Grad School and Summer Plans (Patreon)

Hey all!
I'm happy to announce that my classes are going to be over in a little more than two weeks. That marks an increase in my drawing time, and my ability to work on the game. I'm going to take one week off to try to detox, then immediately get back on my goal to finish the visual novel in September.
I've been working on a pretty extensive minigame during this time, that I hope will come out pretty good. That's been taking up all the development time I've had in the last while, which is why I've not released an update in a while. I wanted to say thanks for sticking with me. I'd release versions to show off what I've done but games like this one don't really work unless all the pieces are present and balanced, so I've chosen to keep it under wraps.
I hope to offer lots of neat stuff this Summer!
In terms of long-term plans,
I'm going to be applying to grad school at the end of this year, hopefully a doctorate program. I'll be finishing some classes in Fall, then I graduate, and if I'm lucky I'll be admitted for Fall 2022. That means that from about January through September next year I'll be completely out of class. I'm excited about it and I hope to start another game; something concise and fun. It'll sorta cap off my time supporting myself off the fandom, and I think after that point if I'm in school again you should expect me to not do commissions frequently, or any big projects anymore. That's the reality of going for a Ph.D. I'm hoping to spend this next year building as much of a fund as I can so I can be successful in my degree without struggling financially. I want to thank all of you for making my dreams possible.
Cheers,
Zyyphelze
