Hey everyone,
Unfortunately, as I said might be possible in the previous status update, I've made the decision to delay the release of version 0.10 by a week. This means the pre-release will now release on April 14, and the public version will release on April 21. My apologies for the late notice on this- I kept telling myself that maybe I could make the previous dates work, but I've realized the update just needs a bit more time before it's ready. It was reaching a point where I was considering excluding some content that just isn't ready yet from the pre-release and saving it for the public release, but I feel like that would defeat the purpose of a pre-release!
A big reason for this delay stems from my trip to the Game Developers Conference. (Which I mentioned on my socials, but yeah, I went to GDC this year if you didn't know!) That trip was extremely important for Baldi's Basics Plus in the long term, but it also took over two work weeks out of my usual development schedule. The week prior to the conference was spent making preparations and the week of the conference was spent traveling and, obviously, being at the conference. Several days after arriving back home were just kind of weird as my regular schedule had been disrupted and my body needed more rest than I'd anticipated. This was my first time flying, and even leaving the East Coast, so I had no idea what to expect.
With the initially proposed dates I felt like I was properly accounting for that lost development time, but in hindsight they were just a bit too tight. One more week ought to be enough for me to get this update pre-release ready in time for that and cleaned up for the public release on the 21st. Again, I apologize for the delay, but I think the wait will be worth it!
