Dev log: Into the new year.

Hey everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying your holidays and Christmas, or whatever you might celebrate this time of year.  I have taken the past week off after I finished chapter two and boy did I need it. Working full time and putting in five or six hours per day working on this game really tuckered me out. It was worth it though, because I went from only one paid patron before the game was released to 136 as of writing this. This growth is way beyond my expectations. I remember saying to myself that I would be happy if I had ten paid patrons by the end of November. I never expected the game to be so well received and to get so much positive feedback. I am beyond thankful and so happy for all of you for supporting me, even if you aren't a paid member, that's perfectly fine. Just knowing you care enough about the game to be here and enjoy it is fantastic.

After new years I'll go back to full time production on chapter three. I have learned a lot the past few months, learning what I can and can't manage and what I need to do to make sure I don't get burnt out and lose focus. I see too many great visual novels get abandoned and I suspect many times this is because of the dev trying too hard to get updates out quickly. I admit I felt this a little bit the week before the release of chapter two. I'm making sure to take the appropriate amount of breaks, get lots of rest and optimize my time working on the game to get the most done each day without tiring myself out. 

Going forward, the updates will be released every two months. So chapter three will be released to Awesome-est patrons on February 15th, Awesome-er on the 22nd and Awesome on the 29th. There's a good chance I'll be done before that and if so then I'll move the releases up as needed. I'm striving to maintain the same amount of content for each update and to also increase the quality as well. I'll be creating polls soon to get a better understanding of what you guys like and don't like and how I can improve in various aspects of the game. I currently have twelve chapters loosely written and story boarded. I'm so excited to work on some of the scenes I have planned and especially for you all to see it.

Soon I'll be inviting all paid members to my discord. I'm still finalizing this as I want to do it right and since I never used discord before now, I want to make sure I do it right and to get the most out of it. I'm excited for this as this will be a way for me to post spicier content for the different tiers than what is allowed on Patreon. Hopefully you'll all join and I can sit back and watch some furious arguments about NTR unfold, haha.

That's all for now, and once again thank you all so much for helping make the past two months just amazing! I'm really excited for the future of this game throughout 2024.
