This probably isn't going to be a very long Play Sheet/Progress Report, but there's some stuff that probably deserves some updating, clarity, where we're at, and stuff of that nature. So, without further ado. . .
• Render-wise, we're sitting at 970 still renders right now (have to specify since some devs are starting to add animation frames into that number. Which just comes off as disingenuous. We still have a good ways to go, but we're already a lot further than where we were with Episode 2.
•You can see more specific numbers on the tracker pinned at the top of our Patreon page (or elsewhere, depending on where you're viewing this.).
•Still no lewd animations yet, but we're up to six non-SFW animations. Lewd animations will be coming, though. As mentioned, NSFW content will be slightly sparser than the previous two updates as I want to dedicate as much time as possible to getting the characters developed.

• We've uploaded the entire (nearly, still fighting some copyright stuff) OST to YouTube if you'd prefer to listen there. Quite a lot longer than I expected. S01E02 is coming soon:

• There's going to be a few redesigns happening in Episode 3 that'll only appear in Episode 3 and beyond (to avoid restarting). Namely, the Quick Menu. I couldn't quite figure out how to hide it with the way I type/write. A simple "hide'" toggle would only last until I accidentally used "Window HIde" or "Window Show". So, I've moved the quick menu to the far right side of the screen and made it collapsible. Imagebuttons will likely be updated (and made slightly larger) with it.
• Further, I'll be changing the layout of the music/jukebox page for Episode 3's music and beyond. Instead of a imagebutton with an album cover, I'll be putting the song + artist on a smaller button with a play button and link to their SM account/page/website. This will allow me to simply type instead of having to create 2 new imagebuttons every time I use a song. It might not look as good, but I feel like it'll allow me to get it out a little bit faster.
• On the topic of music, it looks like Storyblocks is out of the equation again. They're not allowing adult content to be used with their music. Same goes for every other music website (e.g. Epidemic, etc.) out there. None really want to associate with adult content. Not without dropping $2500/year first. So, gonna either need a lot more support to make that happen, or going with a couple smaller options, alongside the free music out there. Obviously the latter is going to be more ideal for the time being, so we'll likely just be going with that.
• Episode 2.5 is likely still a go, as well. I've gotten a decent number of people reaching out to offer pieces they caught. Which has been extremely helpful. I'll likely to a hardcore playthrough at some point and adjust some dialogue/spellings/etc. before putting it up here.
That's all there is for now (I think). Just wanted to give a short update on the stuff currently happening around MTC. Along with sharing a few preview images from the upcoming Episode 3, of course.
