Good afternoon everyone! It took a bit longer than expected, but the new build is finally here! Here's a list of all the changes: [list] [*]A completely revamped story, rewritten from the ground-up! Some scenes feel completely different, others were removed outright, and a few new ones were included to take their place. [*]2 brand-new CGs! [*]1 new music track, as well as a few changes to a pre-existing track. [*]New sound effects, mostly to enhance the first comic book sequence. [*]Typo and bug fixes. [/list] That might not seem like much, but I cannot express just how big that first point is. On top of huge quality improvements across the globe (meant to make the story feel faster and more focused), the removal of unnecessary sequences (either because they felt pointless, or included plot points that were never going to be addressed again) and the inclusion of new ones (which either introduce certain plot points sooner, or feel more relevant to the characters and the world) make the new Build of NMF feel like a completely new story, in spite of the fact that it's more or less the same. That said, as important as these changes were, they did sap a lot of our time (not to mention, some of our team members got injured along the way, and others left the project of their own volition, which further contributed to this late release), and I hope we'll never have to go through rewrites as extensive and stressful as these ever, EVER again. I understand some of you might not find the idea of reading the same story again all that amusing, but don't worry: Build 16 is already in the works, and should release much faster than this one did, likely sometime next month. Do let us know what you think of these new updates! And if you put off reading NMF in the past due to how "tedious" certain sections felt (especially near the beginning), then do consider giving it another shot now that the rewrites are out! Either way, we'll see you next time!
