Today I'm travelling. I'll be on a trip for the next two weeks-ish. I'm calling it a semi-vacation because I won't be doing any script writing or drafting until I come back. However, there will still be posts on Patreon, I'll be answering messages, working with the team to ma...

Qiu's turn for a voice sample! They're so precious at this age 💞. The VA did a great job with such a lively character.

And that's the last sample from our first round of casting! Thanks again to the game's VAs. We won't have more voice actors come on board until Step...

There he is. You don't see Baxter much in Step 2. He's already on the gradual journey that leads to him ending up in Sunset Bird.

Qiu's turn! These are the four different hairstyles they can have with the gym outfit. Whether they're hair is long or short is determined at the very start of Step 2. Whether the style is messy or neat depends on which Moment you're doing in Step 2. But they're gonna be looking cool either way.<...

2025-09-11 18:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody! We're getting to vote on another new emote for the GB Patch Patreon discord server. This time, I'm thinking we'll add an emote of a character laying on the ground and crying in a humorous yet pitiful way. It could be tears of defeat or of amazement, depending on how you see it.

Tamarack's gym class look is now also ready to go with her alternate pose 😄. Each hairstyle is adorable! It'd be hard to pick a favorite.

These each represent a Moment from Step 2. One is fully written, one is almost fully written, and one is fully drafted but not yet with a proper script. However, it brings us up to eight whole Moments that are at a point to have a Moment Icon made!

Agreed, Qiu!
Another beta has arrived. I do want to say right away that playtime-wise this is shorter than we usually do. Things have been developing, though. There's fundamental fixes and QoL improvements in this build. We're also at point where things are stable enough for us to hire a ne...

Well, you can't see it in a static screenshot, but now if you're texting two people at once there's a dissolve transition between the chats to make it a smoother change. And the phone will also slide up onto the screen instead of appearing at the center right away.

Class time! Everybody get to their seat. I thought it'd be fun if the school had a bunch of random looking chairs instead of a uniform set. It adds some color to the otherwise plain room, too.

Borrowing the jacket 😳.
It's a rainy day and Qiu has no umbrella cover, so their sprite has a dampness effect. I was gonna show those assets on their own as an art preview, but screenshots are also a fun way to see new visuals. Here's a wet and dry comparison-
