The first devlog was back in March 12 of 2022.
I was very optimistic then, always talking about how much sprites i could do each day and stuff like that, ended up burning myself out multiple times having to juggle with this project and the huge batch of comm Ive been working on for even longer than this thing.

And ya know what, am still optimistic, but, well I've learned not to give myself stupid deadlines, be more realistic about what i can and can't do.
Im also thinking about searching for possible peeps that i could pay to do colors and basic shading and helping me out with backgrounds too, i managed to get the help of Wattson, who seems to be helping a ton of other visual novel makers out there and i feel more than honored that they'd be willing to help out with tech stuff in me project!

I learned to not overdo it when it comes to sprite numbers, the goal is to have a more visual focused experience, but it doesn't mean i have to practically do the key frames of an animated movie, as long as you understand what happens with the visual, that's what important.
I learned to keep the palette, shading and all of that very simple on my sprites instead of trying to make everything as fancy as possible, tho on the opposite, the background should still meet a certain standard, especially since they're static and are used much more often than sprites.

And a LOT of that was stuff i felt like i understood at the beginning, but despite that, apparently i needed the experience too to know how to apply it.

Now, im free of the comms, i can FINALLY work on this as much as i want instead of being stuck "I want to work on reincar, but i can't cuz i gotta work on comms, but i can't work on comms cuz im too distracted thinking about working on reincar"

And all of that multiplied by my inability to organize myself uwu'

But yeah, finally, it's here, it's finished, the demo is linked in this post, and will go public in around a week!

And during this week im gonna re and reread everything hoping theres no mistake or anything dfljkmfdsjfdjkflslkj.

But yeah, i feel light as a feather, i feel so happy, thank you peeps so much for your patience and kindness and support, especially with a slowpoke like me, but yeah, thank you so much, love you all, here's the demo attached to this post !
