State of the Nimin
14 years ago
General
Well, it's been over 3 months since the last update and it'll probably be a bit more since the next one, so I'd figure I'd make an announcement before the "are you deads" start coming (which I'm pleased to find they haven't yet).
Like I have said before, the next update won't have much in terms of new explorable content. I have mostly been working on the background code and game format, updating and balancing a lot of things. I'm sure you'll notice much of it quite quickly when you play, but there's not much arousing content.
The new explorable content will mostly be the contest winner's entry from back in November. They have quite an ambitious scene they're working on and probably won't have it all finished for the next release, leaving more to come in the release after that, like I have done with Lila and Jamie before. Beyond that there's some new prostitution scenes that didn't make it into the last release, and I'll hopefully finish up what's left of Lila and figure out what to do with Jamie (I had a plan, but the contest winner's event covers a similar topic and does it better, so I'll have to figure out something new, which is probably for the best anyways).
All that being said, Nimin might be going slower than usual. Between certain disappointing events and then the holidays, my motivation has been pushed aside a lot. I'm also hoping to finally get a job, which will require me to move across the country and will likely interfere with how much time I have to code. However, though the process of uprooting my life and actually making progress in it after 3 years of stagnation has made me a little anxious, the thought of actually having a life again has kinda excited me and actually sparked some desire to code more of Nimin and even draw some more. So, this change could potentially make the Nimin releases speed up without being bogged down by depression, instead of being put on hold to account for the job.
So, to summarize the above paragraph: Nimin is going slower than usual, might take longer due to major change in life (might get next release out before then), might also go faster thanks to the major change in life.
If Nimin ever was going to stop, I'd definitely make an announcement concerning so (unless I actually died in an accident and didn't have a chance to post so, but I think such a disappearance would be obvious :P). I have no intention of stopping anytime soon, I'm just taking it in stride. I don't have the hundreds of dollars of donations to complete things like Fenoxo does, nor do I have the motivation to do so atm. I might some day, but not now. I make the game for my own creative outlet (just like I've been writing and drawing over the past 4-5 years), not as a service to everyone else. I love how so many have enjoyed it and even been inspired to draw/write about their experiences, but I take my time so I can enjoy it as well ^^
