The theme of the fifth major update is the addition of 20 new costumes and new hairstyles
The update is expected to be divided into three phases


=======================
Phase 1 update
Added 20 new outfits, shoes
The main clothing types are close-fitting and daily wear, large skirts, swimwear, etc.

Phase 2 update
Add a new hairstyle combination, you can match the style yourself

Phase 3 Update
Additional bikini styles, a variety of bra matching
Added more accessories: breast rings, earrings, eye masks, gag, crotch tattoos, eye colors, and missing parts


Most of the clothing additions this time are popular clothing
Such as Goethe, Maid, Kimonos, dresses, Pajamas, Swimsuit, short skirts + black silk + student socks, etc.
There are 20 pieces in total, and 20 new pairs of shoes
It is expected that each piece will have six colors, and can adjust the gloss, metallic, and chroma


This time, we will also implement a little more hairstyles, I especially love the android 18 (❛◡❛✿)
Long hair is the feature of this time, and the hairstyle will be designed to be freely matched with bangs

It is expected to be completed in the first phase of May at the earliest, and the slowest is unknown
Kazuya said: The time here is only an estimate, and I am currently working on the fourth major update.

Hi, everyone, I'm tensun3d
The materials of the 5th major update are as you can see, the key projects have almost been completed, just waiting for it to be put into the game.
What we promised, we will try our best to realize it and will not break our promise.
The part that I can't do means that my ability is not enough, I can only hope if I have the opportunity to challenge and succeed in the future.
I live alone so my life is simple, I get up to work every day when I get enough sleep, rest when I get tired, just take care of myself alone.
I live to 45 and still can't buy a house, I should rent it for the rest of my life, so I don't have much chance to spend it.
Doing R18 is my mission, I enjoy it, although there are many twists and turns on the way.
But gradually I can accept this kind of fate, as long as my body and spirit conditions allow it to continue to do it, I will continue to move forward, and I will not be absent.
I hope that this road will finally draw a no-regret rest.
And the 5th update will be the last major update in terms of material.
The 6th major update is ready to end the game.
Please allow me to hurry up and start all the materials for the next new game after these tasks are over.
The programmer will continue to update these completed assets until the game update of Sword Hime is completed.
Otherwise, our cash flow will not be connected and there will be difficulties.
I don't have many expenses to survive, but the programmer kazuya has to carry a family of seven, he will have a big financial gap.
Players who have followed this game from the beginning to the present should be able to feel it, the initial review of our game was very terrible, and the sales were very bad, but after the continuous support and encouragement from players, game sales have finally been able to break even now.
I also lost two games in a row for more than 4 years without any income.
Kazuya was also in need of loans because of financial difficulties at the time.
And the timely rain of this game has calmed the drought in recent years. I really thank you for all your big support.
And because of this, we decided to spend nearly 2 years to keep updating this game without charging any extra fees.
This is also the main reason why we don't release DLC, all major updates are paid back to players for free.
However, now that game sales have plummeted, funding will be short in the near future.
So it is expected that after the 6th major updates are over, I hope all players can understand that we have to hurry to develop the next new game.
I also hope that in the next game, you can come back to support. (っ●ω●)っ ヾ('ω'⊂ )))Σ≡
