[PROGRESS REPORT] Interesting Little Vote

World's Crossing Academy Season 2: Security Arc
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

With the help of my Discord community, I think I've figured out how I'd like to do these releases. 

I recently did a poll in side the community Discord. I basically asked, "Do y'all want more frequent updates with less content in them, or do you wanna wait longer for more content?" And, well, here were the results: 

I know. I was surprised, too. I thought everyone wanted us to get to monthly updates. But not EVERYONE wants to wait that long. So here's my idea:

We'll do a Happy Medium between the two. I'll likely do updates every month to two months depending on the amount of content I have ready. I'll start with a Side Content update that has more options for the Free Time section that currently exists in the game. That'll be the halfway mark. Then, the next update should feature the Main Story update that has a few scenes of additional Side Content but takes the Main Story up to the next Free Time section. Or next two Free Time sections, if we've gotten far enough. And we'll alternate. Side Content update, Main Story update. Should end up with 6 to 10 updates per year rather than 3 like previous years. Those who want to wait for the Main Story updates can do so, and those who want to play their favorite girl's new scenes can also do so. 

For transparency, I've also begun listing every bit of progress on a scene-by-scene basis in my #updates channel in the Discord. If you're interested in following the development of the game further, feel free to pop in. You might even find people you enjoy chatting with lol.

Anyways, that's it for now. I want to finish 2 or 3 more side scenes and then release the Side Content update and see how it's received. Should hopefully hit SubscribeStar and Patreon by the end of the month and be in the public's hands by end of September. And by then, the Main Story update should hit SubscribeStar and Patreon, and go public around end of October.  That's my PLAN anyway. We'll see if life has anything to say about that.
