We all love this game and your hard work. I speak for myself, but don't feel bad about letting things get away from you. I for one am not in any hurry to see this project end. Personally I feel it is only half done, content wise. So much potential. And I would rather it reach it's full potential, then be cut short. Just my opinion. I love the story, I love the plethora of romantic choices and the non-linear story progression with each character. Chef's kiss. So again, don't rush things needlessly. Quality takes time.
I understand you poll the community for story advancement. Just don't be afraid to put your thumb on the scales sometimes. So the game doesn't accidentally bottleneck into a single characters content progression.
You have done very good work thus far. And I appreciate your taking the time to give the public community an update. Thank you.
