Status update (April 2nd) (Patreon)

The current status of v10 update (April 2nd):

I must admit that I'm still getting used to this 'update without setting a deadline' thing. According to the initial plan, the v10 update should have been completed a week ago with 800+ new pictures. However, without an actual due date, I just couldn't control myself and began to add more and more new content like crazy. Every time I reached 99% progress, I got this little devil in my head that kept saying 'Let's do one more picture,' 'Let's write another line,' so the work just couldn't end (until now), and now we got 1000+ new pictures for the update.

v10 will be the largest update for PHOENIXES. It features even more new events and images than v9. I believe this update has reached the upper limit of what we can create within a regular update cycle. I don't think I will ever attempt to create an update with a similar or larger amount of new content in the future, even just for the sake of my own health.

I've just finished all the renders now, and we'll spend a few more days proofreading the new text, debugging, and waiting for the Chinese translation, then the update will be ready to release.

Thank you all for your patience, and I'm truly sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.
