It's been a very long time since we've seen a new game from Minoto here and a lot of you have been asking me in the comments if I know what is going on with him. Also I'm getting daily mails from people asking me about Minoto. But unfortunately I didn't know what was going on. I mailed him some time ago, without any news, but today I got a reply back so I want to share this with everyone who was worried. He tells me has become sick and is in poor health. So let's all hope Minoto gets better very soon, and perhaps you can leave a comment here to send him some courage. He also tells me he's hopeful and wants to be able to announce a new game in June.

Hope you're feeling much better soon. Look after yourself. x
There is something so simple and sweet about your unique games. They always make me smile and often laugh to see what you come up with. Your games take me away from the troubles of the world and place me in a children's storybook land of fantasy and imagination where there is always a happy or silly ending. I hope knowing that you have brought happiness to your fans gives you strength to bounce back to good health. Best wishes from Wisconsin.
praying for you, Minoto!!
(and thanks, Bart, for the update.)
I completely agree with everyone. Your games are so wonderful and always bring a smile to my face! I hope and pray that you feel better soon. Hugs and Kisses :) There's only one Minoto! Note: thank you Bart for keeping us updated. Hugs to you too!

You have brought joy to many people. You are awesome, man. Thank you for your incredible games.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that Minoto is as ill as he is, but I'm glad he's not dead, as I originally feared. At this point, I don't care if there's another Minoto game or not; I just hope that Minoto recovers. Get well soon!
Get well soon!

Get well soon!
Minoto, I hope you get better soon. Your games are the thing that turns my frown into a smile on a bad day. Now when i go home and i had a bad day, i don't have something to look forward to :( ! Whenever my daughter was sad, I'd let her play minoto And she would be happy as soon as she finished one of your games! Now, We are not trying to rush you.You can take as long as you need to! If anything else bad happened to you right now, We'd cry and cry and cry and cry until we could not cry any more! So you do not have to keep reading this because it is done. Go ahead,get some rest! Love from Georgia,USA!
Thank you very much for letting us know, Bart!
All the best to you, Minoto!
I hope, you get all the support and aid you need, that you may recover very soon!
I wish you a happy heart and lots of love around you!!! :D
Kisses and hugs from Germany

Don't worry about making games for others. Take care of yourself and count your blessings. Many are praying for your good health and happiness. I pray He takes care of you and helps you.
Hope Minoto gets well. :) We all love him and sending our best wishes to Minoto
after all the joy you've brought to us, now it's our turn to wish you the same. be well and happy again very soon!
All true fans will gladly wait until his health has improved to see the next game. We all love his work, and think of him as a friend. I, personally, would never ask my friend to get things done and published when they have personal issues in their life. We all love Minoto, and will wait with baited breath until he feels well again! That is always the most important thing! <3
Everyone loves Minoto so everyone loves you for making them!
your work wont be forgotten
Get well soon!
Sending all the best to Minoto. My thoughts are with him.
Dear Minoto,
it was rare not to find your weekly game arround here. I hope also you´ll get well soon, and if you need more help, I can give you Reiki.

Sending my best wishes to him, hopefully he'll get better soon!
Get well soon Minoto! Your games are the best distractions from our busy lives. Hope to see you posting games soon!
Hope Minoto gets well soon!
I hope that all the fun he gave us, comes back to him 10 times bigger, as a very strong force to help him get trough this difficult moment. He helped me while I was in a serious treatment in NY city, and his games relieved much of my sorrow and pain, that time. please receive my personal and special thoughts and prays!!!! I hope this period goes away very quickly!! CFSM
CFSM = BRAZIL

It's the 22th of august today, and there's no sound about him. I'm worried and wonder what kind of illness it is.

It has been a long time now, since we have heard about Minoto. Do you know if he is doing better? In May you wrote that he hoped to have a new game out by June.Unfortunately that didn't happen.Please give us an update, if you have one.
Ted
Sorry, but I have had no more news on Minoto...
As soon as there is news, I will surely post something on the blog!
Dear Minoto,
Thanks for all these good games.
I played the game of May 10 minutes ago thinking about you.
I truly hope you're recovering health and forces. Take care of you.
Sincerely,
Aude
UPDATE: I got a message from Minoto saying he's doing fine now! So that is good news! And he's working on his new game.
Great!!! :)
