Hi friends! Bowser again. Just want to spread some holiday cheer and update you all on a few things!

First of all, if you follow us on Twitter, you would have seen that we just dropped our newest character reveal. 

Meet Skizzy, everyone! He's a punk bear dude with a bad attitude and ready to cause some mayhem! 🐻😈

You'll get to meet him in the upcoming Build 4. He'll be joining our cast of side characters and be featured prominently in Darrell's route. Those of you who read closely have already seen his name mentioned by Darrell during day 4.

Skizzy was illustrated and designed by our fantastic sprite artist, Drake! He'll be voiced by my lovely friend, Yao. 

Aside from that, here are some updates for Build 4:

• We're in the game building stage! All the text has been integrated into Ren'Py.
• I'm currently working on adding all of the sprite visuals and the sound design.
• Our newest CG is being worked on. Y'all aren't ready for this one 👀.
• Voice acting for Dave and April has been recorded! Now we just have to do each other character 😅.
• We're working on some new tunes for the show night! So excited for y'all to hear them :3.
• Our background artist, Rinzy, just finished up a new background! If you're on BlueSky, check it out!
• Skizzy & Vin sprites are 100% completed for Build 4. Now we're working on designing new outfits and expressions for the rest.
  • Stay tuned until the end of this devlog for a fun Vin update 😉.
• Been posting some goodies over on Patreon! Here's a preview!

As we wrap up the year, I just want to thank the ChoPro community for all the support and love this year. We really picked up steam in 2023, and I'm so eager to carry that momentum into 2024.

I'll give one last Christmas present to those of you who take the time to read through my devlogs. I put a lot of time and thought into these, and it means a lot you give them so much attention!

Here's the very important update we did for Vin's sprite going into Build 4 😉

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Happy Holidays to you all! 💖
