About the gap between Episodes....

Something I have to address... There's been quite a  gap between releases of each new episode. In the beginning, it was due to my personal issues, it was my fault. Now it's more of an 'is this even worth it' issue.. This game hardly makes 250 bucks a month. We can all agree that there's no way one can make a living with that. That's just not possible. As a result, I have to take other jobs that actually pay to make a living. Making a game like this, with this visual quality, it's A LOT OF HARD WORK AND TIME AND MONEY... Working other jobs on weekdays, I hardly get about 2-4 hours a day to work on this game.... Weekends, I spend anywhere between 10-12 hours... A week before release, it's nuts.. I work 16 - 18 hours... Now, if I were to do it all in a month... We're easily looking at 12 hr workdays, and only 250 bucks for all that work... Now, I don't have to tell you that it's worth anyone's time or effort... The effort and time needed is insane.... And I've spent waaayyyyy more money on graphics cards and assets than this game has made... It's a lose-lose situation so far. And then there are these f95 guys who steal the game, play it for free and then bitch and moan about the delays... Those guys are exactly the reason there's delays... They steal the game, affecting my revenue... and nullifying all my hard work, but act as if I owe them something... Now the Patrons, they're always supportive and understanding... And it's not fair to them that there are delays because I just can't afford to work on this full time.... Despite that, some patrons have always been understanding and supportive.... At least for them, I understand I have to churn out episodes faster. Which means sacrificing sleep and working 16-18 hours a day including other jobs. I'm willing to do that... at least, as a trial... I'm aiming for new episodes every 40-45 days... If that doesn't happen, existing Patrons, please delete your pledges... I'm willing to risk it...  If things don't turn out well despite that, I might have to scrap this game... As you can all see, then there's just no point in me to keep doing this, cause it's just not worth one's time to work that hard and have no results to show for it. So, let's see how it goes. Big thanks to all my Patrons... I really wish I could work on this full time and do right by you guys... Thank you so much.
