I miscalculated my percentages last update. I'm actually more like 40% complete with the next update. We may see an October release if I can kick my ass into gear. Then I'll work on Suzi's update for Over the Moon. I'll release OtM on Steam as soon as I have that update released for OtM.

I'll be on vacation from Aug 16 - Aug 20th. I'm flying out to visit my cousin for the first time. Instead of a progress report for the Monday after, I'll do a custom render for you guys.

I'm going to remove or alter the scene where Judy reveals she has social anxiety. It doesn't make sense. In this scene, we're going to see Judy bond more with Minerva.

I submitted a request to have my itch page deleted. itch has treated me like a criminal for years now. They believe it's artists like me that are causing them problems and that I'm doing it intentionally. So instead of reaching out and having a conversation with me, they banned me from ever making money through them again. The worst part is that the content that they took issue with I actually deleted from my game AN ENTIRE YEAR prior to getting blocked from taking payments. I'm tired of dealing with their bullshit.

I reached out to them a year ago to re-establish our business relationship, and this is the response I got.

Just to be clear, this is the minor they're talking about:

The woman with D-CUP BREASTS and BIRTHING HIPS is a minor apparently. The woman who I portray in my story with agency, maturity, and responsibility is the offensive content. I write sweet, endearing romances that are arguably some of the most vanilla adult content on the internet. How the hell is this happening to me!?

In other news, the censorship fiasco has neither reached a conclusion nor had any real updates. People are still putting pressure on Visa and MasterCard, but a resolution hasn't been reached. I have no idea what's going to happen next but I've got my fingers crossed.

Also, I'm writing the 2nd draft of Warrick Nash. It's still going to be a while until that book is finished due to the revision and polishing it up. It's just part of the process.

Thanks for all your support, everyone. Don't let censorship take away the things you love. Neither from MasterCard and Visa, nor cowards like itch. Find and enjoy whatever you want in fictional media. Stay hydrated!

Fuck itch, and I'm glad I've never given them a cent of money. If I find a game I like on there, cuz let's face it, it was the easiest for browsing ongoing content, I FIND THE CREATOR ANYWHERE ELSE. Patreon, SubStar, Steam, whatever. Even Ko-hi is better than itch after recent events. Anyways, I'll get off my soap box, but it's tough when dealing with morons that have the mentality of "the look of consent" when we're talking about FICTIONAL CONTENT. ~sigh~ I'm glad you're taking some time off Lock, hope you enjoy your trip! Excited to see what you've been cooking with TJG and the epilogue to OtM, and I'll snag the latter as soon as it's on steam.

Thank you, Mangetsu. I'll be in a better headspace when this new wave of censorship passes. The Judas Ghost needs a lot more content and polish. It's definitely a long term endeavor, but it'll be worth it. I appreciate you.

I think we all will be in a better headspace. Half my stress lately comes not from the egregious "coincidence" of a worldwide push for literal 1984, but from staring at the abyss: why are they pushing for censorship? What is coming that they don't want people communicating about? Dark times people, do what you need to protect yourself and yours.

Itch is ran by a bunch of morons at best to begin with. I like oppaiman better. You should try GOG since they run adult games and have told the censors to F' themselves. I played the original APAT and never thought of her as to young. If anything you would call any girl like her raised right. Strong, confident, but knows how to still be a lady. I love TJG, Judy is great, she just has to learn some limits and better socialization skills.

She is clearly NOT a minor by description and pretense... I know 30+ year old ladies who "Dress up" like kitties and play roles... That is not a simple "Childish" practice as some would have us believe... Let us not for get "Furries!" ALL ages and races play FURRY GAMES!!
