Wait for the beta, at least. Look through this thread and there's plenty of freak-outs over buggy alphas.

Besides, she is game director (also on IG) not game designer so she is not in any design or programming team, more like she's in narrative and quality of the game stuff
WOW. Apparently this reworked C1 has more illustrations in it then the original C1, C2 and C3 combined.
Sadly no. This is something the creator said in a public post about the update. I hope someone will upload it soon though.

Hi guys!

($20)You have no idea what this last year of changes and work has been for us.
This chapter is the result of multiple choices that I've been making about the game's new focus, some of which quite risky. Making so many decisive changes is always scary, but I hope you like the choices I've made.
On the art:
- The reworked C1 has more illustrations than the old C1, C2 and C3 put together. Not bad, huh?
- We've added a completely new character: Juliet. We hope you fall in love with her as much as we did making her.
- We've gone for a more pictoric, and with that we've added some comic-book/vignete-style. We think they add to the overall concept.
On the script:
- There are 3 completely new scenes. Considering that the old C1 had just 8 scenes, this is more than a third of a chapter that we've added!
- The rest of them have been all partially rewritten, some even changing completely (e.g. Sophie's texting scene).
- It has all been proofread thoroughly, adapting the script to a more correct English
On the programming:
- We've added more point and click mechanics, to make the player more of a participant of the dynamics.
- We have changed thew sprite system to prevent erros from crashing the game.
- We have improved upon the flags and variable system to avoid possible narrative errors in the future.
-Improved the phone iu, to make it more dynamic.
On the music:
- There are 4 completely new music pieces, commissioned specifically for the videogame. We'll soon make a patreon post about it to tell you how this experience has been.
On the team:
-As you know we had a new concept artist (Fausto), but also a programmer, TheDarkFable, with whom we worked since the beggining of LC as an assistant. We worked as well with a studio to commission some backgrounds. And we added to the team a part-time assistant to help us both with the translation and the proofreading (you may have alredy noticed him on discord: Mr. Bergamot), I hope it shows in the English level! And we also worked with a music composer for the OST of LC.
That's quite a team, now! It's been a big investment of money, and therefore a risk, but I think it was a good decision.
And, if I'm not forgetting something, that's all.
As always, none of this could have been posible without you guys. Thank you for the trust and patience, we know the idea of a redesign is the opposite of sexy but I hope that I was able to find a sunny side to all this and bring you something worth the wait.
We want to remind you that this is an alpha build and, therefore, you can expect to find bugs. If you want to report the bugs, do so in the designated channel in our discord server (#bug-tester-chat), it is always a big help for us. The gallery will not be unlockable till BETA version.
C1_BETA_REWORKED will have some new content (as always) and all the possible bugs fixes and it will be launched in a week.
So we hope you enjoy your time playing the game. Don't be shy and let us know your thoughts! ❤

I like the details that have been put into the background of this image. If that is from the new studio commission, it's money well spent. Doing that will allow the permanent team members to focus on their primary tasks in addition to it adding to the quality of the game.
They seem to have put a good team together. Let's hope they can stay together.

Hmm, yeah, it's a lot better than I anticipated, so I'll continue to follow the development of the game.

I like the world details a lot more, the previous art though great, felt a bit empty. This one however seems to be bustling with activity.
