Hello there, DinoMan here with a new public release for CBLT! This is it! We've finally gotten back to where we left off, and this release is going to be the last of the recoded versions - from here on out, it's going to be nothing but brand new versions!

I give thanks to the entire dev team, who have been a big help in regards to the development of this update, as well as the betas who have been hard at work testing for bugs. A huge shoutout to my Patrons as well, who have been willing to help financially support the development of the game. And the biggest shoutout to everyone who's followed me and the rest of the dev team throughout this journey - thanks for playing CBLT, and we hope you continue to enjoy it as we start delving into the storyline in 0.6 and beyond!

As always, don’t forget to give any feedback and report any bugs on:

For Windows Users – It’s suggested you install the Avenir Medium and the Avenir Edited fonts from the /fonts folder to prevent a possible bug when using the phone.

WHAT’S NEW IN CBLT 0.5?!

Week Four 85.714286% Complete – The adventures of Team CBLT continue! We see the aftermath of Cobalt upgrading his weapons, as well as the build up to one of the biggest events in the game thus far! We also have appearances from Mina, Aureum and Nora in this update!

Week One 90% Complete – Is it just me, or are studies at Beacon getting more intense? It could be because of the new academic timetable that's been put into place at Beacon starting with this update, which means that most of the events from Week One have been pushed to the first Monday! In their place, a bunch of new interactions between the various members of CBLT have been written, as they begin to bond with each other while getting used to their... antics.
(Combat Scenes are still not written yet.)

Beacon's Cafeteria is now Hiring! – Should you find yourself needing to make extra cash, you can take the opportunity to help Horatio Soplar in the kitchens of Beacon Academy, and help feed the ravenous hordes of students at dinner time! But be wary... this job is not for the faint-hearted.

New Backgrounds (Bunnyvoid) – Bunnyvoid continues to create amazing backgrounds for CBLT! She created a brand new... semi-new... repurposed classroom? gym for the students to go and get some exercise in... it's also a good place for players to increase their fitness social stat. And they also have energy drinks too, like People Like Grapes soda, and Hetap!*

And we also have a brand new location - the Locker Room! This is seems to be a common area for students to first meet each other and make plans for initiation. Each student has been assigned one rocket-propelled locker to store their weapons and extra armor, and if necessary, boyfriends who they need to send to safety so they can go fight an impossible battle against a powerful opponent. ...And suddenly, I feel like I've been shot through the heart by an arrow.
*We actually don't have Hetap in the game. Sorry.

New Music Pieces (PlotTwistStudios) – PlotTwist continues to make new music pieces for CBLT! Joining the CBLT Soundtrack this time are pieces such as “Dithering Sorrow” and “Unknown Familiarity."

Coco Adel (New Character) – After introducing some original characters, it’s time to bring in some more of the RWBY stars. The first of which being the well-styled fashionista Coco Adel, leader of Team CFVY! And she won’t be alone either, as she’ll be joined by someone who will be appearing in CBLT as Miss Adel’s girlfriend…

Velvet Scarlatina (New Character) – Yep, the Aussie bun bun has come to Team CBLT! And you’ll be meeting both her and Coco in a spectacular – but painful, and embarrassing – fashion when Week 4 rolls around!

Shadow Blue (New Character) - Shadow is a professional Huntress, having graduated from Beacon a few years prior - and if the last name wasn't a giveaway, she also happens to be Cobalt's sister! But will she be reunited with her brother in this episode? And just what brings her to Beacon in the first place? Only Ozpin knows for sure...

Nurse Rain Bow (New Character) - Hello nurse! If any of the characters ever find themselves needing medical attention, they can go to the infirmary and seek out Beacon's best nurse, the lovely (but shy) Rain Bow! Even if she's only needed part of the time because of how aura works... ah well.

Cardin Winchester (New Character) - Welp. Beacon's resident bully. Carries a big mace, likely to compensate for other shortcomings. Since we did some rewrites to Week One, and added a Locker Room, you can probably guess what he's going to do next.

BlueFire’s One Year Anniversary Event (Writng + Art) – After one whole year of dating each other, Cobalt and Blaze are finally doing something to celebrate the occasion! This will be the biggest event ever, in terms of size and scale. You’ve not only got writing, but Amaco’s also put together two fabulous sprites of both of them dressed up!

That’s all for RECODE 0.5! If you haven’t already, I encourage you to check out Rooster Teeth’s RWBY, at Roosterteeth.com/rwby.
