Just a quick update, almost done. Again it's the scripting holding us back, lots of faces, many reactions. We're almost there though.

I wouldn't be surprised if we have 2 updates in April, seeing as Fiona's art is done, outline is done and story is being finalized. That should get us back on track for the roadmap.

Thanks again for your patience <3

Translation
Much love to the dev fazx for making . We tried implementing translation for like 14 major languages locally, but ran into so many issues from fonts to spacing to OS compatibility to exporting all our dialogue, I mean you name it.
uses cloud translation on the fly which opens up our game to over 120 languages! That's insane! That's why we've pledged Diamond Tier status to VN Translator, because I know a lot of gamers will get use out of this greatly needed tool. If you find the tool useful as well for the many VN games out there, please consider pledging!
How Do I use VN Translator?
Simply run the program... and you should be good to go! The Translator should default to Clipboard mode, which we've modified our game to run the text into clipboard for support.

Simply move the translated overlay wherever you want on your pc screen!

I don't see X language listed?
There's a dropdown that lets you switch from DeepL translation to Google, which has more languages, though likely not as top tier quality wise.
Why not mobile translation?
I'll talk with the developer to see if mobile version is something being looked at
Big thanks to fazx!
About the update
The leprechaun update will probably take 2-3 weeks, we have all art finished and story being finalized, and no huge group events that take forever to animate/perform.
Which leaves May & June to catch up on open world content. (FYI in the original roadmap, I never meant May 1st, but rather a May mini update. I'll see what we can do in that regard, it may just have to be a combined one for June.)
Notes
The scenes currently aren't in the Gallery just yet, I didn't want to delay any longer than we already have. I figure I can just bundle them in when Fiona update lands? Or possibly before.
Known Issues
Some rooms may leave you in the starting room after the event. (Story says you run away, but you're still in control in the same room)
Much Love,
DirtySock

I havent played this for a couple updates, has he actually fixed any bugs in this and those updates or is he still ignoring them and creating new ones?

1-3 days for a whole novel? I don't know what they are smoking, but it takes days to iterate and create a consistent prompt for a single character, then potentially hours of generation to nail proper art for each scene if you want actual quality. It can be done for sure, and AI tools can be used to be a great help in creating a VN, but unless they want to produce incoherent mess with shitty art, the whole "1-3 days per game" is utter bullshit. At least with the level of AI tech we currently have.
