๐Ÿš€ Beta Access Phases

With every new release, access will be reset and redistributed:

๐Ÿ’ก Please note: The app may remain temporarily unavailable for your tier during the scheduled delay period. If this happens, simply wait until the opening date listed in the appโ€™s post description for your tier.

To make access more structured and fair, every update will now roll out in three phases:

๐Ÿ’ก Please note: This approach helps reward every tier โ€” the more you support, the earlier you get access to the newest version.

๐Ÿ›  Development & Release Cycle

Each new development cycle begins right after every public beta release.
Hereโ€™s what it looks like behind the scenes ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ“… Month 1 โ€” Full Rest & Recovery

๐Ÿ’ฌ After each release, Iโ€™m usually completely exhausted, so I take this time to recharge and reset before diving back in. During this month, I also handle access distribution and work on smaller, easier parts of the project.

๐Ÿ“… Month 2 โ€” Community & Planning

๐Ÿ’ฌ I run polls, write dev blogs, share updates and ideas, and slowly get back into coding.

๐Ÿ“… Month 3 โ€” Deep Development

๐Ÿ’ฌ This month is all about coding. I focus entirely on building the next release and preparing it for testing.

๐Ÿ“… Month 4+ โ€” Possible Delays

๐Ÿ’ฌ Any time beyond the third month usually means technical challenges, creative blocks, or real-life circumstances (such as the ongoing war in my country).

๐Ÿ•’ What to Expect

Realistically, new versions shouldnโ€™t be expected earlier than 3 months after a previous release.
My work speed depends heavily on motivation, inspiration, and your support.

๐Ÿ’ก Please note: This project is still a personal passion project, not a full-time studio. Until we grow enough to hire help, please keep that in mind when setting your expectations.
