Thank you for the update! It is very important to hear from the developers. Even if it's a bad news. I've seen several projects, that I liked, being shut down after long period of silence. Sometimes even years-long period without any news. And it's unbearably sad. I'm relived to know that you've done major work on your novel and desire to put more efforts into making the game you'd be proud of. Do it at your own pace and take care of yourself. And if you drop a line about how your game progresses from time to time, we'll be happy. :)
