April brings new magic to Kitori Academy! 🌷

We've been working hard these past months, brewing tons of new features and improvements for Kitori Academy. The magic is starting to come alive!

🌱Greenhouse and botanic classroom🌱

Little by little, we’re filling the Academy with classrooms, hidden rooms, hallways, and exciting secrets waiting to be discovered.

Our latest addition? The Greenhouse! 🌿✨ This is where players will dive into the world of crops, plants, and harvesting. Just like the other classrooms, it will have:

🕰️ Scheduled Classes – Attend at the right time to participate! 👩‍🏫 A Dedicated Teacher – Ready to guide you through your botanical journey. 🎁 Fun Rewards! – Expect seeds, buffs for your crops, and other surprises.

✨NPC Schedule✨

One of the most overwhelmingly popular requests from our community has been to make the academy's students feel truly alive, creating a more immersive and vibrant world for players to explore.

For the past months, we have been working on the NPC system to make the Apprentices NPC feel like real people walking. So, for this huge task, we've added a few more exciting things:

✨They have their schedules during the day; they have a stack of behaviours that are selected depending on the weather, the day of the week and other conditions.

🗣️They can also interact with other NPCs and talk among themselves (just like in real life!)

🪑They also do other things, such as sitting on benches and leaning on walls.

We hope to have this system more refined and show you a little video of how it looks. For now, you can look at these pictures; we use those dummies to simulate these behaviours and save them in memory but don't worry, they will become proper NPCs when the player is around!

🌟Miscellaneous Updates!🌟

NPCs now appear in class cinematic when players decide to start a class to keep up with their magical studies!

We've added 4 new crops, but as you can observe in the picture, they are not regular crops; we enjoy taking vegetables and fruits and giving them a little twist. In the following picture, we have crops that could resemble berries, turnips and peppers. Currently we have a mixture of special and regular crops!
