Thanks for all of the recent comments of support. Sorry I haven't been able to answer them all individually and sorry I've been quiet the last few days. I just needed time to think and decide what I'm going to do going forward.
Basically, I've been putting too much pressure on myself and have been struggling to deal with the problems that causes. I need to get my mind back in the right place otherwise it's only a matter of time before I burn myself out and walk away.
So, I've suspended Patreon billing for next month. I'm not taking a month off, this is just to take some pressure off of myself while I sort things out.
Finishing v0.9 is my priority and I will get that done as soon as possible.
Then I need to catch up on the various Patreon rewards that I have fallen behind on. I had also planned to make some Patreon posts to celebrate Hillside's first birthday, but they got forgotten while I was dealing with my health issue. I'll get those done too.
Finally, I need to spend probably two weeks working on the story and the game mechanics.
Once all of that is done then I will be able to start creating v0.10.
Thanks for your support,
DB

The quality of your work is superior and the care you put into it really shows so if you have to take a year to deal with personal issues I´d still say you are way ahead of expectations. Just take care of yourself and have a good time and we´ll be waiting for you when you´re ready.

Please stop beating yourself up over late releases. We know you have a real life with actual stuff going on. Ignore the idiots who think there are 20 people working on this and releases should be weekly. Your one of the few creators who actually update and care for their patreons. Take your time we are here for a good story and we wouldn't want you burning out and beating yourself up every release. I actually want to eventually see a end to this VN and not have it abandoned because it was too stressful because people put that pressure on the creator. Ignore them and keep releasing when you have done everything how you like. We all are here for you and the story you are telling. Thanks bud

DB, thanks for letting us know that you are ok! Hang in there - you are Our Bard for Hillside and we're looking forward to more tales of the girls and the MC. I am looking forward to not just v 0.9 but also the 1st Hillside anniversary posts! I'll also be there for the 2nd anniversary posts and beyond - which is a tribute to your skill in painting this particular story for us. Thanks again for the update!
