Yeah, likely. I just wasn't expecting the mod to do anything with the pics themselves. But so long as it's just two pics that stay barely a few seconds, it's not so bad.

Well, fuck.
I just finished the current version. And right now, I feel like it's gonna be too short.
Not that I think the game is lacking content, don't get me wrong. But if this is already 0.7, that means two thirds of the game are already there.
And fuck, I want more than that.
The game's really good. The characters are interesting, a lot of the subplots are intriguing, while the MC's situation overall keeps enough of a "slice of life" feel to not feel like everything has to end when they get some specific answer.
So I'll just conclude saying I hope you don't plan on just going to 1.0 and declaring the game finished. There seems to be still a lot more potential to unfold the various subplots you started, and I feel like, with one third remaining, it would probably feel like the progression would be rushed to conclusion for some of them.
Can't wait to get more of this.
Now, I'm gonna have to check some of your other works.

and that's where you are wrong, these games don't necessarily stop at 1.0, can continue far far further so 0.7 is like 0.07.

I know. But the way that type of things work, 1.0 is supposed to be the "first complete version", meaning, in the case of a game, at version 1.0 you're supposed to be able to go from the beginning of the game to the ending of it. After that, higher number is content additions to a technically "complete" game.
And I've seen some game have a slow buildup to plots to end up rushing more and more the progression because the devs miscalculated stuff like that.
Which is why I hope either recreation doesn't make huge bump ups in version number, or just isn't that great at numbering version and isn't planning on 1.0 being the end of the story.
Also I loved what I played so much I'd dream of having it go one forever. But that's another issue.

Software versions ARE NOT decimal numbers
.7 then .8 then .9 then .10 then .11 all perfectly fine for software the period is not a decimal it is a separator from full version to sub version or iterations of the first number version (in this case version 0 alpha/beta testing)
It is not that hard

Well yes, but don't forget that most devs aren't software profesionnals to begin with. And since we're taught in school how decimals work, we tend to take it for granted, meaning a lot of devs consider it like that without really thinking deeper about it. It's just how we're taught to think about it.
That's more what I meant earlier. Most devs I've seen usually go from 0.9 to 1.0, so I tend to consider that's more likely to happen than the opposite. recreation can confirm either way how they're using version numbers, which is what I was asking, just not with that exact phrasing.

Oh Jeez! now we are waffling about version numbering systems ... why can't we just stick to the standard: "Update When?!?!?"
BTW, I won't be in for this week's Zoom update call, can someone keep me posted, please?

It is very rare to see a game where version number 1.0 means it is completed, more likely it means the tenth update.

He/she's actually right, I've said it many times before, I go by actual version numbering, not by what some other devs do, but nonetheless, there's still a lot to come.

Good to know, because you could be keeping this game going to the next decade and I'd still be hooked. Especially with precious Ellie.

I can't disagree with you dude. I would also like to play this masterpiece even after few years. This game is too much good to forget about it.

Yeah but unless you're really good at loosing memories, you can only replay so much until you know everything without having to even boot the game again...
And we're not pressuring the dev, we just mean that we love their work so much that they don't have to worry about making the game too long.

You are right, but replaying is not what I meant. I wanted to say that I would like to see that this story gonna continue even after a long time (new updates, which continues the story). Just if you are replaying you still remember the most part of the story, sometimes even whole story (at least it works for me). BTW your option is still good and I am sure I gonna replay this masterpiece.
P.S. Sorry for my english if it is bad

Hmm... well, my 2 cents (not worth anything but throwing my hat into the ring regardless): I've re-read many books (both fiction and non-fiction) that I've personally truly enjoyed more than a handful of times. Do the same for movies and music obviously. A visual novel is no different. So replays, that's only natural if you enjoy the product and one reason why I mod to "pay it forward" and help bring new eyeballs to a product I personally enjoy that might have otherwise never known the product existed.
Bottom line, ain't nothing wrong or odd with studying and re-consuming media you enjoy, you've done it since birth, it's in our DNA as conscious beings. Please enjoy art, be well, and kind to each other. Kindest regards.

Especially since, while the media itself may not change, the person viewing it does. Every day that passes you learn new things, see new things, make new mental and emotional connections, and your personality and worldview undergo slight changes. The you who you were 5 years ago isn't the same person as the you you were 10 years ago, and so on.
So going back and rereading (or rewatching, or replaying, etc) something you've already read (or watched, or played, etc) can give you new insight or appreciation for things even if literally nothing changes. Because you're essentially looking at it through new eyes. You may notice things you never noticed before, or simply interpret things differently.
And that's even aside from reexperiencing something you've already experienced specifically because you want to scratch your own nostalgia itch or try to rekindle the feelings you had in the past the first time you experienced it.
