Hey everyone, some pretty important news for you today, so make sure to read the entire post!

First of all, let's get the big news out of the way - Tune in to the show will be split into two parts. With the release of Episode 9 in May, the first half of the story will be marked as complete, and the 2nd half of the story will be covered in Tune in to the show Part 2, which is going to be a separate game. This wasn't the original plan, and I didn't want to split the game into seasons like most other developers do, but it's become clear that it's the only feasible way to go about it financially. The situation is quite simple - if I don't release Part 2 as a separate game, I'll most likely run out of money before the game can be completed. My other project, An Evening of Wonders, turned out to be a complete flop, and I'd rather focus on Tune in to the show than gamble on another side project doing better to fund the development. I know this isn't great news, but it is what it is, and I hope you can understand my perspective.

So, how is it going to work? When Episode 9 releases in May, this game will be marked as complete. The future episodes will be a part of Tune in to the show Part 2, which is going to be a separate game on Steam. You'll be able to import your saves from Part 1 or just choose which girls you're romancing with a short quiz if you don't want to import saves. I'll create a store page for Part 2 soon so that you can add it to your wishlists before Part 1 is finished. I think that Part 2 will also be released in Early Access this year, once Episode 10 is ready (and it's going to be bigger than usual Episodes to start strong).

Now, onto the usual stuff - I'm currently working on Episode 9, and it's going pretty well so far. A lot of the writing is done already, and it seems that this update will be one of the longest ones yet. The renders are coming along nicely too, and I'll start working on the first animations soon. If you're interested in Diana, you'll also end up meeting her older sister in this update. She can be seen in the render below :) The release date is set to May, and I don't anticipate any issues meeting it since everything's going smoothly.

That's all for this post. I hope you're all doing well, and I'll see you in the next development update. Thank you for playing the game, reading, and your understanding,
