What's Coming Soon
🕑 Added 2023-12-29 09:19:53 +0000 UTCI've now gone the longest ever without updating on patreon, missed most of my intended Halloween content updates for the first time in my website's existence, and gone the longest I've ever gone without updating Awful Hospital.
This is all 100% due to working on Mortasheen. If you weren't aware, @gutsygills on tumblr has been helping me put the game together for months now, and without her help, there'd be pretty much no hope of progress at all, since the gameplay developer has still left me flying blind with only rare contact.
I wanted the game out by Halloween, but that proved impossible. As we speak, I've spent weeks working all day, every day, neglecting pretty much everything else (maybe including some of my health) to try and make the first book presentable by the end of the year, which right now is only three more days away.
I am actually close enough that I could still have a decent first digital book in the coming few days, though it still won't contain all the content it was supposed to. Even some artists I paid up to three years ago just never got around to their work, so I've also had to do a lot of extra artwork myself, in addition to tedious editing and formatting of text alone for tens of hours at a time.
The number of things I want to do with my life and art the minute I'm done with this book is kind of massive.

Oh no, I hadn't realized you'd been bailed on like that! I guess it's a little late for me to offer now, but is there anything I could do to help in the future, if there are no potential legal complications? A very brief search turns up, "Under the FLSA, a volunteer will not be considered an employee if the individual volunteers for public service, religious or humanitarian objectives" and I think Mortasheen content counts as all three.

People suck
Some of the artists who got paid 3 YEARS ago still haven't done what they got paid for? That's actually insane to me. That's plenty of time, after all... Also, please do not neglect your health... I'm sure we can wait a bit more and it does not need to get speedran for an end-of-year release.
