Will the mini-game be about memorizing inputs to make Mezz dance or otherwise do something that arouses customers? Or is it a spoiler?
I concur that the art has improved, as it seems not only smoother and more consistent, but there's also more to each image. I think the tears were a nice addition to the second content pack, by the way, especially when one contemplates whether the tears are ecstasy, agony, or both. I also like how his fur distorts as they grab him, reminding us that he's fluffy and not the typical "rubber skin" cartoon character we see in other works.
Whatever is going on with your personal life, I hope you remember to take care of yourself, and to not get overtly stressed over timelines for your projects.
