UPDATE!! 1/10/21
Added 2021-01-11 01:00:59 +0000 UTC
All of the art assets have been completed for the update! Any leftover sprite work that I needed to finish has been updated too! I also went over and cleaned up some things in the script for Chapter 2 of the main route. Mostly spelling and formatting errors (I really wish RPG Maker had a built in spell check!) to keep it consistent with the rest of the game, but some maps have been given a bit more detail and look nicer overall. The scenario for Chapter 2 of the vampire route is also roughly 30% completed. While I was writing more scenes for the scenario itself, I ended up adding some scenes that weren't in my original draft but I felt were necessary to add, as some characters would hardly get any screen time otherwise.
I would like to mention that the Pets you earn in the vampire route (Ophelia and Bianca) will not be getting an update this time around. My reasoning is to keep their conversations consistent between long updates. While writing the original relationship conversations back in the first vampire route update, I had an idea for where I wanted them to go, but since it's been so long since I had written them, I lost my focus on where I wanted the final levels of those conversations to end. Since the full story of the vampire route isn't clear in my head yet, I don't want to accidentally write something that may contradict a plot point in the future and then forget about it. To avoid this I'll just go back and update them all when I work on the vampire route full-time.
Lastly, I want to mention that there will be no update next week, 1/17/21. I'll be taking a personal break from social media, but I will still be working on the game during this time. I will return with another update the following Sunday as usual. Thank you for understanding.
