Game Update 0.37!

Alright. Ran into some pretty major snags with this update, but it's working now (or should be).

I ended up needing to cut a lot of corners here, I'm not entirely sure why, but the program I use struggles to display 2 characters on screen at once. So if a couple of scenes in the new update seem weird, with characters talking from "off camera" that's why.

I've been trying to be more positive in my weekly updates, so I haven't really mentioned it, but I have been struggling artistically with this update. A lot. At least three-quarters of the art I tried to use for this update ended up completely unusable and the stuff that's left...Well, I'm happy with the Chloe stuff at least.

There is now music in every scene (or most of them) and while I have tried to make sure it isn't too loud, just be wary if you're listening with headphones. The songs are mostly placeholders at the moment, ripped from an old Sega Mega Drive game, which might be really nostalgic to the 3 other people who played it. The tracks are fine, but I'm hoping to get a more unique and hopefully original soundtrack for the game at some point.

This update features two new storylines, as well as a couple of grammar and bug fixes in previous scenes. I did need to cut a lot, including a planned storyline where the player's gf turns into a egg. So...sorry you don't get to experience that? I can't imagine it's super disappointing to anyone, unless you love terrible egg puns. I'll probably sneak it into another update at some point anyway, I want there to be a least a few weird stories, even if they aren't "sexy."

As for content actually in the update, there is a sort of expansion to the Emily Natural storyline, though it's mainly just the "what happens if she refuses to gain" portion of the story. Roxanne finally makes her first appearance here, though she doesn't get much screentime. It is a little rough, I wasn't happy with most of the art for this one, or the story, so I ended up scrapping a lot of it. I'd rather an update have at least 2 storylines though, I can always fix things later. It sets up some stuff for future updates as well.

Chloe meanwhile runs afoul of a witch while the two of you are out and about. Considering "cursed by a witch" is probably one of my top 3 overused WG tropes, I'm surprised it's taken me this long to put it in the game.

As always, please let me know what you think! I can't fix problems if I don't know people are having them! Or I can't focus on an area people love if people don't know about it!

There will also be a poll sometime during the week asking about what everybody thinks, and discussing my plans for the next update. Enjoy!
