Haven't forgotten about this. Will be opening artist applications for this project this coming Monday!
As for that new artist for my next project after DSPPA (or rather, concurrent to), an update with more details will be coming soon.
Next week?
The week after?
But in any case, sometime this month for sure. Please stay tuned! ^^

Hello folks! Been a long while, but thought I'd give a small update. DSPPA is still being worked on, and I'll try to push out a devlog post sometime next week!
Do give the DSPPA demo a try if you haven't already! ^^

Here’s a second life advice for you artists / creatives out there:
DON’T COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS! Because even though you think bad about yourself as a creative you should always be proud of the things you create. Your stuff is special and you should be proud that you made something special.

Excuse the short notice, but guess what?
I'm traveling to Japan tomorrow 😆🇯🇵
Been planning this trip for well over a year. This is a much needed break from my day job (haven't taken PTO in a long while) and being a VN dev... I'm stoked. ^_^ #travel

This is our every-once-in-a-while plea to please consider giving our game a review if you liked it! We would love to hit 50 on Steam someday so we can get a bit more visibility.
Beyond that, we just like seeing what people think of what we've done. As we work on new stuff, it keeps us motivated 💗

NGL one of the best parts of being a #vndev is the ability to create your own waifus (or husbandos); for me, Café Memoria's Mikaela to Paulina in my recent project.
