Hello everyone,
As you've probably seen from the recent devlogs, I've managed to make a lot of progress and the game is now almost fully polished and finished. It's been quite a push, but I think the results have been worth it. I hope you'll enjoy it!
🚀Release Date
Starting with the big news, the game is nearly complete and, after giving it some thought, I've decided that the release date will be July 2nd.
💜 Patreon Adjustments
You may have already received a notification, but I've made some changes to the Patreon tiers. I wanted to make everything more affordable and adjust the benefits so they better match the prices.
The main changes are:
Mid-Level Plum — Reduced from $7 to $5
Senior Plum — Reduced from $12 to $10
Plum Manager — Reduced from $25 to $15
Plum Director — Reduced from $50 to $25
For Manager and Director, the old 50% discount offer has been removed, since the prices themselves have already been cut by roughly 50%. If I run future promotions, I'll do so using Patreon’s built-in systems instead of creating separate tiers.
Another important change is that early access builds will now be exclusive to Manager and Director. The previous workflow of preparing a build for every tier had become incredibly time-consuming, and I feel this is the best solution alongside the price reductions.
It will also give me a bit more freedom to share more private builds without as much pressure. These builds are intended to be earlier versions than the public release and may still receive fixes and adjustments.
Honestly, I believe this change will help me share playable updates more frequently.
⚙️ In-Game Options Update
During this polishing phase, I've also added several new options to improve accessibility and customization.
Textbox - Show or hide the textbox, and a new Cinematic Mode that lowers the dialogue, hides the interface, and adds black bars for a more cinematic experience. If you want the dialogue placement without the black bars, you can use Cinematic Hide.

As always, I'd love to hear what you think. I do read your comments and messages, and I always appreciate your thoughts and feedback. 🙂
Thanks again for all the support. I can't wait to finally share this update with you! 💜
