Of course! What would have surprised me other than keeping his promise. Well, we'll see if update comes out this year or next. Then monkey pox may be even worse and recently I read something about tomato flu. It doesn't get any easier with all these things, that's true.
You don't have to take these percentages into account. They hardly reflect reality. The most accurate release information is always provided in my Patreon news updates. And yes, I'm pretty sure I won't finish it in August. Probably, even if I hadn't lost the last week due to covid, I still wouldn't have made the deadline. So I've already put a pause on payments for next month. But a September release looks more than realistic, even under the worst of circumstances. So no need to argue, I'm still working.
Hi guys, I downloaded the android version linked at the front page, it says package invalid error. Does anyone know what might be the problem? Thanks.
Thank you for your response also is there no way to get a Jade route by herself or does it have to be with Lisa this is my last question

You can't have Jade without Lisa. Jade really isn't into guys as much as girls, and the threesome is more her getting together with Lisa than it is her getting together with you.
It's also why in any version of the story where you don't date Lisa, she and Jade hook up with each other on their own without you.
They always kick you out, but depending on choices you've made previously the tone of how they treat you changes. Basically it can end on a more friendly note or a more cruel one.

Guys, what's the point of waiting? Just take interest in something else. One day you'll be roaming around the forum and, look! There is a 'complete' tag on BaRS.

Nope, if you go back a thread page to page 657 you can see dev is still active just look for post #13,128
hard working on it for a year without any updates, just telling people "Yeah I'm working on it", is not really enough, but I guess some really believe everything.
I mean, let the dev take as much time as they wish for if that will make the result better. That I don’t really mind.
But what completely bugs me are empty-promises - stating that the game will be finished by the end of August and quoting - “It's a promise to you, it's a promise to myself.” - is totally unacceptable in context that the update is in development for more than a year. Just rather don’t promise anything please, people are waiting for some time already anyways. And they admitted themselves that even without covid they would not make it in time for the deadline. At least they paused the payments, I guess, but a lot of devs would get a LOT more shit for this whole development mess.

Generally because a lot of other devs would start sandbagging long before the game was anywhere near finished, start padding things out with filler, putting out multiple low-content updates, then keep missing deadlines without pausing Patreon at all, and then ultimately never finish at all. Compounded by pushing for a "slow burn" game that barely even gets to anything meaningful before they abandon it.
There's mainly a lot of goodwill here because up until this final update, the track record was really good, and the story as a whole has paid off really well. Even now the game is mostly finished, and just missing an "epilogue" to cap it off. So people are much more willing to cut slack and be a little more patient because the dev is already doing better than 97% of the other games on this site.
Does that mean they can't flake off and leave the game unfinished forever? No, all the goodwill in the world doesn't guarantee a happy ending. But it means the dev does probably deserve the benefit of the doubt more than a lot of others.
Even aside from that, the last few years have been incredibly shitty and disruptive for a lot of people. Actual AAA studios are having trouble meeting deadlines and getting stuff done, it's not surprising that single devs working entirely on their own and crowdfunding projects might occasionally falter as well.
And we're all mostly freeloaders on a pirate site complaining about things we don't pay for anyway.
