About the new and the old.
Hello everyone!
About reviews on 0.6
First of all, I really want to thank you all for your support. So many positive reviews at a time I have never heard! It feels like a lot of people just realized that the game really has a plot, and that all these scenes and conversations are really leading to something. XD Seriously, thank you! Now I'm in a terrible state – I haven't slept for a week and my back hurts terribly, but I've been walking around with a smile on my face for a few days!
Special thanks to those who support me financially. I still decided to buy a more powerful video card when I save up for it. And thanks to this support, it no longer looks impossible! We need to try to keep the support level at the same level for a couple of months, and then we will definitely succeed!
Then why am I making a new game?
See what the problem is. Initially, I planned to make a new game to earn money for creating TIF. I didn't want to worry too much about the quality, just make quick big updates. But it looks like I can't do like that... I sit back and think about every frame, every word, every character now has its own storyline. I still render animations at night, and because of this, I don't get enough sleep all the time. I mean, I'm doing the same thing, just for a different game. And I had this question: "Why?» I can just continue making TIF, especially now I have such support! What do you think? Was I too hasty with the new game? Maybe we should continue TIF, and instead of a new game, start making more content for patrons? The new game isn't going anywhere, is it? Please write your opinion. This is VERY, VERY important to me! I'm afraid of making a mistake.
I will do animations for the new game for now. If we come to the conclusion that it is better to postpone the new game, I will start working on the update for TIF at the beginning of the month, while working on the editing of the first two chapters.
P.S. I added a few frames for the new game so that you can roughly understand what quality the game will be.

О новом и старом.
Всем привет!
О отзывах на 0.6
Во-первых, я очень хочу поблагодарить вас всех за поддержку. Столько положительных отзывов и обзоров за раз я никогда не слышал! Такое чувство, что многие только сейчас поняли, что в игре действительно есть сюжет, и что все эти сцены и разговоры действительно к чему-то ведут. XD Серьёзно, спасибо! Сейчас я в ужасном состоянии – я уже неделю не спал и у меня ужасно болит спина, но я уже несколько дней хожу с улыбкой на лице!
Отдельное спасибо тем, кто поддерживает меня финансово. Я всё-таки решил купить более мощную видеокарту, когда накоплю на неё. И благодаря такой поддержке это больше не выглядит невозможно! Надо попробовать удержать уровень поддержки на том же уровне пару месяцев, и тогда точно получиться.
А зачем тогда я делаю новую игру?
Смотрите, в чём проблема. Изначально я планировал, что сделаю новую игру, чтобы заработать на создание TIF. Я хотел не особо заморачиваться над качеством, просто делать быстрые большие обновления. Но похоже, я так не умею… Я снова сижу и думаю над каждым кадром, над каждым словом, у каждого персонажа теперь своя сюжетная линия. Я всё так же рендерю анимации по ночам, и из-за этого я постоянно не высыпаюсь. То есть я делаю всё тоже самое, просто для другой игры. И у появился такой вопрос: «Зачем?» Я могу просто продолжить делать TIF, тем более сейчас у меня такая поддержка! Что думаете? Я слишком поторопился с новой игрой? Может стоит продолжить TIF, а вместо новой игры начать делать больше контента для покровителей? Ведь новая игра никуда не сбежит, так? Напишите пожалуйста своё мнение. Это ОЧЕНЬ-ОЧЕНЬ важно для меня! Я боюсь ошибиться.
Я пока буду делать анимации для новой игры. Если мы придём к мнению, что новую игру лучше отложить, я в начале месяца начну работать надо обновлением для TIF, параллельно работая над редактурой перовых двух глав.
P.S. Я добавил насколько кадров для новой игры, чтобы вы примерно понимали, какого качества будет игра.

I think TIF is very awesome, the story is also good, and at the moment I am very excited to see how it will continue (5.7). on the other hand, the new game looks very promising, and i wish to see more of it. I know that won't help you, but no matter how you decide, take care of your health. it doesn't do you any good for wrecking yourself physically.
I think TIF is one of the best games I've played, and would like to see it continued rather than a new game started. But you have to do what makes YOU happy and keeps you mentally healthy. I'd encourage you to keep going on TIF, though. That game really does have a lot going for it. :)
Please continue TIF. I can honestly say i was hooked byt the story and characters by the time i was halfway through chapter 1. Working on 2 games will take an even bigger toll on you and that will husrt in the long run. Take some time for yourself, rest and don't overdo it.
Ну.. я б сказал есть вещи "для тела" а есть "для души". Вот Аромат - явно для души, так что нет ничего плохого, в том чтобы делать проект для тела, с.. ну там более доступными девицами и где секс это элемент скорее из серии порнофильмов, а таки в Аромате всё очень уместно и любителей "чисто потеребить" она всё равно не завлечет.
I absolutely think making a new game at this point is a mistake. It will increase pressure for you and people will be discontent with fewer updates for "their" game. Do it towards the end if you want, but at this point your energy should go towards making TIF the success it deserves to be.
С выбором помочь сложно! Только Ты, как автор знаешь оставшийся размер TiF и новой игры до полной готовности; свои физические возможности; педантизм в написании текста и рендеринга ( согласен, все высокого качества). А тащить на шее два ярма - сложно! Можно конечно чередовать. Работа с покровителями? Да как вариант . Пока не попробуешь варианты не найдешь оптимальный.
I think all of your current supporters would rather you continue TIF. Perhaps you should think about alternating months with the game. Many devs I work with are doing this now. You can also think about bringing on a co-writer to help you out. All to keep things fresh are good...
I wouldn't put TIF on hold, if you feel like you need to do something fresh you could alternate months between it and the new game.
TIF is my favorite game. I was heart broken when you said you quit it. I felt bad my membership was too low. Restart it and I will be thrilled to up my contribution.
Hi, good story is good story, but with without good animation it is only half done work. If problem are animation, so take your time, get some sleep, write scripts first than you dont have to delete or recreate scenes. Personally rather wait 2-3months for good update than every mont bad one. I realy like your last update.
It looks great
I think focusing on TIF is a better choice, and making two games at the same time will definitely make you more tired,Of course, you can also write scripts and character designs for new games when you have time, so that new projects can be started immediately after TIF is completed.
Absolutely, Please continue TIF, there are entirely to many game out there with terrible story lines. TIF is one of the few I actually like, just for the story line alone. And you can always work on the new game when you have time to spare.
Honestly, I would rather you just continue TIF. I am excited about the other game as well, but I would rather you finish TIF before moving on to a different game. TIF is just so good and the story is really coming along. Plus I just love the characters. On a side note, your animations are exceptional. They are definitely one of my favorite parts about TIF.
Please continue TIF good story that needs an end someday
Твоюж дивизию, что в TIF всё шикарно, то в новой игре рендеры обалденные... Я запутался) Хотелось бы и тр, и другое, но блин, мб всё таки продолжить над TIF? Я бы принял это решение, исходя из своих реальных возможностей) И я поддержу любое твоё решение)
Of course you should continue with TIF, otherwise you would be making a low quality game that will not get you much. After all, you need the new video card for a reason, the complex animations needed to support a good story. What makes you think you can churn out high quality animations for the new game with your current videocard if you can not do that for TIF? Oh, and get some sleep, it is better to get the updates slower because you render during the day than become a zombie due to rendering at night which keeps you awake. Or get a sound barrier between you and your computer... that can be as simple as ear plugs!!!
I am happy to hear that people are finally realizing TIF is an excellent game with a story that is worth following and supporting you to continue it. Gets some rest, bud. All the best to You.
