Broken Promises - Chapter 5 Status Report #1
Hi, how are you doing? Did you have a good holiday season?
Everything was great on my end, I spent Christmas with family and New Year’s with friends. Lots of good moments, and a terrible hangover on the first day of 2026… but that’s part of it. A fair price to pay.
We’re currently working on Chapter 5, and so far everything is going really well. I’ve been writing a lot, and I believe this will be a much smoother development compared to the last chapter.
But here’s something personal I’d like to share: last Friday I had a kind of pain crisis and ended up in the hospital. It was awful, I was this close to asking someone to knock me out just so I wouldn’t feel anything anymore.

Tonight I’ll be going in for another exam, and if the issue the doctor suspects is confirmed, I’ll need to undergo surgery. That should take me completely offline for, at most, about two days. Until then, I’ll keep working as usual.
Hello everyone, I came back last week after some time with my family. I planned to come back earlier but there was a very bad snow storm. The day I came back I came home 5 hours late. However I’m back now, been working on Chapter 5 for a couple of weeks now, made some good progress especially this week.
So far quite happy with the current progress, I want to do more, but I don’t want to burn out, last week I coded in the first scene, I believe coding in after I’m finished with a scene, will make things a lot smoother before we launch and especially when huge branching scenes later down the line. I plan to code in some renders later by the end of the week. This current scene I’m working on I’ll finish it up hopefully this week if I keep up the momentum.
I also have animations to work on, the sooner I work on them, the better. I still have a wish to make a nice long cinematic, but it has to fit.
In other news, we plan to open up monthly wallpapers again, polls will open up and you finally vote on your favourite character 1 render a month.
Update terms of me, planned to have a meeting with a psychiatrist this week but it keeps getting delayed. I'm getting frustrated, but all I can do is just wait.
Anyways here is a preview for the next chapter, our beautiful Nessa
