Hello! This is Happy Slugs, the development team behind .
Our hearts are racing—this is our first devlog of the year! We'll share the progress updates you've been curious about right away.
● Chapter 3 Progress

Art

2: Event CG & Ending CG (100%)
Translation

2: Japanese translation outsourcing (80%) New!

Chapter 3 programming is nearing completion except for a few critical parts. If possible, we plan to finish programming in early February and complete art work and translation outsourcing based on the final script.
● Chapter 4 Progress

While Chapter 3 programming has been progressing, we've also been working on the detailed scenario for Chapter 4, the final chapter. We've refined the existing framework with additional lore and have nearly completed the overall development and branching subdivision. Please note that actual dialogue writing and programming will begin after Chapter 3's update.
