"next gameplay update ready late April/early May." - That's nice, that'll be around the end of the current college semester :)
"the story isn’t that far off in introducing pregnancy either" - Honestly, felt like Yuri's Nightmare was trying to introduce pregnancy as part of the story, so even if that wasn't the intention.
I understand not wanting to touch the mechanics at the moment, just wish I knew they weren't fully implemented before I wasted a few hours trying to see a Forest Maiden birth... But, now I know, and we wait to see what April/May brings.
