Hey everyone, it's been a while since we had a weekly newsletter, sorry for the delay. hehe
A Sad Moment
Somehow, the heavy workload I've been carrying since 2019 finally led to a pretty severe burnout for me for the first time in all these years. There were moments when I felt like giving up on everything... Alongside all this accumulated fatigue, Twitter started performing poorly, and many subscribers canceled their subscriptions here on Patreon. It was very difficult, and I don't think I've felt this way since 2015... But thanks to your absolute support, and some of you coming to talk to me, and some bonus financial support I received, I'm able to attend online therapy twice a week, which is giving me great results in my recovery. I realized how unnecessary my urgency to grow on Twitter is and have I come up with several other less toxic plans for myself that I can pursue and achieve equal or even better results. I also understood now the value of a balanced overwork and knowing when to take a step back to recover from all the hard work.
I feel much more revitalized and better now, and I'm even more grateful for everything you all have been doing for me. And with all this enthusiasm, I'm ready to share the latest news about my art, career, and more!
Yumyverse
So, I was very excited about the idea of making a game for my OCs and many things related to them. All my original art was focused on them and so on. Although many of you love them, I think they need to become a shelved project for now. I'm not wanting to discard them; I just realized that for many of my plans to succeed, I have to focus on other things.
For example, my original art has much more brand value if it's just about my persona rather than various OCs unrelated to the brand. Also, various content produced by me always made me feel obligated to be about my OCs, games, comics, and so on. By setting them aside, the range of possibilities opens up for me, and I can be much more creative with my creations.
So for now the only thing left of the Yumyverse and the girls will be the cards that will still focus on them and also some occasional art that I'll do featuring Yumy and the girls, that means that I'll also be a part of the Yumyverse. ✨
With all that said, I need to talk about game development.
Game Development
I've mentioned several times on this Patreon that I would develop a game for the Yumyverse. With the changes I mentioned, a game for the Yumyverse will also be shelved, and another idea will be put into practice instead... I'm going to create an eroge game studio!
For those who don't know, eroge are adult NSFW content games. The games will not be released under my name, and it's also not a guarantee that I'll make them alone or that will only feature my games. So, yeah... it's a somewhat separate project from my "Yumykon" brand. But of course, you'll hear a lot about it, and I'll try to find ways to integrate the studio's things with my stuff. But for me, I've always been careful about my public image being NSFW-ish and NSFW content being exclusive to Patreon. So, it's something I need to analyze and think about further.
The content here on Patreon and much of my Twitter will continue as usual, focusing on me, fan art, and original art of my persona. But you'll hear more about this new project of mine.
That's it! Thank you for your attention, my dears. ~
With love, Yumykon.

I'll never unsubscribe. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME! You need to take time to rest. Therapy is always a wonderful thing and idea. I believe you will make wonderful games. Let's form a partnership together.
