Hello,

It's me.

The progress of the update feels okay. July's work pace was slow, I took it and the heatwave as an excuse to fix some personal stuff.

August happened to be much better. It's still not as good as June, but better than the average pace of two previous updates.

This time I'm especially eager to release the game because after the upcoming update, the future one will be more romance focused, which should be more popular among public and hopefully will increase revenue. I mean, that's how it works, right?

Now to the upcoming update. [SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE UPCOMING UPDATE -- DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT SOME MINOR SPOILERS]

So, the upcoming update will be more story focused.

Depends on how you'd prefer to structuralize, it could be an end of a chapter or important breaking point in the middle of a chapter.

I was thinking to end it with a cliffhanger, but since I've already divided it into two parts -- it would be kind of dickish. Especially considering all the time you have to wait.

But put down your sticks and rocks, guys. No cliffhanger, the story will reach its first major point.

Content-wise, it will be like the last 0.4.5. It would be focused around MC and Elsa while featuring another relevant character. And also you'll get to see one new important person, only see and only briefly but yet!

Some of you might be concerned about that too many characters can disrupt the story and make it feel less concentrated. I fully share your concerns here, I played games with so many characters that in the end it felt like some Glastonbury where you don't even bother to remember someone's name anymore.

So I'm aware of that risk and will do my best to balance it. It doesn't mean that I won't fuck up, but if I fuck it up, I will do it while being aware of it. Awareness is the key guys.

That's all. Thanks for your support. Hope to see you soon :)
