Happy Big Meal Thursday!

To all my friends in the US, Happy Thanksgiving!


To everyone else, how about... Thiccsgiving?


I wanted to make a post for Grace to show off what she'd look like with a little more junk in her trunk. So I tried out several different outfits, and then I thought, why not show them all?

I do this a lot, but I often only post a couple of my favorite outfits. What do you think, should I stick to the highlights?

For news, I've been working on both games side by side, which is usually a terrible idea because it means little progress is made, but I've been trying to revamp the notifications, phone systems, and walkthrough, so I figured I might as well do both at once.


What about the Halloween update, you ask? Yeah, I really should have finished that at the beginning of the month, instead of saying, 'welp, it's already November, so let me play with this other stuff real quick', which, again is always a bad idea.

And perhaps that's been part of my issue with deadlines. Once I've passed one, instead of rushing to finish it, too often I let myself start on to the next project and a quick break turns into a long one.

The other issue is it creates a bottleneck for everything else. When I know one thing is expected, I'm hesitant to release the next thing. Instead, I should be doubling down on the first task until it's finished... easy fix? I sure hope so.


In other news, I bought a new desktop for Black Friday, so I'm excited to have a little more processing power, especially as I start dabbling with other graphics programs like Daz 3D and Blender in the future.


Happy holidays!

It does feel like progress on both games has stagnated significantly to give us "special" content. Just remember most of your supporters didn't commit there support to get extra stories and artwork but to help progress the games and get early access to said games. Extras are nice but not why we provide financial support.

Deadlines are really just ways for us to remind ourselves to get something done. We understand shifting schedules. Just focus on one thing at a time and see where you end up!

Just stop setting deadlines. Halloween speacial? shelf it. Start the christmas special now or really who cares? We are all adults I just want to see the story progress

At this point I feel like the issue with deadlines is that you arnt setting realistic ones for yourself. I think people would be less frustrated knowing the update is going to take 6 months and then getting it released then. Instead of saying it will be released in 3 months and then not giving us anything for another 3 months. Things happen and schedules change but even if when you get to a deadline and the chapter isn't done releasing what you do have can go a long way to appeasing our expectations. A lot of game devs don't release full chapters at a time and give sometimes as little as single scene updates so that as progress is made they share it.

In this case at least, black doesn't appear to be nearly as slimming as skintone.
