July 19th, 2021 Assuming no issues arise, Aspiring Light is set to release on August 6th, 2021. The idea for the project was conceived about four years ago and has vastly changed over that time (thankfully, as the original concept was subpar, to say the least). The initial thought was pretty much just: let's make a visual novel. And so I did. Obviously, there's a bit more to it than just that. It has been quite the experience working slowly but surely to write, compose, and compile components of the game. In all honesty, it was a bit more enduring than anticipated, especially without prior experience in doing stuff like this. There were many hardships on both personal and global scales, but seeing everything come together in the last year or so has been nice. I'd like to thank the artists for their pivotal role in bringing the concept to reality, the testers for their resourceful feedback, and friends for their support. I hope the general public finds it worthwhile. And if not, well, at least it's free-to-play. If you do enjoy the experience and are feeling generous, the soundtrack will also be available to purchase for $3.99 USD. Shilling over. - J
