PAtch is ready.... (Patreon)

Hello guys, here's a monthly update...and some good/bad news...

In summary:

1.Patch is ready but I am not yet able to upload it until Monday. I'm currently at the hospital.

2.Again reminding you all to keep a link to the google drives I posted here so you could access the folders where I will upload the patch even if you unsubscribe.

3. A couple of hiccups with patreon earlier in the month should be fixed.

4. some sneak images, final this time.

1. I'm done with the patch. I need time to play through it once more. The new speech bubble system had to be manually placed on screen and I'm not done with those, so I must run through all dialogue and narration for the game and manually place them where they look nice on screen. This should not take long BUT I am not at home. I'm currently in the hospital accompanying my sister who had appendectomy earlier today. It went well. If you're wondering why I needed to be here, or if it sounds alien - I live in a 3rd world country and most hospitals here require you to have a companion with you when you're admitted. I was here yesterday. Another sibling will take my place on Monday, I won't be able to go home till then. 

That does not explain why I wasn't able to release the game earlier - I promised to release it two weeks ago. The reason for that is I had to re-render two scenes in the patch. While putting them in place and testing out the scene, it just wasn't jiving with the dialogue and the other scenes next to it. I re-did the entire thing and that took about a week of posing and rendering for each of the scenes. I also had to cut some stuff I previewed earlier, specifically the librarian character, and the two guys who wore cloaks. They will still appear in the game, but in the following patch not this. This patch is purely the main arc, and 1 side-story. Hanging out, and taking classes (both activities allow you to improve relationships) will not be until next patch. Exploration also is limited to the immediate arc, as mentioned before, you'll encounter a lot of WIP signs. Some parts, I just removed the choice altogether until the choice is implemented. In the areas where you go around a map, you'll not be able to click on some parts because they're still WIP. So yeah, its very lean, you're shoehorned into following the main arc....and that 1 side arc I mentioned that's sort of an investigation/puzzle.

Again - uploading the game on Monday next week for Gold, and a week after that, maybe a bit earlier(because I owe y'all this for a long time already) for Silver and Bronze.

2. Go to where you can search my posts and type in Gold for gold, and Bronze for Silver and bronze, find the google drive link to the google drive folders. Save those links. If you unsubscribe, you'll still see those links when I upload them on Monday(for gold, the next Monday after that for Silver/Bronze). I owe this one so those will be kept available until I've uploaded the stuff.

3. Earlier this month, there was a hiccup with Patreon payments. Patreon did something which caused banks to decline payments to patreon and a lot of patrons were unsubbed. Not sure if I'm explaning it correctly. This happened site-wide. It persisted after a few days, some people said they tried subbing again and got declined. Patreon did say they've now fixed this about a week into the issue. So if you're wondering about some shenanigans with patreon at the start of the month, that was what happened.

4. Sneak Peek Images...see above. These are final. I picked 16 images, one from each scene but not all scenes. There are a couple spicy ones I left out. I think I've uploaded some of them here already, I'm not sure. Enjoy. I'm also including a short video of the final moments in the patch(see attachment below). A bit of a tease. Don't worry it doesn't spoil anything.

Anyway, that's all. Thank you for all your time and material support guys. It's incredible. See you on Monday.
