Update Beta 1.5 Release
Added 2023-12-25 23:30:01 +0000 UTCThe change log for this update can be found here.
I've been dealing with some health issues that have been making it rather difficult to get writing (or other work as well) done. It's gotten a bit better than how it was in the middle of the month, but I've still wound up rather lacking in things to put into this update itself. I still want to get something out during December though, as there are a number of improvements and fixes in here that there's no reason to keep held back from the public. So, as a Christmas present, here is what I'm calling Beta 1.5. Thanks for your continued support and patience as I work things out on my end.

Shame, but at least you're still up and kicking. Maybe make the post when you have a ETA for when the hiatus will end, or something?

2024-04-07 01:35:05 +0000 UTCUh, well... actually no it isn't. As for the game itself, I've certainly done a lot of miscellaneous additions/bugfixes during good days, but actual writing for content to build an update around... Not so much. Writing itself takes a lot of focus and effort, and when I'm supposed to be writing the WITCH specifically it gets very frustrating/difficult very fast when all your brain is doing is telling you to go lie down 100% of the time. I do certainly owe people a proper update post, but basically what's been happening that has prevented me from doing that has been me being in a continuous loop of "okay there's a thing wrong with my health, but if this NEXT thing that I'm doing to figure out/fix it works then I can at least include the steps I'm taking to get better in the public statement to keep things positive" and then that next thing doesn't actually work out. I probably should write something more comprehensive about this (although how much detail should you go into with health stuff on the internet really?), but the short version is like: Continuous unending fatigue starts hitting around the beginning of December (vaguely alluded to in this post actually), making it very hard to focus in and get things done. Go through various tests/actions for trying to fix it such as: Psychiatrist (meds adjustments), several blood/diagnostic tests, sleep study (went TERRIBLY but I didn't display any sleep apnea at the very least), rheumatologist (blood test turned up positive ANA presence which may be indicative of autoimmune disorders, but I have no relevant symptoms for those so no diagnosis could be made), and therapist (not going to fix the problem but probably still good to do) None of the thing done so far fix or even definitively pin point what is actually wrong Currently doctor does not appear to have all that much of an actual plan of what to do next and is starting to suggest doing things that I've already done again in hopes of a better result (I don't think this is a good sign). I am still constantly debilitatingly fatigued but now also incredibly frustrated and stressed by the fact that I've been stuck like this for months when I WANT to make my game because my game is GOOD and I want it to succeed. I'm currently trying to see if I can drag out any more possible options of things I can do from my doctor, but I have no idea what those things would actually be if they exist at all. So that's not like... A super great report to give to people when there isn't really much of any positive note to end on.
