Season's Greetings from Starlight Tactiles

Good day all, and to those that celebrate, Merry Christmas.

It has been one rollercoaster of a year, and I'm certainly ending it very different from how I imagined.

I wanted to give you all an update as to how things are going.

Firstly, on a personal note, my mother's mass has reacted positively to the second round of chemo, after the first type (who knew chemo had types) didn't show any change. She will go through one more round and then rest to regain her white blood cell count before her surgery, but things are looking well in that aspect.

In terms of In Finite Space I have finally managed to complete the script for the next build. Writing has not come easy for this chapter, and I was hoping to bash out the last one and this one with relative ease given the content and lack of extensive assets, but here we are. I can only apologise its taken so long, but I am hoping to be back on track now.

Asset generation for future builds is still underway, and some of the completed ones are truly amazing and I cannot wait to finally be able to show them off next year and the next.

Our new partners over at Cleaved as well have had a flurry of activity. I will leave Cal to give you all an update on what's going on there, but it's exciting seeing them work towards the next steps in the story.

I also have been in communication trying to start some products for merch. It's unfortunately a lengthy process, given the negotiations on pricing and logistics. Those of you that may remember our early attempts with the pins we made for IFS may recall there were a few issues and hidden fees I did not foresee that happened when shipping to Europe and USA. The pins were always a test for me for the pricing for stuff and I have used that feedback and knowledge to try and build into production and distribution so that it won't have as much of an impact to delivery and pricing. However that does mean things just inevitably take a longer time to get sorted.

As we do look to 2026 I am reminded again of how amazing the community we have, the great people who read and support us and I am warmed to my core with love for you all.

As a treat please enjoy this Commander Fen piece that just got completed, just in time to make you all enjoy what gifts he has prepared.

Additionally, those of you that have not, do not forget that our Cameo Giveaway ends on the 1st January, so if you have not liked, followed and reposted the tweets/bluesky, then please do and come to the discord server too for additional entries.

Speak to you all soon with the announcement of the winners, and the roadmap for 2026.
