Open up the champagne, pop...! (Patreon)

It's been such an incredible couple of weeks. I'm so excited to catch up with you! The thrill of my new "city girl" status has not yet worn off, especially when there are so many interesting places to explore and handsome men to meet. 🤣

It has been quite the adjustment from college, but I think I'm doing just fine, don't you?  My roommates have been so helpful in helping me get settled. Oh, I think I hear one of them home now...gotta run!  

                                                                                             Talk soon! ~ xoxo

We are so happy to welcome you all to the Surprise & Delight community! Thank you so much for your early support of our "In Her Own Hands" game. 

This first, Patrons-only post is to say hello and give you a few updates. Our posts will regularly feature character insights, game updates, behind-the-scenes info, developer's notes, and more. As we approach our next full version release, we will also release a few polls for "Surprise Me" tier patrons and above, so stay tuned. And, yes, there will be a NSFW voting if you've opted to be a fan who's "Delighted," "Astonished," or "Pleasured"!  

A few other little tidbits to cover:

- We've been working on a few quick modifications based on early game feedback and will be launching that new version very soon. As it is more a bug fix than new release, it will be available to all at the same time. 

- For those who subscribe at a level that is rewarded with the Official Walkthrough, we wanted to confirm that it will be arriving before the end of the month. We just wanted to hear from game players and address some early issues to make sure the Walkthrough would be thorough and accurate to release.

- You'll notice that the posts here may have a different tones and writing styles. We promise, it's not that we have multiple personalities... it's that we have multiple game creators! As we mentioned in the About Us info, "IHOH" was conceived and created by a male and female team. We hope that will give our game better perspective in terms of character development while maintaining the integrity of the code and game-playing experience.

- Know that we have lots of plans. Our female protagonist's journey is just beginning!

- We'd love to hear from you. Please feel free to message us through Patreon messages.

OK, that's it for this update. We should be back with some Developer's Notes shortly, but wanted to again express our appreciation that you joined our community so early. We are so looking forward to getting to know you and continuing to enhance and expand the "In Her Own Hands" experience!

Best,

Surprise & Delight
