Hey, folks! Sorry to get this up late, but the day job’s been crazy and I’ve been exhausted.

Just as a quick FYI: I dropped a new demo build for $15+ supporters, featuring the first 220 images of the Cutiedoll update (Ch15.) That contains three possible endings for the chapter, comprising what’s essentially Phase One of Cutiedoll’s content. Having collected some feedback from the players, I think it’s on the right track – it just needs another pass on the dialogue and narration.

With a good chunk of Ch15 done, I’m now refocusing on Ch14 to get the next version of it out ASAP. I wanted to have it put to bed already, but things just tend to take longer than I expect them to. I’d set this goal for last month, but this month will see the final versions of Ch14 and Ch15 out, if all goes well. Then it’s onto the next one.

Hey, folks! Hope you’re all doing well this week. First, let me just say I appreciate everyone who reached out in private or dropped a kind word in public, after I discussed how I’d been having kind of a rough time recently. I know it’s always scary when an AVN dev starts talking about burnout, but I’m feeling much better this week. Sometimes we just need to vent, I suppose.

In order to pull myself out of my funk, I pushed Ch14 away for a few days, and worked on some other stuff. I wrote a rough draft for a short story about Carolina, which $5+ supporters saw a bit of in the most recent Sneak Peek of the Week. People seemed to like what they read, and I’m excited to get that edited and released. I rendered and tightened up some dialogue/narration for Ch15. That’s shaping up pretty well. And I decided to draw something, which I haven’t done for a few months. There’s this ‘golden bikini’ art meme going around, that I wanted to participate in. I’ll be sharing that here in the next couple of weeks.

Hey folks, hope all’s well with you and yours this week! I don’t have a whole lot to talk about, as I’m still just working on the usual stuff: The beta for Ch14 to fix some bugs and add a few bells and whistles, and Ch15 with Cutiedoll. I’m still aiming to have the Ch14 public build and one build for Ch15 out this month.

If I can be super honest, I’ve been struggling this month. I’m feeling burnt out after Season 1’s soft-remake, and Chapter 14’s ever-expanding render and word count. Add in illness, computer problems, concerns over ever-encroaching platform censorship, a demanding day job, and a healthy dose of depression and neurosis, and it’s just been tough. For the past couple of weeks I find myself sitting down at my keyboard and staring at code, fiddling with this or that and never really getting anywhere. I feel like I’ve been telling myself for months now, “Just get this chapter done, and you can slow down a bit,” and it still feels just out of reach.
