So..., the Update is finally out. It's been a chaotic and messy time, with burnout, internet problems, and personal/ family issues. As I've shared on my Discord channel:

'I fucked up a lot. I will not execute myself or anything; I am taking the blame. Yes, I was busy; my regular job became much more demanding, much private/family drama occurred, technical issues with the Update and internet, and my lack of time and energy. I was also too optimistic, and that is on me. I set dates and hopes and did not meet them. I tried, but something always went wrong, or new problems appeared, and sometimes, I just lacked energy or motivation. I have been struggling with this for a long time now, but I will go into more detail in the upcoming Update's changelog. For the Update itself, it will be out soon, within a day at most, AND I am thinking about making it Public instantly as some of you suggested. Still, I also feel like it would be a bit unfair for Patrons and people who paid, so I am also thinking about releasing it for Patrons only at first like usual, BUT the public release will be on the last day of April so that Patrons will get like around 3 days of early access and then it will become Public. But I am open to your suggestions. If any of you have any questions or something, feel free to write; I want to be open and transparent with everyone and to answer the question I was getting - NO, the game is NOT abandoned, and I do NOT plan to abandon it I had a very bad time for many reasons, and I was too stubborn and optimistic to go on hiatus. I plan to go back to regular monthly updates from now on, with a new plan and schedule that will be explained more in the upcoming Update's message.'

For my work, it is pretty self-explanatory, and this is something many people forget, but I am just one guy who is creating this game as a hobby. I still have family, a regular job, and life stuff to take care of; usually, on weekdays, I have like around 2 hours of free time to work on the game, and only if I am not tired after my regular job and don't have any other plans, I was always transparent about it and never hid it. My regular job was just really demanding for a long time due to some busy times, but it has calmed down for now... With my internet and other technical issues - My internet is very slow, so I tried to change it, and the new one worked quite well... a bit faster and more stable - for the first few weeks, then it became worse. There were only excuses and so on, In the end, it turned out to be pretty much a scam, and I had to go back to the old one... uploading the game really takes a lot of time... and right now, it is I think the 4th or 5th time it was uploaded with the help of my friend... ( I uploaded it so many times mostly due to discovered bugs or errors...)

I don't really want to get into private/family issues, as this is just a very personal and private matter, but I can share that I got fed up with it and cut myself off from the family drama!

As for my motivation, as some of you may know, there was a huge technical issue with the game in February. After my burnout, I really got new energy into creating and working on the game, and I did a lot of renders... but for some reason, still unknown, when I was working on the game... over half of them just disappeared, got deleted/removed/corrupted...and it was a huge hit, not only to the game but also to me, and mostly my motivation... like literally I lost hours, weeks of work and re-making all of those renders was really... tiring... and just felt so bad... I love making new renders, but... re-making them? Doing the same thing again because it got deleted? Yeah... it sucks... and It was hard for me to motivate myself to work on it sometimes... and it was the time that I though that maybe this project and game just outgrow me? It became too much for me to handle alone... but a good talk with my bro helped me a lot.

I don't really know what else to write... For now, I plan to go back to regular monthly updates like in the past, with a new plan - I plan to release three updates, so 3 months with updates and then one month break, and repeat, starting from May, so that it will be:

May: Update

June: Update

July: Update

August: Break (No update)

September: Update

October: Update

November: Update

December: Break (Probably a minor update, mostly about the Christmas special :D)

So, the next Update will be released around May 30

If you have any more questions, please write them on the Discord Server. It is the best way to contact me!

Cheers, everyone ^^ It is good to be finally back! May the Lust be with you all!
