Hi guys,As mentioned in the last dev update, I have a couple of concerns/ideas floating around about this update. Considering this is a very large update with tons of new stuff (some stuff I want to do, but might not be able to do due to time constraints). My main concern is the subscriber retention. When I release a new chapter, I get a nice influx and boost, however that boost doesn't last very long. Which means after all the costs and money I put into the game, I end up with slightly more than what I got at my previous job. The issue is that is for one month only, the other months (typically 3 months), is far below what I earned before. I do know I have to make sacrifices and I'm okay with doing those as long as I can keep working on the game and my dream. I don't want to give up on this.So there's two options about Chapter 7. Release the full big update in January or release it in two parts and make sure those two parts are as good as they can be. (One part in December, the other in January/February). Obviously I'll try to squeeze in extra content such as an OogleFans scene in each update and make sure all the new systems are as good as they can be and work properly.Both have upsides and downsides. The main upside is that you'll get more SoA this year, the biggest downside is that if we split the chapter, it's not really meant to be split in two parts. (Meaning that the wait until the second part will be painful.)Even though the smartest choice (at least financially), would be to release in two parts. However, I would rather release it as a full update personally (even if that hurts me more). Now I'll do whatever you guys vote for. Please make this choice based on your OWN preferences and not vote what would be best for me.

It'd be ideal for me if it's all at once, but practically speaking if each release has sex scenes in it will subscribers come back for it more often? Ultimately you gotta have a development cycle that's putting food on the table

I agree with JS. I would very much prefer more content in the update. That being said, if you can get a couple months months of back to back funding, I know that goes a long way compared to the usual fluctuation between updates. Either way, do what's best for you my dude. You're killing it. 🤝

Answer is easy for me, as I did get the one year subscription when I started. So you have my support anyway, but happy to get a further glimpse of the next chapter now

I'm the kind of guy who always prefer more content. In most games I play, I don't even play all the updates, I usually wait for 2 or 3 updates. But sometimes I do it right away like with your game. So a I voted "more content", but honestly, I think 2 parts is better for you, thus probably for the game itself in the long run. As for your earnings, I think it will continue to grow gradually overall.

Tbh those that want bigger release can just wait for the 2nd one before playing. While those that want them more often will get to enjoy them in 2 parts.

I personally think you should start releasing every month or so, maybe not a big an update as you would like, but more divided chapters, like chapter 1 part 1 for each month. Saying that, I think with the holidays coming up, you might want to extend it but this approach is not viable in the long run

Is there nts in both update if you split it ? I voted split anyway for your money income you deserve it.

Abby, now that you'll gonna divide chapter 7 into 2 parts. Will there be adjustments to the storyboarding? Like adding scenes and making it more spicier, or you guys will just continue to follow what you've planned.
