Greetings,

I'm thrilled to share the progress I've made in Chapter 2 of my game development journey. I've achieved a significant milestone, and the current progress stands at an encouraging 65%. I am feeling optimistic, and everything is going smoothly. Likewise, I am targeting a mid-to-late August release date for Chapter 2.

In this phase, I successfully completed the blocking phase of animation. The hard part of the animation work is now finished, and although some future tweaks and polish are needed, having the core animation framework in place is a big win.

Moving forward, rendering the animation will start this week, bringing the game to life visually. While progress is promising, there are still some coding tasks and image post-work that require attention. I'm dedicated to ensuring these aspects are executed flawlessly to deliver the best possible gaming experience.

Additionally, I've been working on some essential improvements and expansions:

1. Website Development:

I'm creating a new website dedicated to my 143GAMES project called 143games.fun, and it should be going online within a week. This platform will serve as a central hub for players to explore and learn more about my games.

2. Boosting Social Media Presence and Expanded Content Sharing:

To engage more with the gaming community, starting from September, I'll be more proactive in sharing updates, promotional content, Work In Progress (WIP) pictures, and bonus pics on my social media platforms, including Patreon, Twitter, itch.io, and deviantart. Be sure to follow my social media links for regular updates and free bonus content!

3. Finding a Healthy Balance:

Balancing my day job and game development has been challenging, but I'm finding a healthier balance now, dedicating more time to my passion.

4. Discord Server Setup:

I'm working on setting up a Discord server to connect with fans and supporters, allowing for better communication and community engagement. Stay tuned for updates on its launch!

Your support is invaluable, and I'll continue to provide regular updates on our progress. Thank you for being a part of this adventure with me.

Take care and warm regards,
