Dev Update (3/1)
Hello all you wonderful supporters.
An update from me is long overdue, so here we go.
The most obvious question is "WHERE UPDATE?" so let's answer that first. It's not ready. Why? Well, the honest answer is I've been struggling with motivation issues for a while (and not just related to working on the game). I only recently realized that this sort of mental state that I've been in is a form of mild depression. For anyone who does not know, some of the side effects of depression are lack of motivation and lost interest in things you previously enjoyed. To be clear though, I have zero intention of abandoning the game, and I genuinely want to finish this story I've spent so much love on. The problem is my current mental state makes it difficult to feel motivated to do much of anything apart from going through my usual daily routine.
But it's not all bad news. I am getting some help and things in my life are finally starting to move again, and in a positive direction. Acknowledging this problem I have is the first step to finding a solution and getting back into a proper headspace. I still think about the game a lot, all the things I have planned, and I want to finish the story BayshoreDev started and share it with you.
So, my new goal is to try to work on the game 30 minutes every day. It's not much, but it's at least something to get me moving forward with the game again, especially since I failed to put out anything this last month. Hopefully that daily 30min will end up getting longer and longer as I regain momentum and improve my mental state.
As for Patreon related stuff, billing will be paused once again for this month, but I am leaving it active for roughly 24 hours to allow a small window for people who wish to subscribe and access the DevBuild. For some strange reason, Patreon does not allow any form of new subscription while billing is paused, despite their documentation claiming otherwise.
One final note, Boob Morning posts in the Discord are still going strong. I haven't missed a day, and I intend to keep this going no matter what. And honestly, it's one of the things that keeps me going, because who doesn't love waking up to a wonderful Boob Morning.
Thank you all for continuing to support this game, despite my inconsistencies and failings. I will be better and do better, for you and for this wonderful game.

Keep looking forward, and keep your head up. You have a bunch of support here and on Discord. Make sure that you have a solid support network of friends and family as well as professionals. Maybe instead of pausing billing, maybe try reducing the billing to the minimum allowed so people can still subscribe and access the Dev build.
Take care
I'm glad ur getting a better direction in life. I know how th feeling of being lost is and hope the best for u!
Both art and game are great. Hang on, you can do this!
