A Quick Update On My Situation (And IoM) Part 2: (Patreon)

Hello people! I wanted to share a part 2 of my current situation, and this time including IoM info too, which is the reason why people are here. I will explain my situation briefly, and after that, the IoM situation.

A) My situation: Like I said previously, I'm very lucky, my place has very little damage and I already have running water again, I'm having internet issues because the earthquake damaged seafloor internet cables, and my main internet provider is not working right now (I have no idea when these cables will be completely repaired, but I have news that the "repair boat/ship" is arriving tomorrow and next week they will start to repair them, they did not tell me the time it will take to fix them), I'm now using Starlink, I will use it until my main ISP is back again, because it's way faster than this one. My family members received a green light to go back to their buildings because the damage does not compromise the structure, and there is no risk of collapse.

B) IoM Situation: The equipment got damaged, but the only complete loss was a monitor. The PC to work on IoM is working fine, and the components are good; the same with the PC to do the AI stuff, so I can work normally.

I'm not going to lie, I'm having a hard time trying to get back to normal because my brain is still processing all that happened, it's hard to focus so I'm not being as productive as I would like, but I guess it's normal after something of this magnitude, I wish I had a switch installed to simply go back at IoM at 100% but I'm just a human and I don't have that switch, I guess that I need some time to get back to normality, seeing so much pain and suffering, the number of people who lost their lifes, families that were completely torn apart, etc it's overwhelming and hard to digest.

But for me, at this time, IoM becomes even more important, because working on IoM now is a way to take my mind off this terrible situation and shut myself and my brain off from it.

I’ve always been very clear and transparent with everyone here. This community is very important to me, and I respect it; that’s why I like to communicate and share what’s going on. In a situation like this earthquake, my thoughts are with my family and this wonderful IoM community. This week has been mentally exhausting, but here I am, reaching out to you all. 💗

While I’m getting back to 100% or until I’m finally able to release the next episode, I’d like it if anyone who wants to unsubscribe does so. Those of you who know me know that the stress I put on myself is greater than any external stress. Being asked when the next episode will be out is nothing compared to my internal thought that there are so many people waiting for the next installment that they’re supporting me with money they’ve earned through hard work and trust in me. This thought in my mind brings stress that I always carry with me and creates a lot of pressure. It’s like a chip implanted in my brain; it’s just the way I think, and this constant stress sometimes makes that pressure counterproductive because it causes me to freeze up and drains my energy. That’s why the simple act of writing this paragraph can help me relieve some of that stress so I can get back to 100% on IoM as soon as possible. (I don't know if I'm expressing myself well here because I'm trying to write in English my thoughts in Spanish)

That being said, tomorrow I plan to post something like I've never done before, you know, I always avoid spoilers... Well, in tomorrow's post, I plan to include two or three videos of the new animations, including spoilers for what's coming. It might sound a little silly of me, but this week I thought that if I hadn't been so lucky and had lost my life in the earthquake it would be like IoM simply dissapeared 😢 , no one would have been able to see what I've been working on for so long during these months and all the effort I've put into bringing complex and realistic animations to the game, from one day to the next, all the posts would have stopped, there would be total silence from me on Discord, I wouldn't be able to keep sending those welcome GIFs messages on Discord, I wouldn't have responded to or continued the direct conversations on Patreon, Subscribestar, Steam, etc. with the amazing people I have met, and the thought that that could have happened… Well, it made me feel sad... That is the main reason why tomorrow, I will break my rule of not posting spoilers; I want to share some of these animations with you.

I think I’ll upload them to Dropbox since Patreon and Subscribestar don’t have a spoiler system. I know there are people who prefer not to see any spoilers, and I think this is the best way to handle it. Even if you see the post, you won’t be able to see the animations directly; you’ll only be able to view them by clicking on the links.

Posts containing adult content (+18) cannot be published openly for everyone to see. This is a rule on platforms like Patreon, but I'm thinking about also opening an account on Xvideos in the future, so I have an option in case I want to share +18 content(videos) openly. (If I do it, I'll let you know what the official link is.)

My brain is working in slow motion and I've been writing this post for like 2 hours (I started at 08:45PM and right now is 11:15PM), so I'm going to try to rest so I can do some IoM tomorrow and also prepare the post with some amazing animations.

Thanks for all the love 💗, I already replied to all the messages here on Patreon, Subscribestar, and Discord, I think everyone got a reply from me, if I missed anyone, I'm sorry 🙏 I have not yet replied on Steam and other platforms or Social Media, I will do my best to do so the next week.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. 🙂
