Early Access Release 0.1401 - Sayori Consent Route! (Patreon)
Content
What up, cheesecakes?
With an extra week between releases I decided to take on a full route for this update, and have written a complete path for Sayori! Not only that, I also splurged on upgrading her sprite, making her probably the most expressive sprite in the game now!
I am, as ever, interested in what people think about this route. Having Nozomi's friends star in their own focused stories wasn't in my original thinking when I started writing Penlight, but I've been interested to do this for a while once I'd gotten a couple ideas together.
I wasn't able to get as much done as I wanted, but the route is playable from start to finish and, breaking with tradition, I've left an unfinished alternate path open for you to look at it you want (it's clearly signposted that it's unfinished so there's no unexpected dead ends). Any feedback on any of this new writing would be extremely welcome~
Aside from the Sayori stuff, I have also added some CG art for Nozomi's consent route. A lot of her scenes in Kyou's house are rendered as CGs now if you go back and look.
Anyway, that's all for now! Hope you all enjoy this release ^^ For the second update of the month, expect Hiroko to get some long overdue attention, at least on the art front. See you then!
PS. While I am attempting to keep compatibility with the old sprites, there may be some oddities/crashes involved when using the old Sayori sprite that I may not have caught. If you're still using the old sprites, let me know if you find anything.
