Saw something of a progress update from ci-en on a Discord server. To quote
"kinda big SnY post on ci-en,
talks about tying to finish the first stage - the boss, some maps, and something else it seems.
also talks about the boss itself, where you need to hide and run away or something, and apparently has 'a smarter AI than SA,' you can hide using the veil or shadows, and the boss apparently can hear noises behind it.
some other uninteresting stuff about cutscenes, h animation technical details, other aspects of the code,
though they say there might be around 10 hcgs in SnY, and that some of sa2's hcg's have been made?
also, ally fox maid"
So yea progress is happening, just a bit too quiet for me tho.
