Un Petit Exposé

Hello friends,

First off I need to postpone this release for a few days. I thought I would have it done. Sorry about that! It will be out soon but I have...

Stupid Excuses

1. Getting the ENF build running without errors on Steam and then getting the build approved on Steam to meet the release date took a lot more time than I expected. This is entirely on me and I apologize for having to steal some development time for that. I will make the time up!

2. A generous long-term benefactor made a request (the first one they've ever made!). The result of the request is the addition of a new Fairy form to the options menu: Rose Nymph. Of course I have also adjusted the dialog and reactions throughout the story to incorporate this new addition. Getting this one done was a time-consuming hassle because the benefactor is incredibly picky and frustratingly stubborn (I'm not talking behind their back, they are well aware of this). At any rate the Nymph is (mostly) completed and we've mutually agreed that I won't be taking any more requests from them in the future. Weird but hey, win-win-win you-me-them I guess?

3. Another request, nearly completed, had to be pulled back out of the game. That took a lot of time both ways. I won't provide any more details here but I will probably whinge about it on Discord if you're curious.

4. I haven't been able to get enough story in yet! I'm committed to adding 20-30 minutes of story to these updates and I haven't gotten to that point. Need a bit more time.

What's Done?

• Sparkle getting captured as a Fairy on the pirate ship is halfway done but that is what is going in this release (other half to come next)
• Some pet stuff for Lel-owned Sparkles
• Sparkle can now get Swollwang's vial without extracting it herself (as long as she hasn't played with weiners before)
• Finished/fixed the common room scene with JaRemy
• Fixed a couple bugs with the vile vial
• Emo Roopah (I'm not telling)

What's Left?

• Complete the Nymph (won't take long)
• Add more to the pet-play stuff (too brief)
• Get as much additional story progress as I can
• Test the whole freakin' mess

This should only take me a couple days but again, I don't want to promise that. It shouldn't take nearly this long but to give myself a buffer I'm going to say that (unless I'm dead) I will have it out by the 7th at the very latest.

I cannot afford to pause pledges for the month. Please change or cancel your sub if you need to!

Thank you all for your generous support! It has been a long road and so many of you have been walking it with me for so long. I could never in a million years hope to express my gratitude for that. I appreciate you!
