I apologise for bothering again.
There haven't been any updates on itchio for a while (and I couldn't find any recent mentions of "To Become A Tengu" at the developers' twitter accounts), so I was wondering if the first route was still planned to be released this year? Or did something happen and the project was put on hiatus?
Sorry again if what I wrote above sounded too impatient. I loved the demo so much I couldn't stop replaying it and I kept checking "To Become A Tengu"'s itchio page for new updates almost every day.
