The update progression
🕑 Added 2022-07-07 12:25:37 +0000 UTCGood day, everyone. How's it going?
It's been a long time since my last post here. Today, I will try to give you information about the update progression detail as much as possible.
[ Scene design ⇒ Rendering image ⇒ Dialogue writing ⇔ Coding ]
This is what my game development process looks like. And right now, I'm on Dialogue writing while also coding at the same time to shorten the process. To come clean with you, I wasn't quite faithful to my plan this time because I lost myself in the enjoyment of making and rendering the scene so much. I've spent a lot of time doing that and produced a lot of scenes with both usable and not (I made a shit-ton of cool things to use in the future too) Then I realized I had to write dialogue for them. It is the hardest and longest part of all the processes. Plus, the English conversation isn't quite my cup of coffee, so it takes even more time to develop. I'm trying to keep up with it and come up with just nice and simple conversations to make it faster. The result of doing that is characters' voices might all sound (Even more) the same. But trust me, in my mind, each of my characters has their talking voice and style of talking. I'm trying my best to make it different, and I hope you will find their voices or some that suit you. Right now, it's about 60% of the scenes make it into the game already. I'm so sorry it is too slow...
I, myself am one of those who doesn't like a small update. Because I don't want to download the game multiple times and too often with a low amount of content. That makes me sad. As you can see, in the past years, I make each update huge and fill with content inside. Apparently, it hurts me. There are so many times I want to make it smaller too. But I keep seeing myself back to Mr. Huge Update again and again and I start to feel tired of myself too. And as much as I don't like it, I'm going to say that I will try to pull a small and fast load on each update next time. If I can do it, I hope you will prepare your internet bandwidth ready!
Please understand that my personal life is there too. But as a professional, I will make my work worth every penny you support me. I don't like talking too much, but you know that I'm working daily to make this game become better. I can't thank you enough for loving my game and story and for you to be here with me until now. Please take care of yourself, and see you again soon.
Love,
F.

Thank you. I appreciate you and all the fans of my game who keep supporting me and my projects. I have put all into my work, I have, that's why I want to make it as good as I can. But there's an upside, there's also a downside. I must slow down this one in case to carry my personal life to pass this point in life first. Not because I'm getting the lesser number of patrons that makes me not active anymore. It will be fine. Just now my family needs me more. Thank you for your understanding.

With the small number of patrons, it's completely understandable that you can only devote a certain amount of time to the game. People have to make a living. But look, almost 100 people have "liked" the post, which is a lot compared to other devs (who have more patrons, but get much fewer likes) ... I think it shows that your fans love you for your work and will stick with you. I will surely stay subscribed.
