A word
Added 2018-03-14 20:20:52 +0000 UTCHello there, guys.
Finally, the final version for 0.13 has been released. I have to thank again all the people that has been supportive and left nice messages. It's great to know I have your understanding.
I've noticed, however, some people complaining about lack of communication. These have been a couple of really weird weeks for me, but I've tried to let you know what was going on, letting you know in advance that GGGB would be delayed and updating you in it's progress, informing you guys when I resumed work. Other than that, I've been super busy catching up and I'll still be for what's left of the month.
So, I'll tell you what I have planned for v0.14. The preview will come really, really soon, and will have a normal scene with Jessica and something mor eintimate with Bernard for those that followed that route. After that, I intend to get back into my usual schedule. I have a ton of work to do, so it's likely this update might be a bit shorter. Dave will be the main focus of v0.14.
Other than that, just assure you that I will continue on GGGB no matter what, be it in hard times or happy times. I've worked really hard to build up a game that's worth the attention and support you guys give it, and I'm not willing to let that go to waste. You can count on that, even if sometimes I have trouble keeping my schedule. I take that pretty seriously.
Now, back to work on v0.14. Thanks for supporting me!
Kisses,
Eva

2018-03-16 13:26:15 +0000 UTCYou are one of the few developers here that delivers quality content with ton of branches for replay value, keep up the good work!

2018-03-15 11:54:59 +0000 UTCYou are one of the best creators on here. Keep up the good work and quality. It's ok if it takes a little longer when the quality is so good.

2018-03-15 10:39:31 +0000 UTCDon't be hard on yourself. You've produced a complex, absorbing game that people obviously feel passionate enough about to offer both praise and criticism. That alone deserves a pat on the back. I'm certainly looking forward to future updates - I'm wondering whether the pharmaceutical connection will lead to the boobjob path, or if it will be traditional surgical options.... You have done a great job so far with plot, art assets, and overall programming. Well done!

2018-03-15 09:33:37 +0000 UTCScrolling down to posts before the alpha, it seems like several didn't know about the alpha and beta posts and therefore didn't know that Eva was back in business.

2018-03-15 05:58:59 +0000 UTCThanks for all the great work! I hope things are better and continue to improve. You shouldn't feel pressured by the negative messages, everyone else understands that your health and sanity need to come first.

2018-03-15 00:36:14 +0000 UTCYep. Many low-tier patrons may have missed Alpha and Beta posts, since patreon won't show posts in your personal update list from authors you have subscribed to, if the post is tied to an higher pledge level than your own. To notice their existence, you have to check the author's list specifically.

2018-03-15 00:16:22 +0000 UTCYou have been doing a great work in and out of challenging circumstances, we trust and appreciate you as an author and a person with great skill and work ethic. Your recent behavior is certainly not showing lack of communication. Keep on with the good work, we have your back. I'm looking forward to 0.14 and beyond. Just hoping Ash, Dave, and Eva can find fulfillment together, and perhaps Ash can settle the boob job subplot soon, if not in a Dave-centric 0.14, then in 0.15 or so. Best wishes for your situation. Yay for more Jess and Bernard time.

2018-03-14 22:13:37 +0000 UTCHi Eva, treat yourself like an employee, you need to give yourself a holiday entitlement, make sure that you take regular breaks from your work. Don’t bind yourself to updates at such regular milestones, you can generally manage expectations by publishing a simple project plan with a very high level view of your monthly/quarterly objectives, rather than specific updates as long as you keep some sort of consistency. A lot of people love the work you are doing, don’t burn the candle out at either end, take time away from your work to keep inspired and if you need time away, just take it, I’ve paid far more money for AAA titles that I’ve enjoyed far less than GGGB.

2018-03-14 22:05:03 +0000 UTCReally glad to read that the development is once again moving and hopefully life is better as well for the creator. On the discussed content, I'm actually really looking forward to having more scenes with Jessica. I've thought her relationship with Ashley is pretty interesting, with especially Good Ashley/Jessica having a lot of neat elements in to it.

2018-03-14 21:50:43 +0000 UTCImo there is nothing wrong with your level of comunnication. We all have our ups and downs and I think you have explained it very well. We are human after all. The vast majority of us trust you and know that you always deliver in the end. Don't be too hard on yourself for a delayed release Hugs and best wishes to you and yours :-) P.S. The latest update was awesome, thank you.

2018-03-14 21:44:44 +0000 UTCKeep up the good work Eva, everybody hits a hard patch at some point in life. Allow just one comment: A simple „still here“ message to all would probably have helped to remove the uneasy feeling some had about the future of the game during the last days... 😉 (Not everybody was aware that the Alpha and Beta was posted) Anyway, best wishes for the future and I hope everything works out for you!

2018-03-14 21:42:22 +0000 UTCBuild a tiny cosy house, people will find it too small... Build a tower, people will complain about stairs... Build a castle, people will complain about household... One window ; not enough light... Three windows ; not enough privacy... Normal house ; come on, it's too casual... Good luck with whatever happened to you, keep up the good work and don't bother with the few ones who will never be happy...

2018-03-14 21:40:35 +0000 UTCI loved the v0.13 update. It was a lot of fun and I can tell you put a lot of work into it! Looking forward to v0.14!
