Dear Patrons,

Let me share a little bit about what's going on~

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but I was hoping for some better metrics for the Drown With Me remake. But it just goes to show that remakes seldom do well, and I shouldn't really mess with art that's already finished.

On the topic of metrics...with Falconshield it feels like I'm just wading through thick muck instead of running of flying. Getting the numbers to not decline is hard. Patreon support is decreasing by the month, youtube statistics have been at a standstill for several years, and streaming numbers are more or less the same despite my efforts. Quite disheartening at times...but I have to remind myself that I do this because I love to do it...and achieving financial success with Falconshield was a goal I abandoned a long time ago. Still...I wish margins were better.

Now, on to something more fun! I'm working on a game soundtrack(and sound design) for a game called Mighty Miners! Think of it like a Vampire Survivors clone but instead of enemies, you're mining for gems and items! I was hooked on an early build and knew I wanted to work on it, and it's coming together really nicely. The vibe I'm going for is 80s retrowave-adjacent, but more spacey.

Hope you all have a great easter!
