Sorry for not posting the image here; Patreon was giving me a warning about not publicly posting anything with "partial nudity". I didn't want to put up a public drawing as a patron-only post since that would probably cause a lot of confusion, and I'd rather play it safe than risk getting banned by a robot w...

While I made some significant progress on the animation, a lot of my time this week went into the drawing. I'm a bit rusty and I forgot just how much work goes into these standalone drawings. It's fun, but man... the line art in p...

2021-01-14 14:27:44 +0000 UTC View PostWith this latest update taking far longer than I intended, I've been putting some thought into releasing regular game updates regardless of progress made. The more frequent the updates, the sooner you guys will get to experience new content, but the less refined the new content will be (at least at first).
Another thing to keep in mind is that, for now, saves cannot be carried over between different game versions.
With that said, I'd like your honest opinion here. There's no wrong...

I've been working all night and the update is so close to being in a releasable state -- maybe just a couple of hours more work. However, I'm completely out of steam and I'm 80% sure I'm about to sleep through my entire Friday, heh. (Hence why I'm writing t...
2021-01-08 12:20:37 +0000 UTC View Post2020 was quite the ride, but we made it through! Looking past all the glaringly bad things that happened, I would actually chalk this up to a pretty decent year for me. I've been incredibly fortunate to be unaffected by the pandemic so far (all family and friends are healthy and doing well), I've had an amazing start on Patreon thanks to the amazing support from you guys, my very first game is nearly complete, I've made some great friends in the size community, and a meteor didn't hit the pla...

Now then, time to bite the bullet:
So far, 3 visuals remain.
I didn't finish the update. m(_ _)m I'd give excuses, but really I should just be more careful with setting deadlines. HOWEVER! I am pretty darn close to finishing it! Just you wait. It's gonna be a normal day and then BOOM! Update! You'll never see it coming! >...

It's mostly just eating nowadays, but I'd like to keep the tradition alive and tell you guys how thankful I am to have such a friendly, supportive, and generous community.

I just wanted to let you guys know ahead of time that this week's progress report may be a bit emptier than usual. My area's been hit with an ice storm this week which has been knocking out power several times per day. It's made working on the game a bit tricky, as you can guess.
Other than that, all is well. I actually quite enjoy ice storms -- there's a sort of serene beauty about the ice covering everything, especially the ...
