I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to provide an important update on the game's development. Regrettably, due to complications with previous backups, I've had to rebuild Echoes of Fear from scratch. Progress stands at about 25%, and I'm working diligently to balance these efforts alongside existing family commitments. Your unwavering support means everything to me. While I'm targeting a release by the first quarter, I want to convey that there's potential for the game to be ready even sooner. However, please understand that these commitments might affect the timeline. Rest assured, I'm committed to keeping you informed regularly regarding our progress and any potential adjustments to the release schedule. Thank you for your continued dedication to the Echoes of Fear community.
