I just realized something looking at one of the screenshots...

...you can invite a CAT to do things with you? Is it wrong that this thrills me? ("Hey cat, let's go read books together!")

The Ship activities sound find to me you could change "cleaner" to "Swob the deck" or something like that though. "Waitress" could be "Kitchen Girl" but the others sound shippy to me apart from read book but she has to have some time out.

I'll post a full list of jobs and what they increase so you can give me suggestions on better wording :) and yes you can invite anyone including the cat - in the game, you can talk to him :lol: but of course each character gives bonus on only some activities. It's not a very realistic game as you might have guessed :wink:

Ok I'm going to change both cleaner and waitress since indeed don't fit much the "ship theme". The others are actually all done in the colonies/on land, so they are fine (woodcutter, missionary, etc).

I'm sure there will be space for lots of suggestions/bug reports during the upcoming beta testing :lol:

I look forward to the beta as well. Any typos/grammar being pointed out will be appreciated. ^^

And I'm nearing the end of Ebele's route. I still have a few other scenes to add in, etc, but it'll feel great once the romantic routes are completed.

So all the romances are done. Of course, now the original background artist disappeared :lol: luckily I have a replacement ready, but this means another extra delay on the release. Explains why I'm making the art for Loren 2 already now, to avoid those delays for missing artwork near the end of a project! :oops:
I still believe the game will be out in December, but honestly don't think early December anymore...

You should be, after reading it I can confirm it's quite cool 8) Since I'm waiting for art, I'm going forward with the yuri version meanwhile to reduce waiting times for that release :)
