Update Status and Important Personal News

Hello my friends! I hope everything is fine with you!

Unfortunately, I’ll have to postpone the release once again.

Due to the current situation in my country, which I won’t go into detail about here (but feel free to research the news, just avoid the traditional media), my top priority right now is leaving. I took some time to make this post because I wasn’t sure how things were going to play out. Now that I have a clearer picture, I feel comfortable explaining it to you all.

Last month, I traveled to the country I plan to move to and got most of the things I needed sorted out. I’m now in the process of moving both my personal life and my business there, and honestly, it’s been consuming a lot of my time and energy. Because of this, I haven’t been able to finish or test the update the way I wanted.

I’m truly sorry for the broken expectations, but at this point, making this move is imperative. If I don’t, the future of the game itself could be at risk. The truth is, I don't agree with the direction the country is taking, and that's a big part of why I'm making this move. In the future, far from here, perhaps I can explain better. That said, my final move is scheduled for the end of this month, and things should settle down after that.

Now, something very important I want to say:
If there’s one thing I deeply care about, it’s my reputation. I never want anyone here to feel deceived or taken advantage of. And I say this from the heart, with all due respect and zero rudeness: if you feel harmed in any way by these delays, please feel free to cancel your support. Really. You can wait without paying anything. The game will eventually be released for free, as it always has been. I just don’t want anyone feeling unhappy or like they’re being scammed.

That’s it.

Now, a little about the update itself:
As it often happens, I ended up adding more than I originally planned. One of the big additions is an ethnicity system. This is something I’ve been thinking about for a long time, and I saw this as a good opportunity to test how it’s received before the migration to Godot. The idea is that there will be original ethnicities already included in the game, and also the possibility to create, edit, and add your own. The cool thing is, this data interacts with the AI, so for those who enjoy playing with AI features, there’s more depth and immersion now.

Anyway. I apologize for the inconvenience. More info soon, but the work continues.

Thank you once again to everyone who’s been supporting me through this!
