Proof of Life #158: About next Update (Patreon)

Heya human people from planet earth, how's it going? Hope you're doing well as we're nearing the end of 2022 (already). Can you believe I first started working on HC3 around mid-January, and the year is about over as I release the 2nd update? Times flies by so fast...

A few reminders: Update 1 will be released to the public tomorrow (the 20th), and the 5$ version of Update 2 will be out on the 22nd, so next Thursday.

As you might have expected, I have little to say on the development of the next update, having barely spent any time on it. I have a relatively complicated segment in mind that will require new outfits, new sprites, and a completely new map I'm working on right now. Not much to show for now, so I simply added the artist's finished version of Haylen's 2nd picture for the character screen in this post. Doesn't look much different than what I already posted last time, just better quality, and a hat! : )

So, now, the gist of this post: I'm sorry to announce that the next update will be delayed by around 10 days, to the end of January.

There are a few reasons for this:

1) Christmas and New Year's coming up, as well as my birthday, my mom's, and my sister's. So I'll be taking a few days of to relax a bit and celebrate.

2) If it was just that, I'd take like 5 days off, but I will also have to stay in another country for about a week for visa-related stuff so I can move to another continent in a few months. I spent my Sunday filling up forms and booking hotels + tickets among other things to get ready. I will still be developing the game while over there, but I can't be certain I will be able to maintain my normal working schedule, so I'll be adding a few more days of delay just to be sure.

I'm sorry to announce a delay after another delay. Rest assured though, I'll still try to work whenever I can (within reasons), so at worst, you'll get a normal-sized update, and if everything goes well, it'll have more content than usual. Btw, next update will have some Lily and some Haylen ; )

That's about it for this week. I'll see you for the last PoL of the year next week ; )

After a wonderful week and a merry Christmas, for those that celebrate it!
