Hey guys! In the above video, I'm going to cover in excruciating details the results of the survey that I launched on Monday the 9th, which includes reading the relevant 'Other' comments. Here is a TL;DW with my conclusions:
• Elena's breast expansion will probably remain in the territories of the 'Pectoral Gang' and 'Status Quo Crew' during Chapter 1. In a future chapter, I will try to please the members of the 'Moderation Regiment' and the 'Big Bewbz Squadron' via an improved serum. I doubt that I'll be able to please everybody all the time. As for the 'Kaiju Division' members, I will try to look out for you guys in a dream-sequence / what-if joke thought-bubble scenario.
• At this time, Early-access builds/releases are unlikely, because you wouldn't have a working game to test. For the most part of this first update, I've been focusing on art assets first and everything else second. I still have to pull all the scattered pieces of my work together, and by the time I get to that in a few weeks, there won't be a need for an Early-access build. Things may change for the next update, however, and I will try to have a working update before finishing all the art assets.
• I will not make the game free on itchio. I believe this to be too much of a risky move.
• When I release the first update, I intend to also release a free demo which will end right after the start of the NSFW FMG sequence with Elena.
• Probably after I'm done with the first update, I will look into joining Subscribestar and/or Boosty for those who can't follow on Patreon.
• I will resume making bonus content once the first update is out. Right now I'm working on NSFW animations, and I don't want to divert my efforts from those too much. After the first update is out, we'll discuss what's best : the same type of bi-weekly bonus content drops as before, or something else like monthly mini-playable episodes without animations.
• If/When I re-add voice-acting, it'll be at the end of development, and I plan to do something similar to Danganronpa: short little sound-bits that inform the players on the vibe of the dialogue (like "Hey"/"Hello"/"Hi" variations for greetings dialogue lines, etc), without being literally what's written in the dialogue.
The video will also be posted publicly on Itchio.
This is just an experimentation, to see if this makes things better for everyone.
By the time you're reading this, all existing Tiers should have been made equal in benefits.
• If you were an Hobgoblin or a Goblin, nothing changes for you.
• If you were a Gremlin, you get a bit more benefits.
• If you were a Goblinoid, well, now you're a Boggart (simply because 'Bogz' sounds better), you should have a game-key if you never had one before, and you'll be able to see the Bonus Content Drops and vote in polls.

One Tier to rule them all!
I don't want people to think that I'm scamming them.
Still, realistically, I have 3 types of followers:
• Those who want to have as many things as possible for the cheapest value and aren't really willing to support it beyond that. Those will cancel their membership immediately after they've downloaded everything they were able to, knowing they'll get game-updates 'for free' from now on.
• On the opposite side of the spectrum, those who want to support the project, those who realize that without them, the project won't reach a satisfying conclusion for anyone, those will go above and beyond to help. They're usually those who in the past have taken the Hobgoblin/Goblin Tiers and have remained in those Tiers for more than a month. You guys are the True Brothers!
• Finally, in-between, there are those who want to support but just can't because, like me, their finances aren't great. Brothers in Hardships, I salute you!
I'm making a bit of a leap of faith, hoping the True Brothers' support will overshadow the the first group, and that the Brothers in Poverty will feel empowered to come back.
But if the majority of people act like first group, that experimentation will be classified as a failure and then I will likely take the L. We'll see!
This week, I've worked on 3 new animations and I've prepared over a dozen sprites that I'll animate next week. I know, it's not much to goon to, but we're getting there!

Above, you can see a comparison of the old animated sprite and the new version.
Below, you have the new version in context:

Animations includes:
• A new subtle animation for when Elena actually injects the serum into the back of her neck, replacing the old still sprite.
• An animation to be used right after as she's feeling the first effects of the serum.
• A new animation showing her thighs grow beefier.
With these, I wanna do my best to make it so that they're not 'just' a fade from one state to the other, I always wanna try to twist and warp the shapes at the same time.
That being said, since I've already spent time this week preparing the next sprites, hopefully, I should have more animations next weekend.
Below, in the Attached files, you'll find a short video file showing the animations I've added.

This week, I've also added 4 new icons.
Now, the notable bit is that I decided to remove the serum-injector-gun from the game. It's one of those ideas I've regretted for a long time and I kept rolling with it reluctantly.
Well, it's now gone and replaced with a new simpler stimpack design, the size of a marker.
The second notable thing is that I've decided to expand on the idea of the green liquid which is mixed to Alex's Bia Serum, the compound that multiplies the serum's potency.
I call that liquid 'the Catalyst', but I want to give it a better proper codename.
I will ask you guys to help me pick a name through a new creative poll that should be up by the time you've read through this post!
I've also started writing things related to the group behind the Cataclyst, which would currently be named Myosei Shinka Dynamics. It would be a laboratory based in Japan, partner of Bionovalis. The name should mean something along the lines of "Miraculous Evolution of Life". Above, you can see their logo and the shipping box (meant to be full of little canisters of vials of Cataclyst).
Alright, that's about it for this week.
I hope you guys are doing better than me with the summer heat! Have a happy weekend and Sunday! Cheers!
