There is a story in Verradin of a stranger who stepped into a house not knowing it once burned.
The scent of ash clung to the walls, though no one spoke of the fire.
He smiled, unaware that the warmth he found there
came not from the hearth—
but from the hands still healing from old flames.

Build Update 3: Chapter 3 & 4 Released + New Visual Upgrades

Hey everyone! Hakke here.
I’m excited to share that Chapters 3 and 4 of Room for One More are now live and fully playable!

What’s New in This Build:

• Chapters 3 & 4 are complete and introduces some key emotional beats and deepens the mystery, with 2 new CGs and about 31k words in total!

• New Sprite for Enko as revealed in the earlier Devlog!

• Font Optimization – We’ve tweaked the in-game font for better readability and visual comfort.

• Script Polishing – Revised dialogue and narrative flow for clarity, consistency, and character voice.

• Animation Improvements – Transitions and expressions have been refined for smoother, more expressive scenes.

• New Main Menu – A revamped look for a more immersive first impression.

• Early GUI Revert– Some interface elements have been reverted to the custom Renpy one (temporarily) for plans to overhaul it in the next build!

With how things are going in the story, we will further discuss the plans for the VN in general onwards in another Devlog, especially now since we're entering the arc  of our brooding rat boy, Coal!

And also we'll prioritize on updating our Patreon, so stay updated there and if you'd like, support our small team of two!

As always, thank you for your support, patience—it really means the world. I’m incredibly proud of how far this project has come, and we’re just getting started.

– Hakke 💙❤️
