Now, to answer the question: WHY SO LITTLE CONTENT?!

These past two months have been incredibly exhausting...

Between work and studies, I also faced burnout.

On top of that, I spent an entire week just sitting there, wondering why everything I do turns out so badly (typical whining, I know).

I sincerely apologize for that...

Another reason is that the next arc I’ve planned turns out to be much larger than I initially thought.

And I’m afraid that if I started working on it now, I’d only be able to finish it by early summer at best – and that’s just too long of a content drought.

So, here we are.

As for quality:

Previously, I was confident in my renders but not so much in my writing and storytelling.

Now, this update has been heavily focused on those aspects, and I can confidently say that I’ve improved a lot.

If before, I rated my dialogues at 3/10, now I’d say they’re a solid 6-7/10 (there’s still room to grow, of course, but not everything happens overnight).

And yes, the Codex…

It’ll have to wait a bit longer. I’ll try to get it done before the public release, but I can’t make any promises.

There’s just too much information to include, and besides that, I need to figure out how to format it properly.

However, I’ll at least drop a galaxy map in the Discord later, so you have a better understanding of what’s actually going on. I think that will be helpful.

Alright, I talked about burnout, delays… what else? Oh, right, animations!

Please don’t be mad, but there are very, very few animations in this update.

The reason is their quality—since I do all this work alone and not on a full-time basis, I physically couldn’t make more within this timeframe.

That’s all for now! Love you all, hugs, and see you soon!

Yours friendly neighborhood dev,
