A concentration on Cassie appears one emphasis for the next installment. I could be wrong, though.

I think Roman said it was Monica and Lupita next as they had the least progress so far. I guess we will have to see if he confirms anything or does more livestreams.
Oh man, that's unfortunate. Don't get me wrong, I love this game and I'd say this is one of the best games on this forum (especially in terms of writing). It just means that I might have to wait about 16 more months for some new Jane content.

You might be in luck, I misread the changelog on OP. it does mention jane
In Progress
Music and Sound Fixes: Now that I have a new object managing all of the game's music, I need to spend some time normalizing the volume on all the tracks to remove the unwanted static. This object will also smooth the audio transitions between tracks and require me to use less code when calling and managing music in the script.
Once I have this done for the music, I'll repeat the process for the sound effects.
Android Version: Now that I have more time working from home and additional artists contributing to the game, this has freed up some of my time to begin digging into the terribly complex world of Android. I've nearly completed some online training in Android programming and have doubled down on breaking apart the Renpy/Android relationship.
Completing a fully functional Android version with all the bells and whistles currently available in the desktop version is a top priority along with creating new content. So stay tuned for progress updates in this department.
New Content: This week I will begin work on Cassie's 3rd Chapter in the game. Simultaneously I plan to spend much of this week and next generating enough content to keep the contributing artists busy. Right now they've caught up to what I had available and have been patiently waiting on me while I complete this update. Now it's time to feed the machine.
If all goes well, we'll be seeing some new Monica, Lupita and Jane content about the same time as we are releasing our Cassie update! Fingers crossed mates

Yeah, I wasn't just flapping my gums here ...
Another clue to consider is the series of Cassie renders in recent updates (also posted to this thread)
I know I am crazy but Cassie is the least interesting of the girls (to me) so all the focus on Cassie disappoints. I am looking forward to more Jane, Lola, pretty much everyone else though.Yeah, I wasn't just flapping my gums here ...

Diagnosis of "crazy": confirmedI know I am crazy but Cassie is the least interesting of the girls (to me) so all the focus on Cassie disappoints. I am looking forward to more Jane, Lola, pretty much everyone else though.

We've actually had very little of Cassie thus far (and no erotic content aside from a flash), so it seems naturally her turn. It may be that seeing more of her will add to interest in her character. And let's recall that she was the gateway to introducing Jane in this VN.
Cassie is bland in looks (to me) and doesn't have a stand out personality, though the personality could be improved by learning more about her. The girls were Cassie's friends, I'm not going to give her credit for having friends the MC may want to fuck.
And I don't really care about turns, but I understand why he would develop that way.

2020-10-09 News
I've been meaning to post this for a few days but I wanted to finalize some details before sharing them.
So where are we at? Let's start with the technical stuff.
PC Build
So thanks to all my wonderful patrons, we used the entire sum of this month's Patreon intake to purchase a pair of RTX 2070's for the new PC.
Previous month's contributions have secured the i7processor, the Z390 Mobo, case, coolers, fans, 2TB M2 SSD and the RAM.
All that's left is the OS and about $500 worth of Hard Drive's for additional storage and redundancy.
This close to the final build, I'm going to chip in the remaining $500 out of my own pocket so we can get this PC built and start reaping the benefits before November is done. The last of the parts should be in over the next couple of weeks.
New Content
We've just finished scene 6 of Cassie's next chapter. This marks the half way point of the chapter's completion. Scenes 1 thru 6 of Cassie's chapter contains approximately 7,000 words and around 570 completed images.
There are a few more images I need to re-render to correct some lighting and focus aberrations but I should have it ready for play testing in a couple of days.
What's the Plan?
As soon as I tie up Scene 6 I'll release the test version of v2.x.x with the new material to $10 patrons to bug test. While testing is happening, we'll continue with the live streams and push through to the end of the chapter.
After a couple weeks of testing, when the bugs have been smashed, I'll open up access to the test version to $5 patrons, followed by $1 patrons. You've gone too long without anything in hand and I owe you for your continued patience.
I want to give those who want it, a chance to wet their appetite a bit with the new content while the rest of the chapter is being finished, but only after the bugs have been found by the play testers.
Once the entire chapter is done and has been play tested, I'll issue the final release of the chapter.
Long Term
Right now a week's worth of live streams take about a week to render out. Once the second computer is up and running, we should be able to complete the live stream work and rendering all in the same week. My goal is to see the production speed doubled by the addition of a second machine.
We'll test this theory and if all goes well I'd like to see development of two, maybe three characters at a time as long as the computers can keep up with the queue. I won't know for certain how much we can heap on until after the second machine is up and running and I get a good sense of how fast it can knock out the images.
If this pace can be maintained, that means we'd be completing a scene or more per week!
Exciting things are ahead and I'm super thrilled that we've kept this project alive to this point!
Thank you all again for hanging in there with me while I sort out how best to produce this game and iron out a solid workflow for getting it all down. We're finally hitting our stride!
Salute, and I will talk to you again very soon!

Out of reactions, so will just say looks and sounds excellent.
Nice work respect.
But i am afraid, this update will be too huge. This 570 images are the half? And your images are good very good. I hope this file goes not up to 5GB and more.
Maybe, and only maybe, you are considering to splitt the updatde. Because is sooo long since the last one. Pls

The newly rendered 570 images will add rouhgly 296 MiB to the game's size.Nice work respect.

That being said, it's but an estimate only taking images into account and heavily dependent on the overall complexity range of the current renders and the use of constant quality settings versus
