There is a good chunk of content being added with this update, a large amount of writing with all the new scenes for two of our routes, Matt and Damien, plus the usual bug fixes and enjoyable CG scenes. Let's get into it. 

Artwork:
While we do still have one more CG Scene in production that was intended for this release it didn't quite make it in time, but that's just more CG Scenes for the next release. In this though we continue down adding artwork to Damien's route and next month we'll bounce over to Matt to further catch up with the new writing that has been made for him in this month. Like we did this month we'll usually dedicate one or two to Kate to slowly make our way into completely finishing up the artwork for her romance route up to the route lock with her. 

Writing:
While 5 scenes for each route doesn't sound like a lot, but the scenes themselves are very complex with multiple branches based on your choices thus far, with Damien's new scenes alone having 23,000+ words in this release. You all have a lot of story to catch up on with 0.26. 

Technical:
Finally, the technical side. This month we had the opportunity to bug test and linearize the new events fairly properly finding problems in the code that prevented events from firing. With Violet's event there was a variable problem preventing one of her scenes advancing the plot. Damien had a scene that was checking for a variable to be true when it was set to false during the mall scene with him. These were the largest bugs that we fixed, the smaller ones include typos, sprite clothing being fixed, transitions, backgrounds changing properly, and now Matt's Smirk isn't wider than the rest of his expressions.

And that's all folks, more to come in the Plans for 0.27.xx post so stay tuned for more!

Thank you to all of our wonderful fans, yes that means you.
Thank you,
