May 2023 - Summer's Almost Here!
Hope you all enjoy the peek into the special renders that are released weekly on Patreon and SubscribeStar! This was a take on Erisa with long, black hair that I was... particularly taken with.
Sorry for the lack of an April update - things have been mostly uneventful as I've been transitioning to a new job and doing a good amount of travel and work to support that. I also went through a creative drought/mental block... I don't know what you want to call it. I think it was a decompression from my last job and I was having a hard time motivating myself to work on renders. As a result, I paused support for the month of May, but have continued with special renders and regular updates - whether I had anything positive to say about myself and my accomplishments or not.
This week, I had a nice opportunity to get some momentum back and am hoping to complete the next section of the update which features Abby and Grace by early June. As always, timelines are fluid, but I think I can hit that goal. It may ultimately come off as a simpler update, but I'm trying to get the game moving right now (and I think you'll still enjoy it if you choose to support and play it!). My next update after that will be on scenes with River and Sandy (which I think everyone will find very appealing) and after that we'll be on to writing for 0.8.0. I already have a lot of ideas on that end, so it'll be good to start getting them written and programmed.
With 0.8.0 I'm going to try to revisit my approach to rendering as well. I may try to do a little more art in-between the writing to keep fresh. We'll see how it pans out.
Anyway, that's about it. Just a little proof of life ahead of the next 0.7.0 mini-update. I know I tend to get a little quiet between things and with my personal slow down for a while, I got even more quiet. It's just my natural reaction to not promote myself or my game when I don't feel like I'm delivering. Now that I'm (hopefully) hopping back on the right track, I'll try to be a little less reclusive. Thanks for checking in! I hope to share more from the girls sometime soon!
