Happy New Year, everyone!
As we step into 2026, I wanted to share a special render to set the tone for the year ahead. In the image, you can see Kuroha participating in a Japanese tradition known as
Kakizome (書き初め). This is the "First Writing" of the year, a traditional event where people use calligraphy to write kanji that represent their resolutions or hopes for the coming year.
For this year, the chosen word is the one you see on the scroll:
舞 (Mai).
In Japanese,
Mai translates to
"Dance." But for us and the development of this game, it means much more than just movement. It represents the idea of
"Moving Forward" - not just walking, but moving with grace, energy, and intent. It is about finding our rhythm and "dancing" through the challenges of development to create something beautiful.
There is another layer to this word that I love. In Vietnamese, the word
"Mai" means
"Tomorrow."
I think that fits our situation perfectly. We are "dancing" toward "tomorrow." And speaking of tomorrow, I know many of you have been waiting patiently for news on the next build.
The Next Update, I am incredibly excited to announce that the upcoming update is dedicated to
delivering exactly what you have been asking for.
We have been listening closely to your feedback, and this next release is going to focus heavily on the lewd scenes. We are pushing the boundaries to ensure that when "tomorrow" comes, it brings the experience you've been waiting for.
Thank you for your continued support. Let’s make this a year of great movement and bright tomorrows.
See you in the next update!
