Greetings everyone!
Wow, January really went by in a flash! I hope everyone had a good first month of the new year, keeping up with new years resolutions and what not! (╭ರ_•́)
Unfortunately, half of our Main dev team (which is 2/4 of us) were suddenly struck with two different ailments that left us immobilized for the good half of the month…… So that was eventful! It was pretty ironic seeing a bunch of tiktoks of other people also talking about the mysterious January throat virus….. So if you were an unfortunate victim to said illness, do leave a comment, this is for science!
Okay enough rambling, let’s talk about what you’re really here for, the game!

Unfortunately Development has slowed down just a tiny bit due to the sudden illnesses and departure of one of our previous member outside the main development team that we outsource. (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ ) But fear not! We have made significant progress in these areas!
Art:
New CGs have been added into the game! If you follow our tiktok, one of the CGs was unfortunately posted without our knowledge and that led to a bit of a major spoiler (if you’ve seen it…. you haven’t! >:) ) But it was still pretty fun seeing everyone in our discord discuss about the lore and what the CG meant! (No comment ╮ (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.) ╭)
New sprites have been added! We’ve posted a few sneak peeks in our Kickstarter updates and without spoiling anything, one of our male leads have gotten a bit of a makeover….. who might that be? :0 Unfortunately, I am unable to post any screenshots in order to be fair to our dear Kickstarter supporters, so….I’ll leave it up to your imaginations!
Writing:
- Oh boy oh boy, we’ve finally solidified the endings and we reeeeeally hope you guys will enjoy what’s coming. (Totally not ominous at all…..) Plus we added a few Easter eggs, hopefully you’ll be able to find all of them!
Game development (Technical):
Other than throwing all our assets inside and trying to get everything to run, we’ve also been fine tuning alot of the minigames and of course…. bugs………. My favourite quote from our developer is : “Why is it doing that?!” Does he know? Does Renpy know? Do we know? Who knows?! We’d also like to thank the very helpful members in our discord server who help our development tremendously by reporting bugs we didn’t even know existed! :00
Oh and we’re refining some of the earlier days, so in the full game some of the days that were originally in the demo will be different! Hopefully changed for the better!
We’ve also started rolling out some kickstarter rewards! Do make sure to check your emails for the backers survey if you haven’t filled it up and do join our discord where we post kickstarter updates there!
We also host weekly events there too! A few weeks ago, our very talented discord mod aka sir cult woman, helped set up an ARG type puzzle and I’m going to be very real with you, I could not solve it for the life of me. ｢( • ﾍ •) But I’ve never had a knack for puzzles but thanks to everyone else who participated, I managed to solve it! Took a little longer than expected but solved nonetheless! ( ` ꒳ ´ )✧ Other than puzzles, we also have crosswords, collaborative playlists and many more!
Shameless plug ( ◡̀_◡́)ᕤ: https://discord.gg/CKRfuAPzb3
Anyways, that’s all for our January log! Once again, thank you for your support of Lover’s Enigma! And i’ll see you soon! ( ͡º ꒳ ͡º)
