Developer Note:
The update for April is finally pushing live several month's work of redrawing the in-game art for the Waifu models and clothing. Hopfully the last time I have to do this ;-;
Back in November I made the decision to switch from pixel art into an illustrative art style. I had to learn/relearn the basics, but with a focus on anatomy as well as line, shape, and form. Pixel art is "easy" because with the lessened detail, it makes the viewer's brain do "the work" of creating the image from a bunch of colored boxes. With illustration, it's more detailed and requires a better understanding and foundation of art basics.
I'm not saying I'm a pro by any means, but I feel the art quality has increased with my diligent study and practice. The art is only going to get better from here, right?
At the very least, it's my hope that these redrawn models and clothing look "better" than the pixel-art style I was doing previously. Let's be honest, the feedback (if I received any at all) was always pointing out the "bad art", so it needed to be redone regardless.
The update is also pushed to the Demo, as well as updating the screenshots on the Steam store and website. The website! Yes, that was also redone! It's...umm..."better" in the sense that it's miminal, and information. yep, moving on...
I hope ya'll enjoy the game! I'm honestly learning to get enjoyment from the creative process and what comes out of it.
