Hey! LG here. Hope the winter holidays are treating you well. Before I get into the retrospective, an update on the next update. We effectively tripled the dialog in Joker's Trip, added a new Joker scene, and added a new mechanic where girls can leave once they earn enough dough (as well as a bun...

Imagine if you will, being asked to write three characters. No not "abc" but three fully realized fictional characters with hopes and dreams.

Hey!
So, TT had (elective, non-emergency) surgery this month. Recovery and his other jobs took a big chunk out of his Joker’s Trip work, hence why it’s been pretty quiet around here. He's doing better now and has been trucking along on Meredith’s update, and just has one more CG...

Boy, this one took a lot out of us! New mechanics, new graphics, new scenes, new sprites, new menus...but it was worth it! The Crowd + Gallery Update is now out and playable! This is our biggest update yet, so you’ll forgive that we took a little longer to cook it.

i always forget that devlogs don't need to be a full 'here's how we did it!' process post so much as they can just be 'here's what we're working on!' posts. it's my comic artist background. surely everybody wants to know exactly how i do what i do rather than just that i'm doing it.
