Those Virtual Hugs, But Round 12!

So, um, apparently at least some of you seem to miss me doing these, which I wasn't expecting. So, let's do another one! Uhhhhhhhh... Well, recently, I've been doing jigsaw puzzles with my mom. There was this one bakery we saw a lot and wanted to try out, and we did. The food was okay, but the real highlight was this one puzzle that was sitting on the table. We didn't finish it that time (we had a time limit), but we came back another day and did finish it, so that was nice. And we've been going back ever since. ːsteamdanceː We don't normally do puzzles like this, since my mom says that it's just a big time waster (and she's right), but having a specific place where we can sit down and do them, has been kind of nice. Have you done any jigsaw puzzles lately? It might be kind of cool to try doing something like that again. If not, then, well, give yourself a pat on the back. I'm sure you've been working hard and deserve this rest. Hug-splosion for you! ːsteamsunnyː UPDATES ON THE SEQUEL!

There are no updates. Literally none. Zip, zilch, nada....Yeah, that's the main reason I haven't been making little updates over here is because I have nothing to share. >_> And if I have nothing to share than...it's just kind of superfluous. ːsteamsadː But if you want me to do an update without an update, then, um, here you go? Reason for not working on the game? I'm broke. Like, super broke. I won't go into just how broke I am, but I definitely can't hire people to work for me. And I don't think it's fair to do the work of 15 different people, all by myself. So, unless you guys can find me a jungle full of oompa-loompas who are willing to work endless hours for the price of a cocoa bean, then the sequel is staying in limbo land. Other Thing That's Just Meh? So...I've been debating whether or not to share this with you guys at all for reasons I won't get into. But, uhh... I've made a comic? Sorta? Comics have been my thing since I was a kid, so in actuality the game was a weird outlier in my history... However, I have committed the cardinal sin amongst the artist community and made it almost completely with A.I. Art. *Thunder claps dramatically.* So, the style is quite different than my usual style because, um, it's literally not me drawing it. But it looks shiny? It took me half a year to figure out a process to make it look that good, so...uhhh...that's a win, I guess? It's also senseless smut for the first five chapters, but we don't talk about that. Be distracted by the pretty pictures to forget what you're reading. I've been posting it on both Instagram and Webtoons as I miraculously haven't gotten censored again. Might try reuploading that other comic I made, but I'm still weary of doing that. Either way, I really don't care how much attention this comic ends up getting because I literally didn't draw it and it's basically smut anyway, so I mostly try to pretend it doesn't exist. I've been working on this as opposed to the sequel because I can make it for free, I am deliberately seeing how lazy I can be as a comic creator, and once I get an actual job, I can
