Questions Regarding TOX VN's Shutdown
Good morning, readers- I've been getting a lot of questions. I've put together the list of questions frequently asked lately below.
1 - The artist is leaving. Why?
I cannot simply answer this question for there are two sides of the coin. Besides, that would be alike to airing the dirty laundry out to everyone, damaging mine and their reputations further. There would be no end to this battle of who is right and who is wrong.
2 - Will you start working on this VN again in the future?
No. While this VN is truly the biggest dream that I've been strictly committed to and wanted to make it happen, no artists could barely even face the difficulties, or so to say, obstacles while working with me. This is quite literally the third artist that have been asked to leave the team/resigned on their own. Secondly, to search for the artist to rework ALL of the sprites... I believe that is too much to ask for. This would mean making my patrons wait for many months to come, and especially the public would even have to wait much longer. Lastly, I've learned a lot from this VN personally, so now I'm perfectly capable to create something entirely new- using my experience and feedback provided in the past by the public.
3 - Are you going to create a new visual novel, or have any plans for the future?
It's not something that everyone know, only selected few friends close to me would know. But I will publicly announce this right now. I certainly have three visual novels in mind, and some are already planned. Now then- I'm fully aware that my visual novel "Tales of Onyx" is very unique to its own rights due to the fact that it's not linear, but gradually change over several chapters, especially each time meeting a new husbando. Let the romance slowly blossoms from there until the day ... But it's crystal clear enough- majority of the readers didn't want something like this. The usual category where every single VN out there starts as a linear story with one single husbando, nothing more or less. The usual category where several VNs out there starts immediately with multiple husbandos for you to choose only ONE right at the end of "Chapter One or Day One". This is the majority that expected me to produce, but were caught off-guard with the way how my VN had developed.
Despite all that, I think I will go with the majority if I am to produce brilliant VNs on the par with Tales of Onyx. To summarize, the future of my VNs will develop nearly the same way that extremely popular VNs have been developed. Perhaps going with the route of choosing one husbando out of six husbandos, and to stay with for the entire story line. I can definitely confirm why it's so easier for the creators to do this way.
4 - Are you going to look for another artist?
For Tales of Onyx VN? Regretfully, that's a no from me. I'm done making my lovely patrons wait, and making the public wait even longer. However... I just might look for a new artist to work with me for these new visual novels I will develop. Kang will continue to work with me faithfully for the backgrounds. New artist for sprites & CG scenes would be only needed.
5 - What will happen to your Discord server? Patreon/Itch.Io?
My Discord server will continue to stand until the end of time. This is the beauty of my community that I've watched to flourish over time, and would like to keep it that way. They will likely be the first people to know about my future VN developments before the news go public on here and Patreon. Feel free to join our wonderful community. https://discord.gg/ZtHJfXGUyk
Patreon will still be up, but slated to be used for something else in regards to new VN development in the future. The same is true for Itch.Io.
6 - Are we going to see what had been done in Patreon development?
Yes. Firstly, I need to recover from this unexpected news. Please give me several weeks to make the Patreon Version 3.2 accessible to everyone else here.
Thank you all for taking your time to read.

This truly was a great VN thank you for al you and your team do for use my self and a lot of others will miss this but we all know these things happy but still thank you and your team for everything.
Question (if I may). The MayWolf FVN Jam 2024 has been announce, with the rules getting revised with the experience gained from the 2023 jam. Would you have interest in creating, or joining, a team and submitting a VN to give yourself a positive moral boost?
Thank you kindly for asking. Given the name that is "May"Wolf FVN, is this something that happen and get released on the month of May? Mainly because I will not be available for the month of May due to moving from Florida to Maryland.
I'd like for you to have information from a reliable source, as I'm not 100% certain how the jam is being handled this year. It would be best if you visited the Furry Visual Novel server on Discord and asked for information. Someone will quickly direct you to the MayWolf discussion and the overseer of the jam. You'll meet people there who submitted work last year too.
Hope life treats you well in the coming days
Ah yes. I know who to contact about this. Thanks ^_^
