Pausing development for the month
Hey everyone.
I am writing to express my sincerest apologies for unfortunate circumstances that prevent me from being able to ship this month's release of DoC.
As you may know, my father has been battling health issues recently.
-----CW: Medical details here----
Last month, his aorta ruptured, and he's had to go through open heart surgery. The recovery since then has been a mixture of ups and downs, with his health recently taking a turn for the worse.
It's been a tough journey for me and my family, and our primary focus right now is to support my father through this critical time. I used to bury myself in work, both through DoC and my day job, so I could not think about it too much. But with the news of his condition getting worse, I just can't bring myself to work on personal project for a while.
-----End of medical details----
Given the gravity of the situation and the importance of my father's well-being, I have made the difficult decision to prioritize being by his side, and have paused the Patreon for a month.
I assure you that my commitment and enthusiasm towards the project remain unwavering, and I sincerely apologize for not being able to contribute to its success at this specific time.
It's just too much for the time being. I truly have tried my best to sit down, write and code, but it simply is not happening.
Once my father's health stabilizes, I will be fully committed to catching up on any missed work and ensuring that my contributions to the game are of the highest quality.
Cheers everyone, thanks again for the support.

life happens, thank you for keeping us in the loop :)
I went through losing a parent to illness. I hope and pray for your father's recovery. I know firsthand, though, that you'll be grateful for dedicating time to him regardless of the outcome. Family always comes first. Take care of him, but be sure to take care of your own well-being too. Can't be there for him if you neglect yourself.
take your time. be there for your father since you are unsure on how long you got left with him. i hope he pulls through and gets better. but we are willing to wait while you take some time to tend to your private life and health. i wish ya the best
<3 Please don't fret any at all over us here, we are happy to wait and rejoin this journey on the other side of these medical troubles. Family comes first, Wishing you and yours all the best.
Health has priority over work: take care of your father, we can wait
Take all the time you need Sombreve. As someone who has lost their father to medical complications, focus on your father and show him all the love you can to help him get through this challenging time.
Life happens, take all the time you need without worry, your personal health both physical and mental are more important -hugs-
