[EN] September 2026 Monthly Report (Patreon)

Tl;dr We are releasing early days rework within the week as we prepare for Andy’s return.

Good timezone, everyone, it is Z.

Like previous months, there was no active progress made by Andy due to his absence, but here is the monthly report he prepared prior to his hiatus.

For those who missed the context, Andy moved out to another country for immigration purposes, and he needs a work permit to be able to perform any kind of work, AFCL included. The updates within the Monthly Reports were prepared by him in advance. He emphasized for us to include this every Monthly Report:

There is more to come in the coming months. So, it’ll be like I never left to begin with :D Also I’m still alive. I know Z will say it like I’m gone from this project, but I’m not dead!!”

//Updated to After Class 0.13.41):

While version 0.13.40 is the one shown in the secret folder that Andy left us, we took the liberty to change the game version to 0.13.41 for both internal and release—one (minor) version higher than the planned release this month—to avoid confusion for the team. This version includes the previously mentioned Day 2 Rework and full Mark Day 2 Rework, but now with extra content: Partial Rework for P2, G2, L2 and A2.

The Partial Reworks consist of nearly 200 reworked lines per route and stops just before Walter starts his Tuesday class. These reworks are to prepare for the final update of the Twilight version of After Class in the foreseeable future.

//A2 Partial Rework:

In the previous version, you didn’t really get to interact with Anders until lunchtime, the Partial Rework for A2 changes that and focuses on Anders’ personal struggles in general and how he copes with it. 

//L2 Partial Rework:

L2 Partial Rework has made a few changes to the scenes you might be familiar with. Instead of being presented with a choice, the scene is now mandatory; an extra scene also has been added not to drag out the route, but to flesh out and give more context to Lars’ current living situation.

//G2 Partial Rework:

Most of the scenes for Gil have been reworked and extended, especially the ones that may have caused misunderstandings because some select people form an opinion after reading one single line without trying to understand context. Since Gil is one of the few characters who has (respectful) contact with Walter in his teenage years, the Partial Rework focuses on that aspect to make Gil feel more familiar for the new readers despite having little to no context.

//P2 Partial Rework:

With the P2 Partial Rework, extra interactions have been added, and existing scenarios have been either deleted or/and reworked. This rework attempts to solidify Parker’s supposed personality without erasing his charm from the earlier works by Andy. The new scenarios aim to feel more school-oriented since Parker is one of the faculty in Highwell University.

//Changelog screen update:

While not implemented in the release version yet, Andy has updated the changelog screen in the dev version. Here is how it will look once he has put it on the release versions.

//Gameplay Gimmick:

Some buttons related to gameplay gimmick screens have been included in this build. It does not seem to be functional within the public build, but there is a screenshot of the said screens and it is somewhat working on the internal dev version.

//Soundtrack:

Three new tracks have been added in this version: “New Start”, “Old Thoughts”, and “Paradigm”. These tracks are played in a few scenarios for the time being.

Here are the previews for Track 10 and 11. Track 12 is not included in the folder, so we left it empty:

//WIP/Finished assets:

Since Andy is not allowed to work, there are no new BG, CG and character sprites made.

//Error Report:

Error Fixes:

Minor typo in the opening sequence has been fixed.

//What’s next?

Just like the previous months, without knowing what is inside the encrypted folder, we have no way of knowing until Andy is back to work on After Class. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your support and patience.

That is all from us. Thank you for your attention. Share with your friends, like the post, and give us your thoughts. We will see you next time. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us anything on the Discord server. — tbd // Z
