0.5.0 Dev. Check In
Added 2025-06-11 20:19:46 +0000 UTCHi all,
It's still early days for 0.5.0 development, but I thought I'd do a check in anyway.
Before I get into how development for 0.5.0 is going, let me share the new full body sprite for Luca's layered top outfit!

I'm excited to say that it will be coming in a patch along with some typo and bug fixes before 0.5.0 comes out. SeiKo093 has really done an excellent job yet again.
On to development of 0.5.0...
So far the script for 0.5.0 has 15,300 words. And I'm not even done with the class scenes yet, let alone the heart scenes or video zone or movie theater. This update is on pace for 30k words. Which would make it by far the largest update so far, story-wise.
This makes sense, because I have a LOT planned for this update. I could put some spoilers here, but instead I'll just say the 0.5.0 will bring the start of Chapter 2.
Non-spoilery features I plan to implement, but are subject to change:
A new learnable skill
Dorm decorations
Giving gifts to contacts
Greater Artifacts for battle
At least 2 new movie theater shows
Another week of content
New Video Zone
Next level of heart events for all contacts
A lot more that I can't share because it would spoil things!
This list may shrink, or even grow as development continues, but these are my current targets.
I don't have a time table yet for when 0.5.0 will be out, but as I get further along in the dev process I'll get a better idea and share an estimate. For now, I appreciate your patience.
That's it for this check in. Like I said, these are still early days for this update and I'm almost exclusively working on writing the script still. More news will come as it is available!
As always, thanks for playing and thank you for your support!
