Hi friends,

I hope you're all enjoying summer!

If you're looking for something fun to do when it's too hot to go outside, I have great news: this year's Queer Bundle on itch is finally live! 

I can't recommend the bundle highly enough. For 60 bucks you get an absolute plethora of queer games made by queer people, with lots of really awesome titles in there. There's also a pay what you can option for folks who can't afford the full 60. Please check it out! Both Tavern at Night games and TSL are on there, too. ❤️🌈🏳️‍🌈

Other less fun news: I'm sure that many of you have already seen this, but itch deindexed all NSFW content on their website due to payment processors putting restrictions on them. Free NSFW projects have now been restored, but the situation is still pretty dire.

I strongly urge you to sign petitions, send emails, or call if you're able. You can find out how to do so on this landing page. It has resources, information, and direct links to petitions. It only takes a minute to sign one.

Alright! Finally, onto the log:

I'm back to work on RiO's episode 2 (and demo update). I think I have a pretty good idea of the outline of ep2, and have already started writing. Actually fleshing out the details is taking some time because we're getting into some pretty heavy plot and worldbuild stuff, but I'm making sure to pad it with relaxation moments with the LIs 💞

I've also sketched out the three villains' sprites, and have made progress on Mr. Erusk:

old man enjoyers rise UP✊

Next up: I'm going to try to concentrate on the backgrounds that still need finishing for the demo, since those have been the biggest thorn in my side. till next log!

much love,
