End of the Year report - 2022 (Patreon)

Greetings everyone!

My, what a year it's been for sure.  Got some ups and downs for sure, things have been super busy and it feels like things went by way too fast.  Most recently we had the joy of vending at MFF, one of the biggest cons out there, and with that we launched the selling of my hobby projects of candles and resin called The Crafty Sabrewolf.  We also have a collaborative effort with Ravensflock and have created the start of our first point and click/visual novel hybrid adventure as well as released a ton of books.  Those are the most recent of things, on a more personal note I'm finally getting a new fursuit so that is fun.

So what's in store for 2023?  We're slowing down book publishing to once a month since we caught up a bit, and Raven and I are going to be focusing on the creation of Escape From the Factory.  We would like to release the whole game within a year or two, so there's a lot of rubber and transformation in store for us.  We may also have some progress in the parasite one, but with this new innovation in point and clicking I may have to rethink what I'm doing with Fall of the Behemoth.  The same for any comic projects; there is currently significant debt on Smilodon Studio that has to be addressed this year.

For conventions the plan to sell is FurSquared and IFC, and we're hoping to get back into MFF as well as sell at Anthrocon.  

I also want to take the last moments of this year to thank everyone here for the huge amount of support that's been given here.  It's thanks to this patreon and the generous people here that allow me to grow Smilodon Studio and continue to create the projects you see here.  Here's hoping that next year we can grow this space even more and fund even bigger projects as well as more books and comics.

Lastly, resolutions!  This year I'm only making two, one physical and one mental.  My physical one is to lose at least 60 pounds, finally getting in shape and eating right and such.  The mental one is I would like to start developing art skills, not to monetize but just as a hobby and such.

Have a great new year everyone, hope to see you in 2023!
