Development Update - Upcoming Release of Next Build

Hello there, BBN fans! It has been a while since I provided an update here and a few folks have been asking when to expect the next release, so I wanted to share information on that as well as BBN generally.

First, I'm very excited to say the next release for BBN will be coming to Patreon this week, and then here to Itch 30 days later. It has been a while, but it is coming! After tweaking the ending for this chapter a bit, the final renders are running right now, then I'll be doing QC, audio, and creating the builds for PC, Mac and Android.

Second, no one is more aware than I am that this release has taken longer than the previous releases. This is due to a number of factors, including (a) a new job that has required a lot of my attention, (b) hardware problems that included getting a replacement GPU, and (c) some burnout. The new job has just demanded a lot of mental energy and focus, leaving me tired during the end of the day. Add to that obligations to my family and just needing a little time to myself to decompress, and I was burning the candle at both ends and it wasn't sustainable.

I expect future releases will not take this long (again, there were hardware issues that had me offline for nearly a month) and I'm in a much better place now on the burn out, but I do think things are going to be going a little slower than they had been the first couple of years. But I have a lot more planned for BBN. This is a passion project and I remain passionate about it, and I want you to see it all the way to the end.

So, there you go. Thank you all for the interest and support. It means the world to me.

Cheers,

BBN
