July roadmap!

The next Patreon goal is tantalizingly close! Since I have a lot of newer patrons, and a lot of projects that I'm working on, I wanted to give a run-down of the plan for July.

Love Collector is my primary focus this month. Getting it ready for the Twilight update. I realized when I started digging into this that my coding has improved a lot since I last worked on this game. Now it seems so messy and hard to follow compared to SHF. I'm working on bug fixes and finishing the WIP parts of the Rainbow Dash update. 

The comic is progressing at an ever-faster pace as my drawing improves. I've been streaming art, usually comic work, on Mondays and Thursdays at random times. Feel free to come and hang out on picarto and listen to me whine about how hard drawing is. Or you could mute me. I would.

I've also been putting aside a few minutes to work on something that's simpler to code. It's an animated visual novel-type game, more similar to the "click to progress" type Flash clop games than anything I've made so far. It's a bit more interactive than that, but it's mainly narrative-focused. The code is actually very small, so it'll allow me to have a project that doesn't require a ton of programming to update- just some art and animation. Expect a very WIP prototype sometime this month!

Secret Horse Files 3 is taking a back seat in favor of Love Collector for July, but it's not on hiatus! I have a couple of major features in progress for the next update, and they need a bit of time to get functional. One is an "attention" feature that makes the ponies look at the terrible, lewd things you're doing to them. Another is a set of non-pony rigs to continue expanding the cast of characters. Also there's a fluid storage and transfer system whose code I'm chipping away at. :3

I'm like halfway through a website update that would allow patrons to log in to my site using Patreon and let me to ditch the password system I use now. It's not high priority though. As long as y'all are able to get to my content, I'm happy.

As always, I'm not promising exactly when anything will come out. Things get released when they're ready. Every morning, I wake up utterly amazed at the amount of support and patience my patrons give me. It might seem like I'm slow and unresponsive at times, but I'm hard at work trying to make all the support you guys give me worth it, even if I kind of suck at social media and general PR. :|

And I read the comments and messages I get, even if I don't respond.

Thank you! <3
