1 Valentina Event!

Harper's Sixth Event has been Redone!

What a weirdly horrible and wonderful development period. This is a very short update. I would range it will take about fifteen minutes, which is around what my very first updates used to take back in the day. They are, of course, still to the quality standard that I set for myself and essential to the story, but if you wanted a lot of content - please skip this one and wait for the next one.

It's not actually that short, except a good chunk of that time is spent in Harper's revised event, which is so different it might as well be new. I had to redo Klaire, update the lighting in her parlor, and make a number of changes to the event to... make it not terrible? It was easily one of the worst still in the game, surpassed only by her literal next one. I will be revising it in following update.

So, why wonderful?

I think I've figured out how to address the burnout after several months of relative hopelessness. No, it wasn't work less. And no, it wasn't work more.

I needed to take on a few new challenges. I tried to pinpoint when my burnout occurred and it was roughly around the time I started to recover from my health issues. You see... to me, life saving medications are kind of like the Terms and Conditions box. You accept it without reading it because you don't have a choice. I read the label, out of boredom, a few weeks ago and realized it makes me drowsy.

No, that's not why I got burned out.

It was just another thing that reminded me I'm not taking very good care of myself. The bigger contributor was that a few months ago I stopped drawing because of how drowsy I was and that took a lot of my personal happiness away. I was just too tired to focus on art. I replaced that time with... random nonsense. Internet browsing. Social media. Things that give cheap dopamine and it's incredible how damaging it can be to your psyche. I got a site blocker on my browser and added every social media site to that I frequent, purchased an online art class (it's the proko basics one), and added some morning exercise to counter the drowsiness. All of this within the past development cycle, and the new routine in the last three weeks.

My productivity is increasing again, and I am so very happy.

Whoa this post is long.

Anyway, enjoy the update! The next one should be more feature complete. The next one will also be the last one before the game is wishlistable on Steam. I hope. Terms and Conditions, and all.

Thank you for all of your support,
