Thank you for your concern! I do try to take breaks, but with the early-access release coming up on Steam and all the Patreon content, things have been pretty hectic lately.
I’m glad Chase is getting some appreciation! Sally and Sylas are actually in a different category from the other romanceable characters, they’re the protagonist’s mentor and companion throughout the game, so their relationship with the player isn’t based on gaining love points. Instead, it’s defined by canon events and a binding pact that keeps their bond strong regardless of player choices!
Sorry for the late response btw!
