[Announcement] Life comes at you fast.
Yeah, life comes at you fast.
Things have gotten harder to hold together at home, we've moved as most of you know, and the two little ones are getting rowdier while my wife is getting less and less capable of handling them as the baby's day is nearing.
My 3rd kid's due date of birth is then, so I wanted to make a release before that - so I could then focus on family for a month.
So soon, we'll have 3 kids under 3 years old and that's a challenge which I greatly underestimated, it seems.
So unfortunately, I have come to the realization that I will not be able to produce a meaningful update at the deadline which I set for in late June.
She needs me. The kids need me.
I love you guys, and I love the game I've managed to make here, but I need to be there for my wife and kids over the summer.
Of course, it's our own fault for thinking 3 kids would be easy to manage. Well, the two we have are already a handful.
I could push hard and make this update in the time that I've planned, but my heart's not in it while I'm thinking of my family and the coming baby.
Me pushing to get the update out would leave my kids and wife to themselves for most of the day, and would put more stress on both me and my wife, and I can't let that happen.
She's at her wit's end some days as I'm gone working on my porn game, and I end up feeling really bad about it. I need to be there in this transitional period for my family.
I, of course, understand if you guys want to cancel your subs.
Go ahead, and I want you to know that all the support you've already given is greatly appreciated. We are financially stable enough so that I can do this.
I will still be working on the game, and I'm excited for the content that I have planned, because it's coming along great, I just won't be able to release a quality update with enough content for a good while.
Bright side of this is that there will be more than just one option for the first ever Suzie x Someone else sex scene.
I'd rather release one more update end of this year and have it be huge and awesome, instead of push myself and sacrifice my mental health and my family.
I hope at least some of you understand.

Focus on the big rocks and the little rocks will fall into place.

I'll be back with more,

I didn't know you had such responsibilities while also working on this project. I stand in awe of your mental and physical prowess, BCG. Good health to you and your wonderful family.
I'm passionate about this game and Suzie. I would really like to see an NTR storyline with Draco, or at least a DLC with lots of cutscenes between them. I'll do everything I can to keep supporting the game until my last penny, lol. It's an amazing game, man! My biggest dream is to see Suzie sneaking around.
Thank you :) We'll see when the game wraps up haha.
i wish best thing for you bcg
I have waited years for games to release man take your time.
I hope everything goes well for you and your family, that's the most important thing. And I don't know if you've already announced it, but I bet it's going to be a little girl!!! 👍🏻✊🏻 Force to the Mother ✊🏻
The most important thing is that you and your family are safe(Nowadays it's a privilege). Put all your love and effort into something that is important, we'll be here patiently waiting for ya, mate
I first played your game last year and immediately became hooked on it. I just now looked for and found you on patreon and saw this. I'm also a dad of 3 (all over the age of 3 thank God) but I understand, appreciate and respect your choice. My oldest is in HS, middle in 3rd grade and youngest starts kindergarten in September. Every day, I look at my youngest and feel so damn happy and sad. Happy he's growing into his own person and going to experience life and sad that I won't have a little one to come rushing to me when I get home from work or crawling all over me. My little buddy... Treasure it. From one father to another-treasure it. Even the difficult times will be looked back on fondly when they're all grown up. Enjoy it all.
Congrats for your family man. God bless you, your family and everybody that you love and makes you happy. Bring us the news🫶🏻
Family and RL first. We'll be here nawing out keyboards once you're settled. ;)
A Grown Man Decision. Its tough, but the right call. Family First! I stick around.
Good luck with everything, Im good with the delay I bought it off steam before I knew about the Patreon. Since I can imagine who her first 2 options are I can definitely wait. 😁
Family comes first, man. Three kids under three is hardcore mode 😅 Don’t burn yourself out trying to force an update while everything’s going crazy at home. Most people would rather wait for a bigger, better update later than get something rushed now. Good luck with the new baby and take care of yourself and the family. Jim
Hey Jim, thanks so much!
noooooooooooooooo!!! We will wait and suffer.;)
🙏💦
Having your priorities straight is important. Happy for you.
Family always comes first and screw anyone that doesn't understand that. Take care of your wife and kids and when you're able to work on this, us patrons will be happy to get the update whenever you're able to.
Thank you for understanding ❤️
Dude! Honestly, with 3 of my own and nowhere near the ages you have, Irish triplets!?? Leave that poor woman alone! But focus on your family, you will never regretting spent with the kids. Not one moment! But you will regret losing the time you could of spent. These are the most important and special years especially as a father. You need to be present and there physically for these nuggets. Always choose family. Jerkoff materials can wait. I know it's much more than that. It's art. But if people give you shit. That's just cause they can't fap to reruns. You do you and play with them kiddos, Man. These are the best times you'll ever get. Enjoy it, brother.
Thanks man. Will do!
I think Sam's comment is the most accurate: family comes first. In my case, I'm going to continue my subscription because I want to keep supporting this project, which I love. The important thing is that you realized you had to change your priorities for the greater good, and that's your family.
Thanks Lionel, I'll be back and bring you guys an awesome update 💦
Family always first, take care of them; appreciate the heads up though. Congratulations and good luck to you and your family!
Thank you!
No worries bro you need to be there for your family , you have to be with them when they need you most , may everything goes well .😃😊
Thanks for the update! Understand them priorities gotta take care of the fam!
If you are "financially stable enough so that" you can afford to have some of us cancel, why not pause charges for a time? We won't be tempted to cancel and would retain our membership while you take care of responsibilities not related to game development. The huge update idea is exciting.
I've thought about it, and I've paused subs in the past when I wasn't working on the game, or when it wasn't my main source of income. One reason is that I'm slowly stepping away from my half-time job over this summer, so that income won't be there. And if I pause, there will be no money flow, which is bad, even if it's a trickle. I will still be working on the game in the meantime, but at a reduced capacity for the coming two months. So, you have to decide if you want to support me even when I'm not about to release something soon, or not. I understand either way. There's plenty of people who sub only at day of release. And yeah, I'm excited about a huge update as well! :)
All good. If anything, things will be looking even better. Next update is probably gonna be most polished update yet. Take it easy and looking forward to the end of the year update; the Perfect Christmas gift for your supporters.
I will definiitely do my best for it to be the best update yet!
I understand it compeletly. Still was looking forward to the update. Wish you all the best
I'll come back with an awesome update. Thank you!
We understand you, my friend Put what's important first, and family is paramount We'll be waiting for you here
your love & attention are very crucial for a healthy family... so don't stress about your fans, we understand! just remember to breathe & soak up these special moments in your life!
Good luck on the family
ty ❤️
Take all the time you need, friend! Horny people will always be there. Precious moments to connect with your loved ones won’t. You’re making the right decision.
I think I'm making the right one, too. I'll pick up where I left off soon. Thanks!
No worries~ Got 2 and a 3rd on the way right now--no idea how you had the time to begin with.
It was tough, but we managed. Now in the height of her pregnancy, it's not possible any more. Good luck with your coming babies my man, smooth deliveries!
i always say the same thing as most of us, Family comes 1st! always, even more in the 1st months of a new-born! (how about you close the factory ha? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 3 is enough 🤪🤣) jokes aside, i wish you and your family the best in life, as for me i will keep my subs on, as long i can besides is not that much! There's is one thing im going to ask you to promise, DO NOT FORGET about the great game you started. That being said takes as much time as you have to if you going to work on the game don't rush, make the update you want to do, slowly. i much rather have a huge chuck of content other than little bits! And keep us updated when you can, im not even talking about the game, im talking about you, lets us know once in while that you are alive and how are things with you! No rush, no pressure. like i said just dont forget about us and the amazing VN you started!
Damn yeah, 3 is enough. We are DONE. I definitely am coming back, I love working on this game! And yeah after the last two releases I realized that doing short updates is not the way to go. I'll keep you updated, thanks for being here Cardus.
Take care of yourself and your family, they'll give you the foundation for everything else you want to accomplish. It never works the other way around. We'll be here waiting for you when you get back.
Dont worry about it take care of you and yours first and foremost!
Real life comes first, always. Don't compromise on that. We will be waiting patiently.
Sometimes you have to, this is not one of those times though haha
Goodluck with the family BCG don't worry about us your kids only grow up once wouldn't want you to miss it
Thank you!
we'll be here.
And I'll be back!
While I never understood the drive to get kids (xD) ... IF you get them you better take care of them properly! And well... your partner too xP I expect greatness with great options from the update when it comes though ;P
My dude, thank you. I'll for sure give you some 💦 when I come back :D
Best of luck with the birth and all the best wishes for the family. Take your time, we will wait and celebrate big time when you have time to continue. I love Moonripple lake and will continue to support you!
Thanks so much!
Take all the time you need king 🫡
Thanks my man, appreciate it.
Hire me as a babysitter BananaMan!!! I will even do it for free just for youuu~ Take meeeew
Haha you coming to Slovenia?
I am with you man, do what you gotta do, your priorities are in order! Wish you the best and we will still be here when you can return with full vigor.
Thank you my man!
Take all the time you need bro. We as parents and family men understand. Take the time to be their for your wife and kids, the game speaks for itself and we'll all patiently and happily wait for the next update. Best of luck to your wife and good luck with the newborn man !
Thank you!
dont worry man, family always comes first. look forward to the update when it comes.
Thanks for understanding 🙏
The sentiment overall here is clear: family and mental health comes first! And you being transparent is a really good thing - take care and stay positive
Well, I try to be. Thank you!
Thank you for the transparency. I think most of us understand and we would rather wait longer for a better product.
I'll do my best to deliver an awesome update for you guys!
Of course family comes first! Take your time with the game. Good luck with everything ❤️
Thank you dude!
Damn didn't expect to have to cancel my subscription this quickly
😬
But bro moonripple lake new update will release or no more just asking it I know bro family comes first but later on when your wife is okay then you will update the game
He's got a new baby on the way bud, he said he'll get back to the game after he's taken a break to be dad and husband. New update later this year. As of yet he's still doing stuff, but will just be much later.
Damn, I was looking forward to this next month! I hope you and the family have a safe, easy (as possible) period with the changes and new addition! Can’t wait for what’s in store later in the year!
I know I let people down but I promise Moonripple will be back with full force 💦
Family comes first dude, always. You got this! Give your wife a big hug and spend some time with those kiddos, you can always drop in and out of the game, but you'll never get these years back with your family. God speed brother 🫡
Thank you so much Sam.
