0.7.5 is now officially released!

Nice, it's a good feeling to complete this one. As mentioned in previous posts, this update officially ends the Naoto storyline. What that means is that all of the core girls from Persona 4 officailly have full storyline's in the game now! Woo!

Fittingly enough, it's also the 7 month anniversary of Persona H! I started this project at the very beginning of February 2022, and here we are now in September and still going strong. Very excited to move into the next few updates, there is a TON of stuff I'm thinking about.

Alright, this update does a few different things. I focus on finishing Naoto's detective storyline, which naturally adds in another sex scene. I also work on adding some newer characters into the mix. Last update brought Adachi into the story briefly, but this updates fleshes out his character a bit more. With that, I also introduce Dojima for the first time into Persona H, and a few references as to where the storylines are going.

What I like most about this update is that it is becomming clearer to me where I want to take this story. I'm going to let the player have these branching paths as to which girl theywant to pursue. If they choose to pursue all girls however, there is a  stronger underlying storyline that has been building up.

I really want to start focusing on that storyline in the next few major update cycles. As this can be scene as the "Golden Path" or main quest line of the game.

That being said, this is also supposed to be a slice of life, simulation style fun dating sim game. So I also want to start focusing on the little details and interactions available. This is why for the enxt update cycle I got into 0.8, the focus is going to be Events/Interactions. This is so I can work more on the "dates" and cellphones activities and a few other things I'm not ready to reveal yet.

Even though Naoto's story is complete, have no fear. Naoto has plenty more scenes ahead and lots of events to come. Also, there are plenty more girls coming our way soon enough!

I can't thank you all enought for joining me on this advetnure so far, and I look forward to everything I want to work on for september!
