"Dear Patrons, after everything, there appears to be a glimmer of hope concerning the release of Episode 13 this month. As mentioned in a previous post, I have taken up a copy paste job. And so, I've finally been able to onboard the 2 new artists as I can finally pay them now.
The new artists are already re-working the second half of Episode 13. Since it's 2 other people working - and not me all by myself with all that I was going through,
I can say with 100% CERTAINTY that the episode WILL be released before the end of this month.
I don't think the second half particularly needed a lot of re-work. But considering the fact that the work I had done earlier was all done at a time when I was under extreme mental distress - and the ideas I had at that time weren't probably the best..... I've given the new artists a different direction to take for the second half
(the trip to Borhae with Mrs. Reigns) as I've been able to come up with much better ideas for the story compared to before - as I've been able to think clearly and much better now as I'm healing.
I felt that since there was such a huge delay already, I might as well make it well worth the wait by making it bigger and better than it was.
I sincerely thank you all with every ounce of my being for sticking with me despite everything. Although I can never thank you guys enough for your trust in me, I hope repay the trust you've put in me by releasing the biggest episode so far. And I'm glad to say that Episode 13 already has much more content than even Episode 10.
The new episode will be released before the end of this month. And I just want to point out that although it's 2 other people doing the work now..... Sinful Delicacies will always retain it's essence... The storylines, ideas, asset choices, art style and direction will all be mine. The 2 new artists will only be executing the work. (Which is mainly what I needed help with.) The essence of Sinful Delicacies will always be the same and hopefully only get better.
I have just swam past an ocean of turmoil dealing with mental health issues and financial struggles. Things are finally getting better now.. And I'm so glad that so many of you are still here with me - even though I didn't think so many of you would still be here. Thank you all a thousand fold everyone.
Here's to a new beginning for Sinful Delicacies. Going forward, I hope to do right by you guys with new releases every 37 days. I can finally guarantee that now with all certainty as we now have 2 artists on board who will be handling 90% of the work.
The next post will be the release everyone. And I will come back to you guys with the release before the end of this month.
And of course, if by any chance it is not happening this month, I will suspend billing like I did for the last 3 months. Even after the release of Episode 13, if a new episode is not released every 37 days, I will suspend billing for that month. That will be the case going forward.
Once again, Thank you all beyond words can express. The next post this month will be the release. And on this stretch of the journey, there will be new releases every 37 days. Thank you guys so much
