[Progress Report]: 29th of March

Hey everyone,
Up above you can see Harper in her new design! I invested a bit during the last big asset sale to purchase some new outfits for the characters that better fit their personality. It would probably take me two months to redo all of the renders with Harper to completely replace her old stuff, so just expect to see her more often in this attire going forward. Let me know what you think about it as well!
For progress this week, I've finished redesigning Harper's bedroom and making both hers as well as Valentina's accessible. I'm still doing a lot of overtime at the hospital, so this took most of my development time this week, but I do have some good news!
I was finally able to update Harper's original bedroom animation to be, well, animated. Just progress in the story far enough to get access to her bedroom (it will be obvious, a message will alert you), and the new animated scene should take over when you select it from the menu. I say "new" but really it was the old event just finally realized. With the new hardware, I can make things like this possible! That should bring the total animated, repeatable events added to the next update to about "3.5"
On these little, mini-events: I am planning on adding a lot more. I wanted them to be the focus this update cycle because I had none of the coding foundation for them in place. Now that it has been implemented, adding one or two every major update shouldn't take nearly as long. I expect a similar update further down the line once I change the time table. Currently, "Evenings" are mostly filler for you to train in the library or gym. Eventually, Evenings will work more like afternoons and the "Night" segment will take that slot. This requires brand new renders of every room in the Academy, so I will be tackling it when it comes time for you to bring the villainesses home.
What did he say?
The goal for the upcoming week is to finally go back to the story, which means cranking out more of the stuff that I like to do! I am going to try and fit in at least two. We'll see how it goes. Thank you for all of your support.
