Dev Diary 60 (Patreon)

Hey all, TD here.

It's the end of the month, so let's fill you beautiful people in on our progress.

Currently, Ch4Up3 sits at 1,672 (+150) statics, 55 (+20) animations, and 46,542 (+4953) words.

I expect us to be putting the bow on Veronica's portion of the update either today or tomorrow, and then there are a few short, miscellaneous ends to wrap up to conclude the in-game day. Personally, I'm thrilled with the scene, and I think those of you who want to connect with the thorny woman on a more personal level will be too.

This isn't likely to be a surprise to many people, but we will likely have an August release. We had two goals for this update: 1) return to multi-day updates that move multiple plot threads along and 2) get our update-to-update time down.

We're three and a half months into this dev cycle, and I think pushing on to include Week 3 Wednesday would not only be detrimental to the lovely things we have planned, but prioritizing more frequent releases will help us stay relevant. I never thought I'd care about that last part, but getting feedback is one of the joys of our work and watching the project grow has been overall enriching.

So we'll (have to) be satisfied with achieving the second. 

Please expect a precise date once we wrap up those aforementioned loose ends. Until then, I hope everyone had a lovely weekend and thank you very much for your support.
