The Long Roads of Rome.. Can Cause Delays (NSFW)

Greeting, Romans.. Greetings!

We must apologies (and we hope we can explain) for the slower post/update rate during the past 2-4 weeks. Truth be told, during the past few week, Rome has been through some struggles. 

As we mentioned before - sadly, one of our core team members is going through some rough times. It's a personal crisis, so we can't go into much detail because it's a personal matter.. but.. we wanted to update you guys. It's been a hard month for us, and we are sorry if it has affected you, even a little. We are working very hard to balance not harming the project in any way and not slowing down while still being there for our friend and/while sorting this out. We won't try to paint a better picture than it is - this sucks and does impact development, but we believe we have finally found a way forward. 

Truth be told, we were hoping to have the next build (v0.5) released in a week (on the 15th). While we can't promise yet that we'll be able to make it for the 15th - we still might. In any case, we don't believe it will be arriving later than 2 weeks for now, but we just wanted to update you and apologies for slowing down with the posts a bit and maybe (but again.. hopefully not) being a bit late with v0.5. We hope you can understand and while the slowing down should not be dramatic.. we really wanted to thank you so much for supporting us both through "good and bad". Please trust us we are doing everything we can to have the build on time and making it as awesome as we can - it's just that this really has been a bit of a rough month for us.

But hey.. on the bright side - we do have new features, slaves, positions and punishments working already for v0.5, and as you can see in the picture, you will now be able to change your slaves skin color in the temple ;). 

Thank you guys, you really are the best.
The Senate.
