Thank you for your response!
It's a learning process everyday and I strive to improve where ever I can. Updates are one of those areas. I'm still learning what people expect in them and what people like and am totally willing to revamp them if necessary. I do like being transparent and upfront with people though, so I may try to keep that kind of stuff in. I usually enjoy writing updates because it's my way to connect with the 1D community, so having personal touches in it make me really happy. I know some people don't enjoy it, but hopefully there is some type of compromise or ways I can phrase things better to make most people happy.
Regarding the hiatus, it was just a one time thing. I'm not one to up and disappear like that on the regular--my mental health was just at risk so it needed to happen. Even if we have struggles in the future, I have morals and those morals won't allow me to just quit when people have invested money into something I and my team have created. So, even if we do have more setbacks, I hope our supporters will still trust in us to get this game out!
Again, thank your for your encouragement and I hope you'll enjoy the games when they're released!
