"He's so big..."

Afternoon folks,

Version 0.3.8 of Scarlet Law is ready to go. We continue on Rita's arc with 2 scenes that build the foundation for what's to come. They might not be the most interesting scenes that I've worked on but I want some build-up before the main event. There's only a minor bit of nudity in both of these scenes. It's mostly just lore.

As for the beach scene with Azula, this should be unlocked after the first time you have sex with her (after buying Makoto's contract). You'll learn a little bit more about the role of the Goddess from Azula here. Like usual, these scenes take a very long time to work on but I think the sex scenes here look really good. If you like feet (which a lot of people don't seem to), it'll also be a plus.

Speaking of the poll, I was originally planning a Viera foot scene sometime in the future but maybe I'll put that on hold for later. We'll see. I still have a lot of ideas for cool side scenes but there's only so much time and energy I have to put into them.

As for my mental state, I've been going through some things and just feel like my motivation to work on the project has dipped considerably from a year ago. I do feel like we haven't really grown as much as I would have hoped. The game makes about $2,000 a month, and if you do the math, that's just not enough to live on in a major city. It makes me wonder if I can continue doing this for a living or should I just make it a side gig.

If it does become a side gig, my biggest fear is that the game will be hurt considerably. We have a lot of big donors, $35, $50, and a $100 pledger that give me so much for barely anything extra, and I do appreciate the support a lot. I really want to try and do something in the future for folks in these tiers, but I just never have enough time. I feel like I'm a stuck in a loop because I'm always working on story/side scenes and I never have time to mess with the code for things like making the UI better or having interesting mini-games or even updating older code and testing it.

I'm not sure how to get out of this rut I'm in. If I don't work on story scenes, the update will feel like it doesn't have enough content for the month. And if I take a "break" and not upload for the month, then SL will probably take a huge financial hit. I need to make it my goal to stop stressing so much over SL. It shouldn't take over my life like how it's been for the last 2 years. As much as I want to work on the project, maybe it's about time I be a little more realistic about my future. My biggest concern is having my motivation for the project drop.

Anyway, that's my usual rant for the month. If it weren't for you guys, I do believe that the project would have ended after I returned to work from COVID those 2 years ago. The passion is still there, certainly, but I'd be lying if I said my faith in the project hasn't dipped in the last few months.

You all really do keep the game alive. Thank you all for your support.
