Hey guys!
Hoo boy, this update sure is...something. We're getting into the heavy stuff now, so make sure you're ready for it.
On the art side, Dev managed to revamp everyone's favorite lion to match how he draws the character now. We're really happy with how it turned out, but let us know what you think, too!
I anticipate Act III for Bryan to finish in the next two or three updates, after which we will swap over to the next route in line: Carlos.
See you all next month...

And we’re back! Hope everyone’s had a good couple months!
This month’s build is the continuation of Bryan’s route. Our friend Kane is turning out to be quite the foil for Bryan, don’t you think? I wonder how that date is going to turn out, hehehe…

On the art side of things, Dev has fully revamped both Bryan and Kane’s sprites. Expect a lot of new expressions for both of them!
Be sure to let us know what you think about build 40! See you all again next month!

Hey guys!
First off, we’d like to apologize for the incoming gap between this build and the next. Not to try and justify ourselves, but working on both Homecoming and Santa Lucia in December (alongside work, commissions, and general end-of-year festivities) really took a toll on the both of us. A toll we did not realize had set in until...

Happy New Year everyone!
As those of you familiar with our other project know, we managed to push out the biggest update for Homecoming ever this month. Unfortunately I overextended myself in the process, so instead of trying to cram in a lengthy update for Santa Lucia in the same month (alongside assorted holiday shenanigans), I decided ...

Hey guys!
I've been swamped this month by a combination of day job workload and wedding anniversary stuff. To ensure the quality of the next update isn't affected, I'm pushing back the build drop to sometime this weekend (Feb 4 or 5). There's also a good chance we're going to take a break from SL development in February (and pause charges as a result). I need a bit of time to recharge, sorry!
Thank you guys for understanding, see you when the next build is finished!

This month we’re pushing both the common route and Bryan’s route further by one day each. I took a lot of risks with the writing this time, I hope everything worked out! We’re at the point where big shake-ups are starting to happen, so stay on your toes.

Okay, so I know I'm almost a week late, but I started working on this very close to the day of, and wasn't able to finish, but I figured you guys wouldn't mind seeing it anyway, even with the delay!
As for the picture itself, Shay's pulling out a somewhat obscure reference that I wonder how many of you are going to get. Let us know if you do get it!
