TLS 0.45.2 Public Release + Art Preview

As you probably know, TLS is now in the process of getting custom artwork for every scene in the game. I want to introduce it in a significant chunk instead of starting with just a few images, but many scenes have already been drawn. They're available to patrons at high resolution, but meanwhile I wanted to provide a little preview of what will be added to the game:

TLS 0.45.0
 - End of chapter and interlude.
 - Two new scenes.
 - Last investment/research cycle of this chapter.

This is a quieter update, but it includes some new plot/lore elements that I think people will enjoy. ^-^ With this, the fourth chapter is complete and the stage is set for the last!

Normally I take a chunk of time off from TLS between chapters, in order to shift gears creatively and recharge. But lately my attention has been pulled between several different projects, so the situation is a bit different. Not only do I not need a break from TLS, I don't really want to take one. Once I've taken care of any issues this update and balance is finalized, I'll start working on 0.46.0.

However, with the fourth chapter complete, there are a couple things I intend to do over the coming weeks. I'll be talking with patrons about my thoughts regarding a major project to succeed TLS. I wouldn't start work on it soon, but extended projects need a lot of time to develop mentally. There will also be some special art previews for my forthcoming epic fantasy project.

Anyway, that's all for now! Public update in a week.
