Progress update – 7 new NPCs! (Patreon)

Hello everyone! I've been working on a few NPCs that I needed to complement the story a bit. What do you think?

As you can see, I've added 5 new girls! (Although I showed one of them before, I've now finished her sprite.) Three of them are students, and two are only available in the city. They won't have stories like the main cast, just small interactions and their corresponding scenes, so you don't have to worry about these new characters adding too much to the development time. I also want to clarify just in case that the male characters in this story are only there as supporting characters and won't participate in any scenes. There is no NTR in this game and there never will be.

I've also been expanding the beginning of the game again to make it more interactive. Using AI as part of the process for the backgrounds has been useful, but I've always considered it a very inconsistent tool. Where its use might be more noticeable is mostly in the blurred parts of the backgrounds. My methodology is still the same: I start with a base 3D model, render it, and then work over it by hand with lineart. I hope the AI-assisted parts aren't noticeable enough to be distracting.

For this update, interactions with the NPCs will be limited: one kissing scene with the alt redhead and another scene in the bathroom with the blonde office lady. But if you're interested, I plan to make content for all of these characters across several of the "jobs."

I hope to have the update ready by the end of next month. It won't be long now! Thank you for your patience.
