Restructuring delay

Hey everyone.

There are some changes in the development structure of the project.  Elvishious took another job and abruptly stopped working on the project.  Which is why the previous update took so many months to complete where  we could only talk to him about one hour every day before he left the  dev chat again. After this prolonged slowing down on his end, we all  thought it was best to find a new way where we can have a more reliable  solution for the coding side of things. 

The current condition of the game is somewhat buggy and its missing alot  of features we wanted to have which makes it impossible for us to  continue from his code without any knowledge on how to resolve the bugs,  so our current plan is to either hire someone new to join as a coder or  a dev team to create a finished VN game engine with the same mechanics  that we have, or switch to something else like Renpy. Since the  beginning of this month we talked to a few specific dev teams about  recreating the project template but their prices and time table were way  too long and unreasonably expensive. 

So right now we will look for publicly available devs who wants to join  in the project, replacing Elvishious' position with share-revenue or  simply as a paid job where they deliver the completed game engine  template. While we search for a new coding solution, we won't be able to  work on the implementation of the story or art until we have a working  game engine for us to build new things. Which is why we are pausing the  patreon and subscribestar payments for a while until we get it running  again. So you can remain subscribed where you won't be charged anything  for the period we pause the incomes and we will resume when we can  continue doing periodical updates.

The discord, dev chats and polls will all still be active where we will keep brainstorming about new ideas. The only part on hold right now is coding and thats until we find a replacement for a better game engine solution with hopefully even more features like save files working across new updates, better sound implementation and a smoother gameplay experience.
