**Edit**:
Getting there but encountered some big hiccups in the UI and the Respite loop (not another time loop; I just mean the gameplay cycle). On the upside, someone helped me code some extra LB content I thought I was have to push back.

Once again I will share a semi-public Playtest (ie. to ya'll / some Discord peeps) as soon as it's at least vaguely playable with a fully polished released this coming week.

Hi everyone, just wanted to give a quick update that I'm still working. I'm almost done Respite and hope to have a playable copy this weekend (even if it's still in playtesting, I'll share that as it should contain well more than a weekend worth of faps, etc.).

Hopefully things improve after this egregious bottle-neck. The 8F merge at least should be very smooth and I received some good news that Swan/Crow Part 3's code is being fixed/tested in advance of my handling.

Although I've written major changes to Bo's SC3 prototype in terms of story and content structure (similar to SC2 (ie. Crow's entire sequence)), I was somewhat dreading the Part 3 code cleanup (similar to 7F) so the surprise progress on that is helpful (albeit shameful; outside help wouldn't be necessary if I could get my act together).

In other news, the Heelfall JP translation is nearing completion. This is relevant because once it's complete, I'll implement Bo's "Leda Expansion" for the definitive edition of the game. Hopefully this will be quite profitable on Dlsite,etc. but regardless it's more evil queen milf content for you. Since progress on this is keyed to stuff I've delegated, I can't give a timeline but will update when each step is met (ie. JP translation done, Leda EN done, Leda JP done, etc.)

At any rate, I believe my life is in order and everything is arranged to finally maintain a consistent release schedule. In the immediate sense:

- Respite (kindly treat this as March even if a truly polished version is a bit late)
- 8F Iris Integration/Expansion (April)
- Swan+Crow Part 3 (May)

There are some other/parallel things in the works that I hope to drop as they're ready, but it's certainly better not to overpromise at this point.

Thanks as always for your support. Also, I may have mentioned this before but I'm much easier to contact on Discord (Koda#3103) than Patreon (which has a terrible UI and very unreliable notifications), so apologies if I'm slow to reply to Messages here.
