Wow I forgot I could make devlogs here
Ah....! Let me start off by saying hello! Did not expect to get a lot of traction here in general omg!!! Tysm to people who have followed and whatnot ;;w;;9
A little life update to add some framing. I recently graduated a program for work (that ties into coding, but it's not anything in the gaming industry, this is my passion project space), so i've been on a kick of game work since then!!! During the release to now, I've done a lot in general, but i've really kicked it up!!! I might forget some things, so i'm sorry in advanced!

Things that have been done:
- Forum/Internet design: Major work lately has been on the internet click through in the game. A lot of this has manifested in the workability of the forum pages [which are the most bulky of the internet part of the game, minus perhaps the online videos]. Right now i'm working on the main page of the forum that updates and takes you to each individual page. All of the pages themselves have been put in with functionality, so once the main page is squared away, that's it for that section!
Here's a little taste of how it's been coding it:
- Cheki Rework: All of the cheki in game has been reworked and fully finished! The major thing here is now just placing it in game. This includes 8 variations of each possible cheki you can get at the meet and greet itself. I'm a stickler for detail lol
- Magazine/Magazine reworks: All of the text for the magazines have been placed in the game. However, I still need to add functionality in being able to select it. Also, I've been reworking the look of the images for the magazine, because I felt the art was outdated and I wanted to better represent the look of the magazine pages.
- Sprite Rework: There was a MASSIVE rehauling in how the sprites looked over the summer. Not only were the sprites that were made redone, but a TON more sprites were made for realism reasons. There are around 100 random NPC sprites, as well as multiple cameo characters that are my ocs + some of my girlfriends ocs. Arakawa still has 8 outfits. Akemi also has multiple outfits since she's a main character. I'd take a guess there are about 150 sprites in game. As for what they look like, here's the comparison:

What's next!
Aside from the obvious [finishing the game lol] here are some individual things i'm tackling:
-Forum: As mentioned above, finishing up the main page of the forum. This will take a bit to code, but I think once I hit a good stride it'll be fine. Once thats done, i'll need to connect it to the main home page.
-Magazine Images: As mentioned also above, i'm changing up how the magazine images look. This includes a new format as well.
- Online videos: I'm editing a few video's art. I don't like how some of them look, so instead of dealing with something I dislike, i'll just redraw/reanimate/ect. It's only a couple out of the 8(?) or so.
- Other online functionality: I've been getting the framework for a Yukio OHP to explore. I also still have the framework of Twitter, which will run similarly to how the forum does. It requires a lot less coding however. I have to set up a YA! Like site for a few special things you can purchase. The ??? site needs more content, but it won't require a ton of work either. I'm sure i'm forgetting something here...
- Exploration offline: A lot of the exploration offline just needs dialogue coded in (it's typed up already). Aside from that, it's pretty secure overall. I have a few special coding things that need to be programmed in [such as mood related things] as well.

Anyway! This was a long post, but thank you if you read it and thank you if you've supported me, this project, any of my projects, downloaded the game or even just looked at it! I appreciate everything, thank you all.
