June 2026 Update - CG updates and merch previews!

Howdy, everyone! How are y'all doing?

This month, we have quite a lot of art and merch updates! I've been busy figuring out shipping logistics for our Kickstarter backers and ordering merchandise for our upcoming online shop, while April and Purinco are speedily working on Jest Messters' sprites and CGs!

Here's this devlog's agenda!

• CG updates
• Merch preview
• Indie Wavemaker Exchange
• Acrylic standee poll

CG Updates

Our artists, April and Purinco, have combined forces and finished the first CGs of Matt and Seth! That means the first CGs of all the LIs are done (except the secret route- which I am unable to show in any devlog due to spoilers). Here's a preview!

Aren't they beautiful? I always gush over their art whenever they update their progress!

The full CGs are available for our Kickstarter backers!

Merch Preview

I'm proud to announce that we are officially done with all our Kickstarter backers' merchandise! This includes acrylic keychains for each character, bookmarks, postcards, and sticker packs! It's a bit early, but I am planning to ship the physical rewards soon!

Here are some pictures of the merch! (My photography skills need more work 😅)

I also did some test shipping to our beloved content creators... This shipping method seems to work fine!

Indie Wavemaker Exchange (Singapore)

We'll be attending IWX (Indie Wavemaker Exchange) in Singapore on 10th July 2026! It's mostly for indie developers, but feel free to drop by and say hi! We weren't informed of the booth details yet, but for more details on the event, you can take a look at https://indiewavemakers.com/iwx-2026/!

Acrylic Standee Poll

Not sure if you remember, but I made a huge fuss a few devlogs ago about choosing either acrylic keychains or standees for Jest Messters' Kickstarter rewards. All of you were very supportive in giving me feedback about your preferences, and in the end, keychains were preferred over standees, so I chose keychains instead!

But I REALLY want a standee of the characters for myself, so I decided to order the standees anyway!

So I'd like to ask for your opinion once again- if you were a customer, would you get the big (13x6 cm) or small (8x4 cm) standee?

Let me know your thoughts below!

Thanks for reading this far, and that's it for this month's devlog! See you next devlog and take care! Don't forget to follow our social media (https://linktr.ee/elseth) and wishlist/review the game on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/4328330/Jest_Messters_Demo/)!
