Joyful June

Hello everyone! It's the beginning of the month post, or, a sitrep sorta thing where I let you all know what's going on and how I'm feeling and how when what is the progress on things?
It's June! Or Joyful June. Why Joyful? Because this month is the month where A Tiny Furry In A Huge World v1.3 will finally be complete. The development period of this version of the game has been a little long and a little rocky for a whole host of reasons, so it'll be really nice to get it all done and in the can finally. So, yeah! Joyful!
Let's get into things, starting with...
Like I said, A Tiny Furry In A Huge World Plus v1.3 will be completed this month: as in, the final preview build will be posted. I have a fair amount of work ahead of me but I'm confident that I can get it done before the end of the month! Here's what I'll be adding:
A couple final scenes with Annabelle/Zoey/Coco in the gymnasium
A complete Aimee Mode, with predator-focused content and a bunch of other things
Bonus scenes galore (gymish scenes with Ms. Matthews, Charlotte, Oscar, & more)
Moving Sophie's and Gabriel's scenes to proper places
Complete in-game guide for the new content (all going well)
A couple more little surprises too! They would not be surprises if I said what they were tho, so...
All in all, when everything is said and done, this will make for the largest update that A Tiny Furry In A Huge World has ever had. I think this update adds more scenes than any version ever has. It certainly adds more new characters than any other update has (it's added like six) and in terms of overall 'areas' (as in rooms to explore/do things in) it adds far more than any update has too, especially when you account for the fact that Aimee Mode adds another version of the college to plod around in.
Overall it's kind of a giant massive update and when I started out on it I said that I wanted to make it a smaller one than v1.2 had been since that one was pretty chunky too. Didn't work out that way, though...
... but hey, that's sometimes just how it goes. It's been a rocky road and a lot of hard work, but this month it's all going to come together, and I'm really excited to see that happen.
As said above, I will be spending the vast majority of time this month on making sure that A Tiny Furry In A Huge World is good, finished, and all polished up, so the vast majority of my focus will be going into that.
Last month though I did manage to get a fair bit of work done on my outstanding commissions and I will need to get a couple of them finished this month so that I don't end up with too much of a backlog in July. For that reason, I will be posting at least one or two stories this month. They should be pretty fun ones: both of them are macro/micro stories that cover kinks that I haven't really covered before.
In July, or, next month when there's less game stuff left to finish on the table, I'll very much be getting back into the swing of these and most likely dedicating the vast majority of the month to what's left in my queue. For financial reasons I'll need to have a clear schedule come August, so everything kinda has to be done by then at the very least!
I will be returning to doing dev logs this month. June's will be called Secret Things and it's about all of the weird secret things that I've tucked away in my games over the years: some of which I am pretty sure have never been found. As well as going into that (pretty silly) topic I'll also be talking about the sorta direction that I want to take my games/CYOA things in going forward. It should make for a pretty interesting read if you're into that sorta thing!
Since I'm ramping back up on new game dev stuff with v1.3 being almost finished, I'll probably be getting back into dev loggin' and be doing one for the rest of the year.
Other things? Yes, there are other things. I will be doing a poll this month, but it won't be about a bonus scene. Since v1.3 is getting finished this month I won't be adding any more scenes to it, so the poll will be about something else instead! Specifically, it'll be related to what I'll be doing game-wise going forward after v1.3 is done. Related how? You'll see, you'll see...
That's it!
There's usually a mental health section but I can summarise that in a paragraph this month, so here we go:
Last month it took a little bit to get the wheels greased up and going - to get my 'mojo' back or whatever - but with the end clearly in sight now I am in full flight production mode and things are going very smoothly. The last couple of weeks of a big project like this is always the easiest for me mentally and physically. The road has been long, but the journey is almost done, and I have some pretty cool things to show for all the time spent. Or... something.
In other words, I'm doing great, and, more than anything - as I've said a bunch already - looking forward to what has been an enormous project finally being behind me.
Joyful June! Yay!
I'll see you in a few days with something. Until then!

Secret things? Well, now the completionist in me is yearning to find them or at least to have already found them when they get revealed. :D I thought I was being quite thorough when I played the games. I definitely hope there is nothing in the Hungry House I could have missed. (Although it would be nice to get more! :D) I spent a whole weekend playing it over and over to find everything and understand the references and connections.
