Unsurprisingly I've greatly overestimated my speed in which I'd be able to finish the updates^^"

So, instead I just wanted to give a little progress update to make sure it doesn't look like this is a dead project or anything like that! I'm always working on the game in some sort of capacity after all!

I've shifted my focus on the new character route instead of the initially planned UI update and I've made some decent progress I'd say:

What's finished:

• The sprite work for the new boy is done 
• All of his clothes are done
• The new background illustration is (almost) done
• And I made a little blinking  animation for the other characters

What I'm currently working on:

• Writing: I've already mapped out the events of the new route and started writing, so now I'm working on finishing that
• Programming: I ran into some pretty big issues, regarding the coding and at this point I think my Ren'py might be bugged because I'm literally doing what I did for the other route but nothing (mainly screens and sprites) seems to be working the way it should be .-. But I'll fix it somehow, I'm sure^^
• Main Menu: I've started redesigning the main menu  (the next big update will probably just include a prototype, though)

What I haven't started yet:

• The illustration for the sex scene
• Bonus illustration for the new boy
• Blinking animations for the  new boy
• A new facial expression for the MC

The blinking animation and the facial expression won't take a lot of time but I'm the slowest illustrator in the world, so the two illustrations will probably take me a while^^''

So, that's the current state of the project, I hope you're still looking forward to the new route! :D
