Easter 2025 Special

Hello everyone,

Apologies for being massively behind on my postings in April. I have a lot to catch up on.

However, it is not the fault of this overdue Easter Special, which I only spent a few days working on, so I hope you can enjoy this 5 page continuation of the Easter 2020 Special Comic found here.

I'm really happy with how these turned out & it was a healthy exercise for my brain to start & finish something within such a comparatively short period. Even though I wasn't able to squeeze all my ideas for this story into these pages. I hope to continue this non-canon comic more regularly than once every half decade... After all, there are a lot more girls to join this happy family, & we need to see them expand out of this basement before things get too crowded. :P

Perhaps next Easter.

I got the sudden motivation to work on this continuation over the Easter Weekend, made the 1st page & polled Special Forces supporters (between platforms) about continuing it - of which 60% voted for me to spend 2-3 days creating 3 additional pages.

It did take me roughly 4 days to actually pose & render what ended up being 4 additional pages, but due to a shocking amount of IRL distractions over the last week, I was unable to get much of anything done so editing the final pages was slow - which is why I was unable to get this, along with several other posts I'd hoped to get done, out before the month of April ended.

I am sorry for keeping supporters of all tiers waiting so long for updates on the game & other bonus content.

Regardless of where the delays come from, it's remains painfully clear that I need to adapt better & get going on these game releases or we won't get anywhere in 2025. So I'm changing how I handle bonus content, particularly comics in May & June.

I'm now going to relegate the first week of each month to focusing on bonus content, then the remaining days to uninterrupted game development.

Multi-tasking has always been something I've struggled with, & constantly jumping back & forth between the several side projects, such as the various comics, on any given day of the week, has proven more disruptive to my focus than I've previously given credit. I'm clearly more efficient as a "mono-tasker", so giving myself a designated block of time to work on non-game content should help me hit my release targets.

I will try this adjusted schedule out for May & June. But if I'm still not hitting my internal targets by the end of June, then from the start of July - I will be putting all non-game bonus content on hiatus until I have made sufficient progress with game releases.

As I stated at the start of 2025, I am determined to fix my output problems this year, and will make the necessary, difficult cuts to ensure I can deliver once again. As much as I enjoy working on the comics, and as much as some supporters prefer them to the game at times, obviously none of this is possible without the game, & Terminal Desires has been in a problematic state for far too long.

TL;DR:

• Now - May 8th = Bonus content.

• May 9th - May 31st = Game Dev.

• June 1st - June 7th = Bonus content.

• June 8th - June 30th = Game Dev.

• July 1st = Reassess progress & make necessary changes/cuts.

Thank you for your patience & support while I continue to struggle through finding a process that both works for me & delivers results. Sorry to tack a ramble onto this post. I hope, removed from that context, you are able to enjoy these new Easter comic pages as much as I enjoyed making them. Oh, & Happy Late Easter to all who celebrate.

~ Jim
