Hi everybody.
I hope you've all had a great week.
We've received an email from Patreon to the effect that starting from the first day of August, current patrons from more countries and regions will see
sales tax/VAT/GST added to their pledges. Canada, Thailand, and the states of Florida, and Kansas, are the latest additions. Bear in mind that this addition is done by Patreon based on regional government requirements, and we haven't changed our tiers. The complete list of countries and US states impacted can be read

Okay, now the report:
Chestnut:
Chestnut completed the most challenging background in the game so far (her words). Even though she had Santa's excellent sketch, the artwork had so many parts that coloring them all using a good scheme and making sure that the scene looks pleasant, rather than just a jumble of items, was time-consuming. After that, she began work on cutscenes from events that will take place in that environment and needed the background art before being designed. She also started working on other cutscenes and prepared three other works done earlier to add to the game.
Pistachio:
I spent most of the week testing and editing the content of the update. There are a few scenes that I think need to be fixed to have a different tone. I also have to redo the code for the hints since after some changes it doesn't work anymore. More than a few of the arts need to be edited as well (mostly minor ones, but a few of them need to be redone), and Chestnut will work on them once she's done with the main art. Halfway through the week, I took a break from editing to write the convos and code them in. That's done. But I still haven't posed them. If you're following the progress tracker, keep in mind that I have and will add more bugs/edit tasks as I continue to test and encounter things that Chestnut or I need to revisit, which is why the polish percentage may appear to be receding. But we'll polish them all one by one and hopefully have an update you'll like.
Next week's plan:
The most important thing I want to do in the coming week is starting the sex scenes. Chestnut will take a break from the background+cutscene work to draw the base of the sex scenes for me to work on. Before that, I will keep testing and looking for ways to improve the game. If I'm done with that (I doubt it) before Chestnut's art is ready, I'll spend the remaining time posing the convos so that we're done with those as well.
That's all, folks.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Cheers
