My reluctance to make a server is mostly apprehension over its moderation. I already struggle to keep a real eye on the Patreon and this forum.
Out of curiosity, what is the appeal of a game specific discord? Is it an easier way to communicate with each other? Or with me? Or what? Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend it. Discord in itself is essentially spyware. When you're running a server, you run the chances of having a dead lurker server because most people are active in other servers. This doesn't reflect well on your game. You also have to face how stupid most porn and internet addicts are when they start posting beyond game-related stuff. And lastly, some people use discord as a toilet to shit on devs. You can easily ban them, but you still have to spend time on it.
You have some upsides as well: you can use "roles" as a patreon reward, you can have other people offer gameplay or technical support, ...

Gotya. Yea, I'll keep it in the back of my mind. Maybe in the future. Thanks for the feedback! It's always helpful.

We're getting closer!
Just wrapped up day 2 of the next chapter. What's left you ask? Day 3. Which shoulddd be relatively short, and then our chapter climax! Wahoo!
I love it when a plan comes together.
As always thank you for all the support, interest, and patience. It is greatly appreciated!

Well, game is pretty much great, but overall progress is way to slow. Ancho you kinda worked a whole month on one day of a chapter? On May 20th, your post:" Work continues on Ch 8 of Fantasy Valley! I'm progressing steadily through the second day of the chapter " and than June 20th: " Just wrapped up day 2 of the next chapter.", I love your work, animation and story but you lack development a lot. I'm not trying to shit on you, but as a programmer I also do have a problems, that take time to fix themselves, but to overcome it you have to adjust- look for motivation somewhere else or even pay someone to do the part of the work so you can always deliver your A-game.
At this speed your game will end in couple of years and only hard core fans will stay with you that long. I wish you really all the best!

How can you not distinguish between a hobby project on a $150/month budget and a fulltime job or a 3D poser game and a fully hand-drawn game? "I'm not trying to shit on you, BUT" isn't going to save you there.
I appreciate your feedback. Waiting for updates sucks.
However, if any of you want to channel that anxiousness into action. Go contribute to the Patreon page! Every little amount helps! If you've enjoyed Fantasy Valley, and want to keep it alive, go throw a dollar my way.

Quality takes time, each update has been an improvement on the last in terms of art, writing, and animation. The scene with David, Joey and Morgan in ch 7 was amazing; was one of the best scenes i have seen in a VN this year. Ch 8 looks like its shaping up to be quite entertaining as well so all i can say is our patience will be rewarded.
Thanks a lot! Really glad you're enjoying it, and really glad the progress is apparent!
