There will be 20 in all, with separate backstories the player will learn about.  All will have their own specific requirements in terms of a purchase.

More UI work coming in and lots of backstory writing.  The Staff NPC drafts are almost complete; next will be the students.

Update on various

Project status as of end of year:

1.) Move from beta to final version of Mysteria Lane

2.) Polish up loose ends on CR 3 Dorm Life DLC mod

3.) Re-visit CR3 and embed the vids that 'got lost'

4.) Start new project (TBD)!

I've also posted some new stretch goals too.  All existing goals remain-- these are in addition to those unless otherwise noted.  I have taken some older ones down that were met earlier in 2015.

To Patron or not Patron-- that is the question!

Following the release of Mysteria Lane beta v1, I am delighted and perplexed.  Over a thousand downloads in 24 hours-- great!  And 1 additional Patron pledge-- wut?

So here it is: If you don't like what you see, no worries.  Sorry to have bothered you.  Off you go!

Selecta stuff isn't for everyone.  It isn't meant to be.  It is conceived, designed, produced and delivered for the Smart Set on purpose.  It is the part of the mental playground I've...

A Patron thank you for your support

Every pledge incites me, fuels me, thrills me and makes me work harder to produce more and better games games faster.  Your investment goes back into the games you want.  It has been a promising launch year and with your wind at my back, 2016 should be a ripper.  Thanks-- I toast you all as the year concludes and an exciting 2016 opens for all of us on this crazy ride.
