Lack of the trust

Added 2025-09-03 10:15:18 +0000 UTC

I’ve seen a few comments assuming that I might get some cash here and vanish into the sunset – can’t lie, it hurts to read... But honestly – I get it.

I’ve been there too: I once followed a dev and his VN I really loved, only to see the last update was “a year ago” (the dev was fine, but ignored all questions about updates).

I was one of the people that got frustrated, disappointed and stopped caring about his VN – I felt betrayed like others.

So yeah, I understand where these comments comes from.

Some people suggested I should focus on continuing my first VN instead of starting new projects, so I could build trust – fair point, and that’s what I’m gonna do. Words alone don’t mean much; actions matter more. Right?

But will this really change people's opinion of me?

I dunno. Either way, I’ll just keep going and doing what I love.

But here's the truth: If I fail to reach my goal, the development speed of all my projects will definitely slow down – and there’s little I can do about that.

Anyway, right now I’m focused on the first chapter of my previous VN (The "Girl" Who Confessed To Me), aiming for at least 30 minutes of reading time.

How long it'll take? No idea.

I’ll also have to cut down on the number of renders — having 300+ for a short 10–15 minute prologue was probably overkill, and felt like all my efforts were for nothing..

That’s all for now.

Thanks to everyone who follows me here.

I’ll make sure to keep in touch with y'all, if something important happens during my development.

Bye~
