I wanted it to be Halloween, but we can’t all be winners.
Hello everyone! As it turns out, backgrounds can be quite demanding, and a fair amount of the backgrounds have a bunch of little details you need to pay attention to. I was unable to complete all the backgrounds by today. If I had, I would have been comfortable giving Three Lilies a Halloween release date. It’s very unfortunate, but I hope everyone doesn’t mind a November scare! (And we’re going to advertise the shit out of Three Lilies for subsequent Halloweens!)
At this time, I am at the coloring stage of the first Suburb background. I will complete this one and the other Suburb background first, then go to more demanding City backgrounds first and then gradually move into less demanding ones. If I can squeeze in a progress stream with all this new time, I certainly will! You can see WIPs of the backgrounds posted every so often in the official Discord development channel:

I anticipate all backgrounds to be done this week if I continue the trend of one and a half per day! After that, it’s all staging using the edited script, which is currently in progress thanks to my wonderful editors Cherimoya and Faust. A release date provided when headway has been made on implementation. Please look forward to the release of Three Lilies and Their Ghost Stories!
