The Sound of Fireworks: The Haiku changes
First off we want to say thank you to all who have Wishlisted, downloaded the demo, followed on Twitter (@TSOFGame), or have just put two eyes on the Store Page. This initial support has been crazy and not one bit did we expect it!
When we first announced the game on itch.io a few days before the Steam page launched, we laid out a timeline of how the progress of the game was going, and we'd like to bring that here as well. As of February, here's where the layout of progress stands:
Story/Writing - 100% Done
Art - 50% Done
Story Editing - 40% Done
Game Scripting - 40% Done
Now that the stress of getting both the itch.io and Steam pages live and ready is gone, we can get back to working. We'll try to update progress as it comes in, but most of our time will be set to moving the story into a readable "Visual Novel" format, applying the art (done by the incredible @thehesketts on Twitter) in the correct places, and balancing the full time jobs we both have outside of this project.
We want to thank the few people who took time to give some feedback upon what they saw on the demo, and the things that were stated we've taken to heart and will try to work on all that was brought up to the best of our abilities. Again, we never expected people to reach out and the effort given from you all was heartwarming!
Lastly, we want to brag upon your efforts so far! We're a week in on Steam and we are over 3,000 views and nearing 100 users on the Wishlist, which is just the best music to our ears! While we aren't ready to provide a specific release date, the moment we are confident we will let you know. But we are shooting for a 2021 release, and we're hoping to get our final product looking as best as it can as soon as we can.
So until then:

Best, TSOF Team
