Devlog 31: Testing & Translation
With the beta now available for a week, now the progress graph looks like this!

I won't be needing this progress graph anymore soon... :') Say goodbye to the File 02 progress graph everybody. :')
With the feedback from the beta implemented, we have begun the translation process and will be launching File 02 when translation is completed. While I'm waiting for the translation to finish, I've begun writing Hangout Two.
I've been trying to think of ways to make the other four files' development go a bit faster. My new plan is to do the hardest tasks simultaneously So I will be writing and creating the backgrounds for Files 03 & 04, and Files 05 & 06 at the same time. This means when I release File 03, File 04 will already have been written and the backgrounds will be ready to go. And then the same for Files 05 & 06. I'm not sure how this will turn out, but one advantage is that I do think coming up with the mysteries for the next four files will be easier than it was for File 02. I will explain more about the challenges I faced with File 02 in future behind-the-scenes content!
Until next time!
