Supporting high-quality queer-woman-centered games in an environment where so few exist is its own reward in my opinion—and something I am quite passionate about—but I totally get enjoying/preferring the process as a solo project. Thanks for your thoughtful response anyhow. :)
I was pretty on top of checking messages as soon as I received them—but maybe it was a different issue, I can't say for sure. Though it's interesting to hear that events are randomized–I did get the sense that Augustine was a bit warmer at times than the relationship development seemed to call for at that point and I now wonder if that's an effect of the randomization.
