Hi everyone, yes yes calm down, as much as we'd love to see that view as we hear "The British are coming!" one can only wish!
Artbatch has 1 image and another version of it, I've also moved the contents out of last years folders to the main folder. Scarlett is based off my British friend staying with me who gave permission. She wanted to be seen in anime style giantess form with as much likeness as possible. So she even let me take photos of her tattoo's to pass along to the artist. At some point she should be a small npc character in game and/or doing voice lines a little too. Not sure if the microphone on my phone would be clear enough but we'll see when I can think of some lines for her. Fun fact: In the last game update in Eden State, you might see a pixelated photo of her leg and foot with her tattoos too, inside an apartment you can't get into as you head towards the elevator to go down.
No game update this month unfortunately. We're still waiting to hear back from the landlords who have let us stay until the end of Feb currently. But last update we've been told is a 65% chance that we (god willing) won't have to move and they will instead while they tear down and build a new house on the property. My mental state also deteriorated extremely badly past ideation while I had been on Lexapro anti-depressants and I'm now trying another one that works different called Effexor. I won't know if it works for a few more weeks but I do feel a bit better, able to focus more, and can feel emotion again a little so hopefully it'll work.
Anyway, I'm still working on the game of course (albeit this month I admit at a slow pace due to not all being there in my head). The artist I'm still trying to organize assets as I need quite a few to do for the hide and seek parts. I've been getting a bit carried away with wanting to make as many hiding spots as possible and have moving images to go with the mechanics too.
Thank you all for everything again, and those who have stuck with me for years and the hard times I've been through especially in the last 2 years. I really mean it from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you. It didn't affect me much at all, and just got a little shaky and bad thoughts but nowhere as bad as the no feeling when I was on it. I'm now on Effexor XR and bit afraid if I have to come off that one because of what I've seen others say. It's been helping me focus and see through the constant fog, but not helping the anxiety/feeling emotion as much so I think I have to try take another on the side for that. I haven't had brain zaps before but can't imagine that'd be any fun. Hope you found something that helps you. If Lexa didn't work, the neuro part that Effexor does for me might help you.
Nope Nope
Lexapro works for some people, but I know that it sucked for me. It took a few months for the brain zaps to stop and 6 months for the fog to clear entirely. It was an absolutely terrible medication for me. I hope your experience coming off it is better.

Thanks man. Yeah unfortunately for this line of work I had to move full time to it or it would take me forever to get anything done. Working 9-5 then coming home, the last thing anyone would want to do is work again as you'd be so exhausted. The Lexapro pills made me lose all emotion entirely and it's a terrifying feeling while not being able to feel terror if that makes sense. Was the first time that made me understand why so many people I've known ended their lives after going on some sort. I only started taking them as a last resort too and I'd been struggling creatively. I try to avoid talking about these things because people would rather hear about content for sure. But when I'm not able to deliver an update or struggling for the past few months I feel bad and feel I have to explain why I couldn't release something good.

I wish this project is your sidequest for your mental stability than a mental burden, like expressing your creativity for fun. But I don't know how much you rely on this economically, and I know it's not always fun to do works. Housing and renting is all messed up worldwide. I hope your situation get settled as it seems like your housing state is so unstable. My family member took anti depression pill on the verge of breakdown, and I could see the change of personality on that period. Made me even thought it might changed the soul, but it got better now. I wish you get better too. Scarlett is so beautiful, I can't wait to see her character in game. I'm alway thankful that we get this status update every month. Some creators just shy away without any words, but you are always straight up and clear about the situation. I'm here to thank you and cheer you up! It's a journey we are taking together, I guess
