It might as well be dead. Once the dev decided the get rid of the sandbox option and re-integrate everything into a linear VN he basically completely stopped putting new content in beyond snippets of scene linkages re-releasing the material that everyone had already seen as an update. I was early subbed to this on Patreon and really liked it but had to dump it because it wasn't going anywhere and removing the sandbox destroyed the playability of the more ambitious features of the game. I just popped in to see what had happened to the game and I see that going on somewhere between 6-12 months based on the shots here that the plot hasn't advanced at all and looks to me (without downloaded the latest version) the he is still integrating the old material, if the restaurant scene is any indication. Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. As I said I can't be arsed to download it again to see exactly where it is now, just using the screen shots here as a weathervane.
Ambition is great, but sometimes the great is the enemy of the good. I support making this game into a VN, businesswise, that's where the money is and its just easier to write and code. But what I don't support is two different versions of the same protagonist. Look most of us here are white. I'm white. And I believe all of us would be perfectly fine with a black MC. Or a white MC. What is not okay is TWO. Its increasing the workload and slowing the pace. Successful games
accelerate. Either by quickening the Dev cycle or lengthening the update size.
This game is slowly grinding to a halt. Like you said, the plot has been stuck in place for a year while each update promises to advance it. This is bad for the supporters, but worse for the Devs. It's so frustrating to want to push your story forward and instead be chained to a spot waiting to advance.
It's a great game. The use of powers, the fun characters, the interesting lore and the solid (though few) sex scenes are quite compelling. But we should be at the next chunk of story by now. And if this game wants to succeed, it needs to get to that chunk ASAP.
