Here are the PAD progress numbers for this week:

Writing: 34/114 - Despite the actual fraction here, this number represents about half of the writing done and edited. Remember that for every scene, there's also an "implementation" task to put it in the game and add the character art and facial expressions, which can't be done until said art is completed.

Character Art: 6/41

Scene Art: 0/13

Background Art: 0/9

Code Implementations: 0/7

The time has come to officially put Magixxx Conquest on hiatus. There was still a large amount of story and content that we wanted to share with you, but the team just doesn't feel that it would be right to try and move forward with a new artist, when that would mean either mismatched art in the game, or starting over and having to constantly compare the new stuff with the old. We may feel differently in the future, but for now we think it's best to begin a new project instead. We've decided what it is we want to do, and a new skeleton project is being created as we speak, with placeholder art just to demo the mechanics and more technical parts of the idea. We plan to start recruiting for a new artist in September, so stay tuned for more information about that!

For now, we've updated the Magixxx asset pack with the art that was able to be completed before the last artist's untimely exit. The full pack will be made available to Prince level supporters in a second post shortly, and will become available to everyone else next week, but we've attached some previews below for everyone now! We thank you for all your continued support as we've work through this, and we know you'll like what we have in store next!
