**This update was first posted on Patreon before I made the decision/announcement to switch to the episodic format, and was still working on this as one big game**

This took me a while because I was also entirely redoing the way lighting is done in the game, but I got some new rooms for you guys to look at! The first is a sort of main hub/lobby of the Temple, which has 4 gates that will be locked. This level of the game will have four quadrants that you can go through in any order, and once you go through all of them, you'll reach the boss fight and proceed to the next level! I made the first room for each of the four paths, and from here on the rest of the rooms will be more distinct (seeing as the first rooms are all basically the same haha). This level will feature plenty of lore and hopefully some interesting puzzles (if I am capable of making interesting puzzles). Should be fun!

Aside from redoing all of the lighting in the game, I also realized that a lot of the voice clips sounded worse than they were supposed to because I had them all set to compressed in GameMaker. Whoops! I went through each one and unchecked that, so now all of them (except Rina and Jyl's in some lines) sound exactly how I intended them to! I'm planning to buy a nice Blue Yeti mic in the next month or so, and once I have one in my greasy mitts Sonny and I will re-record Rina and Jyl so I no longer have to use clips we recorded in his car with my phone. But hey, placeholders are only temporary
