Hi boys and girls!
Sorry for not posting anything sooner, but I wanted to wait until I had everything confirmed before telling you. I have been developing PQ as a hobby to spend my spare time on. But developing a game takes a lot of hours. For the player the updates may not seem very large, but each of them take several hundred hours to create. So this little hobby of mine has been more like a second job, which especially the last couple of years have been taking it's toll on me...
I have therefore decided to go semi-professional. Although this has been one of my Patreon goals for a while, some sort of flu came around last year and I was uncertain how that would affect my normal job. Therefore I kept working for as long as possible. But now it's time to move on. From the 1st of May I am reducing my dayjob by 20%. This should give me a bit more energy and time to spend on the game!

. Eventually I hope to reduce my dayjob even further, but I'm taking one step at a time. This is both a very exciting, and at the same time a bit scary prospect. But I love you guys for enabling me to take this step!

Anyway, on to the stuff that probably interests you more...the actual game development. I have spent the last weeks working on a huge temple scene, which will be part of "mass". I had to make 7 bloody variants of this scene. For a total of 170+ images and 28 animations. As a reference most updates are less than that (Jenny just beat it). But I hope to finally finish it tomorrow. At which point I can finally start focusing on the Imp. I'm looking forward to that

. I'll be asking you for some input regarding the Imp later this week, but I want to spend some more time on her before showing her off.
When it comes to an actual release date for the update, my goal is the end of May, but that very much depends how smoothly things go. So for now it's more of a goal I aspire to achieve, rather than anything well planned out.
That's about it for now guys. Stay safe!
