Where I've Been!

Hey Farmers, Adventurers, and everything in between!

I just wanted to finally take a second to address why content has been so sparse lately, as well as offer a genuine thank you for all the support and patience throughout.

As most folks know, I got Covid a little while ago which sparked the start of the "low activity" era. I wasn't able to work on much in that time, so output was super slow.

Once I finally started feeling better, my family finally got approved for the apartment we've been wanting to move to for MONTHS... on the other side of the country.

For anyone who doesn't know, I've been living in a one-bedroom apartment with my family in a REALLY bad area in California for a while now. I've been wanting to help them move and get out of here, and after saving up all the money from commissions and saving the last year of Patreon money, I can finally help them get across country and into a better area on the east coast. And the best part is, it'll finally be in a big enough place that I'll have my own space. So... no more glancing over my shoulders to see if I can work on NSFW work for an hour before someone barges in lol

Obviously, that's a lot of stress off my shoulders. The last few weeks have been pretty quiet on content, and I really apologize for that. Most of that time has been spent packing everything into boxes and figuring out all the details of a cross-country roadtrip, since it's cheaper than flying apparently.

The only content I've been able to consistently put out is the STARTAIL stuff, like art and the writing. Hopefully folks have been enjoying that! It's been a really fun change of pace.

However, for those who are more interested in projects like Gorge Valley, I'm happy to say that the development hiatus will end once I arrive in the new place. I plan on jumping right back into development, so sneakpeeks for the next major update will come as soon as I've got stuff to show off, such as the new Relationships system with each cow. :)

Other than that, I genuinely just want to say thank you. To everyone who has been so patient, so understanding, and so generous. This massive change in my life literally wouldn't be possible without all of you guys.

The ones who have only just found my work, or the ones who have been here since the very beginning. I know it's sappy, but I literally don't have the proper words to express my gratitude for everything that you guys have made possible.

Be it art, stories, games, or any other projects, I just really hope to be able to make it worthwhile for you. I want to make stuff that you guys love and feel like you got some value out of to show thanks for the generosity you've shown.

You guys are incredible, and I couldn't ask for better. 🫶

Iv been enjoying star tail so much and I also hope you know that gorge valley scratches and itch no other game has come close to so please take whatever u need and get to it on your own time ! Always better than abandoning it like so many have to!

Dandy dandy!! I was finally able to sub again, but I haven't been able to reconnect to the discord. I'm worried it's cause I was connected in the past that it's not realizing that I'm trying to reconnect

Dandy, your art and style are fantastic. Taking the time to deal with RL will always come first. I hope things keep going smooth as butter

You can take your time sorting things out, I came here for Gorge Valley but I really like your art and other stuff even though I'm not a furry. And a bit of slow posting is not losing my support!

Glad to see things are going better for you. I look forward to future content!
