Hey, Parasites.
This is why I don’t like making promises or even giving rough deadlines — things almost always go off track. Plans change, unexpected tasks pop up, and schedules fall apart. That’s why I usually stay quiet during development and only reach out when there’s something to show.
Anyway, I hope you’re doing well and ready to check out this update.
And yeah — a huge thank you to everyone supporting the project. Whether you’ve been here for a long time or just recently joined — there are a lot more of you now, and it honestly means a lot. Thanks for the interest, the patience, and for making me feel like this thing matters.
This month, The Parasites turns 5 years old. The project’s been through a lot — and so have I, along with it. I’m building this game on my own, but without your support, it would’ve looked very different. Your feedback, ideas, financial help, and just your attention — all of it helps me keep going.
There’s still a lot of work ahead. But I believe, with your support, I’ll get it done. ❤️
Thank you, everyone. Big hug. See you “soon.” Happy Birthday, Anna🥳Updates
