Routes

Moving forward, especially after the next Chapter, routes will become a major focus of the game.
Routes are optional events that deepen the bonds between you and the girls. The Mako events in Prologue, as well as the Shobu event with Faranne are examples of events required to further your relationships with either of them.

Past a certain point, routes will lead to romantic relationships. By the end of the game you'll have to choose one route to see the ending with your favorite girl, but until then you are free to explore all of the possibilities, as you can treat each route as separate timelines. You don't have to play the game 20 times to explore them all, you can do all of them in parallel and just choose one at the end to see it to completion.

A new app has been added to 0phone to keep track of your routes, The meter starts as stars and then becomes hearts after a critical point has been reached in each route.

When a route goes from stars to hearts depends on each individual character.

I made small pixel icons for every character that'll be used in this app, as well as indicators and map icons.

Speaking of routes, in the next build Chumumi's will reach a point further than all of the other have yet, so look forward to that.

Chapter 4 is likely longer than chapter 1, 2 and 3 combined. I'm aiming to release the first part of it as soon as possible, but tackling a chapter that's as long as Prologue (minus the amount of lewd scenes, those will come in greater numbers with routes) in this short time has been quite the endeavor. Chapter 4 will be one of, if not the longest one in the game, so finishing it will be a huge goal reached towards the completion of the game. I can't wait to share it.

That's it for now!
