Little update news, and another thing I feel the need to tell you
Hi everyone ! Just a little update regarding the new update.
I recently realized most of you discovered my game with 1.3, and are not aware of my writing rhythm. My IRL job cycles between very time-consuming and very chill moments. Usually, January to April is a really crunchy time, and at the moment I barely have time to work on Seven Sins. I know my rhythm and, during those moments, I focus on my personal and work life more than the game. The last thing I want for SS is to become another one of those abandoned games, and keeping a healthy balance in my life is the best solution for that. That way, when the chill periods are here, I can dev SS 10 hours a day, for weeks, and enjoy it.
Since you're supporting me, you deserve to know I can't offer a regular update schedule. For example, I released 1.1 and 1.2 in the same month (200K words each), while 1.3 (120K words) took me 4 months.
Don't worry, the game is not on hold or anything. But the next update may take more time than what you think is worth your money, and I don't want any of you to feel scammed. So, if my pace doesn't match your expectations, I totally understand you might want to cancel your subscription. If you do, thank you for your support, from the bottom of my heart. And if you keep supporting me despite that, thank you even more for being comprehensive.
Other than that : two people are helping me at the moment, one for proof-read, and one for the beta testing. I hope it'll speed the process while making the game better. I think, from the last two years of experience I have with the game, that 1.4 will be ready between april and may.
Take care, and see you the sooner possible for the release of 1.4 ! Lianland

When a game is this good, for me anyways, I'm willing to wait. If possible though, do try to post a progress report or an I'm still alive and working post at least every month or so. When a page goes months on end with nothing posted, makes people wonder if the person is still around.
Yup, I 100% agree with that. I never let more than a month without news, but even that doesn't feel enough. I'm gonna start a routine of weekly news when I can work full time on SS, and at the very least once every two weeks when I can't. Thank you a lot for your support, I really appreciate it !
