Changelog

Update, December 22, 2023 Updated a new background image, both are mod characters, namely Moyo and Mincho.

I am working as a wage slave in a game company, so I have almost no time to make any mods now. I'm sorry... the race mod may be delayed indefinitely. Speaking of which,I thought my workload would be pretty small as the lead artist, but it turned out that the other members of the art team could only draw girls and scenes. So I almost took on all damn male roles······

Oh, by the way, my background pictures will be updated regularly, but mods I have played are very limited. So if you have a good theme that you think fits me, you can leave a reply in the comment area.
