Build 5 Progress Update (and a couple of other announcements)

Hi friends! It's Bowser.

I haven't updated you in a while! Been very busy. Long story short, I had to attend a work conference over the weekend, basically meaning that I haven't had a day off since last Monday and won't again until this upcoming Sunday 😅.

It's not all bad, though. I've been able to get all the writing done for Build 5! I'll be honest, there's a few times I was stumped during the writing process, but I think I've hobbled together something great that I hope you...

Short Build 5 Updates

Hey y'all! Bowser again.

Just giving some small updates for Build 5. We got our newest sprite done, our newest CG is complete, and our new BG is in process.

Script writing is still about 1/2 done. Going to try to get more of that done so we can move on to coding and voice acting!

My aim is to provide a review copy in June and release Build 5 to the public by Anthrocon. We'll see if we can get there.

That's all I have! Like I said, told ya it'd be short 😌

Chord Progressions, Staccato 4

Hey, y'all! Staccato 4 is here :3.

Our new story is titled "Bell". This explores the events that transpired between Skizzy and Pat during show night. This story is canonical for Darrell's route.

It's a very spicy story. So, please don't read this one in public 😌. Have fun, y'all!

Staccato 4 Updates!

Hey y'all :3. I got all the assets I need for Staccato 4! Going to push to have it up and running for y'all by Sunday (May 19).

Just need to tweak a couple of things and add some sound design. After that, it should be good to go :3.

As a reminder, Staccato is available to Dorian Tier subscribers and above.

🦁💖

Hayley Reveal!

Hey friends. Happy Mother's day!

It's time to reveal the first mom sprite for ChoPro! Meet Hayley Gordon, everyone.

Hayley is Vin's fiancee, mother to baby Rhea, and Darrell's soon-to-be sister-in-law. We'll be meeting her in Build 5 and she'll be a recurring character in Darrell's route. She'll show up in some other routes as well.

Some more facts about her!

• She's 30 years old.

• She's a guitarist.

• She loves punk and alternative ro...

She's Almost Ready :3

New devlog!

Updates for May 2024.

Uh-oh 👀

What in the Staccato is going on here?

Who's This?? 👀

New character sprite is in the works! Here's a little preview u.u

Small Update on Staccato 4

Hi friends!

Just want to give you some updates on the new Staccato.

It's all written and revised! That said, I think it's more realistic to say it'll be dropping this May. I wanted to get it out before the end of the month, but the last thing I want to do is rush something out and not have it be up to my standards.

Keep your eye out for when it drops!

Last Week to place an order for Merch Drop 1

Hello everyone!

Made a new devlog. There's one week left to get your paws on what's available for Merch Drop 1. As reminder, this is only available to folks who have US mailing addresses.

As a heads up, Merch Drop 2 will be a different format. There will be four curated collections of prints and stickers that will be available instead of providing an open menu. If there's anything you see on the menu that you really want, it may be gone soon.

Updates, updates, updates! :>

Hey y'all! Bowser here.

Just dropping off some hot updates for you. Been doing a lot of work on putting everything together and I wanna tell you what we've been up to!

Build 5

• I'm about halfway done with the initial writing phase. I still have a few thousand words to go. After writing, it's off to the races to get everything into RenPy and get voice actors their lines.

• Our new sprite is underway! Can't wait for you all to meet her!

New Darrell CG Sketch

Hey y'all! Got something fun for you today 😌

Sneak Peak for Build 5

Hey y'all! This is very short sneak peak for Build 5. The poll seemed... inconclusive. So I decided to give it a try! It's only a couple hundred words, but let me know what you think! If y'all like this I'll post more!

Mixolydian Tier is LIVE! Merch Drop 1 is now happening!

Hey friends.

It's time! Merch Drop 1 is up and running :3. Right now you can sign up for the Mixolydian tier. It costs $20.00 USD and there are 20 slots available.

As a reminder, I can only ship domestically at this time. So you must be able to receive your package to a United States of America address in order to receive your merchandise.

Right now, this merch drop is just a secret between me and all you lovely active Patrons. I will announce it to our community Discord ser...

Merch Drop 1 will start this week. Keep your eyes out for the Mixolydian tier!

Hey y'all. I'm getting close to getting all my ducks in a row to make Merch Drop 1 happen. I'll be announcing it sometime this week once I get all the graphics made.

You all are the first to hear about this! I will not announce the new tier publicly for a few days.

Also... I may announce it tomorrow on April 1. NO it will not be an April Fool's joke. I promise 😅

A question for y'all 👀

Hey, friends!

In the interest of making sure I'm giving y'all some more content that'll make your subscription worth while, I was thinking about spoiling some of the first few paragraphs of Build 5. Would you be interested in that? Or would you prefer to wait until everything all done and built into the game?

Leave a comment and/or vote in the poll and let me know what you think!

New Devlog! Survey, Build 5 Updates, Pace of Development, & More!

March 2024 Updates!

Heya! It's Bowser.

Been a few days since I last talked to y'all. Just wanna give you some updates.

• Working on making Merch Drop 1 happen next weekend or the weekend after. Stickers and prints for ChoPro and BYD will be available at a new $20 tier (there will be limited slots, US shipping only).

• I'm aiming to release a Staccato update sometime in April. Keep your eye out!

• Build 5 is underway. Writing and visual design are in the early st...

New Patreon TOS Updates and what it means for ChoPro (as of now)

Hey friends. Bowser again.

Patreon's TOS has updated for creators and seems to be maligned towards NSFW furry creators. For the sake of being direct, I will tell that, as of now, I have not received any warnings or indications from Patreon that anything different will be happening to this page. I have every reason to believe that the content I post for y'all abides by their current terms. There's no reason to believe the ChoPro Patreon page will go anywhere.

However, things could ...

New Dave Portraits (by Drake)

Hey y'all! Giving you some exclusive art. This was made by our lovely sprites artist, Drake! You can also find him on BlueSky, too :3.

Gonna keep this exclusive for a couple months. Enjoy~

Build 4's out! Now what?

Hey y'all :3.

Been taking a few days to cool down after the release of Build 4. Just want to loop you in on what will be happening in the coming months.

Merch Drop 1 is planned for this spring. Stickers and prints will be available from ChoPro and Before You Depart. I'm hoping to drop it before the end of March, but we'll see how it pans out 😅.

Build 5 is underway! I'm aiming for a summertime release. This will be Day 6 retold from Darrell's route. I've written down the f...

FAFO - Bowser Puma & Rhythm Bastard (Shownight Showcase)

Hey y'all, here's the last song from the show night line up! This is FAFO, performed by Karcenogen (Darrell, April, Vin, and Pat's band).

This is the first Chord Progressions track that has my musical signature on it :3. I composed the main hook, most of the guitar parts (including the solo!), all of the bass parts, much of the drum parts, a good chunk of the lyrics, and Rhythm Bastard filled in the gaps :3. He mi...

Some Merch Drop 1 Updates

Hey y'all! Just want to fill you in on merch stuff.

I was hoping to have Merch Drop 1 release this upcoming weekend at the same time as the public release of Build 4, but I think it's gonna have to wait until March.

I'll be honest, I'm starting to see some early signs of burnout. I want to make sure Build 4's public release goes smoothly, then I need to take a couple weeks to myself and get the Merch going (hopefully) before April.

Thanks for your patience! Can't wait for y'...

Titan - Gator Tots (Shownight Showcase)

Hey y'all!

The second track for our show night showcase has been completed! The track's called "Titan" and is the song performed by Sands of Saturn. This is Dave, Cliff, and April's band.

This track was composed and produced by the fantastic Gator Tots! He was a big help. I originally recruited another musician to create this piece, but he ended up needing to step away from the project. I had to scramble to f...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Everyone's favorite(?) bear is here to wish you a wonderful Valentine's Day 💝💝💝

This one's a Patreon exclusive until next year :3.
