I just put out a new update for Rill the Otter!

This one has been in the works since about June, and part of it might've come out earlier, but I was busy on vacation for around 2 weeks and couldn't quite work on it then.

Firstly, the most obvious change is the new character, Aquents the Frog. I had to remove the previous character, Flynn the Fox, due to me and my former Partner breaking up. And since they designed the chracater of Flynn, and everything around him, I obviously didn't want any of that shit in my game anymore, so he got the boot.

And so I created Aquents! Another character right off of my dome. I'm really happy with how she turned out, and I think she works really well alongside Rill.

The harder to notice change is that I slightly edited Tanic's sprites, to give his spines a more laid-back look, and an overall rounder eye shape, as well as updated some of the lower effort sprites i.e. climbing. I did this, as well as updating the shading, to bring him up to snuff with the other two in quality.

Finally, I updated the menu music, as I personally think this music works better than the previous piece.

As a final note, I need to say that I'm probably not gonna work on anything substantial for Rill anymore. Believe it or not, This one level is all I'm probably gonna get out of myself for another few years. I know I designed a whole story, and location, and all that, but I realistically can't make any of this. I barely have any game developing knowledge, and my ideas are far too ambitious. I have since decided to draw out the story as a comic book, and will upload it online, on my profiles or as a link in the description of the game to download.

I am thinking on making seasonal skins of Rill, that may get released a week or two before holidays like Christmas and Halloween, but I'll need to have a better think about it.

Thank you all for taking such an interest in Rill the Otter, and my art in general.
