- 03/24 08:30 pm Monthly Newsletter February 2024 Hey everyone, we are back with the another monthly newsletter! Sonya finally got a new job, so financially she will be back on her feet soon, and new features will be coming to CloudNovel again. She's hoping to remake the visual novel of Skights into an RPG, using CloudRPG. For now she is still working on new visual novels, one that is already released with a prologue, and another more adventurous story. Sonya's Development Update Here is Sonya's official development update for this month: Hello guys/gals, I've been dealing with a lot lately, but at least I am able to continue working on my games again. First is Maid Café Simulator, as well as another visual novel called "Legend of Kunoichi: Karin" which is another pure visual novel game, where only choices affect the story (just like Café Rouge). Other than that, I'm finally going back to my projects again, which is great. You'll be seeing way more updates on all my games/stories very soon. Ciao~ -Sonya New Resources of the Week Wow, talk about another crazy amount of art submissions this month! So many people from our community created so much art this past week, it looks like a museum! These are just 8 of them submitted this month!

- 01/31 04:10 pm Monthly Newsletter January 2024 Hey everyone, we are back with the another monthly newsletter! Sonya is having a hard time financially, so this newsletter is condensed with just the basics the beginning of 2024. With so many things going on in the world, it's hard to remain positive, but Sonya is trying to remain strong, at least mentally, for the entire community of CloudNovel and our users. We still want this to be a welcome place for anyone to create games and stories, since all the kids in the world are going through a lot, in these hard times. Sonya's Development Update Here is Sonya's official development update for this month: Hello everyone, lots of bugs were fixed and a lot of things polished. We added a development page for CloudRPG game engine only available to Sakura members, but other than that nothing new or major has been added this month. I'm going through a hard time financially, so things will have to be slow for a while. I most likely have to take another development hiatus, until I get my life in order. Life is so hard, but you find reasons to keep going, even when your life becomes a disaster after all the choices you've made in your life, that led up to a horrible situation. You just got to keep going, and try to survive. At the end of the day, we all just have to grow up and realize that this world we live in, is not kind. This world we live in is very cruel, and the first targets are always innocent people, especially young people, because they are the easiest people to do harm to, and get away with. It's kind of unimaginable the horrors in real life we have to deal with, but the people above can do whatever they please, because they feel bored and just feel like kicking an innocent stray cat to say they accomplished something in their day, and call that progress for society. Oh well, that is reality we live in. Anyway, that's all I have for a development update this month.

- 12/08 06:34 pm Monthly Newsletter December 2023 Hey everyone, we are back with the another monthly newsletter! Sonya has added a lot of new features this month. Other than that, Sonya is trying to take it easy because with so many things going on in the world, she's trying to adjust but the mental pressure is hard to handle. Overall, it's been a hectic week for her, but there is a popular quote by the famous writer Oscar Wilde, "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars" that she repeats to herself, when times are tough. Featured Article: Neko Personality QuizTake the Neko Personality Quiz to find out which of the CloudNovel cat mascots you are!

Visit our blog post to read the full article: https://blog.cloudnovel.net/2018/08/01/the-neko-personality-quiz/ Sonya's Twitch Schedule Sonya is live streaming on holidays for a special Christmas and New Year's gaming stream! You can look at the full schedule here: https://www.twitch.tv/cloudnovel/schedule Sonya's Development Update Here is Sonya's official development update for this week: Hello everyone, these past few weeks I've fixed a ton of aesthetic issues with the CloudNovel store and other overall design bugs. A major change was also added to the forums, from now on you must be a premium member in order to post and create new topics. Of course, some specific forums are only allowed to the Ninja members and Sakura members, but a majority of them allow both. One huge feature we added this past week is the ability to add password access only, to your games. Well, to be honest it wasn't a new feature, but we made changes to it where it actually works, and there's no way for anyone to access the game without the password now! Thanks for reading, that's all I have for now! Ciao~ -Sonya Sonya's Closet Tour This is our special newsletter section showcasing all of Sonya's favorite things from her apartment, new and old.

- 11/29 03:17 pm Fairytale Jam (Summer Jam 2023) Result It is with great pleasure, that I, Princess Sonya, announce the prizes to all the entrants of our Summer game jam, the Fairytale Jam. This was our most exiting game jam yet to date, with the most beautiful games and art resources made, possibly ever! Princess Bed & Mattress – by @DouDou This is a beautiful set of gorgeous beds and mattresses that are inspired from the fairy tale “Princess and the Pea” where a girl is tested whether or not she is a real princess by sleeping on a stack of mattresses with a pea at the very bottom. Overall, the art is absolutely gorgeous and beautiful, and is a great resource for anyone in need of a high quality bed for their games or other projects. We will award you 1000 points! Lotus on Lily Pad – @FairyMary A beautiful lotus flower on a lilypad that is inspired from the original fairy tale “The Frog Prince” where a princess kisses a frog, who turns into a prince! Although this resource only has one image, it is very beautiful and has an Eastern feeling similar to ancient artwork from Asia! We will award you 250 points! The Red Shoes – @ChristinaChan Inspired from the fairytale, “The Red Shoes” this story tells the tale of a girl obsessed with a pair of pretty red heels, and due to her greed, something tragic happens to the girl to compensate for all her sins and wrongdoings! It is one of those children tales that is very cautious, because eventually she got what she deserves! There are a total of 3 pairs of shoes in this beautifully created resource, so we will award you 750 points! Arabian Prince Maker – @Pablo12 This beautiful dress-up game (although not many variations) is a great way to create your own Arabian prince. Overall, we decided to award 2000 points! Alice's Castle in the Cloud – @SeasonOfDreams A very poetic visual novel linear/kinetic story about Alice and her adventures in a castle in the clouds. This short game was probably meant as an interpretation for users of CloudNovel and how the platform is a dream castle (yes, very poetic indeed) and how everyone’s dreams came true, by creating their games and bringing their projects to life. Overall, we will award you 3000 points! Bluebeard and his Bride – @Jeison This touching romance novel is inspired from the classic horror fairy tale “Bluebeard” which tells the story of a naive girl who marries a rich and mysterious nobleman. Although the original horror elements of this story are completely absent from this retelling, it is a beautiful and heartfelt story about a married couple who have finally found love together. So we will award you 3000 points! Princess Kaguya – @celestialMaiden This visual novel retells that classic Japanese folktale “Tale of the Bamboo Cutter” and is a great short visual novel for anyone to read if they never heard of this fairy tale. Overall, the artwork for the game is probably the most beautiful out of all the other entries, so we will award 4200 points! Escape Braaphog – @fnafpizzeriaofficial Wow, what a clever story! The art and story is so unique, we decided to feature this game in our judging because it is so iconic by a “first time” user and participant in our game jams! Overall, we will award 1 point! That's it! Thanks for reading, that's all we have for this game jam! Next, we will have a Romeo & Juliet Jam, it will be announced later on in the coming months!
