Chapter 14.1 Status Report (12)
My plan was to release the new update by late August or early September, but here we are, and I haven’t managed to finish everything I had set out to do. I apologize about that.
The main part of the chapter is almost ready, but I still need to add a couple of variations to a certain scene, and honestly, there’s another one I’d really like to include. I feel like it works as the emotional climax of this narrative block.
It’s frustrating; I’ve been pushing hard all month to get everything done, and I still fell short.
This weekend I’ll need to take a couple of days off to head home and celebrate my birthday, but once I’m back, I’ll keep crunching to get this wrapped up as soon as possible.
There’s not much left, but after so many weeks of constant work, the final stretch is proving tough. I’ll use these two days to catch my breath and then dive back in at full speed to finish the remaining scenes, run a proper playtest, and publish no later than mid-month.
Once again, and as always, thank you all for your patience and trust. I truly hope to deliver something that lives up to your expectations very soon!
Also, it's been a while since the last Q&A, so I'm thinking about doing another one after the release, if you're interested.

It's really disappointing that the release has been delayed again
Dude, would you rather play it half-baked and unfinished, or with the same time and care thats made the rest of it so good? Just trust that Eva will put it out when its ready.

It seems, we're born on the same week! Happy birthday!
I hope you had a good birthday. Looking forward to the update.

I hope you have/had a a great birthday. And as many others I say same thing. Take your time and priority to make it as good as possible then a half done stressed episode. Take care <3
Have a great birthday! Take your time, the releases to ORS are always worth the wait.
Happy birthday Eva! Hope you enjoy your days off and please don't push yourself too hard, no pressure to get it done :)
Happy Birthday! do you think u will do another game after this one?
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday! Enjoy a few days off.
Happy birthday. Take your time.
No issue and happy birthday to you. You've done your best but if it's not there, doing extra hours will only : - burn you - decrease quality (in writing, art, etc...) which in the end won't result in something good for us, the players. So it's alright, I prefer to wait and extra week or two and get something with as much quality as usual !
Targets are good, even if you miss them sometimes. Hang in there.
Happy Birthday. Enjoy the Days of and your Family
Enjoy your birthday! I prefer to get the finished day in one piece. And I very much would like another Q&A.
Happy birthday! May all your wishes come true!
Take care of yourself Eva! That's the most important. We've been waiting, we can wait more.
To the tune of the Volga river boatman's song: Happy birthday. Happy birthday. May the candles on your cake Burn like cities in your wake. Happy birthday.
"Burn like Cities"? Sounds a bit too Nero-like for me ;) .
It has always been worthed the wait. Enjoy your birthday!
Some things are worth waiting for. Enjoy your well deserved break and have a happy birthday
Don't feel down. You always put quality over release dates and this is good. You are doing well with your game. You are one of the few creators that puts out a lot with each update and create the most believable dialogues. Enjoy the little break and get the rest done afterwards.
based on prior experience, i can almost guarantee that this update will be worth the wait. So recharge and have a great bday weekend! this games a marathon not a sprint
It's alright, we will wait, you always deliver top quality work and happy birthday can't wait for more lesbian content and Ian and lena content keep up the good work dev
Hello, be well, happy birthday, regain your strength, rest, I'm sure it will be worth the wait, the quality so far is impressive, please consider a route, Lena and Ed, and Ivy's gameplay, influencing Lena more and more.
Take care of your health and have a nice birthday !
Don't stress out. Pretty sure everyone wants quality over speed, so I say take your time. Looking forward to the chapter when it comes.
Take your well deserved break and have a great birthday. No need to burn yourself out and potentially make a something you feel is bad. Can’t wait to see the update when it comes out, a Q&A would be awesome as well. Have a great birthday Eva.
