made some more progress on the second session!! i might add more to the bg since it's still a little barren, but i figured finishing the art is what it'd take to get me to write the rest of this thing. i've been so preoccupied with other stuff that i couldn't bring myself to look at the script, but i feel like i can now... i really wanna finish ...

so what new code did it take to do this? i'm...

i've got a truckload of art for you guys this month!!! i guess this is what i end up doing when i'm not actively working on a game haha.
