Hello everyone,

The last weeks have been pretty uneventful, Since I stopped my day job to fully work on the game I also decided to focus on my own health more. Figuring out a routine for my days to be productive and healthy is a bit of a balancing act, but I will get there.Because of all the great feedback I get from you guys I know what parts of the game need attention. While this isn't planned for this coming update, I realize that the repeating university scenes every day are probably the worst part of the game right now. I will be doing a few things in 0.08(this is not the next update but the one after.) to make this better.- Your classmates, Hari, Caroline and Vicky will be the main focus of this update- During Daisy's classes she will be assigning group projects, these group projects will be done with one of these characters(you can choose who).- When a group project is ongoing, you will have the option to "study" together with you group project partner.- These group projects will be done in a private classroom for "maximum focus"- The group projects will be the way to progress the characters, in both story and weight.- There will also be many new teachable subject for Daisy to tell during her classes.I believe having 3 new characters during school times with each their own scenes, stories and weight gain progressions will improve the replayability for the university parts of the game.Then I want to talk about the discord server I opened yesterday. Hopefully the sudden drop into the discord server wasn't too annoying, When I added the Patreon bot it just threw everyone who has discord linked to their Patreon in there without warning. The discord server can be used as a place to talk about the game, ask me questions, give suggestions, talk about other games, other weight gain stuff. It really is just a community server for people who share a similar interest in weight gain games. If you haven't been thrown in there, here is the link: https://discord.gg/QDPbbfx3cEI'm not sure if I had talked about this yet, but for next update I will add a feature in the stats page so you can cycle between weight gain stages for the characters, then you can compare their gains. I have reworked some RNG elements to be more forgiving, if you haven't had Bonnie visit in Bunny Bites for a few days she gets a higher chance to visit the next time for example. This is all programming work without new art needed, so it doesn't take that long to implement.I have started working together with Normythemage to make all the pages for Fattening Career a bit more appealing. There will also be a trailer and some other cool promotional material. I posted a few animations used in this on my Discord for you to check out.I haven't gotten to a point where I can tell you when the next update is coming yet, there is still a lot of renders to make for all the different events I'm working on. But hopefully I can give a release date in the next devblog.Thanks for all the support and have a good day!
