[p]Hello beautiful people! I'm going to start doing monthly Dev Logs here so you can follow along with my progress.[/p][p][/p][p]

[/p][p]First of all, I want to
THANK YOU ALL for your support of Office Perks. I appreciate every last one of you, and I wouldn't be here without your support! The release has exceeded my expectations, and I hope that more and more people hear about my little slice-of-life AVN and join us in the fun.[/p][p][/p][p]If you've supported me on
Patreon, or are
part of the community on Discord, you already know that v021 is available for supporters right now, and I'm working on v022 as we speak. For those of you that don't, let me explain how updates for Office Perks typically work.[/p][p][/p][p]

[/p][h2]Office Perks Updates:[/h2][p]A lot of AVN's release "episodes" or "chapters"; however, Office Perks is not split up like this. It is one long continuation of the game without any chapter breaks. This means that I needed to decide just how much content gets released for each update since there is no natural "stopping" point.[/p][p]I work hard to try to maintain a 3-month release cadence as close as I can. Sometimes it's faster, sometimes it's a little slower depending on the number of scenes in the update (and real-life events). New updates end after the first scene of a given morning, and the next update is as follows:[/p]
- [p]The rest of the day (morning, afternoon, evening, night)[/p]
- [p]The full next day[/p]
- [p]The morning of the third day[/p]

[/p][p]Regarding the question "When do Steam players get the new updates?" - I have not yet made a final decision. One of the drawbacks to my release cadence is that if you're on solo-paths, sometimes the updates will feel very short if your chosen love interest doesn't have any scenes in that particular update. I have a few different ways this could go, and would love to hear the community's feedback:[/p]
- [p]Release every update as they become available (less content / faster update cadence)[/p]
- [p]Release two updates worth of content at once (more content / longer update cadence)[/p]
- [p]Wait for the game to be fully finished to release the whole shebang (all the content, long update cadence)[/p]

[/p][p]Regardless of the choice I make on this, Steam updates will release after subscribers have a chance to play it. Early access is one of the many benefits of being a subscriber. I am leaning toward option #2 above for Steam releases, but again, community feedback is very important to me, so I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below![/p][p][/p][p]
