I promised you I'd sub to a patreon if you launched one but I got laid off Friday so I'll have to hold off for now but when I get back on my feet again I'll for sure be throwing you some support. Congrats on the launch!

Hey no worries. I >really< don't want anyone to throw money at me if it will hurt them financially. The game is gonna get made either way. Still plenty happy to have you here!

Thanks for the update! I enjoyed exploring the new content.

The new scene with Ellie was nice, and the subsequent events were fun too. I felt bad for Lucy though because of her fracture. The new art for Scout was a surprise when I opened the companion menu, I like color you added there. Being able to see the day when loading a save and what monster loot you are trading with the army are both helpful additions.

With the army, I noticed that when trading for alcohol, I always received 6 instead of they have listed.

Also is it possible to spy on Ellie again instead of knocking on her door after advancing her route? I tried a few times but it always said the room was dark and curtains were closed. Is there some additional step to get it to trigger?

Besides that, the roadmap on the Pateron is cool. It's nice to see where things are going and what you have planned for the future. I'm most excited to meet Deedra and the other companions in due time as well as seeing how things change in the coming seasons.

Thanks again for the update! Hope everything goes well with the development, and I look forward to the upcoming releases.

The spying thing was reworked, if you hang out with your companions and drink, the option will return. It'll be expanded on in the future.

I'll double check the alcohol with the soldiers, again, thank you for the bug spot.

I hope you continue to enjoy the updates to come!
