Petals litter the ground like snow. They take their time as they fall-pretty, innumerable, and each one the same.

Greetings, friend! I hope you’ve been well. Come sit by the fire as I tell you about the next chapter in Kit’s tale...

Chapter three is fully written and coded. All that remains is the artwork! I currently still have ~4 CGs and 3 backgrounds to complete.

Kit gets a new sprite this update (yes, I know--but this is the last time, I swear on my dwindling sanity).

The ETA for chapter 3′s release is at the very end of April or start of May. This will be the last major demo update until the game’s full release.

Along with a new chapter, the existing demo will have the following updates and changes:

The option to ignore the chest will be unavailable in the demo. This route will only be accessible after the player unlocks any other ending in the final game.

Two other character routes will be playable: Franz and Anja. Kit’s relationship with either can be romantic or platonic. To unlock Anja’s path, you must choose to stay on the balcony in chapter two.

Previews of Franz and Anja’s scenes:

Minor UI update: a candle icon will now display on the screen when the player needs to click to progress.

A “phonograph” feature that lets you listen to the game’s music from the main menu is in the works. I can’t 100% guarantee it will be in the demo, but I am working towards it!

Speaking of music...

Chapter three has six new tracks, some of which I adore and hope you look forward to hearing!

That’s all for now! Before you go, let me leave you with one last preview:

Things are probably fine in the cellar, right?

As always, thank you for your interest in the game! It means the world to me. If you'd like smaller doses of random Kit updates, feel free to follow me on the blue bird site or the blue blog site! I will still try to check in every ~2 months to update you all on its progress.
