Taking a Much-Needed Break (Patreon)

Hey everyone.

Now that the latest version of Crimson Veil has been released to the public, I wanted to take a moment to make a separate, personal announcement.

I’ll be taking a two-week break from posting and from social media in general. The truth is, I’ve been feeling mentally burnt out for quite some time—especially outside of game development. As many of you know, I work on Crimson Veil entirely on my own. While I do have a few amazing testers and a community that offers ideas and feedback, the writing, coding, art, and management falls on me.

Even during vacations, I’ve struggled to truly step away. I haven’t given myself a real break in a long time, and lately, that’s been catching up with me. I’ve been feeling consistently low, and not just because of development—it’s been a tough few months personally, too.

So, for both my own well-being and the future of the game, I’ve decided to take a full two weeks off. No posts, no updates—just time to rest and reset. I’ll still be reachable through Discord if something urgent comes up, but otherwise, I’ll be offline.

When I return on May 4th, I plan to reopen commissions. I know many of you have been waiting for that, and I think shifting gears for a bit will help me recharge creatively. (I could also use the extra funds...) Once commissions are cleared, I’ll dive back into work on the next major update: Chapter 4-V of the Vampire Route. This is a story I’ve been eager to tell for years now, and I can’t wait to share it with you all when it’s ready.

Until then, thank you for your continued support, and I hope you’ll understand my need for this short break. I’ll see you all again on May 4th.
