Hiya,
Apologies if you feel you've been kept in the dark! I have been making near weekly progress updates on Patreon since Chapter Two's development began, teasing all the characters and scenes and such, but I understand not everyone is keen on Patreon--so my twitter is also a good way to get insight into how everything is coming along!
At this point I'm prepped to release quite a large alpha update soon that will almost complete the main story--and after that, it'll be finishing lots of side events and such. I'm hesitant to give an exact date because those always backfire on me, but I'm really happy with how everything is coming along!
