Hello Patrons!

It's the end of an era here at Cinnamon Switch headquarters. This month marks the final time where we're releasing monthly early access builds to our patrons. Starting next month, we're only going to be distributing Mice Tea as a retail release. So that means this is the last chance for all you $5 patrons to get a handle on the game.

HOWEVER: If you have contributed $20 or more since January 2022, you will be getting a retail copy of Mice Tea! That's cumulative, so if you've donated $5 for four months, the final game is yours to have forever!

If this applies to you, you'll be getting your download code in the first week of February. That will let us take into account your February pledge. It will still be early access, but you'll get every single update we ever put out for the game, so don't worry about having to buy it again. Unless you really want to, in which case: hey, thanks for the extra support! Maybe your friend would like a copy.

Anyway, with that out of the way, we have a nice big update for you this month!

New Story and Art - The Second Sylvia Stage Magic Scene

For a while the Sylvia magic act has had only one option for what volunteer could be chosen. That's finally been doubled with the addition of another scenario! This one stars the lovely Zoey, an office worker who just needs to unwind. Sylvia gives her the opportunity, though in her own peculiar way. It's all accompanied by a new set of CGs by UltraBondageFairy, who went all out to appeal to the fashion fans amongst our audience. Find it all in the alternate Sylvia route!

UBF has also improved the backgrounds of a number of CGs this month, including the one that appears directly after the magic act. Go ahead and stick around afterwards for some steamy, coily sex right afterward.

New Art from The Transformistress - Two New CGs

We've got two new Transformistress CGs for you this month, both from the Julie path. We noticed that for a storyline that involves a few heists, there weren't many visual representations of them. That's why we had Mira draw a CG for the initial break-in at Ricky's gallery. It combines bondage, burglary, and boobs in a way that really cuts to the heart of the Julie route experience.

On the other end of the spectrum, we have a very sweet, very expressive CG that shows a date night later in Julie's narrative. It' also includes some background cameos of two other characters having a great time acting out their own little B plot in the background. See if you can catch them!

New Art from KDhynamo - Sprites, Improvements, and More Cow

We're approaching the end of development, which means KD has been hard at work polishing various elements of the game's sprites and CGs. That's everything from coloring in lined panels to improving mirroring on sprites to additional eye expressions for Margaret to more underwear options for Margaret in her mirror examination scenes. There's also a new cameo sprite in the form of Mr. Plinksy, who appears in the epilogues for both Sylvia endings.

The real attraction this month is the addition of more art in the cow TF that appears in the Julie route. The TF is now more detailed, and shows more of the end product. And in this case, we do mean "product."

They make a lot of milk, is what we're saying.

Accessibility Improvements - More Screen Reader Support

Our VN engine Renpy has built in support for screen readers for blind players and those who just would rather hear the story rather than read it off the screen. Even though it's automatic, it can be an incomplete experience for users who take advantage of it. That's why we've gone through and added alt descriptions for things like character introductions, scene transitions, dialogue size and font distinctions, and other aspects that were previously only shown visually and not described in the text. We hope this change will allow more people to experience the game in the way that suits them best.

And that's it for this month's update! We thank you all so much for your support overall these years and hope you are as satisfied with the end result as we are. We'll see you next week with the commercial release of Mice Tea!
