This month has brought about MUCHO COMPLETELY NEW ART 🎨 as well as ✨ SHINY, SPARKLING POLISH. ✨

• Numerous Small Things @_@ – This post details a lot of backend work that was tidied up to make the game run more efficiently and correctly~
• New font, super slick hover text, and other cool things – The contents of this post are pretty much summarized in the title.. 😁 The hover text is something I’m really proud of, especially its nice drop shadow!
• 🎀 !DOWNLOAD! The Welcome Video Early Demo 🎀- YES!!!  The first download for something actually playable was made available early in this month!! 🌟 All of the functions I’ve been pouring into this tiny, welcoming world were specifically so this could be made available~  Check it out if you have a minute!
• Yes/No Prompts, Cute Font Details, and More! – Cute little icons were added to the text in this update, such as little hearts, stars, or music notes at the end of dialog. 🎵 But more functionally, a pop-up box where the player can select “yes” or “no” (or “save” and “load,” etc.) is now operable~
• Hey Guys Check Out My Old, Embarrassing Games – This post, which is freely available for everyone to read (even non-Patrons), lists a handful of the previous game projects I have made and worked on!  Wanna see some extremely low-resolution art of mine from 10 years ago?  This is where you can check it out. 😳
• smol and ANGER – This post is the source of the preview image at the top of this summary page. 😆 Some of these characters need multiple expressions to show, and that what was worked on in this update.
• Super Hardcore Art Mode ENGAGED – Some serious painting progress was made in this post~ 🖌️ Finally, those objects that were just sitting on the map, uncolored, are all prettily painted, and with new examinable text over them!
• Map Painting Finished + Glowies! – A wrap-up post for those art elements from the previous post, plus an important, ambient piece of polish – MAGICAL GLOWIES.  The animated gif that shows them off in this post is mesmerizing. ☄️🌌☄️
• Painting a HOUSE!! – There is, in fact, a SECOND MAP to explore in this Welcome demo, and the art for its interior is first shown off here~
• House Interior P Much Finished – A follow-up related to the previous post, this one shows the new, finished map implemented in-game, with the player walking around and exploring the new space~ 🏡 Won’t you stop by and stay for tea in this sweet little house?

👍 Lots of REALLY GOOD STUFF was accomplished this month!!  I am feeling really happy and confident about how my sweet little project is growing. 🤗 Thanks so much for reading and following along with my experience, and if you’d like to help in any form, consider the links below to either become a patron or just to donate once through Paypal any small amount~ 💝
