So it's been a long time since i've posted a devlog that wasn't just update notes. Right now I don't have a microphone so it might be a bit before i can upload a video devlog, and also it's sometimes a bit of a challenge to figure out what exactly to say during those devlogs because i don't want to reveal too much about puzzles or story and that's about 85 - 90% of what i work on.

BUT, one thing that is no long story related, and therefore is no longer a spoiler is the toolbox. 

If you are part of the handman discord you may have seen that i posted a poll a while back about it.  i was considering making access to it story dependent, but the votes came in and rather than making it based on decisions made within the game it will be given to everyone. In fact, it will be available from day 1, not starting on day 6 as i initially intended.

The toolbox can hold up to 4 tools. This will give you some added inventory space, but additionally, tools that you leave in your toolbox at the end of the day will still be in your toolbox to start the next day. So... yes, you will be able to bypass some of the tool related puzzles this way, but keep in mind that doing so may cause you to miss some treats.  For example, you can take the hammer into day 4 and therefore have it right away. But you won't be able to get into shenanigans with Danna if you do that. 

So each character has a set number of facial expressions and they could be changed from one expression to another, but i've now made it so they can also be combined which creates a ton variation that can be created by mixing them. In the picture below you can also see that I've tweaked the profile image so that it's pulled in more to the girls face, it's also a less distorted image (previously the image had the distortion effect of a camera being very close). And you may also notice that Araceli now actually faces you while talking to you if you talk to her while she's working (there is also an animation that connects her standing animation to her fabric cutting animation so she doesn't just shoot from one to the other).

So general update on day 6. I guess the safest thing i can say is that i have large chunks of it either done or pretty far along.  The days job is done, the main sex animation is 2/3 done. puzzles are somewhat harder to gauge in their completion because while i have a general idea of how they'll work, their is still some figuring out to do.

The largest question mark is whether i want to add a second scene.  When i say that the main sex animation is 2/3 done, that is assuming that there will be only one scene. if i add a second scene, there will cease to be A main sex scene. there will be 2 scenes but they will be exclusive, meaning a decision you have previously made will send you toward one scene or the other. if i do that, it will obviously take longer for me to complete the day.

And finally, without any context what so ever... here's this
