Yes! So first of off, yeah Live2D took way longer to make than expected. As in 2.5 of the last 3 months were spent just on the Wistala sprite.
So we're redirecting a bit. Ari is going back to making new content. I am going to hire a separate animator to convert her sprites into Live2D (At least where I have the spare funds to do so)
For the next update, we're looking at 3-4 new scenes, 2-3 new sprites into Live2D and a smattering of art for the medallion skill tree. The focus is going to shift soon to working on the combat system though. It's going to take a lot of work and it needs to have a playable skeleton of the system in before the next main story mission. After that it will be time t ogo back and work on some mini-games for the open world. From there most of the core systems will be in place and I can start really cranking out story and scenes.
