Hello!

We're getting closer and closer to the finish line 🤩.

I've already started working on the path-specific content, and I think it looks pretty sweet so far. 😊

There's still a lot ahead of me, and since this will be one of the most—if not the most—important updates (thanks to the path choice), I want to make sure it's a good one. That's why I'll put extra time and effort into it and upload it when I'm truly happy with it. You know that, sadly, switching to Koikatsu Sunshine set some things back, but after working on it for three weeks now, I know it was a great decision.

One of the most important and noticeable changes for you will be the animations. Before, I was recording them with a third-party tool, then converting them through multiple steps... It was annoying as hell for a lot of reasons, especially because the animations often lagged, leading to some stutters and not-so-smooth playback. Which meant I had to record it until the game is kind enough not to stutter as much. Then I had to match the animation lengths perfectly in the app to make them loop well. Let's just say it wasn't a great experience. 😅 Now, animations will actually be rendered, which means they'll play out smoothly at 60 fps with no stutters.

The downside is that it takes a lot of time, which slows me down a bit too. But it will be worth it!

Here's what I've done this week:
