The RPG Maker 2025 Game Jam results came out, and "Masaki's Way of Saving The World" won the Best Visual Design category?! We also got a runner up in the Best Narrative category! Thank you so much to everyone who has played our game and supported us while we went crazy that month! I'm so grateful and touched that people enjoyed the experience and story we tried to tell, it's kind of dizzying haha

We are still in the midst of working on Masaki's next updates, such as a new map, slightly expanded story(?), extra little tidbits and hopefully fixes since we ran into a lot of bumps trying to build a game on our own for the first time... and of course, we're also planning on making more games! I have something in the works (hoping to drag Shira along with me as always hehe)... if anyone wants to know more, you can check out our group's itch.io Iris to ID, and follow us on twitter and bluesky. I'll occasionally post some wips and updates on my twitter too over at @hannatokki.

Watching and playing the other entries has been so much fun, and everyone made really incredible things! This experience has been great, we deeply appreciate everyone's feedbacks and kind comments... we learned a lot and hope to bring what we've learned and more with us in the future. ;w; As Shira said, the jam might be over, but we're just getting started! Hehe

I'm not used to writing devlogs, so before I ramble too much, I'll end this off with another immense thank you to everyone!!
