Update - Masami gets some love

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT! I JUST WROTE AN EXTREMELY LONG AND IMPORTANT UPDATE OUT AND IT TOOK HOURS, BUT PATREON LOGGED ME OUT WITHOUT WARNING AND DELETED IT WHEN I CLICKED SAVE!

This will not be as long now, because I don't have the time or patience after Patreon fucked me here. I had much more thoughtful reasoning behind everything when I first typed it and I was giving some insights into my thinking and my design process. Instead, now I'm just going to do bullet points and I'm not going to bother with the usual format because fuck it. Incidentally, Patreon doesn't normally time out. It just logged me out in the middle of editing, probably because of some kind of bug. I was even being careful - it screwed up when I hit "save".

Anyway, here are the things you need to know:

• I couldn't make the deadline to finish the Nega Fumi content this month, so it's going to be in next month's release. Even though I've been working hard on it I found there's more to do than I realised, and it will need a bunch of testing. Better that I take more time and get it right for next month, rather than rush it out in the next few days after sleepless nights. I am frustrated about having to delay this again, though, as I was really trying to get it done this month in order to put an end to the delays.
• I will be replacing it this month with a selection of new collector cards, new challenges and a room in the victory suite with new bonus scenes based on the new collector cards. This is still a good amount of new content, involving those tentacle scenes, some new 'stripper' versions of Iku and Fumi, and other new stuff that I've played with.
• I didn't like the intro I wrote for the Nega Maids, so I'm scrapping the whole scene in which they were going to attack the mansion and I'm introducing them in a different way. I want to shift to the idea that the Nega Maids are fun bonus bosses, rather than an important part of the plot, because I think they're more fun and they work better that way.
• I've tweaked and improved Masami's design a bit, in particular her costumes, so I'm going to include some more stuff with her to show it off a little. I think the tweaks worked out really well. The shower image above is from a new scene I'm including this month as well.
• I've taken on one last round of patron commissions for PAL and I plan to wrap up all PAL commissions once and for all in one big patron-commission monthly release. (Hopefully.) These will be the last PAL commissions I take for various reasons that I wrote about before Patreon deleted them and now I don't feel like repeating myself.

Despite my annoyance about this post, I'd still like to hear from you guys. Do you generally enjoy stuff commissioned by other patrons? Have you wanted to see more Masami? Do you think I made the right choice about Nega Fumi? Are you disappointed that there's another delay in the Nega Maid content? Let me know in the comments!
