Hi, friends!

Quick chat time!

Remember how skirts were the bane of my existence last update? Now, my current battle is with narration and dialogues! I keep going over them in my head. I keep asking myself, is the narration and dialogue in each scene just right, or maybe a bit too short? My usual process is to wrap up a scene once it's served its purpose storyline-wise and just move to the next. But lately, I've been digging into stuff and wondering if they could be explored with more talking or descriptive bits. BUT then I think about playing Japanese VNs where it's just... endless text. I hated that, and most of the time I just pressed the skip button! So, I'm really trying to nail the perfect balance for each scene to make the story flow best. So, over to you! Thinking about when you played, how did it strike you? Did it feel like a good pace, or did you feel like scenes dragged or maybe zipped by too quickly? Any thoughts you have would be amazing! Thanks a bunch!

Uhm, just one more thing, if you happen to google "Tainted Harmony," you might spot a particular page among the results.

I wanted to clarify that it isn't me. It looks like someone had posted my game there without my knowledge and permission. I've actually gone ahead and created my own proper page on that platform and reported that person's page already. The thing is, it's been about three weeks since I reported it, and the page hasn't been taken down yet. So, if you happen to have an account on that site and wouldn't mind lending a hand, would you be kind and help me report that page too? Getting it removed would be awesome! If you're able to do that, it would mean a lot and be a huge help to me!

Well, that covers everything for today. I'm planning to post another sneak peek in the next few days, so keep an eye out for that!

Talk to you all later! Bye for now ~
