π§β¨ GENERAL ARCHIVES STATUS UPDATE β¨π§
Or: Your local trash panda is getting a (slightly) more consistent source of caffeine!
π First time here? Read the intro post!
THE HEADLINE: In about two weeks, I start a new job! (This is a GOOD thing!! Rent money = more time for coding long-term, believe it or not! π)
π£ WHAT THIS MEANS FOR THE ARCHIVES:
My schedule is shifting from "unemployed chaos gremlin" to "employed chaos gremlin." Here's the new game plan:
ποΈ GENERAL UPDATES: Will shift from daily to every few days. The chaos will be less frequent, but I promise it will be just as unhinged when it arrives.
πΎ BETA UPDATES: After the next one I have planned, the schedule will shift from every 2-3 weeks to every 3-4 weeks. Quality over speed! This just means each update will have more baked-in goodness.
β±οΈ ETA of the game itself: This one is a complete maybe, but I may have to push it to late (like Nov/Dec) 2026 instead of my og June 2026. I will absolutely tell y'all if this is the case though!
β’ I realyyy don't want to accidentally spread myself too thin and give myself burnout, ya know?
βΌοΈ THE MOST IMPORTANT PART:
This project is NOT stopping. It's my hyperfixation, my love letter to TMA, and my favorite thing to work on. This just means I have to be a little more adult about when I do it. (Unfortunately, the Beholding does not pay my bills π« )
Thank you all for the incredible support so far, especially everyone who's downloaded the beta! Seeing y'all enjoy it is the best motivation ever. Now let's get this bread so I can eventually get back to coding you more digital statements! π»β¨
ETA for new schedule: September 19(ish), 2025!
