Hello Everyone,

Happy new year to you all!

I'm glad for all your support so far. It has been so humbling and the best part of my entire life to make this game with you all.

It has been a little while since the last update, sorry about that.

I really wish I had better news to give you all. Especially after almost 3 years in development.

The game is still going, just a lot slower than I'd like. The game isn't making enough money to pay our wonderful artists consistently right now, so I've been busy doing some work on the side to try and keep things moving.

The game is not dead, nor will it be dying. Things are unfortunately just not progressing as fast as they could if the game was more popular. We simply do not have the funding that some other games have.

However, with the costs of development, especially when it comes to the art. I simply cannot afford it anymore. Hence why things have become a bit of a crawl since the last update.

All of the money I've been making has been getting re-invested into the game in the form of art commissions but at this point I've dipped into my pockets so far that it is not often that I can afford the cost of art commissions and put food on the table for my wife at the same time. The game isn't making enough money.

Honestly, I'm starting to wonder whether it is worth rounding off and polishing this part of the game as best as possible and releasing "part 2, part 3" as separate games that lets you import your saved data and continue. I know a lot of games release in episodes like that, especially in the adult space. I always hated that method of doing things, but being in the situation I'm in now, I think I understand why they might do it.

However, I'm worried such a thing could upset a lot of fans or existing buyers of the game. I don't want anyone to think this game is a cash grab. I pretty much made no profit on this game with all the costs involved.

If people were open to the idea of splitting the game into parts. (With the current part ending after the next big content update). We'd be able to take another stab at a kickstarter for "part 2" and raise a lot of funds for our artists that way, basically guaranteeing enough funds to complete part 2 in its entirety and at a much faster speed than things took so far due to having established systems already in place. But it is down to whether people would find that acceptable.

I thought it could be worth a poll at least. So here it is.

I don't want to do anything without the approval of the main community. I'll do what you guys vote for as a majority.

Please feel free to comment with your thoughts too. This post is open to everyone due to the nature of it.
