Here's what's in this update:
Lots of Drama going on in the NSFW game industry lately, but the show must go on.
This update is entirely story-focused, and brings some major events that push the game into its tipping point. I had some trouble coming up with certain story beats for one particular event chain, which is part of why it took a bit longer than I'd hoped. But I'm happy with how it turned out, and even more excited about where the game is headed from here.
CHANGELOG:
- Major focus on Ayumi's storyline
- 6 New story events, with some juicy Netorase content~ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
- 15,520 New words
- 743 New renders
- 37 New animations
Hope you enjoy this one!

What's next?
For the next update, I'm planning on focusing on some of the Management features, mainly the 'Call Student' interaction. My plan is to have at least one interaction with every student, and if possible, also expand on other interaction options as well. I'll try to work on that as quickly as possible so the story events can resume after. I'll give more info on the Devlogs to come.

Quick Tangent: The Itch.io Situation
As I'm sure many of you probably already know,

recently "deindexed"
all of its NSFW games from their catalogue, making it nearly impossible for people to find
any adult game on their platform.
This was due to pressure from their payment processors to remove certain games from their website, so they went ahead and hit the nuclear option as a result, leaving everyone to figure out where things go from here.
This is obviously a massive blow to the NSFW game industry as a whole.
Now, I'm not here to argue about which games deserve to be removed or who's in the right or wrong, but the reality is that this hurts devs and players alike,
and it sets a very worrying precedent. It shows that we really don't have control over what we can support or spend our money on.
Unfortunately, since no platform feels truly safe for NSFW creators, I'm not sure how much I can say here directly, but it shouldn't be too hard to find ways to support this fight against this weird censorship we're having. My goal here is only to raise awareness, but if you can, please take your time to look into this issue and help in any way.
