Hey Patrons,
Compymono here! It's time for another development report on Nekojishi: Lin & Partners and Astatos!
This month we've made good progress on lots of new artwork for L&P and Astatos, along with a lot of programming work for Cascade Trial in Astatos. (I also personally worked on some pretty big releases for Pawprint Press as well!).
We've also put out t...

Hey Patrons,
It’s time for another public update on what we’ve been working on for Lin & Partners! As this is a public update, it will cover some things included in previous month's Patreon blogs, but there's some new stuff in here also!
We feel it’s important that all supporters of L&P get to see what we’ve been working on, even if the content is in an earlier stage— so we hope that work presented in our updates w...

Hey Patrons,
It's time for some updates from this past month. Firstly, the Steam Summer Sale is live! Nekojishi and Astatos are included with the DLC and soundtracks too!
These sales events help support our team a lot, so we'd appreciate if you'd help spread the word to anyone who may be interested! https://store.steampowered.com/developer/StudioKlondike

Hey Patrons,
Compymono here! For those who don't know, I handle the majority of the graphic design and packaging for Pawprint Press!
This past month I was asked to help migrate the site to a newer version of Shopify. (the service we use to run the Pawprint Press store) At the same time I took the chance to review the site design and look for ways I could improve it.
Here's an early look at the main gameplay background and design process for the upcoming roguelike mode in Astatos, Cascade Trial.

Since many things are at an intermediate stage, I'm not quite ready to write up a dedicated background blog on any given topic, so I wanted to give a quick report of what we've been working on this month instead.

Hey Patrons,
Compymono here, this month I wanted to share some of the design work we’ve been working on for Lin & Partners!
For some background, in the game there are real-time card battles called Debates. In these Debates, players use Argument Cards to deal damage to their opponent. While overall this is still a work in progress, there’s some cool design work we’ve been working on for it.

Hi Patrons,
With the Lunar New Year behind us, we wanted to give everyone a quick update on some things that we've been working on over the past few months!
Hey Patrons, Compymono here!
This month I've been working on a bunch of stuff, and one of those things is a complete redesign to the store UI in Astatos!
This coming February will mark the addition of the 31st Hero Skin to the game, and things are beginning to stretch the limits of the existing store UI for a few reasons:
Here's a look at the Nekojishi sticker set we worked on with @Relax_Lion to release at Midwest FurFest 2023! With these designs we wanted to reference both the outfits seen in the original game, and those from Lin & Partners.
For those interested in using these stickers, we've also made them available on Telegram and our offi...

Hey Patrons, Compymono here!
As some may have missed our announcements on our Twitter and Discord, we attended MFF this year as Pawprint Press! There was a lot going on the past month and more in preparation, including lots of travel, planning and design work from myself. So I apologise for not being able to update this page until now.
I prepared a lot of announcements and promotional assets while travelling for this event, many of which the morning or hours befor...

Today I wanted to share one of the smaller projects I've been working on over the past month outside of Astatos and Nekojishi L&P.
For context, we've been aware that due to some depreciating libraries on Android, Beek is going to be needing a new patch to keep all it's functions working on the Google Play store starting next month.
At first I was hoping to be able to just open the project files and update everything to the n...

Hey Patrons,
We wanted to give everyone a quick update on what we’ve been working on over the past few months. Here's an overview of what we've been working on since our last update in March:
Hey Patons,
Compymono here again! I wanted to give everyone a little look into some of the progress behind our next major update for Astatos releasing next week. (Hopefully!)
Since our last blog, I’ve been hard at work fleshing out the story trial content and finalising the gameplay for the public release.
First thing to mention is that the “Rogue Trial” mode has been finalised, including a few mechanics changes since we last discussed it.
