Well, now that i played the new update, and with all the opinions about new icons in the comments here. Here is my little opinion:
The old ones where better, but still, that doesnt mean this new ones are ugly or bad art. Some of them are cute, atleast at my eyes (Andrew especialy). As someone said in the comments i hope you use this sprites for special days or episodes, or moments where the reality is distorded, so it would add even more confusion to the moment. Atleast thats my idea.
Something that upset me more than the new icons itself, its that the center sprite of the characther isnt changed, only the icon in text log. It was an always reminder that the change was there and present, so i was just center in the change itself and not adjusting to it.
By Gils Day 9, i liked it, the writting and events that occur in this day are really nice and fitting for Gils Route. But like Andy itself said at the end of the Episode, it felt a little rushed, not only for the 2 CGs missing in this episode, but it felt really short to.
Something i really liked was the little touch to some dialoges, like shaky dialoges, it always make me laugh. So overall i really liked this update, i really hope Andy reeds this feedbacks by the community, great job still.
I could not have put it any better. Have ten likes. It's not my VN, Andy can do what he likes but just saying, the priorities aren't prioritizing. The UI and the visual look of the game is amazing already (besides the new sprites) and has been for a year plus without all the changes that keep on coming and nobody is asking for. If it ain't broken no need to fix it. Please just focus on the story, the interface looks great already. Giving critique may not feel good to some but it's what everyone needs from time to time.
