January Report
🕑 Added 2020-01-30 16:23:45 +0000 UTCI don't like developers that complain about personal problems therefore I would say only that January was pretty harsh. Apart from personal problems script for e3p2 was hard mostly because of motivational reasons.
When I decided to make story oriented adult VN I expected lower audience but not that much. And it's not about pledges (which is a great help, I appreciate every dollar) but rather about attention at all, including pirate sites. Of course, first question is "how do I fix it?" but with predominantly good reviews on last episode it's not easy to get the problem. So i put my bet on two points:
1. Bad writing. My editors are great guys and I appreciate their help but no editing can fix writing with deeper flaws. Too complicated, unnatural, implausible, hard to read. I don't know if I can fix that. Changing the way of thinking to achieve better writing skills sounds like great challenge for me.
2. Irregular updates with big delay. My mistake, of course, but can't be fixed at the moment. I didn't know what it will take to make a game like this when I started it.
You are welcome to share your thoughts about wrong things in game.
Anyway, those doubts about quality of my creation eat me from inside pretty well. Besides burnout is a thing and being game developer before this VN I know pretty well how it can affect development process. Therefore there is a chance that after this episode I will cut some secondary story lines to be able to finish the game before burning out.
I'm sorry for sharing that moment of weakness and thank you for supporting me. I appreciate that.

I told you already a few times in discord, but I absolutely love your game. Top 5 for me. It's a shame great things like this could suffer and lose on what they could have become, only because people can't understand what they are missing. I think if you keep at it and keep improving on the art side (most important thing for most players) it will work eventually.
>"1 of 4 routes is optional futa" >"mainly" yeah, okay

Be warned this game is mainly futa, and its the only fetish the dev cares about
