Plans for November Release

• Brandon What If story in game
• 1 Quinn side story in game
• Monika sprite in game (hopefully but maybe not completed, we'll see!)
• GUI redesign (in beta now!)
• Quinn's route started with a few endings
• 1-2 more betas with Quinn content
• Guardian sprites designed, hopefully Quispe and Lux in game depending on artist schedule
• At least 1 new CG in progress now
• Plan out Quinn's CGs and get those started
• I need to design a couple of side characters for the sprite artists
• Prep more steam achievements if time permits
• Plan out more side content if time permits
• And if I have any free time outside of all that (I won't), I'll work on a redesign a couple of the side pages like the Gallery and Updates screens in game.

Right now I have no idea how long Quinn's route will take to complete, but I expect it will be a minimum of two months from now.

Inserting Monika's sprite into the game will take quite a bit of time, so the conversion may not be complete by next release.

The last couple days I've focused completely on the GUI overhaul, because completing that early gives me a lot of time to naturally test it as I build out Quinn's route. The overhaul is complete and in beta now, so I will be focusing back on writing.

Quinn's route has been started, and one small side story is already complete. It is a scene from the main story from Quinn's point of view. I won't release it early because it doesn't make sense out of context, sry! :) 

At some point in the next month or two, I'll make a Patreon post detailing all the specifics about the criteria/process for members to get a Steam key on release. Release target is still around February (but no promises~)
