A week and a half is the amount of prep time I gave myself to finish this update. I'm pretty surprised at all I was able to fit into this update in that time. Development was slow and I did not think NFP could be fixed in any short amount of time, and certainly not a week and a half.
I got a reminder email from Steam about an upcoming sale and the idea flew into my head to get the new update done in time for that sale, which was a week and a half away. I thought "Hey, why not? I have half a week to decide if it is possible and then I will announce the possibility if it could happen a week before."
I wanted God's opinion on it though, so I told him I was going to try this, but that I wanted his opinion on it. I never know if I'll get a response but I still try to talk to him. In this circumstance I didn't get any clear response and I continued with my plan. I was making good progress until couple of days from the deadline where I hit two roadblocks. All I could do was give them to God, and so I did, and the problems seemed to just melt away like hot butter. God is good, and I accredit this game to him!
There are still some bugs left that I know need to be fixed that I didn't have time to get rid of, but I got the most game breaking ones out! I'll release a patch this week fixing some of them.
One last thing, I mentioned that I wanted to know what God wanted me to do. Just yesterday I learned what it is he wants. He wants our thanks. It's not that he wants us to do any specific job, he just wants us to be thankful when he blesses us in what we do. Thank you God who provides answers when there are no answers, paths when there are no paths, and love when there is no love! Thank you God of all!
Thanks for reading and God bless you!
