Plans, etc.

I have pretty clear development goals now so I though it was time to make a post like this.
About future builds
First of all, the next patreon build "day 1" will be coming later this month.
The town is finally in an usable state and most of the events are ready. It's still pretty shallow though so I'm in process of adding new mechanics and side stuff.
Also, I have to revamp the save system. The current one works but I'm afraid I will have to add more stuff to it eventually and I don't want people's saves to break with every new build. I have to make it more modular and adaptable.
After that you can expect demo 2 fully in a couple months hopefully. I have to update the lake map and build most of the forest map but nature is waaay easier to make than a town so it shouldn't take too long.
Beyond demo 2 I'll keep releasing lewd scenes with new girls and old favorites like it has been so far but don't expect demo 3 for a long time. I intend to release it close to to the game's launch.
About the girls
After demo 2 I will reveal 3 new girls. I have put a lot of thought on them so hopefully they will add a lot of variety to the cast and appeal to a lot of people.
The game will have 20 girls total. This number could change but it's most likely it.
There's currently 10 girls in the game:
-Ara (Nekomata)
-Faranne (Dark Elf)
-Ophelia (Robot)
-Renge (Kitsune)
-Sayuri (Kitsune)
-Suzu (Hornet)
-Eydís (Norse Dragon)
-Mako (Mershark)
-Eris (Demon Slime)
-Adeline (Arachne)
The remaining will be:
-Fuyuko (Yuki onna)
-Unnamed (Elf)
-Mystery girl
-3 Secret girls to be revealed after demo 2
-MILF (voting)
-Small girl (voting)
-Big girl (voting)
-Wild card (voting)
About release
The original plan hasn't changed. I'll try to finish the work by the end of 2017.
Don't expect it immediately then though. There's still stuff to do after, like adding voice acting, polishing and debugging.
Other stuff
10k in pledges, thanks guys! <3
If this sustain for a year+ there should be a lot left after paying to VAs so I want to do something cool for you.
I was thinking a few options. Japanese VA (in addition to English) is out of the question because it's hella expensive. I would need like half a million for 20 characters...
Another option would be ordering some batches of figurines to a Chinese factory to raffle among patrons like someone suggested before. It's surprisingly cheap though I don't know about the quality.
Other ideas welcome!
That's all for now.
