Hi everyone! I hope November was a kind month to you! I spent practically all of it developing chapter 4, working day after day to get all the audio edited before sending it off to THK's lovely audio engineer, Natalie van Sistine, for levelling! All the audio for chapter 4 is in the game now, but being that this is a Visual Novel, I still have a lot of art assets left to make, press to reach out to, old and new typos to crush in Spanish... Just the usual, really. And after 3 months of intense work since I first started recording with the voice actors, my back has really taken a toll. If I continue working at this rhythm, I'm going to open up the hernia that had me go on hiatus after chapter 3 again. That's why, I've decided to delay Chapter 4 into early 2023, exact date TBA. I really wanted to make it to the December 8th deadline and celebrate alongside my birthday, but more than that, I want to make sure I can give you the best result I can make and not hurry or leave things half done while I'm murdering myself. Thank you all for all your patience, understanding and support, I hope you have a lovely December! As usual, you can keep up with the project and me more easily on my twitter account, @SandraMJdev I'll go ahead and leave you with some of Ader's wisdom before I go:

• A grand, mysterious tale

  Come, traveler, and listen to the tale of Ader-sind of the Upperfield, the greatest knight the kingdom has ever known! The bravest! The most handsome! The... yeah, no, let's try this again.
  
  

• Choose Ader's fate

  Take care as you play, because your decisions throughout Ader's tale will ultimately impact his relationships and decide the outcome of his story.
  
  

• Fully voice acted and bursting with charisma

  Every character you meet on your journey through Acazhor is fully voiced and overflowing with personality. Dodge prying questions from an enigmatic sorceress, avoid the ire of your grumpy boss, scrape funds together for your next meal with a tone-deaf bard, engage in philosophical conversation with a giant tree man and more.
  
  

• Beautiful illustration and animation

  Closer to a cartoon than simply a visual novel, every scene in The Hayseed Knight is hand drawn and lovingly animated to truly bring the characters and world to life.
  
  

• Passion project

  Created primarily by one dedicated person over the last three years, The Hayseed Knight is a work of love and truly reflects the heart and soul poured into it.
  
  

• Unique Fantasy World

  With deep lore and a history all of its own, the world of The Hayseed Knight extends much farther than this story and is ready for you to dive into using the in-game encyclopedia.
