September News Summary
Intro
A little late with the monthly news report, sorry for that, just very busy IRL so when monthly shift is in the middle of the week its a little harder for me to actually finish the report.
Artwork / Animations
- Susan had a cut-in scene made which was finished start of the month - This will be the last for her scene(I promise).
- Besides that the plan was to actually move on to doing back bust's for all our characters, but after a short discussion with the team, we shifted focus to backgrounds instead ~ So right now Yamkha is hard at work on the Library for the school! A few teasers have been put up for the high tier already.
- Page 09 of the "extra content" aka secret comic collectable, have been done, and im expecting the last ones to be done October. It will come to a total of 13-15 pages including a front page.
Development / Coding
- Right now we are in a very good state with version 0.1, Mike have been very busy and have actually finished version 0.1, which is why I will add another section below, "game testing" where I will mention things we are working on and improving inside Ren'Py(without spoilers ofc.). When I say we are finished, we are actually still missing a lot of the artwork, specifically for scenes and backgrounds, so yes sorry to disappoint, still a fair way to go before releasing 0.1 - I will actually suggest to go watch the news Mike put on his own patreon(for free tiers) to watch some of the ingame captures he did!

Game Testing
The game is fully playable, from start to finish, and the focus right now are on:
- Enhancing dialogues, sound effects/music, and also improving scenes for 0.1
- We will keep making adjustment until we feel its as close to perfect as it can be!
Music & Sounds
- We had a little break on the music, but have resumed from October the 1st. Right now we are trying to create some angry music vibes for either Filch/Snape or even some of the girls!
- Music in general is also in a really great spot inside the game, many of the composed music tracks are implemented and we have also taking a direction to compliment the game with free music-tracks which are available around the web. For example are we using some music from the composer called Kevin MacLeod, he is a very famous composer who do a ton of free music/sound tracks.

General / Story
- Since the restructure, story for 0.1 is done, and work is already in full swing for 0.2 and forward.
- The restructure have also introduced a lot of new potential scenes which is fantastic.
Planned for October
- Library, Yamkha is in full switch doing the Library, but after playing our game he actually wanted to redo the library to match the version Mike had found online. So, the library might take up a bit more time then any usual background.
- After that its either another background, or doing a new bust, I will not spoil it before we know which way we will go, so stay tuned for that.
- More music, another sound track after the current one being created!
- Need to look into voice actor for lewd sounds(not voiced dialogues) soon. Lets see if this will be the month!
- Finishing the lewd comic with the extra artist! And implement it into the game as extra content.
- Continuing tuning and perfecting 0.1 ~ working on the continued plot for 0.2
That's all!
Zellemate out!
