Hey guys!

I hope you've all enjoyed Chapter 44 and are having a great end of the year!

While February 1st is the anniversary of Out of Touch (And almost 7 months since Tropicali!), with this upcoming date marking 3 years since we launched, I would like to take a moment to look back on how far we've come.

2021 feels like a lifetime ago, and there have been good times and rough times for everyone, myself most certainly included.

But despite everything, look at what we have: Two games, 42,000 renders, nearly 400,000 words and a wonderful community of friends that I count myself blessed to be apart of.

And all without a single missed deadline.

This is generally where the "But..." comes in these kind of announcements but...there isn't one.

Seriously.

The world is full of uncertainties, and yet you guys still find the generosity to give to a silly creator like me month after month.

That's a level of faith and trust I strive to live up to every morning when I get to work.

So here's my "But...": 2023 has been a phenomenal year and I'm glad to end it on such good terms...but...

It's going to be nothing compared to what's coming next year.

We're not going to rest on our laurels.

My promise to you is that I will produce the best content I've ever made in 2024.

And my only hope is to be able to keep sharing that with all of you.

So truly, from the deepest part of my heart, thank you to each and every one of you.

We're all going to make it.

Sincerely,
