addedFor One Year update statusThis release will also include new "entertainers"! I'm sure you noticed that once you completed the main entertainer story-line the dateable traveling entertainer is replaced by a couple no-name entertainers (well, they do have names, but you get what I mean: they're side characters just so that the entertainer's wagon still has a purpose). It was always the intention for there to be four of these "no-name" entertainers, to give you a little more variety in case you decide to keep visiting, but in order to not delay the initial release of the entertainers, two of the four were cut! (In fact, if you ever went digging around in the game files, you may have even noticed the other portrait graphics for the two cut entertainers!) Well, now those two have been given full-screen encounter art - I hope you look forward to "meeting" them in the next release ;)
changedA lovely review of One Possible FutureIf you haven't checked it out yet, and a shorter adventure with girls & robots (and a chill synth soundtrack) sound like something you'd be interested in, please give One Possible Future a try :)
changedHushberry's next gameAlongside For One Year's next update, work on Hushberry's next game is also progressing! Without saying too much, it's looking like it will be a game about racing in the late 70s to early 90s, with a funky-synth soundtrack. The gameplay is currently looking to be little closer to For One Year than One Possible Future, with mini-games and a variety of dateable characters, but the game is still in very early development and subject to change!

For One Year update status
Writing & artwork for Sylvie - the synesthetic painter who will be For One Year's next dateable character - is looking good! The broad strokes are in place, and all the little details are getting filled in. Next will be play-testing, tweaking, and yet more testing, until everything's looking good!
