank you for your response, it's cool learning more about your process!

Wish you a good week too

Luckily you are entering the final stretch in the development! Hopefully, you can add "Take a well-deserved break before making another amazing visual novel" to that list of yours right at the end. Thanks again for all the work and thought you put into this for us.

Yes, SecretTruth! We're counting the days now until I finish the walkthrough & publish Bermuda on itch.io -^.^-

And awww, yes a break sounds great! I'd love to have more time for my beauty sleep or just to play a game/read a novel--it's true what they said about being an adult means we have less energy & time 😂

But first, I need to at least publish Bermuda on itch.io first! >:D
