After correcting -mostly- the whole SPANISH of the game (Yeah, I can also make mistakes in its original Spanish language, basically were commas, lack of commas and accents, something not many people take attention, but is necessary if it has to be definitive and in future there can be voices).The thing is... There was 150.000 words been corected, which means there's a lot of work to be translated (copy-paste, no real translation, since everything was already translated).So while others help me (slowly) do that job, This month I started the spin-off REDEMPTION. They succeded do almost 30% of the whole, but that probably means this next month they will not do more than 60%.

(This is the basic reason why REDEMPTION will be original language -ENGLISH- it makes things much faster and easier (If my english skills doesn't suck... of course... xD).So here is my question... 

 Do I continue the -original- story (wich means is gonna be only in SPANISH (original language)). 

Do I dedicate my time on progress ENGLISH with them in order to have the game available in english for this August month.

Do I progress on illustrate the alternative ending where you escape with Neus.

Do I keep advancing the Redemption story without illustrations (I know most of you didn't read that, but once you play it, I would like to know your opinions about my writing skills ^^ ).

Illustrate the beggining of REDEMPTION (in "Good girl gone bad" style).

Or just let me decide wich is gonna be the best approach... which can change through time...

I just want to know your opinion, since you're the ones who make this possible.Thanks for your support!

Though I don't speak Spanish and I'd love to see more of the game in English, I will still love the game even if you don't focus on the translation rn.

Selfishly, the story progression in spanish is irrelevant to me, that's why I thought it was awsome when i've read that you planned to work on "redemption" directly in english from start. I voted for "priority PWAW English" for the following 2 reasons : 1) I think it'll help you greatly as a first step before writing directly Redemption en English 2) I want to read the end of PWAW story XD In fact the best case scenario would be for you to focus on the story (in whatever language you're at ease) and art direction, and have skilled translators and drawers (not sure if it's the correct english word) that do the translation and illustration for you under your direction... But I have no idea if it's realistic cost wise atm ^^' What I am 100% certain is that PWAW's story is what made me glued to my screen for hours and support you, not the illustrations ;) By that I don't mean that illustrations are bad (I quite like them tbh), just that it's mostly the story that is truely extraordinay, at least that's how I see it :)

Basically is if I focus on translation, the game will advance not too much... but obviously those who don't play in english will not be able to play the new parts, so is understandable. ^^

jonnymelabo

This is the purpose of the polls, being selfish in order to know the opinion. ^^ One of the reasons why I'm also interested in the english version, is because this way I can promote the free version... but I feel bad because doing that, takes me time to actually advance the story. Thanks for your opinion and I hope to know also your opinion once you can play the "Redemption" demo even if it still doesn't have images yet. ^^

I chose Author Knows Best (better name) because i know several creators who will push something because the fans asked for it and they just burned out. Sometimes that means that even when you come back the overall quality drops. Then you deal with criticism about that which drains you more. Other times it means you never come back and possibly have regrets about it. Basically i feel like leaving it up to you is best because you know yourself. Much like when someone is sick, you can see the outside and they may seem off. But internally they could be much worse. We can’t see you personally. All we get is your words on Patreon and other sources. And there is only so much you can glean from a slight change in word use and punctuation changes.

Really appreciated. In this case, all these options are as good for me, It's true though for exposure, the Free version of the game, helps a lot, and that's not possible to do if the english is complete. But anyway, all opinions are welcome, thanks for yours! ;)

Story in English is most relevant to me, but I voted for option 6.I think you should be free to make the choices you think are best. This potentially also avoids writer's/creator's block. Story is good so far, keep doing it your way.

Nicolas Sepulveda Arevalo

Me gustaría que continuaras con la animación y dibujado de las escenas pero voté por la 6 ya que quiero que te sientas cómodo de hacer lo que prefieras sin la presión de un voto.

jonnymelabo

Tengo ganas de terminar la historia, al menos de forma escrita, luego iría por los esbozos-o pintados básicos- y finalmente por el color y la animación. Pero no se puede negar que el juego en inglés llega a mucha más gente y entiendo que eso es también una prioridad. Gracias por el comentario y el apoyo! ;)

Arvitus

Yo como hispanohablante preferiría leer el final o ver la última escena en la casa. Pero estaríamos dejando atrás a nuestros camaradas que no hablan español.

jonnymelabo

Estoy seguro que es un detalle que te agradecerán ;)

I voted to continue the English translation because I can't speak Spanish. However, if you do decide to ditch the English translation that's fine but I started supporting this because it was a cool game I enjoyed playing I'm not going to support a game that I can't understand or play. I'd be happy if you could tell us your decision soon

jonnymelabo

It' clear the most voted option is the english one, so I definetly working on this, actually is more than 50% done so far and is still beginning on the month, so I'm also advancing the game by my part, and probably I will start illustrating it even. So far I'm advancing pretty well, but I wanted to knwo the opinion of the people, since the translation of the whole game obviously takes time, and wanted to know what patrons think about it. Thanks for your support and interest! ;)
