...And after checking the new support level after waking up it seems we have taken the 4500€ Goal! Thanks everyone! The poll is still ongoing so I will probably post the results in a future devlog posts.
Last 500€ to go to the full time goal!
2022-09-18 09:33:34 +0000 UTC View PostThanks to everyone's support we are already close to catching this goal! Usually, this poll would be limited to 10€+ patrons but I would like to give all patrons access to this post to give everyone a general impression of the current use of the budget and the new freelancers applying to snag up the next 100€/month investment. So as an expection, this poll will be enabled for everyone.
Okay then, let's dive into the matter. Currently the budget distribution is as follows:

Mostly just minor bug fixes. Most important one is probably one that could prevent you from using the Patentia Rune teleport due to an outdated check on an incorrect flag.

Public release of 0.22.2. Plus the usual minor batch of bug fixes.
Forgot to report about this on last week's devlog. I had Emubi create new icons for the compendium to replace the placeholders for the body parts. The body icon has 3 sensitivity stages and changes on the sensitivity levels 15 and 50.
Next up are the Hermann H-CGs.
2022-09-06 17:18:43 +0000 UTC View PostThank you everyone for raising your support! The recent increase of average pledges has finally brought us over this treshold. Less than 1k to go until the full time goal!
As a reminder, once we breach the 5k goal, since I will be financed, the re-investment rate into the project for pledges after that point will increase from the current 20% to 60%! (So 300€ game budget increase after every 500€ goal)
Anyways, with the 4k goal reached, we have another 100€ budge...
2022-09-05 21:30:52 +0000 UTC View PostI usually prefer to focus on developing features that advance the game content, rather than monetization, but it seems to be that time again where I need to think about on how to further increase our funds. I already mentioned the increase of cancellations that we are facing.
However, there is a second factor that has been keeping us stagnant for the past months. Despite the number of patrons being in an overall plus (despite the cancellations) due to still strong new sub numbers,...

Another 5 week update is coming up. The road for now is going to follow pretty much the same pattern as last month. First, we have the poll on the next H-CG illustrations.
The first winner is (as expected) Hermann. The Hermit beat out George, so we will be going for Hermit 2 after that one. I don't think there's really much more to report on this. Let's have a look at the upcoming 5 weeks next....

Probably the last menu that will get an overhaul. Android users rejoice for you will get a skip button in the menu that you can also use via touch control so you no longer need to rapid tap over already read text when starting a new game, ahaha.
The only major menus without overhaul are now Shop Menu and Text Input. I will probably redirect that money into another coder to support the current o...
2022-08-24 16:46:11 +0000 UTC View PostI think we very briefly reached this goal at the last day of last month before all the cancellations were subtracted, but I forgot to make a post. We are back 800 now, so here's a yay to reaching 800 Patrons! Thanks everyone!
Let's see if we can also stick above 700 after cancellations this time. :D

I had deployed some bugfixes for last week's prerelease yesterday but for some reason I have yet to figure out a major data corruption occurred in the file tracking the connection between maps and their IDs. Which can make you teleport to weird places. I have redeployed the prerelease where this corruption is fixed.

With the Hermann Sex scenes out, it's time for the September H-CG poll! I would like to focus on finishing the event sequences that already have some sort of illustration. Therefore the Magistrate won't be eligible for this poll and quite some future time. 2022-08-20 15:00:45 +0000 UTC View Post

Just another batch of bugfixes. Towards a bugfree utopia. On another note, I had the week off, so there will be quite a few more scenes in today's prerelease than I intially planned.
