Hey again, sorry to let you all down right now once again.

I want to be open and vulnerable with everyone for a second. I am so lucky to be in a position where I have so many fans eagerly waiting for my work to drop any minute. Having such a passionate fan base is a genuine blessing and it comes with the heartache of feeling disappointed in my self when I let you guys down. I know you guys are patient and some are eager.

I have been working overtime on the game just trying to finish the last few things and it feels like it never ends, just looking at the same things over and over again, feeling overwhelmed like i'm pushing myself mentally and physically. And I feel like I have no reason to complain because I really am fortunate to have a game people want to play so badly.

Anyways, I'm just letting off some steam and trying to open up to you guys to let you know how I feel. I know it's considered burnout, but it comes with the job and I think what keeps me going most is your guys' love for the game as well as my outlook towards the future. I am being honest, I love working on the game, period. But I am always so excited towards the end of each update to work on the other paths after seeing the same thing almost daily for months.

So, I'm in the final  stretch and I will finish up here soon, and by soon I do mean preferably within the next week or so. I have to, simply because I owe it to everyone including myself and i'm literally right there at the finish line.

But I can't do another 10 hour day over and over because it feels like I'm so overwhelmed that I only accomplish 3 hours of work staring at my screen anxiously. If I break it down into smaller parts and spend some time with people around me I'll feel healthy again and more eager to get it done I feel.

Sorry for the wall of text. I just wanted to tell you all what I'm experiencing in the hopes of being transparent and open, because I was beginning to feel quite anxious about the whole thing.

Love you guys, and I'll keep you posted in the coming week, and yes I will release more teasers to keep everyone happy while you wait :)

Take care of yourself first. Burnout or breakdown is not what you want. We believe in you and can be patient for a while longer.

You are no good to anyone if you burnout. Take the time to rest and enjoy life. Work is important , yes. But a healthy, happy dev can only mean good things for the game. 👍

The process of sponsored games or projects being discontinued or dropped seems to be the same. I agree that you should avoid burnout and have as much work schedule as you think you need. But what is important is mutual trust. If you can't keep a schedule, be careful about talking about it. Please consider this seriously.

There is no need to apologize. Take your time and go at your pace. We're patient and we can wait. We're not going anywhere. We're here to support the game and to offer our support and encouragement to the Dev whenever it's needed. So, lean on us; we'll help you up!

Now, to be honest, do you think the game will be released this month?

The Typist

Yeah, i do believe so. I’m doing my best right now and feel confident

DBC

Do John and Claire have a chance to have a story with Paul and his wife?

The Typist

I have it planned that that will actually be the main story line

DBC

Do we have a chance to experience it on the next lust or share route after this love route? Your answer fills me with anticipation. You're a very talented developer. I love your game. I hope everything goes well with you.

The Typist

I wish I could answer this now, It will depend on just how much I write for that release. If it flows well enough then it will make it in, however it would likely not be some explicit content with Marie and Paul until that story has progressed enough. I would say that kind of content would be 2 releases away realistically

Fritz

know what???..You said you would give updates within a week and teasers at the beginning of the month..needless to say that not a peep came out of you
