Update Blog -Urgent Poll

Added 2023-05-05 14:57:53 +0000 UTC

Dear Patrons,

Today's update blog is about an unexpected matter that I didn't see coming 😱 There is bad and good news.

--BAD NEWS 👀--

Remember the post I wrote 2 weeks ago related to me compressing the game by sacrificing 15% of the image quality? Turns out, it was a bad idea HAHAH...

I tried testing the game as usual today and I found out that the sacrifice was more than 15%, it's around 75% of the image quality. The game doesn't meet its visual standards, my standards, nor yours.

To give you perspective: Image A, B and C are in order from the lowest to highest resolution/PNG compression:

If you cannot see it clearly, here's a close up:

In conclusion:

Image A has the worst resolution (you can actually see from her blushing face, there's a yellowish circle due to bad resolution/compression)
Image B is slightly better, but overall not recommended, especially for you who plays it with full screen mode (I know I do), the damage will be more visible

--GOOD NEWS 🌺--

Fixed res C is the solid, final, and concrete solution. The size will not be as small as image A and B, but the image quality is sharp (even sharper than the ones we have been having all these months). Fixed res C also allows the original image's size to be reduced by 15%. But there's a catch:

In order to achieve fixed res C, I have to go through the game's 925 images and apply the compression one-by-one
I will need 7-14 days to finish the process
The game will be delayed until it's done

Therefore, I'd like to ask your opinion. Because using the newest version (which is only 400MB) is currently a fail, my question:
