v0.03 Release Date Poll
🕑 Added 2018-11-19 11:35:59 +0000 UTC Alright guys, I've had a lot less time this week than originally anticipated, and a lot left still to do. I've been trying to figure out the best way to release v0.03 before the end of the month, and I think the best way is to cut out the zombie 3-Way scene and add it later in v0.04 as well, along with Sydney's introduction.That way I can not only get things done on time, but focus on polishing the v0.03 content and hopefully get a beta out for Special Forces 1-2 days early as well.
But I'm going to leave this decision up to you guys. Do you want to wait a bit longer for a better v0.03? Or would you rather have an update this month with less content?
Unfortunately December and January are probably going to be pretty busy months for me as well. So I'm probably going to have to do a better job of planning. December might be a smaller, Christmas themed update featuring the gremlins or something. It'll be put to a vote as soon as I've determined how I'm handling v0.03.
I think I may have spent a little too much time this month gathering feedback and input through discussions and polls. While I believe that results in a better end product, it does take a lot more time. A lot of developers can push out a lot of content, but sometimes at the cost of ignoring their supporters. I guess I still need to find an efficient middle-ground that works for me with my schedule.
Basically I want to know how many people prefer monthly updates no-matter-what VS updates that are polished and released when they are 100% ready? I fully understand that Patreon is setup to run on a monthly billing cycle so I assume most people want one new version at-least once a month to compensate that. But I'd still be interested in knowing where the majority lies in this issue. Especially since some features, and versions in the future are going to take longer than others depending on the content.
Please give me your honest feedback on this. The last thing I want is to let you guys down at the last minute, so I'm trying to sort out the best way to proceed early. Thanks for your support!

Wow, didn’t think I’d get home to a 100% vote on the 1 week delay. Thanks for your feedback! I know the majority of people simply want to support me, but I also figure there are a number of people who only care about the next release and nothing else. Plus, I’m weary of the fact that Patreon is charging monthly and people might not have pledged if they wern’t going to get a new version before the next billing cycle. But it’s good to hear your guy’s thoughts. Don’t worry, there’s plenty I have planned for this game that isn’t going to be out to polls! The only reason I’m giving a lot of polls is because a lot of these things are going to all be added at some point, so the polls are usually about you guys getting to choose the priority of things or just to help me make up my mind on something I was indifferent about. For example, Futa characters aren’t usually my specialty, so I wanted a lot of feedback on the Futa Zombie’s design to make sure she was appealing to Futa lovers :)

Waiting is no problem if it means you putting everything you have into your content. After all we are here to support you, what you want to do with your content is up to you. While having choice in the game's development is nice don't forget its your project and if you feel something should be a certain way or if the build your working needs more time then well so be it. Keep up the amazing work.

Honestly, I prefer waiting an extra week for your content. But I think that you are putting out a little too many polls. I don´ t know about the other guys, but I do trust your gut with decisions and wouldnt mind having a few less options (especially regarding story development in the early stages of the game) as our opinions and votes often screw up your pre-planned vision. anyway, keep up the great work!
