Release Update! 0.9.2 Coming to All Sites 3/30/18! *See Updated Post*

It's not premature. It's right on time! ;) Effectively what I said on Discord is below. Trying to do this update roughly at the same time, everywhere:

Sorry for the lack of transparency prior to this point, we weren't 100% sure if we could pull this off for you all, but we are actually looking to release the 0.9.2 update to all distribution sites (so, Steam, GameJolt, itch, etc.) this Friday afternoon. We have been SUPER busy, both because of some Unity issues we ran into, and also because we may have bitten off a lot for this update. We're chewing our way through that now. We have staff on vacation the beginning of next week and don't want to arbitrarily make you all wait, or risk the update spilling into the FOLLOWING week, hence the new release date for this Friday.

We are working through bugs we ran into in the Patreon Beta still. It's our sincere hope that this next release will be both fun with the new content, the new console commands, but also be playable. Next release cycle we're going to focus a bit more on Quality than Quantity. We hope you can all understand if there are rough spots in the next release. We know there will be a few, but as part of the Quality/Quantity statement we have time allotted next cycle specifically for going back and handling some issues across all the stories we might not have time to touch upon by Friday.

If there are any bugs, that are in story only, hopefully we could get an story files update to fix those.

But keep that legacy Steam branch (with 0.8.8) available, just in case... :D

Oh absolutely. We're ready for hot fixes, story-wise. The biggest concern of ours is for those customers who have access to Steam (or whichever medium they get their .exe/built file) through, but who have connectivity issues to our servers. We'll just have to keep the manual/direct download links updated for them and maintain awareness of their existence.

Great! Seems great material for Custom Story Creator (I guess a new version will come few days after the release) we will customize the models!

I am going to answer this with great sadness and humility in a separate post in a minute.
