So, I’m officially off from my day job for the remainder of 2022, which naturally means switching back to full-time VNdev mode!

My main goals are going to be the Christmas artwork (or at least that one was, but my part on it is actually done now, meaning that all that’s left to do is for Natsu to properly color it) and the script for GENBA no Kizuna‘s fourth chapter.

This week, I have finished up Himatsu‘s final interrogation route (at least as far as I currently can… I will need to get back to some parts of it once I get to the beginning of the final chapter, because things have changed a little ever since I wrote the outline and so they now have to be switched around).

So, this past week, I’ve finally started work on the last set of investigation routes for GENBA no Kizuna‘s penultimate chapter!
I’m currently working on the laundry room investigation as well as Himatsu‘s final interrogation simultaneously and have made some pretty good progress on them, adding up to about another ~7000 words of script.

The thing about the laundry room is that, as I have mentioned before, I also need to work on the background art for it at the same time, so, despite this investigation actually being a shorter one in terms of script, it’ll still take me a bit to fully finish it.

Therefore, the main focus lies on Himatsu‘s route at the moment, which I hope to finish within the next couple of days.
Of course, Keiichi also has another route here which, similar to Rei‘s, requires new background art. Only Shinketsu isn’t getting an individual route this time as, from this point onward, he accompanies Rei.

It’s difficult to say how long all of this is going to take to finish, but my goal still is to at least get the script side of things completed by the end of the month.

Anyway, that’s all I can share in terms of progress on the actual VN at the moment. I have, however, also finished setting up its Steam store page. All that’s left to do now is to cut a trailer together and get it approved before we can publish it, so hopefully things will also go smoothly there, too!

Now, while I’m gonna get back to work right away, I wish you to enjoy the rest of your weekend! Until next Saturday, take care :3

The final month of the year is here, which also tends to be the busiest one usually, and there certainly is a lot I’d still like to get done before we transition into 2023. Good thing I’m gonna be on vacation from my day job soon!

My main focus during that time will remain the script for GENBA no Kizuna‘s penultimate chapter, which, ideally, I’d like to get done within the next four weeks. I’m currently wrapping up the conclusion scene for the second set of investigation routes, so that I can dive into the third and final one this coming week.
