Hey, this is a little thing to give anyone doing development work with Mutant Standard emoji an advance warning for 0.3.1, which is currently expected to be released late October.
This alert only applies to codepoint packages.

(UPDATE 2018.10.21 – My account has now been closed by Liberapay support.)
Hey, just to let you know, I’m going to close the Liberapay account… as soon as Liberapay lets me.
Endless, endless testing.
0.3.0 was partly a new emoji update, but also just trying to tie up more loose ends for the future. I wanted to be super-satisfied with various core elements of the aesthetic and design philosophy so I could move on with bigger changes and more new emoji without feeling like I have things left behind or unresolved design issues.

0.3.0 represents a significant step forward in getting your gay, furry and weird emoji anywhere. It also includes a much bigger (and more permanent) range of colour modifiers and many design improvements designed to improve the readability of many existing emoji.
Here are all the sketches from 0.2.4, and a very long commentary. I am now making notes as I’m making the emoji, so giving you commentary is more efficient more detailed, and less scary to post at the end of a version because I have all the content already available.
Remember, sketch file names are just the date they were begun, so there will be disjointedness from file to file. Enjoy!
Here’s an overview of the current accomplishments of the project, and where I’d like this project to go for the next year and beyond.
