Weekly Update (8-4-2025) (Patreon)

Edit: Forgot to mention this morning, but the Crownloyalist Wiki page is mostly updated now.

Release has gone pretty well, I think. Despite the crazy size, we've had fewer bugs than usual I think. My thanks to those who reported, and for everyone who's played and shared their thoughts. ^^

So, as I noted in the release notes, I'll be taking an extra week to take this one public. There are a couple reasons for this. One is marketing-related, but the bigger one is that I want to both take a slightly longer break and do a decent amount of polish before public release, so the extra week makes that feasible. My rough plans for public include more polish on the early game and fleshing out the new route (Midnight) in terms of making sure I feel it has distinct content from Full Moon everywhere I think it should. This will likely require a replay too, and... as we all know, those are long. XD

While I'm at it, I wanted to share the new achievement art for the routes. In order, Midnight, New Moon, Full Moon, Twilight, and Daybreak:

In other, Despoina-related news, Mimo sent me her dress in full! So, at some point this week, I'll be going through and adding that back in Chapter 12. Here's a preview of the facesets for that:

This particular one amused me since it feels like there must be an AU out there somewhere where she stars in a villainess anime. >.>; <.<;

Whether that one ever gets used in game is an open question, but it's still fun to have it. XD

Anyway, for now, going to try to relax some! This really was a behemoth of an update, and the decompression from it is hitting hard. XD Feel free to send reports as they arise, though.
