Timing... It's all about the timing...

Hello everyone...

I am going to apologize first before I go on rambling on about what has happened in the last 6 weeks of not being able to do anything here. Again, I am sorry that you have waited for such a long time for anything from me.

First, They finally hired someone at my other job to replace 2 people that were fired before summer. That means I am no longer work 100+ hours per week, doing my business, and theirs.

Second, I have had 2 funerals, 3 wakes, and one of my friends I knew for about 20 years... Well, she has an overdose last week. If anyone here is doing anything that can endanger their lives like that, I will tell you not to and get help. And, I would probably slap you! She almost died from overdosing on heroin. She is now getting the help she needs, but it still was a surprise that she was even doing that to herself.

Third, the programmer ran out the door with his hands in the air, and basically told me it would cost me more to have him fix the issues with that game, as he cannot follow the programming style. Now I am dealing with the fact he has all my raw code for secrets, and trying to get it back from him before I do any kind of legal action against him. Thank god, I keep all my code on separate computers.

Now onto what I have to do:

First thing is first. It seems that I have read all over the internet that people really miss Secrets, and want that more than WRCTF. I am fine with that. I want to do one or the other, but I really want to get Secrets done. Since I have no programmer anymore, I will just continue the way I was and later fix the minor bugs. If you know of anything or how to help this process, please let me know in a DM. I would greatly appreciate it.

I still have renders for the next few actions in Secrets I can finish to complete the next part until 3.0. I still have Rayne wanting to meet up with Val and finishing off that part of the story, and also Angela's big secret to reveal in the next 2 parts.

With WRCTF... Well, that is gonna be something hard to do right now, because the story is going all over the place and I really want it to slow way down from the original. Meg's story is so complicated and intense (At least for her) that I really need to sit down and add more storylines to it than anything. Liv, still needs to have times with Libby also. Don't even get me started with Desire...

Let me know whether to do WRCTF first or Secrets. I am game for both, and want to appease you all with what I have to offer. I am going to start getting back into everything in about a week once I know my life has stopped being wrapped around the finger of disaster. I am truly sorry again for all of the wait, but I needed to do life before I continue doing fantasy. I hope you accept all my excuses and my life being flipped about 4 times in 6 weeks.

Thank you as always. Have a great day and be safe!

I'm really, really sad, but I gave up, despite I'm also 100% sure it does not depend on Stiffman will. The fact that he does not aswer to any message, and this never happened in the past, makes me worry about his personal or family situation; for this I want to express my most sincere wishes...good luck and many thanks for the exciting jobs he did.

Hey Stiffman, I really like "Secrets of the Family" and that's why I decided to support you. Would be nice to get an update on whether you're still actively working on the game.

Hi Stiffman, it's been almost 2 months already from the last news and, even with all due understanding for your unfortunate events, talking about business I must know if I have to still support your job or not. I'd be really sad in saying goodbye, but...

Sirio98

Any updates???

acsansiro

Man, I’m sorry about what you’ve been through recently. I agree with the others here, Secrets all the way. (Not that I don’t like WRCTF - big fan!)

RTPilot

Secrets for sure

Goodknight

100% secret and tkiou fr sharing news and above all to ask us fans what we want...

billjohn

I‘m really sorry for you and what happend the last few weeks! I vote 1000% for secrets!

acsansiro

Hi, what should I say? Against all the life bad surprises nothing else matter (pardon my Metallica citation). Your situation is very sad; every human being must understand that. My very sincere spiritual closeness. As a 'customer' I'd have appreciate a billing suspension for last month, as other creators did...but at the end, that is only a few dollars bill, nothing really worrying. For your creative job, I vote for Secrets: it is more intruiguing and I wish to know how the story evolves, particularly among Liv, the mother and the aunt (all togheter!) Be strong.

Hello, you simply don't want to have to go through everything you've experienced in the last few days or weeks. Sometimes life hits you hard and you don't know where your head is at. For my part, I would be very happy about secrets. I love this game. I'm on pins and needles all the time as to what happens next. I wish that the programmer doesn't fuck around with the code or make a copy of the game. Get some rest first and then start again. We will wait and I hope the majority is in favour of secrets. Have a nice day.
