Weekly Update!

Hey there, Everyone! Weekly update is here once more.

This update is brief but packed with impact, showcasing the strides we’ve made recently.

After more time than we expected, we are finally able to share a bit more about the Shaman path!

Nara & Mjol Build Enhancements
We’ve been hard at work refining the Nara & Mjol test build. Our efforts have centered on improving the test build animations and stabilizing its behaviors.

General Fixes and Optimizations
We’ve turned our attention to Vanlen’s animations, tackling lingering issues from past patches. To ensure long-term stability, we’re overhauling our rig system by isolating each character rig. This creates a cleaner, more efficient animation pipeline, boosting both performance and reliability across the project. The main idea is that future rig updates will no longer cause animation breakage under any normal circumstances.

Launcher Improvements
We’re enhancing the launcher to improve stability and usability. Here’s what’s in progress:

Integrated Updater:
We’re embedding the updater directly into the launcher for a seamless process, with particular benefits for Linux users.

Optimized Downloads:
We’re streamlining how the game downloads and updates, maintaining a single, current build to save space and time. Optional rollbacks to key versions will remain available.

Connectivity Fixes:
We’re resolving “Cannot Connect to Launcher” errors for users with slower or unstable connections, ensuring everyone can access the game effortlessly.

Mac Support:
The latest launcher changes introduce compatibility with Apple Silicon Macs.

Art Showcase
We are excited to reveal the latest artwork for the Shaman character, which will be utilized in the upcoming and revamped Dialogue Screens. We’ve also finished creating Inani’s Nursery with a cozier, more inviting design. Check it out.

Looking Ahead
The journey doesn’t stop here. We’re already diving into the next wave of features and refinements, guided by your feedback and our shared vision.

Your support keeps us energized, and we’re eager to bring you more updates soon. And as always, if you want to join our community, share art and make some friends, feel free to join our discord https://discord.gg/jkUghj5 !
