------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current Build: Chapter 1 Update 4

• CG Gallery

All CGs are viewable upon completion of the chapter, these can be seen in the Captain's Log.

• New Versioning naming method for future builds

We have decided to change our Version number naming scheme to something easier to follow. Future versions will include the number of Chapters in the current build and what Update the build is currently on.

Chapters will reflect the story progress and Updates will reflect things such as bug fixes and new features.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next Build: Chapter 1.1 Update 1

• Koby Dialogue

You will be able to have a few question-and-answer dialogues with Koby on your way to Shellstown.

• Repeatable Dream Scene

You will be able to go to sleep on the fishing boat you're currently on with Koby, allowing you to dream about Boa Hancock again.

• New Boa Dream H-Scene

There will be a new H-Scene with Boa that will be repeatable alongside the previously created H-Scenes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Future Build: Chapter 2 Update 1

• New Story Arc

A brand new storyline that takes place in Shellstown; new characters will be introduced with new CGs.

• New Character H-Scene

After completing the chapter, you will be able to go back to your ship and have dialogue with your new crewmate and of course have some "bonding" moments with her.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Future Build: Chapter 2 Update 2

• New Gameplay Mechanic

We will be shooting to try and incorporate Action-Platformer mechanics for whenever there is combat. We will be testing out various things before we solidify any new gameplay mechanic decisions. These mechanics are not meant to take anything away from the experience but to enhance it, and we do plan to make these skippable (by dying multiple times) if the platforming sections are too hard.

• Additional H-Scenes

New scene with the new crew mate and an additional dream scene with Boa.

What's being worked on currently

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ART: Boa Dream Thighjob H-Scene Rough Draft.

Writing: Reworked the Dream Sequence to make sense and have some sort of narrative flow and have begun work on writing the new Thighjob scene.

Code: Will start building the scene structure layout with placeholder art within the next few weeks; prior IRL obligations are currently in the foreground.

Audio: Once the writing portion is complete for the next build, we will be reaching out to the same voice actress to voice the new H-Scene Dream sequence.
