Devlog 49 (Dev Cycle going forward)

Sup y'all, it's Weird World here, how's it going?

Just thought I'd let everyone in on my current plans for the next few months are.

Right now, as you've probably noticed, an update takes around 2 months to churn out, which is a pretty good schedule for me. Generally I feel like I'm always fit to end each update on a good story note, without having to speed through a bunch of shit just to get there. Often I do miss the days when I could release an update monthly, as frequent updates grow the patreon much faster, but I feel like most people would  be disappointed if I released an update with only the amount of content I would release back in those early days, that includes myself as well. An update with only 40 CGs and only maybe 2000 lines just feels a bit lackluster. There may come a time where I return to that monthly schedule, if I figure out a way to better break things down, but for now, 2 months is the future.

Some of you also may notice that the numbers I stick on the end of each update, eg. v0.75, v0.88, etc, seems pretty arbitrary and that's mostly because it is. Originally I had intended to just slap the old 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, etc through the entire life of the game, but it turns out things just get longer and longer and there's just more and more shit I need done, so now I just add whatever number I feel like. Next update will be 0.92 and it will probably go on to 0.94, 0.96, 0.98, etc. Lot's of plans going forward, I think I've said it before, but the entire plot of superhuman has been mapped out for about a year now, lots of good shit i'm excited to get to. Also got 4 other games planned out too, and they're looking pretty awesome if I do say so myself, but it'll be a long while til I get to any of them. So yeah, if I can keep this game dev thing up and this patreon page continues going well, I think I'll be pretty much set for the future. I can't remember if I mentioned it earlier, but I'm pretty much working full time developing this game, which is a dream come true, so thanks all of you. 

As for when the next update is out? Soonish, it's just CGs left to do really, though that's always time consuming. There's been a couple things that have come up that might affect the release window, shouldn't be much of an issue though. I'll let you know when it's coming out next week.

This has been a question I have been curious to ask, in terms of the game how much of the story is done? cause yeah i noticed we were up to the 9. and was honestly kind of worried the game was nearing its end but knowing you have other games after at least is good.

Man, sometimes I wish I could live that life. Working on what you love at home rather than going in to do the 40 hour work week thing. But I know I don't have the personal motivation cut out for it. I'm glad to support you for continuing this great game. Art is one of the pure things left in this world that is still magical to me as I inch closer and closer to my 40s.
