Okay, I have a bit of a news. Originally I wanted to wait but honestly it's been weeks since my Patreon got deleted. The 9 paid members and the $28 revenue I have is virtually all that is left. It sucks big time because it is the moments of hope that kill your soul. My Patreon's revenue almost doubled in the six months prior to the deletion. So I practically had my ray of hope telling me that it could work out only to have reality slammed into my face.
I don't know when I could get back to the 1.6.3 version. I'm going to continue making games as a hobby. That's how it started, and that's how it ends up. The point is that I won't be able to finance the development of 1.6.3 for a long while. And when I could it will be years later, and I honestly don't want to drag this project so long. If years later I'm still around I could do The Zeta Sector - Chapter II. and make something exciting instead of reworking the same old. Therefore I officially roll back the version to 1.2.51.
Right now I have a lot of fatigue with the project. I don't want to continue right away. I have two titles for this year I want to get going with, the one is Desert Nightmare, that finally gets finished, the other is The Facility - The Game, which features Veronica's return to the establishment that was introduced in the shorts. But at the start of the next year I will allocate 3 months to the project, and I will finally finish it. I won't be as grand I imagined. Not even close. But I will add at least 2 ending missions, close up some game end paths, and add some interaction with Nel and Lauren. So it would feel like something that has a beginning, a middle and an end, instead of a half finished carcass.
I don't want any free releases until completion. Not with this or with the other projects. I have mental health problems that I'm seeing a therapist with. I've basically been on and off therapy since childhood. I honestly shouldn't have went into the meat grinder, but I did, and I got burned. So I think the only publish when complete approach should help me to keep a clear head while I keep working on the titles.
Thank you for your attention!
