[Announcement] The Next Release (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

Wanted to give you a quick heads-up about the next update.I’m going to be going against my original plan of releasing it at the end of April/start of May (the every 6-8 weeks release cadence plan), and will instead be extending the dev time to June, and include the part 3 into the release as well.

There are a few reasons for this, but the main one is that I’ll be unexpectedly starting the move into another house with next week—much sooner than I originally anticipated (bank came through much earlier than planned, previous owners already moved out. Some of you that have been here with me since the start would know that this is a conclusion of my home-searching arc 🥳).And because the move is going to eat into my schedule for probably about a week, I really don't want to then rush to complete the update just to hit that initial deadline.Previously I thought we'd get the keys end of April, when this next update was set to release, and we could then easily move without it affecting the development, but now it's right in the middle...

So yeah, Instead of rushing, I’ve decided to extend the development time and make the update longer, and it'll be effectively two updates of planned content - in June.Since the coming content includes some significant NTS progression and choices, this also gives me the chance to not cut them up between updates - which some of you have pointed out might ruin immersion.They are going to work much, much better as a single, cohesive release.

Also, quite a number of you have let me know that you actually prefer a little longer of a wait between updates if it means getting a meatier release with more content. Hearing this from the community solidified this decision for me.

Thank you all for your patience and for bearing with me while I handle this move.I'll keep you posted on my progress once we're settled!TL;DR:Got house, moving. Need a week or so off. Update will be longer, but coming in June :)

All the love,BCG 🍌
