Still Working On It (Patreon)

Most folks who have followed comments in the last update thread (currently restricted to patrons) are aware that I'm still working on 0.3, and that's it's taken me a good bit longer than I originally thought it would. I just wanted to issue an update in a more public forum. 0.3 is very near completion. I won't give you an exact day, because I've learned that - at least at this point - I am very bad at estimating how long things will take me. Indeed, I don't think I'll be issuing "expect the game on day X!" updates any more. Instead, I think it makes more sense to fill you in on the things I'm working on, and the status of different components of the update. So, here's where I'm currently at with 0.3:

H-scenes: rendered, postworked & written

Maps: made, currently beautifying

Dungeon: made, boss mechanics completed, need to tune difficulty

Quests: 2 completed; might add another related to the town

Town: made, need to add random NPCs and a few interactions.

Story dialogue: About 75% written; I know what I want to say with the rest, but parts will be influenced by stuff in the completed town.

As I mentioned in a comment on the last post, I kinda screwed myself by placing a somewhat sizable town in this update that I didn't really intend to serve much beyond a basic story purpose. As I was filling in stuff, I realized that players would probably feel cheated if there was this big town with nothing to do.Anyway, I think my big lesson from this update is expectation management. It really will be done soon! Thank you for your patience and support!
