I'll try to be brief today, I'm not feeling great. This week has been... something else. I've decided to kick my alcohol addiction as it's been having quite the detrimental effect on my life. The withdrawal is unpleasant, but I've been going strong for nearly a week and I estimate my general well-being is going to have improved significantly in a few more days. Apart from that, I had to run around gathering stuff to establish a company so I can publish the game on Steam, eventually.
That being said, it's been slower than usual, but I've managed to finish Alice's scene and started making the images for the first hangout scene. Scene that is appropriately punchy for the end of the character's arc this chapter and nearly completed. I'm going to be pushing harder to catch up with the newly found vigor from not being hung over every day and finish tomorrow. After that, I'll start on the other hangout scene, which will mark the end of the "chill" phase of this release and we'll be getting into the mystery part.
All in all, I got slapped around by life for a bit, but I'm back up and better.
Hope you have a wonderful week!

Thanks a lot. Quitting smoking is probably going to be my next step. Just need to get through this one.

Hang in there, bud. I managed to quit smoking cigarettes after eight years, and it's been well over six months since I had my last one. Just take it one day at a time, and you'll get to where you want to be. Sending lots of love and support!

For me it was more too often than too much--I only had 2-3 beers, but it was daily. It hit me hard when I realized that was the part of my day I was most looking forward to. I just don't want to live like that. Luckily, I stopped at the right time.

I've seen lives destroyed by alcohol and gambling, not only of the person suffering from these addiction, but of the people around them as well. The fact that I can walk down the street and see huge banners advertising alcohol and casinos baffles me. That kind of shit should be illegal. Anyway, thanks for the kind words. I hope I can create something amazing and I'm glad you're all here with me for the ride.

...and you'll end up way farther than you would have dreamed.

I stopped drinking when the blackouts and waking up in very unpleasant situations became more frequent. Losing control is terrifying and was a hell of a motivator for me. I wish you all the best.

I've seen the end of alcohol addiction (my Mother), and it isn't pretty. So, congrats on choosing to do something about it and I hope it works out for you. I'm also looking forward to seeing more of the story play out. Thanks for providing this for us. It's been really good so far.
