April Dev Log: New Roadmap, Developing Sooha Route, PC Version, and Season 3 Updates
Hello, Finders! April is in full bloom! We can’t believe half the year is almost gone... This has to be a joke, right?!
Anyway, let’s dive into the April Development Diary!!
🗺️ New Roadmap
Our development schedule has been updated, so We’d like to share the revised roadmap with you! Our goal is to wrap up the Moonlight Dialogue journey within this year. 🙇🏻♀️ Please understand that schedules are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances, but as always, we will do our absolute best to stick to this roadmap!

You might notice that progress hasn’t moved as much since last month... ㅠㅠ That's because we are currently running QA for the PC version simultaneously! We’ll make sure the PC version launches on time according to the roadmap.
📌Season 3: In Progress
Scenario✒️: 40% Complete
Programming🛠️: 5% Complete

Work on Season 3—where you’ll experience the common routes and endings for Yuchae and Seojun—is also underway! We can’t wait to share our characters' stories with all of you Finders. My goal is to focus heavily on the scenario throughout May and complete all voice recordings by June!! We’ll do my best to balance this with my main job so We stay healthy and avoid any delays!
Other Stories
My niece painted a tote bag for Earth Day (April 22nd) at school, and she gave it to me as a gift, saying she thought of Moonlight Dialogue while making it! 💓 She hasn't played the whole game yet, but I guess the loading screen left a big impression on her, haha. It was so cute that I just had to share it with you all.
Lastly, here’s a little sneak peek of a cropped image from Sooha's route!!
All the artwork for Sooha's route is officially finished!! There are so many amazing pieces that I'm dying to show you. 🥹 I’ll keep working hard for the next month as well! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

I've kept semi-quiet for a couple of months, because frankly I just wanted to turn my back on Cheritz and forget about them. But then it was pointed out to me that they started objectifying Elly and I can no longer hold my tongue.
For those who aren't convinced these images are gAI. I ran them through Hive with the result of 100% gAI images. These tools are faulty and should be used with care, but in this case it's obvious just by looking at them and now the checker has confirmed it.
In the second one it couldn't figure out what gAI model was used, but in the second one it's 81% sure it's Stable diffusion. Some people think faultily that Stable Diffusion is safe to use, that is almost always not the case and definitely not here. Hive is one of the more trustworthy AI image checkers.
Cats aren't objects.
And Stable Diffusion is not ethical AI by a long shot. If you want to read up on How Stable Diffusion and other gAI models works, here's a resource:
data, unethical data, pretraining, generative ai generative models, ai, ai revolution, adapt or die, pretraining, finetuning
Also if you are an artist who want to protect your work against gAI models being trained on your work. Please check out the new and improved Glaze 2.0 that dropped a couple of days ago by the Glaze Team from University of Chicago. And if you want damage to injury, check out their other tool Nightshade.
What is Glaze?
Glaze is a protective layer you can put on your art that defends against AI Mimicry. That means that it can't learn from how you draw, but other humans can still see it perfectly and do so as they please. Enjoy this illustration from the original Glaze 1.0 Paper. You can read more about how it works <<HERE>>

Hello, this is Cheritz.
Some of the photos of our newest Ssumone, June, have not been polished enough to the game standard, and we will be u
Hello, dear lab participant.
We’re announcing the updated schedule for <The Ssum>‘s December update.
Harry Day 201 to Ending (71 days) + Ful
Do Not Ever Sent Hate and threats To Developers. Just don't. They are human beings with lives and it's a game they made.
You may not agree with their choices, you are allowed to criticize it, but in the end you have a choice to. You can walk away instead of putting more bad into the world.
I should probably have reposted the above post when Cheritz posted AI art of 707 on X-Twitter. They claimed that they didn't know, but they've got a track record of using AI imagery directly in the Ssum and making up excuses for why they did it. See the image here:
Their own artists might not want to draw backgrounds, but there's plenty of background artists looking for a good job be it freelance or not, also there's other ways to do backgrounds without stooping to using generative AI.
Look to what webtoons are doing with 3D environments painted over etc. There's programs that are consistent and reliable and not made with scraped content from artists, photographers etc.
The reason I didn't bring it up last year is because I've checked out on them after being deeply disillusioned by everything they were doing at that point and thought I had stopped caring.
I still don't really care. It's a company, I liked their game and I still like some of that game and their previous games, but if I don't like the new stuff they make I'm letting go for my own mental health and finding companies and projects that I'd like to support instead of supporting ones that clearly won't make something I'd enjoy anymore.
"The brand still exists, the people are different."
The brand name Cheritz might still exist, but most of the people involved with creating the OG Mystic Messenger are long gone from it's premises except for a select few. Alone through the timeline of making OG MM to the last DLC that dropped the revolving doors of staff was constant.
Brand loyalty must have a limit. A lot of good game companies that once made amazing games have been bought up or gone under through time. Staying at yelling at them is not going to make them change their behavior if they consistently try to push AI, then that's what they are about now. And yelling at or being nasty to them won't help.
You have a choice too.

[Sooha’s Route]
One of Sooha's route backgrounds.
The scenario for Sooha’s route is about 80% complete. (Actually, I thought it was 100%, but as I play through the game myself, I keep seeing so many things to improve... Why does it feel like there's always more to polish? We plan to fix that remaining 20% while working on the build!)
Work on backgrounds, CGs, standing sprites, and illustrations is also underway! Also, please note that there will be a change in the release order of the character routes. We'll post a separate official announcement, but I wanted to give you a heads-up here in the dev log! :)

Closing Thoughts...
It would be a shame to leave just like this... so here is a sneak peek of Jiwon in surgical scrubs!
Jiwon’s route features incredible performances from our voice actors and the very essence of our team's hard work. As the build update gets closer, we’ll return with a more detailed official announcement!

– Relax Room Movement Added / Intro Video on New Game Start / Screen Reader Improvements
Hello, dear Finder!
We hope you’re staying warm and well through this chilly winter ❄️
We’re excited to share some updates we’ve prepared to make Moonlight Counseling Center more comfortable and enjoyable for you!
1. Bringing the Relax Room to Life! (Participant Movement Added)
Once you collect all the interior items, the corresponding participant will visit the Relax Room.
They’ll no longer just stand still — instead, they’ll move around and welcome you in a much more lively way!
We’re also working hard to bring you participants’ voices within the Relax Room in the future, so please stay tuned a little longer 💫
2. Start Your Story with a Video! (Intro Video Added for New Games)
When you start a new game, a PV video will now play, allowing you to fully feel the atmosphere of Moonlight Counseling Center from the very beginning.
How about diving into the world we’ve prepared, right from your first encounter?
We’ll continue striving to deliver an even deeper sense of immersion ✨
3. Screen Reader (AOS) Guidance Improved
The screen reader is an important accessibility feature designed so that visually impaired players can also enjoy our game.
However, enabling this feature significantly changes the control method, and we sincerely apologize for not explaining this clearly beforehand, which may have caused confusion or inconvenience 😢
With this update, an 안내 message will now appear when the screen reader is activated, explaining the changes in controls in advance.
We’ll continue to be more thoughtful and considerate in making Moonlight Counseling Center accessible to everyone.
