Back in June.

Hello again everyone! I'm back after a short break!
My break actually ended a little while ago, but I decided not to add a new post immediately because I wanted to check if I can go back and continue working on the game like I used to.
As I said in my last post, there will be some changes. I’ll be working on the characters I want to work and I’m in the mood to do so.
The polls tier will remain, but It will affect different things than character selection for future updates.
Okay, I think that’s enough small talk - it’s time for some real news on the game!
Version 0.6
I decided to expand this update by adding the neighbors into it. Version 0.6 will contain Caroline, Celia, and the Neighbours content. After such a long wait between updates everyone would feel disappointed if there was a small amount of new content.
The planned release dates for this year are v0.6 in August / v0.7 in October / v0.8 in December. I hope that there will be no more delays in releases.
The 65% progress bar will be stay like that for a while to represent the real current progress since I am expanding the scope of this next update to include the neighbours.
Polls
The polls will be sent directly via private messages and the result will be posted a few days later for everyone to see. The polls here on Patreon are too restrictive so I prefer to use my old method for gathering data.
Hardware
I have some good news here. I have invested in an x11 graphics card 1080ti. It's not as fast as I wanted it to be for animations, but the change in rendering speed is very noticable. It should be good enough for this year.
As a reminder, those who pledged for the months when I was on break and one month before that
will receive this update for free. If you want, you can even cancel your pledge for August when the game will be released since you will receive it anyway via PM.
Now that I’ve finished writing this update I’m going back to render the next batch of scenes.
I’m working a little differently than before. Previously, I would work from morning until night, and it burned me out. I now have a planned schedule for everything and I promised myself that I’ll not work outside my planned hours. I'll be taking better care of my health from now on. I hope it will not affect the amount of renders per release. Perhaps if I work smart I may even increase it? We’ll see.
Thank you again for your continued support over the past four years. I really appreciate it!
