Some new update!!!The DLC are almost done

Hi guys!!Rice here!

I am back from the short break!

Again, thank you for all your support! Heart Cage is 140% funded! Really amazing!

Recently, I've been busy setting up the BackerKit store, preparing the survey for the backers, 

and working on the Heart Cage Steam page!

Also, I am working on the Patrons-only DLC these days, and I am happy to announce that

all scripts are done!! I will send it to the VA after the translation and finishing all the 

CGs for the DLC; the above are the drafts of the CGs(I want to surprise all of you so

I have yet to reveal all of it!)

The release date will be around November!

Here are some features of the Patrons-only DLC:

❤Six short stories, each story featuring one love interests

❤1-1.5 hrs playtime

❤Fully voiced

❤1-2 CGs for each story

❤Some stories may contain NSFW scene(with NSFW cgs)

❤You may know the character deeper, also more clues for the truth

I hope you guys enjoy it! Especially for those who want to know more about the character's thoughts.

For the main game development

In addition to continuing the script and art development, I'm also preparing to hire a freelance background artist to help illustrate the characters' rooms. I want to highlight their personality traits even more than before. 

I'll also try to include some Easter eggs and details to see if you all notice them!

Furthermore, I'll be working on some new UI designs, such as a character gallery and a chapter section page.

The remain stretch goals

Regarding the stretch goals that were not achieved on Kickstarter, aside from the Clark route, which will be turned into a DLC for sale. If funding permits, later on, I will pursue all of them! Especially the 18+ DLC that many of you are interested in!

 I will also add acrylic keychains and acrylic standees of Sid, G#, and Clark to the BackerKit store for everyone to purchase.

Now, I'd like to share some of my feelings during this period:

Firstly, I'm truly delighted that all of you love and support Heart Cage so much! The month of running the Kickstarter campaign felt incredibly slow, and my emotions fluctuated greatly. Some situations caused me immense stress and nearly broke me, but luckily, everything was resolved successfully!

Nevertheless, Kickstarter was a true success in the end! And we even reached the stretch goal for Sid's route just before concluding the campaign. It feels like a miracle to me! It's hard to imagine that a project I created could receive such incredible support. I'm extremely grateful to everyone who helped me during this time, whether it be live streamers who showcased Heart Cage, friends who shared and promoted it, or my dedicated Patrons, backers, and supporters. Without all of you, none of this would have been possible! Heart Cage is a labor of love for me, and I promise you I will put in 1000% effort to complete it! 

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch with me anytime through PM or the Discord group. I will do my best to respond!

See you in the next update! Love you all!
