Progress Update - August 24th, 2022

Hey there! Halftilt here with another quick update.

I'll be talking about Lustiest Lair and Light-Space Love in this post.

Lustiest Lair

I'm planning to release the next update in a few weeks -- I'm aiming for September 16th or September 23rd as the latest. 

I'll be including a lot of the bug fixes that were mentioned in the previous posts from the last update from the Tentacle Take-Over update which added the new boss encounter and also had made some pretty big changes to how boss quests function.

I'll be fixing those boss quests that are showing up way too much for everyone and addressing those bug fixes.

I'm also adding in some things that were spoiled a long time ago that never got integrated into the game -- mostly in the form of new curios and some new items.

Light-Space Love

I'm also planning a second Alpha release for Light-Space Love, which I'm hoping to have released for supporters at the highest tier level by the 23rd of September or latest early October.

This release is mostly going to be focused on doing a lot of quality of life changes, bug fixes and integrating a few systems that didn't make it into the first Alpha (like skills, navigation and fixing the save function so you can re-visit the game without starting from scratch) -- and if the artwork for the defeat scene is finished before the release date, I'll include that as well.

It won't be a huge update in content, but I wanted to address these nagging issues sooner rather than later. Think of it as a hotfix with a re-orientation of what you can expect from Light-Space Love going forward.
Once the bugs are addressed and I'm satisfied with how the systems function, the third Alpha release will have a pretty significant amount of new content included.

Projects

I'd like to get a regular release schedule for both Lustiest Lair and Light-Space Love, the reception has been mostly positive for Light-Space Love and it's been super encouraging for me to try developing a bunch of new content for both projects.

The support has been great as well and I feel much more justified in giving a lot of my free time to these two projects.

On that note, I also don't want to get burned out -- I still have a day-job that's been helping to fund these projects along with the support I've been getting from all of you.
The good news is that it seems like soon enough I'll be able to use the support I've been getting without having to dip into my own day-job!

So thank you so so much for all of the support and I also want to welcome all of the new patrons that joined because they found out about Light-Space Love -- your support means so much and without it these projects wouldn't be possible!

Other than that, I've got a short trip planned for the end of September into October, so I may be taking a few weeks off from these projects before I dive back in.
