Recession Pricing
Not gonna sugarcoat it; we're in a recession.
So I’m doing the following as a result:
Prices are reduced across all upcoming LESPs, which will go from 40 to 30; this is the pre-pandemic pricing.
Superb prices, and all closely price-matched rewards, have been lowered to around 60 to 70. 60 being the new release’s Superb price and 70 getting you likely all of the re-release superbs as well.
Joke characters like the Violent Videogame will be introduced each month at a 10-dollar superb price. I’m finishing up the offers for November and December as we speak, so expect updates.
If this strategy works out, I’ll likely keep some semblance of it (I’m really not sure about the joke characters since I have enough work ahead of me in the future).
Most collaborations will stop after December unless I have a promising new partnership.
A Blue Deer retaining his role as the subscription artist is still on the fence. I’ll likely need to hold a vote about it in November.
Thanks for supporting the game at such a shitty time in history, guys, it really is appreciated.

Future Sales Plans
I apologize for this one, I wasn't trying to gaslight people about slowing down my releases. I just have a lot of self doubt issues and didn't want to knee jerk react. I also had a lot of artist contracts still in my pipeline, so I wanted to give things a bit longer. Here's my current sales strategy plans heading into the holiday season:
November 1-15th is Horror Show Neko, the 16th until Black Friday is a long planned collab with Flexible Survival, and Black Friday will likely be just re-releases (and maybe something stupid at 10 dollars, we'll see).
In December we'll have my Angelic Vax Bunny and a new 12 sprite Haley from Nightfaux.
Starting in January collaborations are slowing down. Unfortunately artist's haven't been able to bring their fans to the table lately, and this is likely due to over exposure of my game on their end.
Note that I hired Live Nude Ghouls for October not because he ever made me money, but because he enjoys the work a lot.
Even though we likely aren't hitting the goal I set before December, it is likely I will keep ABD for the Chinese Zodiac in 2026. If the holiday season goes a lot worse than I'm projecting that may not be the case.
I have major plans so I'm not particularly worried, I just can't really promise anyone anything for obvious reasons.
Thanks for reading

Future Navigation Update
Just letting people know that i have been working on a massive navigational update that involves the player walking around, speaking to NPCs and potentially more.
I don't want to link it here yet because it's using art that isn't mine as a placeholder, but it supports tiled for pixel maps, ink conversations, and dynamic asset loading on the back end.
I plan to update the renderer to Phaser next month and hopefully finish structural development around then.
With any luck, ill have something I'm comfortable with the public interacting with around January.
