Thanks so much for the kind words, it's nice to hear that you found the game memorable and enjoyable enough to come back to, despite the lack of update. I hope that when Chapter 2 comes you will enjoy that as well, and rest assured I'm in no way heading towards abandoning the project. I'm too excited about what's coming for that to happen. I'm very hopeful that future updates past Chapter 2 won't take as long as this one has, but either way I'm very committed to this project. It'll get finished at some point no matter what, and I'd love to be able to release updates much quicker, as there's so much story still to tell, but as with a lot of DAZ projects I am at the mercy of render times (as well as just how much time I personally can invest).
Thanks again for your comment, I appreciate that you liked Chapter 1, and hope that what's to come is worth the wait.
