I've been watching this game with great interest *insert my cheesy Palpatine impression here* for awhile now.
To be blunt, Elmwood is the first game I'm actually considering joining Patreon for. (Will have to see, as my budget gets REALLY complicated this year.)
Bottomline WickedWare, if you see this, you have talent. No BS, you really do. You take these character models I've seen in other games and turn them into fictional individuals people actually care about. You also get the Number 1 Rule of Drama: Start Slow and Build! You have a smooth TV/Streaming series writer style. I don't get the impression at all that this thing is flying by the seat of your pants (even if it is!) You're a focused storyteller and it shows.
Closing up, keep up the good work. While I would love to see your updates pop up more often (my main criticism, scratch that, minor nitpick) I would rather wait a few months for a quality story installment than for a new dev to rush themselves, caving to pressure from their community. As long as quality is consistent you will have a fanbase. And I meant what I said, if all goes to plan you will have a new sub in me.
Happy New Year!
