It's CLOSE! Happy Holidays!
Added 2022-12-20 10:40:21 +0000 UTCHey, just wanted to post a quick status update.
I'm quite close... it'll either be two days or three days released around the 30th of December. If it's two, the third day will be within the first few days of January. Those are the only two options this time. Something will get released in December.
There's a lot of moving parts - I don't mind sharing that sound, a new laptop mini game, and a ton of edits/minor scene changes are coming to the game after this update.
This is all in preparation for the Steam release.
There's more to say about this update/next few updates... it's actually quite exciting for me, but for now, I just wanted to update you guys with a release window, since I haven't done so in a while. It's so close!
Happy holidays!

Is it possible to have different safe-files in Android Renpy for the different pathts of decisions? I think, you have done all things right. A really good Game (!), fast development (other developers needed more time creating and rendering the videos. Are you working 24/7 a week on the gane?) and communication about delay releastimes. Maybe next time you will give us regular status updates to the next milestone(s) in % without a date. ;-) Maybe x % storry & writing, x % scene creating in DAZ, x % rendering, x % put together in Renpy, x % coding the laptop and the minigames, x % testing, ... One suggestion for the next but one minigames: On a smartphone small items are hard to find ... I wish you a merry christmas! (Sorry for my poor english)

2022-12-21 10:51:10 +0000 UTCThis happens to every dev as games go on. As long as you learn from the first time everything will be fine! It's only the ones that miss release windows time and time again that people care about. Love the game and can't wait for this release!

2022-12-20 16:27:07 +0000 UTCHey, happy holidays! No rush, I'm willing to wait until it's done. That being said, this is an opinion so take or leave it, but I wouldn't put a delivery date unless you are 100% sure it's gonna happen. First in August 25 it was at the end of September beggining of October. Then in October 14 it was before October 31. Then in November 11 100% something was gonna be realesed that month. Then November 23 there was a poll and won all 3 days in December. And Now it's maybe 3 maybe 2 days in December. Look, I get it. Game dev can be unpredictable and delays are really common. Some stuff can sneak up on you and extend time beyond what you thought. That's not a problem, that's understandable. But giving several realese dates and breaking them is something people will remember. Especially since a some people see Patreon as "I pay a montly service for which I need monthly uptades" So not trying to bust your balls here. Just an advice. Comunication is important and so is setting expectations. Good luck on the rest of the update and hope you have a wonderfull Holidays. Cheers.
