Starry Chain (On Hiatus)
What happened.
Hello everyone! First, I would like to apologize for my disappearance. I was facing some private family problems. To keep it short, gossip about me being a furry reached my parents' ears in the worst way possible. We had a terrible fight, and I didn't want to do anything anymore.
I just wanted to forget. Fast-forward some years of me just surviving during the pandemic, after catching COVID-19 for the second time and struggling between doing art and work, I couldn't do it anymore. I moved out to the countryside of the neighboring state.
It was difficult at first, but I managed to restart my life. I made some new local friends who encouraged me to draw again and to return to the community. Alas, I was still afraid to return to it. I didn't want to fight with my family again, and I was also unsure how to face you.
Well, now I am here, and I want to apologize for disappointing and worrying you all. I promise to do better and regain your trust.
About the visual novel that was developing. Let's say it is passing through a reenvision. For now, I would like to put it aside a bit and focus on drawing and painting. So many things have changed since then, but I wish to return to it someday.
So Starry Chain project will be on hiatus and reenvision indefinitely for now. However, I would like to share that I've been thinking a lot about the project lately, including narrative construction, world-building, and characters. It may as well become a completely different project. I will work on it slowly.
I apologize again for disappearing and worrying you. I am grateful for your support, and I hope I can make it up to you all someday.

just glad your okay with the sudden disappearance and world events I thought the worst, take your time and keep your health in mind while we'd love an update we also want you to be healthy and thriving
Wow! I'm so happy you're fine now! We were all worried, fearing the worst. I think most of us know what does it mean to face parents that don't accept us as we are. It's painful, and it can leave deep scars on your self esteem, and make you feel unworthy of all the good things life has for you. It's great you're finally finding your tribe, the people that loves you just like you are, no matter what. And about Starry Chain, I know everyone here fell in love with your beautiful work. You're a true artist, and I know one day you will be able to fulfill all your dreams, so you can keep dreaming and creating more and more!
Glad you're doing alright all things considered, I share the same sentiments as everyone here and hope you take your time joining back again. Wish you wellness and success on getting back on your paws and thank you for coming back
Honestly so glad to see that your doing alright! Glad you made it to the other side and are enjoying art again, can't imagine how hard it must've been to come back at every step. Chin up, and good luck with future endeavors. Even if this project isn't continued in any similar form or even at all, I'm still glad I got to enjoy it for what it was, and knowing your doing okay after all this time is a great ending to it if nothing else. Thank you for coming back and for making it through!
Hi, I just wanted to ask if you're doing okay. It's been a while since we last saw you. I was starting to get worried—not about the project, but mostly about your health. So I really hope you're doing well, and that your mental health is okay too. In any case, your community supports you, and I’ll support you all the way. <3
I'm so glad you're okay, and it's a huge relief to hear from you. I'm also so sorry for everything you've been through. What happened is truly a shame, but the important thing is that you're okay. And no matter how long it takes you to renew the visual novel, I'll wait that long. Again, I'm glad you're okay.
I hope you’ll get back into your rhythm, because it’s been a while since we’ve seen you. In any case, rest well, and don’t stress. Stay positive 😥
It’s not easy when your family finds out you’re a furry. It’s hard for them to accept that kind of thing. Stay strong! Stay strong! And sorry to hear that.
Thank you, I will do my best to stay strong and positive.
It’s not a big deal, plus it’s hard when your family finds out you’re in this community. Anyway, I hope you’re doing well. And take your time. No need to rush. I hope everything is going well. (Sorry, I’m not great with words :o)
It is okay. Thank you very much for your kind words.
take your time we love the vn and well wait
Thank you, I appreciate your patience.
I am glad you are alive.
Thank you.
Sorry to hear that happened to you, but it's good to hear that you're still around.
Thank you, I am happy be back.
I'm sorry to hear all of that happened to you. it sounds like it was... difficult. I hope everything turns out better for you and remains that way. also there is no need to apologize, or "make it up" to us. life happens and no one can really judge you for being afraid after that or wanting to move on and forget since that sounds painful. just be happy and take your time doing whatever you love. if it's this, wonderful! if it's not, I hope you have fun and enjoy it.
Thank you for your words. You are right, I almost forgot how much I enjoy drawing and writing. I am happy to express myself in such a way again.
I am glad to read that you overcome these problems... I believe you become a stronger person now and I am looking foward to see how all this life experience will improve your work.
Thank you. I am also excited to show new works.
Sorry to hear what happened. Glad things are better. Hope they get even better still!
thank you very much.
All happy to see you back bud. No stress just go back to enjoying art and if you ever decide to work on "this" project again then do so but dont do so for us. Do it because it is what you want to do.
If you realise down the line you dont actually wanna make a vn anymore then simply dont.
We'll be saddened not to hear of a story from you sure but most of us (the silent majority) will root for whatever choice makes you happier.
Welcome back friend.
Thank you for having me back. I truly wish to continue working on the project. Every time a new idea strikes, I am always excited to get it down on paper. But when I revisit the older files, I can’t help but see them differently, almost as if I’m viewing them with fresh eyes, and I feel like making some changes. That is why I want to take my time with it.
It may not be the same project, but I hope to captivate you the same in the future.
Yeah feel you on this one. Started working on my own vn over 5 years ago and made an alpha of the game back then. I decided to go into studying music production at Abbay road institutes and learn digital art with Marc Brunet digital artschool. Theses things have been taking up a huge ammount of my time so I didn't work on the project beyond just noting down ideas for years. When I replayed the alpha and went through the initial script of my game a few months ago; I felt HELLA disconnected from whatever I wrote back then XD.
Thank you so much for your message and your honesty. What you went through must have been difficult, and yet, despite everything, you're still here, determined to start again, to create, to share... and that's courageous. You have nothing to reproach yourself for. Life is full of unforeseen events, and what you've experienced deserves compassion, not guilt. Taking care of yourself, taking a step back, is the most important and difficult thing to do, but you did it. And now, you've found the strength to start again at your own pace, on a new footing. Those who still follow you believe in you and support your journey, whatever it may be. Whether the Starry Chain project evolves, takes another form, or ends permanently, it doesn't matter: the important thing is that you are fulfilled and true to yourself. Thank you for sharing all this with us. And good luck!
Thank you, your understanding and support mean a lot to me.
i wish the best will happen to you from now on and take your time to recover
Thank you, I appreciate your kinds words
