If you didn't, I remember that at least someone had (your message probably got deleted??).
The game will come out when it does, don't stress yourselves out over it everyday! That said, I think it's pretty cute how so many take Mirthal at his word.
Just coincendes after coincidences, he can't help it, honest!

Only hope is - there will be so much content, that people forget about delays quickly. But if 1.0 will have only small additions comparing to 0.31, well, I expect some changes in his patreon account)
It's pretty clear what the additions are. Ivy's art was changed and the Duchess + catgirl get new art.
That plus a lot of polish / reworking, but that won't be noticeable to most players.

Btw game will be 20$ and 250 MB 
Rn all
Might be not worth your money, but we will see regional pricing first, before we know if just US customers got screwd, or everyone else too.

Not gonna make any comment on the game's worth since that's subjective, but please tell me you realise the reason the game has a small filesize is because it's pixel art? You do realise how huge texture files are in comparison, right?250 MB
Edit: My bad, I thought you were saying Aurelia was small , I now realise you were pointing out the filesize increase from v0.31 to v1.0 lol

Post not directed at anyone, just explaining while filesize is low and that 250 mb is pretty huge considering how small the game is in previous updates.
Whats interesting to me is that the filesize almost quadrupled compared to 0.31. Either they added basically everything of what was in the pipeline, including the lose ends while animating every scene since 75% wasn't animated or maybe they done a lot of other things they didn't talk about.
We will see once the game comes out.
Its real simple. Its using Game Maker with low resulution. the amount of art is much higher than most porn games, from what I remember it was 80+ sex scenes combined but that was the old version. They're just only a few kb in size each.

Some of my very favorite games fall in the 50 KB to a few MB range... And for some others that are more in the 100-500 MB range, the music/audio often takes up the lion's share instead. When you don't need absurdly high resolution and ultra-detailed textures, turns out that you can do a lot with very little: the "size of the game" argument feels very specious, especially given that you know what kind of game you're buying in advance. This isn't $70 for 200 GB of the latest Call of Duty, after all, but you can certainly go that route if that's more to your liking.
I do, but Aurelia is not FTL or Steam World Dig with similar sizes, where devs put massive effort into gameplay mechanics etc.
It's a porn game, and it just dosen't have enough content to justify 20$ price tag.
He probably blew game size by some uncompressed audio and redundant assets. It's not like 1.0 will have 2.5x more content than 0.31 we have right now.
I already said before realistically we will get like 30% extra content from 0.31 build. Or less, because 0.31 was produced in 5 years, and 1.0 was developed for 0.5-1 year.
So yeah 0.31+30% extra content aren't worth 20$.
If you look on other games even from the same publisher Aurelia is nothing special, but somehow costs 33% more than their best games? Seems to match right with Mirthal's overconfidence and ego tho

As sanshisan said it has like 80+ sex scenes? I think that's up there with the amount of content in a lot of other fully completed H games.
Ah I see what you mean now, I thought you were calling the 250mb small lol - yeah I agree, a sizeable part of that increase will be due to low optimisation, but we'll have to wait and see.
I mean this is where we'll probably have to disagree on the whole art/worth being subjective thing - but I genuinely think the art quality, writing, character designs and soundtracks in Aurelia are of exceptional quality and the whole package even just in v0.31 is already worth $20 to me. There are $70 AAA releases that have given me less joy, and therefore less value, than this random porn game hasIf you look on other games even from the same publisher Aurelia is nothing special, but somehow costs 33% more than their best games?

Just my two cents anyway, nothing against you not finding the game worth it, but if you're curious where the pricing has come from I'd suspect it's from Aurelia's very high production value.
Don't worry haha, I do a lot of modding of these texture/sprite files (both for Aurelia and other pixel art games) so I'm keenly aware of how teensy they are!
I just misinterpreted SomeoneX22's comment as saying 250mb was somehow small, but I now realise that they were (quite rightly) pointing out how large that is compared to v0.31. As you said in your comment, we'll have to wait and see what that's actually come from lol!

Aurelia production was 150% financed by Patreon
And yeah economy in my country is kinda shit, so neither 70$ AAAs nor 20$ porn games seems right for me compared to people with much more disposable income from EU and US.

To be fair, the moment this game goes up on Patreon it goes up here. Doing an early release would absolutely torpedo the Steam sales. Sure, it's not very kind towards the patrons but it's not really my problem.
I doubt we can compete even with patreon - in numbers. And patreon can't compete with Steam. So our 500 downloads here can hurt only his ege.

The pixeldrain link to 0.31 here alone has over 28k downloads and the thread nears 6m views. And in general, even outside of f95 you'll often find certain patreons having 3 times the favorites on Kemono than they have followers/subscribers. Piracy isn't nearly as niche as you think. I'm not saying anything along the lines of piracy being harmful, I'm just saying it's a lot bigger than what you assume.
Wow, I really underestimated the numbers. Still, more arguments in favor of lowering the price - more likely that someone will decide to support the developer. Well, again, let's see the content first.

I personally think 20 bucks is okay because
But I also can't buy the game so that point is moot
