General Progress Report

Okay, lots of stuff to go through this week, I've been VERY busy lol!

- Akello's chapter is now out to everyone but Pitrats level patrons, who will be getting him on the 28th!  I hope you enjoy it and tell me what you thought!

- There have been a lot of updates to Akello's chapter so far for bug fixes, typos, and general editing.

- Tri City Monsters has a composer!  I can't talk a whole lot about details right now but the game will be getting a main theme and Mori, Amir, and Akello will be getting special arrangements of that theme made just for them.  The composer has worked on several larger scale video game projects before and I'm super excited to have their expertise!

- We're also bringing in a pro UX/Menu Asset artist to help me polish up the look and feel of the game!  More details on that to come.

- Right now, I'm focusing outlining the prologue and full plots for each character so that I can plan out development post kickstarter and into 2024.  I have so many scenes I can't wait to write and questions about the world I want to answer.

- Atlas is back in the well of toil work on dakimakuras/body pillows!!  I've seen some the Mori art and God Damn.  Stay tuned for previews.

- Regarding body pillows, after totaling votes both here and on discord (remember that patron votes count for more) we'll be doing one side human, one side monster, and keep them just a little sexy so they're not too mortifying for your parents/roommates/significant others to see lol.  Think tasteful pin up.

- I'm bringing on a special guest artist to help me make TIDDY MOUSEPADS!  I'm extremely excited about this as this has been something I've wanted to make for ages.  Mori, Amir, and Akello will each get their shot to put the goods on display for the comfort of your wrist!  More details (and previews) coming soon!

- Other than that my plans for March include more work on Prologue outlining, working with my outsourced experts on Music, Art, UI, and Merch.  On top of that its time for me to do preliminary research on the upcoming Kickstarter campaign and work out structure/shipping and all that fun logistical stuff.

- This will be the second kickstarter I've run so I'm looking forward to catching up with all the changes since my last one (it was a ttrpg in 2018) and putting together a fun campaign with lots of cool rewards for backers to help get this base game made.

As always, thanks for your support!  Tri City Monsters has seen some amazing evolution since Mori's test chapter released and I'm beyond hyped to keep pushing forward.
