Hello again everyone, Duhop here.\n\nAfter spending the last week or so sick in bed, I\'m finally back at it and ready to share our progress for September :D\n\nWhile we have been making progress on the development side, there isn\'t really much new and exciting to talk about. We\'ve been biting down on the meat of what we need to get done, which basically just means a whole lot of writing for me, and plenty more of the exact same sprite and CG work I talked about over the past two months for the artists.\n\nMuch more interestingly, we had an amazing boost to visibility this month thanks to the wonderful Fall in Love community VN fest run by Studio lan! In contrast to the overcrowded official Steam festivals we\'ve taken part in, the hand-picked, romance-focused Fall in Love fest blessed us with a huge influx of visibility and wishlists. If that\'s how you found us, welcome!!\n\nStudio lan also very kindly provided some awesome templates and assets for use on social media during the festival, including a chibi base that Paintedtrash used to make this absolutely adorable sticker:\n\n\n\nThe whole experience has really made me fall in love all over again with the VNdev community. I think coming together like this and sharing audiences is something that benefits everyone, players and developers alike. I\'m definitely going to be on the lookout for any similar opportunities going forward, and when the time is right, I\'d like to try and work with some more great and relevant devs to cross-promote our games!\n\nI can\'t say for certain how consistently effective or important this kind of collaboration really is just yet, but it\'s definitely something to think about if you\'re in game dev yourself. This very likely won\'t be the last time I mention it.\n\nThanks so much for reading and continuing to support us!\n\n-Duhop\n
