February 24 Update
Added 2019-02-24 19:15:46 +0000 UTCThe good news: Lots of new people are playing TLS! According to the metrics, a ton of hours are being poured into the game on Steam, and a decent number of people seem to be finding the game for the first time. If that's you, hello! ^-^
The less good news: There are more questions and comments, I needed to deal with Valve to get the game classified as Early Access, and my time is otherwise getting eaten up more than normal.
The bad news: The game's number of reviews got frozen somehow, possibly due to the EA problem. D= I'll have to talk to Valve again next week.
The future news: The Once Ever After release is happening next weekend, probably for $10 backers first. I'm committing to that date - it's been put off for too long by other releases and I really want to show everyone. Please look forward to many more hours of RPG gameplay than a normal update!
Comments
1) It may have been eaten by the Patreon spam filter, which is not very helpful. 2) A shift is a type of woman's undergarment, though apparently this is a far less common word than I believed.

2019-03-04 03:20:42 +0000 UTCNot sure what happened to my earlier comment on another post, as it appears like it didn't show up or disappeared, but I wanted to say that in the 2nd scene with Sarai there are about 3 instances where it says "shift" when it's pretty apparent that it should be "shirt".

2019-03-02 15:07:02 +0000 UTCMany of these are the result of players reporting them, but yes, I do try to make improvements to previous sections from time to time. Even if my focus is on the newest content, the final goal is the complete game, after all.

2019-02-26 16:04:08 +0000 UTCSo, i am currently replaying the game on steam and i noticed a few consistency improvements here and there, like sprites for slimes in Devil's Pass are now orange to match their battle sprites, and i am not quite sure what other little touch ups were added, but it's kinda nice. Also Janine's speech at the end of Chapter 1 is probably one of my favourite things in the game.

2019-02-26 14:29:18 +0000 UTCYeah, Valve got back to me faster than expected. To my surprise, they said that they've had other reports of this, so it might not be the Early Access thing. It seems to strike randomly, but can be fixed by republishing the main page.

2019-02-26 00:58:44 +0000 UTCReview count issue seems to be fixed - game is now "Very Positive" on Steam.

2019-02-25 03:23:03 +0000 UTCIn regards of "less good news" - maybe its a good time to delegate? I am sure you'll be able to recruit half a dozen of trustees who know the game, responsible enough to represent you on those forums thus freeing up for time for more important tasks. I am sure that they will flag and bring to your attention anything important. As the community will grow, you'll have to do this eventually anyway, so why not start now?

2019-02-24 20:34:41 +0000 UTCGlad to hear of your success! Quick question, how are you planning to push updates to steam in the future? Same pace as public?

2019-02-24 19:49:25 +0000 UTCSorry, meant the Early Access problem. Thanks to everyone's support, I am hopefully immune to Electronic Arts problems, haha.
