[UPDATE! The fanart challenge will be ending October 31, 2024, 23:59 EST] (No more submissions are being taken for the fanart challenge. If I missed your entry, please DM me!)

Hey Chordies! It's Bowser :3.

It's that time of year again! Who's ready for scares and freights? 🎃👻🦇

I've decided to put together a fun little fanart challenge recently inspired by some Q&A questions I recently answered over on Retrospring. The challenge is to draw any ChoPro character wearing a Halloween costume! If you can complete this by November 1, 2024, you'll receive FREE Chord Progressions: Staccato, for life! As a reminder, Staccato is our short story series that's exclusive to Patreon subscribers.

Here are the rules:

• Fanart can feature the character wearing any Halloween costume.
  • If you want some inspiration, check out my Retrospring posts on how I would like to see my characters dressed up!
    • SFW Costumes
    • NSFW Costumes
      
    • Check out these entries made by HoriFalls and Tracy! Thank you both so much :3.
• Fanart must be of canonical Chord Progressions character.
• Finish the piece and upload it by November 1, 2024.
• Be 18+ (obviously)

That's it! If you complete this challenge, I'll keep your name on a list, and every time Staccato updates, you'll receive a DM from me with a link to the latest update!

Speaking of Staccato, let me tell you how that's going!

• The story for Staccato's 5th entry is almost finished. It'll be about 5k words and will explore the blossoming romance between Trent & Darrell during the events of Chester's route.
• Still need it reviewed by our editors.
• Once it's reviewed, I have all the assets I need! I'll throw it together in RenPy and upload it to Patreon.
• My goal is to have this done before Halloween.

Here are some Build 6 updates!

• We have three new BG's for you! One of them is done, the other two are in the works.
• New CG is still in the works. Cream has it all sketched out and I'm really excited to see how it all pans out 👀.
• Sprites are underway! Right now Drake is working on the sprite for our newest character, Randy! I'll be publishing some official artwork of him next month to the public :3. Patrons get to see Randy first.
• Voice recordings are about half done. Randy, Dave, Moriah, April, and Corey have been recorded!
• New track for this build is done! Axel worked hard on this one, can't wait for you all to hear it :3.
• Writing and sprite placement (for everyone except Randy) are 100% done!
• I was hoping to get a review copy ready by the end of the month. But there's still a ton of work to be done, so I'll be putting that off until November. Hopefully, public release of Build 6 can happen before December.

That's it y'all! Take care, and Happy Halloween! 😸💖
