ETA update + Random dev notes

Hey everyone,

I hope you're all having a good weekend! I'm waiting on some renders as I type this so I thought I'd leave a random update for those who are interested in knowing.
I'm keeping around 3 more days to work on renders, followed by a few days to work on code, and then some bug testing. I'm liking how the episode is turning out so far and I hope you like it too.

The update should be done on time with no problems. I really want to have a sale when the next episode is out so those who have the game on their wishlist have a chance of getting it at a discounted price. The next sale I can have is on the 8th of August so it looks like that should be our release date. Random reminder - updates are free.

I read every review the game gets because I want to know what you like/ don't like about the story so far. There are so many positive reviews and I'm very grateful to have all of you try the game in such an early stage. I've seen a few posts about the length of the game being short right now and I hear you. This is fairly early access and It's nice to know that you still enjoyed the game. I'll try my best to dish out updates as fast as I can and development time will improve as soon as I can upgrade to a PC. I'm going to be investing in a 3090 or 3080ti (for those who are curios) which is a massive upgrade from my current 2060 laptop.

If you have any questions / suggestions, as always, my discord pms are always open. A few of you already contacted me so feel free.
