Hello!

In a similar vein to the previous dev log, I've not a whole lot exciting to report on this past month. Progress has been steady, save for a few days where I went back and re-rendered some ch3 images to fix an issue that I had since discovered the fix for. It wasn't a major error, but making the change improved the images for that scene, so I felt like it was a necessary deviation. Aside from that, though, as I say, progress has been pretty good.

I'm fairly close now to the end of the biggest scene of the chapter. There's two individual conversations, both with a bit of branching, and one group conversation still to do and I'll be done with it. Thinking about it, I'm hoping to be done with the scene in the next month, and be able to move onto the next parts of the chapter. Once this scene is complete, I may even be able to estimate a potential window for the chapter's release. This would be purely speculative, of course, but, as this chapter isn't ending on a large scene like ch2 did, I should be able to more accurately give an estimate this time around for a release date. (as opposed to in ch2 where I frequently underestimated how long the final party scene would take to render all the mini-scenes for).

As always, thank you for your patience. I'd love to be able to release updates quicker, but I don't want to rush anything either. So I appreciate those who bear with me. I hope it'll be worth it for you.

Previews above as usual

Thanks!
