Patrons will not be billed for September, and the v0.10 update has been delayed.
🕑 Added 2021-08-27 21:15:48 +0000 UTCDue to ongoing personal and family issues and emergencies, I have barely been able to do any work on the game since mid-August. Unfortunately, this means the update is not complete, and won't be complete before the end of August. I do feel like I owe you all an explanation, though, so here it is: a member of my family has had a series of health crises over the last two months, and as soon as that situation stabilized, just a week or two ago, another member of my family was diagnosed with cancer, and the prognosis is grim.
Even if I were in the headspace to work, which I very much am not, I have had no time to work anyway. It's unfortunate this all had to happen on the game's anniversary, but it is what it is.
I expect to get back to work in September and I'll get the update out as soon as I can, but in the meantime, it's not fair to bill you all for work I really haven't done this month, so I've suspended billing in September. I expect normal billing to resume in October, but I will not resume billing until after the v0.10 update is released in any case.
I can't see the future, and things could get even worse. If they do, I need to be there for my family. If I have to suspend another billing cycle, I will, and I'll keep you all informed if that's the case.
I want to assure you that this project will continue, but I do understand if your confidence in it is shaken. I hope you can look to the past year of work to see that I am committed to finishing this game. If you do decide to withdraw your support, I recommend waiting until after v0.10 is released to make sure you get the patron content you are owed, since you won't be charged until after it is released.
I appreciate your understanding, and I apologize for the delay. Talk more soon.
