Quick update on a few things!

Hiya! I hope your week has been going well.

Things have been ok here - I got a bit sick last week and am feeling a lot better now, so I'm getting back to work on games after being lazy.

Updates on a few projects:

Assets of the Sea - Neko is still writing, but we're planning on wrapping up no later than the end of this weekend so I can go full game-making mode next week.

Birth of a New Realm - Long story short, I had some back and forth with Steam support and ended up adding a cheats menu so they could validate all features without having to play through the whole game. This was needed since some of the features unlock after multiple playthroughs. This resulted in the game getting the green light to sell on Steam! I just have to set a release date. I'm considering releasing it in April on Steam, but I haven't decided what day yet. I'll give you all the cheat codes as Patrons, of course! I also revamped the demo and plan on releasing the new demo on Itch this week. There's nothing new there for you as a Patron, but it's still super exciting!

Housewife Sim - While I was sick, I spent some time clipping and editing the over 6000 lines of voice editing I recorded. I spent a bit of time today redoing some that you could hear background noise in. Me and one other person voiced literally all the characters, and some of them actually turned out pretty high quality! Others are just okay, but I'm a one-Ellie studio, so I'm okay with that to finally wrap this game up. I'm testing them in-game now to make sure they all line up, which is a lot of work. I'm committing to a fully voice-acted Housewife Sim by the end of the weekend though... Which means I'll go through the process to get Housewife Sim on Steam next!

If you want me to share any more renders from any of the characters from AOTS, let me know, I'm happy to share some of your favorites as we go through the development process.

Last... I'm planning on doing a milky update with pictures of me later in the week. DM me here or on Discord if you have any requests. 🐮 I'm also doing a pieathon 🍕🥧for my "Buy Ellie Dinner" tier supporter at his request on pie day (3/14) and will share some of that if he's feeling generous too.

I'll be back soon with more! Thanks for your support!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
