Update Blog (with a Special Comic Release)
🕑 Added 2023-02-23 15:53:48 +0000 UTCDear Patrons,
How are you? I hope life has been treating you well in these rather tough times happening all over the world.
Related to my work, there is good and bad news.
โจGood news:
It took me a week to do an update blog because I'm guilty of making a comic as a special and bonus chapter. This comic exists as a glimpse of the future of how Sasha's world (Culture shock as a game) will be. For those who'd like to avoid spoilers, don't worry because I personally want you to witness where the game's headed and how Sasha's character will develop by reading the comic. Though it's a sneak peek to the future, it doesn't mean that whatever is in it won't involve story building & crafting ๐ธ. Therefore, here is the link to comic and I hope you enjoy reading it as I did in making it.
Special comic: The Wishlist -Act 1 [Roughly 50 renders paneled into 8 pages]

๐Bad news:
While programming our next release, there was a little trouble. I couldn't focus at all since my cat passed away. I personally apologize, especially to those who don't have pets and likely would see this as something unrelatable. Consequently, this led into me being careless in coding and it resulted in 2 scenes being mixed and messy. They are still experiencing issues and lack of content as I should have been more careful in writing the program. In result, these are the progress so far:
- Fruit seller scene 2 done ๐ฆ
- Night dine scene 1 (experiencing issues)
- Jogging scene 2 done ๐ฅฐ
- Fish seller scene 1 done ๐
- Bus scene 3 (experiencing issues)
I am on my way in fixing them and making a clean path as I go. I hope you can understand and I apologize for any inconveniences. The release for Tier 1 is still planned by the end of this month. Trying my best and I hope the comic above can be a form of compensation.
Thank you, everyone. Bless you.

Misc:
Several potential questions:
1) Why making a comic while developing a game?
- There are several reasons but the main one is to divert my attention once in a while to avoid burnouts or creative blocks.
- There was a generous donation
2) Will the update be big?
- It will be similar with the previous update, but without the design upgrade. Thus, I hope it feels bigger
3) When will this game be finished?
- The story only has reached its 7-9% progress. It's safe to say that it still needs time.
4) Will "The Wishlist" comic be continued?
- Yes, but only one more chapter (act II). Then, I'll be resting from comic making for a while
