Update Blog -Release Date (Patreon)

Dear Patrons,

How's life? I hope you're having a great year so far.

Here's the progress I've made so far:

• Linn scene 3 (this will be the 1st significant checkpoint in Sasha's arc) Done! 🍓
• Green inferno scene 1
• Meeting Kiki, Bobo, and Yoyo Scene 1
• Night fishing scene 2 (finished writing)
• Village chief scene 1 (This will open "the Wishlist" arc) (finished writing)

I must be honest that the "The Wishlist" comic making subconsciously took much out of me, so I had to breathe for a while. It was my plan to release Sasha's story -Culture shock V.0.2.0a (Tier 1) this month. However, it needs more time and I apologize. I wish I could release it faster but I fear the content will be too rushed which will likely end up underwhelming. On the other hand, I should make compensations, such as: upgrades!

Based on the questionnaire's feedback and analysis, I took my time thinking and contemplating of what I should be doing right in the present. Yes, I've finally made up my mind in how this game can have a solid light and fun gameplay. Instead of just moving Sasha to one spot to another that results in cutscenes with stats requirements, the game will be:

• added more slice of life activities
• having specific items for requirements
• applying even more proper daylight system based on the activities which gives a feeling of Sasha having limited energy
• letting Sasha be able to interact with more villagers (as the story progresses)
• making money have value (it was always the plan, only the story hasn't got there yet)
• opening all buildings/doors from West area, Market, and Pelangi school entrance
• having once a month update, instead of once every 2-3 months

Perhaps you might be thinking "Aren't those actually counter productive with what you're headed for?" The answer would be a polite "not really". Because, with a clearer, more fluid, and more fun gameplay, it'll open a firm path of direction.

Therefore, here are the release dates:

• Tier 3&4         : June 23rd 2023
• Tier 2              : June 26th 2023
• Tier 1              : June 29th 2023
• Public release : July 1st 2023

Once more, I apologize that it still needs approximately 30 days before releasing V.0.2.0. But I can assure you that the waiting will be worth while, as I will be very diligent in adding content and posting the progress on Patreon.

Thank you for being here with me. 🌺👭
