Various Updates/Progress Report

Okay, I have a number of random bits to get through. 

1) I mentioned this in a previous post, but wanted to make sure everyone had a fair chance to catch it. I've updated the $500 goal for the patreon to reflect current circumstances. I decided that, right now, the best possible thing I could do would be to bring on an actual artist, rather than just free up more of my own time. I've stretched my 'one-man-band' limits to the breaking point as it is, regardless of how much time I have. 

2) The last 2-3 months have been kind of brutal on me. As a result, rather than risking burnout, I'm planning to take it easy this month in regards to any work on The Sexy Cosplay Cafe. THIS WILL NOT AFFECT DoL IN ANY WAY. I'll likely do a bit of character design for Rikka (who will feature in the next update) and I intend to make a new Roadmap post for both DoL and Cosplay Cafe, to give people an idea of where they are and where they are going, but otherwise I'm going to try hard to relax and recharge (I kinda suck at it) in the latter half of this month. The last thing any of us wants, I'm sure, is me burning out to the point that I need to take time off (like what happened in January and February of this year). This is actually part of why I want to try and bring on an artist in the future, as well. As it would take a lot of the pressure off.  

3) Yes, I've started work on DoL Build 6. On account of taking the first two days of the month to finish up Cosplay Cafe, I'm a bit behind, having only finished the first room so far. That was/is the straitjacket room. I'm now working on the second room(a mental path room). Hopefully, I'll be able to catch up and do a regularly-scheduled release. At worst, however(as always, barring serious issues) the delay from finishing up Cosplay Cafe will only push back the DoL release a day or two. 

4)In the rush of posts at the start of the month, I never announced the DoL Focus Path poll results for the month. The Bondage Path won for the month, hands down, receiving as many votes as the other two paths combined! I'm pretty sure that's a first! 

5)A serious bug in the 0.30 Cosplay Cafe release has been brought to my attention(thank you DarkJade!), causing the game to crash if you advance time under specific circumstances in Alice's Office. I've fixed in in the download...or you could just not advance time in her office ;-). I considered making just the script file available, since it was a tiny fix, but ultimately the entire game is barely over 100 mb at this point, so I just re-uploaded it. Please report any additional bugs you find!
