MaM News (November, 2024)

Okay, let's get things cleared out. Hey guys, Axl here! Bringing news on the last update I'll be doing before working exclusively on the big update (more of that down below).

NEW CONTENT

This update is just like the last one, adding one more event for Audrey. I would've liked to give her more content beforehand but eh, not really much that can be done about that... she'll be getting more sooner or later, specially ocnsidering Bea's events are somewhat done for the time being.

Expect altered perception and covert hypnosis for it.

AXL'S COMMENTS

Fun Fact: This is the first piece in game where I hired/got help from two of friends for the art! Both the lineart and shading were not done by me, but I did some corrections here and there.

I don't think there's more lineart that will be done by anyone else than me, mostly because the guy who I wanted in charge of that is just busy and probably not convenient for neither of us to work that way; in the other hand, the shading will be heavily supported.

And if you're wondering who these people are, well, the lineart was done by Aiykawa while the shading was done by Nellchrome, two really good friends of mine!

Finally, if you're wondering why I am doing this, it's pretty simple: With all the new stuff I'm getting for the game, I need to start hiring people for both the art and technical things I can't do or things that'll take way too long for me to learn properly or get done.

I hope it doesn't look too different from the usual and that you'll like it!

ABOUT THE ANNIVERSARY NEWS

Now, in case I haven't said it already: I've been working these last year on a remake for the game, you've seen how I remake old art that isn't up to my new standards, and this is basically that taken to the extreme.

Not only that, I've been learning and studying both for art and programming to make sure I can make Mind and Magic as I first imagined it when I started the patreon almost 3 years ago.

Sadly, working on regular updates at the same time isn't optimal at all, but I didn't want to leave you guys waiting for an entire year, so I just made somewhat smaller updates to keep a balance. Now, I want to focus entirely on the Anniversary since even as I cut content, it seems a bit too big if I keep splitting my time.

I'll be posting news about what I've been doing next month, even if 0.12 doesn't come out, you'll get some posts from me. I'll detail there more about what stuff I will and not be doing until the Anniversary Update is done; for now, I think this post has been long enough, thanks for your patience and sticking around!
