The two artists were put on "Make the vital spoiler assets for WoXII" before I realized that I needed to have visual content so ya'll know that we're working on the game. Y'know, promotional images, teasers! Screenshots that aren't tremendous lore and gameplay spoilers!
Here's a tease. Stay tuned~

Never in my life have I made a video that didn't involve throwing a drawer full of silverware down the stairs to promote my work. That ends today.

As a money-hoarding dev where every penny counts to creating a stellar project, I refuse to allow animators to offer free animated test samples. And I would be wary of devs that don't discourage you from spec work.

This aged like a golden goose.
I saw the Bluesky post saying there's no oppression system on links and tags and I spiritually collapsed in relief. I have a Kickstarter coming up that is ABSOLUTELY at risk of being absolutely ignored because of how other sites do things. I might just hard focus on Bluesky for Women of Xal hype!

Well, well! Congratulations @studioreignbow.bsky.social on a successful "In My Orbit" Kickstarter campaign. Looks like both teams will be able to make our visual novels. Looking forward to seeing the end products.

Recall in WoXI when you had to figure out how to unlock The True Ending and I let more than half of you suffer with only The Warning Ending as your takeaway? Well Women of Xal II will have easier choices that don't require you to have keen understanding of your choices and timelines! ^ -^ ^ -^ ^ -^

So many were interested in voicing for Women of Xal II! Which is awesome and reassuring to behold.
That said, our already finished Kickstarter would need to go viral and raise the additional $25k via late pledges to reach that stretch goal. So I guess weather excitement or find your rich aunt. Lol

Not that I'm salty about how the visual novel space has treated our team and the "Women of Xal" series or anything, BUT....
We are most certainly going to leave the space behind with Simone Biles being an inspiration on how to make an exit.

The fact that it's only Tuesday makes today particularly insidious.
Here, have a sketch of our newcomer "Vexalia (Vex) Church". She's going to be stealing all of her scenes in "Women of Xal II", but to tell you why would be tremendous spoilers~
Jamaican voice actress if we get funded for voices.

Just so you know:
No, backers of the $5k are NOT paying for shipping on their poster with their OC with the cast/character(s) of choice. That would be insufferable and absurd of me. It was covered with, you know, the $5k. lol
And no, I'm not marketing for the voice acting stretch goal. I'm tired!

I'm going to send the artist of Women of Xal II (Ssam_Reptile) all the positive comments left here and in reblogs. Because without him working for months on end and gambling on the Kickstarter, we literally would not have been able to make it or even the demo.
