Arriving Auckland

Published: July 7th 2020, 12:41:01 pm

Hello,

You won't believe it. I don't believe it. But it seems like everything's ready.

It's been long months of waiting. It was stupid from every perspective to delay the second update for so long. Of course, I didn't plan to do it, but things went out of control in the process. 

You had no reasons to trust me, I could have been a scammer or whatever. But you still stayed for all these months. The second version only made possible because of your support, thank you a lot for this.

Release and the Tiers

After all that time of waiting, it feels not right for me to leave any of you without access to the update, but neither I can ignore patron tiers and give the game instantly to everyone: it would be unfair to the patrons with the higher tier. 

I decided that the best way out of this situation would be to promote every patron to the next tier: so 5$ and above tiers patrons will gain access to the update immediately when it's ready. And 1$ tier patrons will gain access 5 days later. And 10$ patrons, I hope it's okay with you since July billing cycle was on hold and no money has been taken yet.

Release and the Date

The update will be published within the next 24 hours. Generally, the update is ready. I'm just running it over and over again making tweaks, switching the music. I'll upload the update as soon as I'll be tired tweaking it. 

Just for reference: let's say that ETA is 00:00 UTC.

After release, I'll be around for a couple of days, waiting for bug reports. Then I will become a bit unresponsive - I want to take a break and keep my mind off the game for some time.

Release and the Game

There's an event in the game telling a story of one of the characters. It takes some time. I needed it to avoid possible deus ex machina thing in the future updates and to try and tell a bit more about the character.

Thank you again for staying for all these months. This update made possible only because of your support.
