This seems like a silly question but if we preordered the plush a couple months ago do we need to do it again now that the campaign launched?
Sorry it’s a stupid question but I’m just worried in case I miss it :(
It's not silly, you just want to be sure!
You should be seeing the remaining balance from your initial pledge being taken out. My email said it would be taken out today, the 30th!
If you were able to participate in the pledge part of the campaign several months ago, your order is already in, you do not need to purchase the plush. They will simply deduct the remaining amount of the plush, plus shipping, and yours will be shipped out among the estimated date.
This is the email I got, so check and see if you got one and reach out to the Gimme Swag Team if you need to update anything!
Again, the production and distribution of the Pierrot plush is being handled by our partners at Gimme Swag!
So, reach out to them with your concerns! We're consumers just like everyone else in this campaign!
Pierrot Plush is now Live!
Good news, everyone! The plush from Gimme Swag has released and is now available for purchase!
Just go to the link above to order your favorite yandere boy! Please be aware the current estimated shipping date is between December 30th and January 30th!
This campaign is in partnership with Gimme Swag, and it's only available for a limited time!
We know many of you were worried about missing the first pre-order, so this is your chance to finally bring Pierrot home and have him in your arms!
The campaign will only be available for 30 days. Once it ends, the plush will no longer be available for purchase, and there won't be any extra stock available.
So be sure to keep an eye on the campaign dates so you don't miss your chance!
Pierrot Plush
Hey everyone! We have a quick update for those who follow us here, who were able to be part of the preorder many months ago for the Pierrot plush from Gimme Swag!
In case you didn't see the email, the remaining balance for the preorder charge will be processing on June 30th!
And for those who were not part of the preorder, Gimme Swag's campaign will be launching on the 30th as well so you can purchase your own Pierrot plush then. The plush will be available for purchase for 30 days!
We will of course share that link here once the campaign is live, so keep an eye out for it!
Some Information, Updates, and Clarification
Hello everyone, Neko here!
(And currently a little sick, so I apologize for not clarifying things sooner!)
In previous posts, I mentioned a new partnership in China and official merchandise being made available there as well!
The Chinese side of the fandom showed a lot of interest in official merchandise and actively requested official products. Thanks to that support and enthusiasm from the fans, our partner, Chun Li Ji, reached out to me and kindly offered to help make that happen. China was actually one of the countries where I wasn't even sure I would be able to ship products myself, so their help has been incredibly valuable!
So far, no other companies in other countries have expressed interest in a partnership. Because of that, I've been working on creating my own store, which I've mentioned a few times before. Making these sorts of partnerships is a slow, careful process, and they don't appear overnight or happen without effort on part of a creator, the fans, and the companies themselves— these things take time and a great amount of care!
The first wave of products in the store I myself will be opening and running will include keychains, tickets, dakimakuras, acrylic stands, and a few other items! If everything goes well with production and shipping, I'll be able to start expanding the lineup with pins and other merchandise in the future.
Please remember that I myself am not a company, so finding suppliers and producing everything takes time. The first samples I received from some manufacturers didn't meet the quality standards I was looking for, so there's been a lot of research and testing involved in finding suppliers that can deliver the quality I want for you all. So until other partnerships are secured, I am working as quickly and as passionately as I can to allow fans elsewhere to have merchandise of these characters that they love so much, and it means a lot that you all are so outspoken and passionate about it!
Several products are already in production but they haven't arrived yet, which is why the store hasn't opened.
And throughout all of this, I refuse to put the game's update on hold! So yes, that means I'm also working hard on getting the Day 3 update out at the same time.
As soon as the products arrive, I'll be able to make posts showing everything in detail before the store officially opens.
As always, I'll keep you updated as I receive news about both the official Chinese merchandise and my own store!
I'm also aware of an unauthorized plush currently being produced and sold by a manufacturer without permission. The necessary steps are already being taken to address the situation.
Thank you all for your patience and support. I'll continue sharing updates as soon as I have more information to provide!
Askbox update!
Good morning all! Tazz here with an update for how the askbox is going to be operated going forward!
We will have the askbox open Monday thru Friday, the first week of every month. It will then close for the remainder of the month, giving us and Neko much more time to work on answering questions.
So, yes, the askbox is now OPEN!
Please remember to read through our FAQ before asking and see if your question has already been answered in the masterlists to avoid the question being deleted, thanks!
I'm really hooked on these animations!
Happy Birthday Harlequin!
Another illustration with the studio @春醴记工作室! I’m so happy to see Harlequin receiving so much love! Thank you, everyone! So many beautiful and adorable artworks of our lovable little green menace! Happy Birthday, Harlequin!
And just like Pierrot, I ended up making another little tribute haha
Also, only today did I realize Harlequin’s cake flavor would actually be different… oops! =u=''
Mais uma ilustração com o estúdio @春醴记工作室!! Estou tão feliz em ver Arlequim recebendo tanto amor! Obrigado pessoal! Tantas artes lindas e fofas com nossa adorável ameaça verde! Feliz aniversário Arlequim! E como Pierrot eu fiz outro pequeno tributo haha! Também só hoje fui perceber que o sabor do bolo de Arlequim seria outro... ops!
Happy birthday, Harlequin! 💚💕
I also had a drawing drafted for him but alas… 😔

I made this illustration in collaboration with @春醴记工作室 Studio! I never imagined seeing so much love and so many beautiful artworks celebrating Pierrot’s birthday! I’m truly delighted!
I also made another fun one as an extra little tribute haha!
By the way, some of you may have seen the earlier post where the symbol on Pierrot’s left arm had the wrong color. That was completely my fault, sorry about that hehe. I was so excited that I let that slip by!
Thank you all so much for the messages for Pierrot!
New partnership!

I had a drawing planned for him too, but I lost motivation. 😔 I have a feeling Harlequin’s bday drawing will also be left as just a sketch… 😔😔

General Updates Again!
A summary of all the recent updates until I start working on the game code! Store First, about the store let me explain it better. I am working on it and getting some help with it, but to operate it I need a certificate that hasn’t been finalized yet. (I didn’t know running an online store would be this complicated >.>"") In the meantime, I’m testing different suppliers for keychains, tickets, and other small items. I’ll post more about this when the time comes, so don’t worry!
Script The script is finally finished! It ended up at 76 pages (the previous chapter had 47 pages). But keep in mind this is because of the multiple routes you can take, so I’m not entirely sure how long each route is individually.
Now I’ll start reviewing it completely! That means I need to read and revise every page (I might have some help with that as well). During this process, all dialogue is adjusted to better fit each character, I check if all routes are properly connected, and I’ll also update that map I showed before. This is also where I might remove or add parts to the script. At the moment, this update includes 1 new bad ending and 2 new hidden scenes (there might be more after the full script revision). You’ll be able to interact with almost all (living) characters (although the boss has a small scene that I’m not sure if it will be expanded in this update or added in the next one).
Pierrot Plush Good news, everyone! Gimme Swag has managed to get a more accurate version of Pierrot! Just the hair and a star in his hat needs to be adjusted this time, and then it will be the final version ready for production! Keep an eye on your emails for updates on when the next phase will begin, and for the total cost of the plush to be charged! Those who couldn't participate could also buy it it will be available for a while at the Gimme Swag store, and I'll let you know as soon as it's there!
Português Loja Primeiro, sobre a loja, deixe-me explicar melhor. Estou trabalhando nela e recebendo alguma ajuda, mas para operá-la eu preciso de um certificado que ainda não foi finalizado. (Eu não sabia que administrar uma loja online seria tão complicado >.>"" ) Enquanto isso, estou testando diferentes fornecedores para chaveiros, ingressos e outros itens pequenos. Vou postar mais sobre isso quando chegar a hora, então não se preocupem!
Roteiro O roteiro finalmente está pronto! Ele acabou ficando com 76 páginas (o capítulo anterior tinha 47 páginas). Mas tenha em mente que isso acontece por causa das múltiplas rotas que você pode seguir, então não tenho certeza de quanto cada rota dura individualmente.
Agora vou começar a revisá-lo completamente! Isso significa que preciso ler e revisar cada página (talvez eu tenha alguma ajuda nisso também). Durante esse processo, todos os diálogos são ajustados para se encaixar melhor em cada personagem, eu verifico se todas as rotas estão conectadas corretamente e também vou atualizar aquele mapa que mostrei antes. Esse também é o momento em que posso remover ou adicionar partes ao roteiro. No momento, esta atualização inclui 1 novo final ruim e 2 novas cenas secretas (pode haver mais depois da revisão completa do roteiro). Você poderá interagir com quase todos os personagens (vivos) (embora o chefe tenha uma cena pequena que ainda não tenho certeza se será expandida nesta atualização ou adicionada na próxima).
Pelúcia do Pierrot Boas notícias, pessoal! A Gimme Swag conseguiu fazer uma versão mais fiel do Pierrot! Só o cabelo e uma estrela no chapéu precisam ser ajustados desta vez, e então será a versão final pronta para produção! Fiquem de olho nos seus e-mails para atualizações sobre quando a próxima fase vai começar e sobre o custo total da pelúcia a ser cobrado!
Quem não pôde participar também poderá comprar, ele ficará disponível por um tempo na loja da Gimme Swag, e eu aviso assim que estiver lá!

Askbox Open
And after a long-awaited couple weeks, the askbox is now OPEN again!
Please make sure to read though the FAQ before sending your questions in!
Moving forward, we have also decided open the askbox on a bi-weekly basis now. This gives us more time to get to questions while not overwhelming our own schedules.
As usual, asks will be open from Saturday morning until Sunday evening!
