Makes me wonder what’s the purpose of attending 4 years of college if it’s going to be the same when job hunting?

Some even wait years before getting a job after graduation.

Do you mean i have this diploma for fucking show only? Like “yey you graduated. But that is still not enough to hire you despite the skills and grades you obtained through 4 years. Unfortunately you still need to have 5 years working experience before we hire you.”

And when you haven’t finished 4 years they’d be like “no education? No diploma? No employment. You have to gain 4 years of college before we hire you.”

A bit of context: this comic takes place quite a long time ago. They were younger and still figuring out how to make things work in the circus. The first version of their outfits wasn’t comfortable, since their bodies are different, which led to the redesign and custom-made clothes for all of them after this incident.

Besides the outfit changes, you’ll also get a small spoiler about Pierrot’s rule! Also! Thank you @destinysquared for helping me correct some poses and adjust a few things in the comic!

Lore! As I mentioned, I’ve been working on this comic during my lunch breaks for a few days now! There are lots of lore snippets I jot down for worldbuilding, and usually, I don’t share them but I thought you might like to see a bit more while I work on the game.

There are still more snippets that I’m not sure if I’ll turn into comics (because it’s a lot of work), whether to just leave the written bits, or maybe make a simpler comic to illustrate them. These include:

The outfit change Pierrot mentions

What goes through Pierrot’s mind the first time he meets MC

Some details about the Ticket Taker’s appearance

Explanation about Pierrot’s symbol

Explanation about the colors of the Fifth and Pierrot

I decided to make a post with some of the questions I get the most. Some have already been answered, but in this post it’ll be easier to find, right?

About their height: I have a small chart I use when making the sprites. They’re in the same order as the bad ending:

You also ask A LOT about the size of… their body parts haha As you know, they’re not human, so yes, those parts are bigger too, and each one has a different design. I PLAN to draw this, but only after the update is released. After all, I haven’t revealed Jester and Doctor’s designs yet, so I’ll rank them from largest to smallest, okay? 🍆 Size Rank: Doctor Pierrot Jester Harlequin Ticket Taker

👅 Size Rank: Pierrot Jester Harlequin Ticket Taker Doctor

Physical Strength Rank: (I know I haven’t introduced their abilities yet, but this ranking is just for raw strength)

Pierrot Harlequin/Jester (Whoever has the advantage wins) Doctor Ticket Taker

(If you remember Harlequin’s story, this info is just a slight “what if” context Just teasing you with this~ don’t think too hard about it)

About the game:

When will the update be released? I really wanted to release it this month (since it’s my month /o/), but I can’t give a date yet. There’s about 20% left to finish coding (around 25 dialogue pages remaining).

Once I finish coding with the sprites, I’ll move on to music and sound effects. That’s when I’ll be able to estimate a date, and I’ll let you know when I get there.

About translations: The update will include: English, Portuguese, and Chinese.

Someone volunteered to translate into Russian, and another person into Spanish. I haven’t been able to properly talk with them about these translations yet (since I haven’t coded all the dialogue), so keep in mind those languages are a possibility, but please be patient.

How many days will the game have? Haha! That’s a tricky question. See, the second day of the update is huge, and it just goes deeper into the story while introducing the rest of the cast. So there will definitely be a “day 3,” though I’m not sure how far beyond that it will go.

Will the whole cast have a romance route? I have a lot of endings planned, and making the other characters romance options is a possibility. I really like the idea, but I can’t promise anything. Do I want to do it? Yes! Will it be possible? I’ll have to test it in the script after finishing day 2, so I just need a bit more time before I can be certain.
