You're forgetting the part where some versions won't have any content and will just be technical revisions.
- Thread starter BaasB
- Start date
I have been Lurking here for a while revisiting here like once in every 4-6 weeks but man my frustrations keep building up... I was here before even the remake like way before like from the second update this game ever got... But man where are the story progression. after the remade it haven't even reached to the point where it was before remade... I was here because the story was good the even the old CG were good enough... Heck I still have the version before the remade saved in my PC... Yeah the this new remakes looks good but man waiting for this to get caught up to the story before remade feels like it will take another year or two and my frustrations only keep building up... I wished that I could forget about this game ever existed and only find out about it in like 3-4 years from now on that's still me hoping it would be completed by that time but I bet It wouldn't be ....

Out of all the games I follow — and I follow a lot, really a lot — I think Blurring The Walls is the one that frustrates me the most. Knowing that a game with incredible potential to reach millions of views and that should have five times more patrons than it does is being held back purely because of the developer’s laziness and greed is just disappointing.
Blurring The Walls had the same or even more potential than My New Girlfriend, Moonripple Lake, and others. But it’s being left behind because the greedy dev insists on doing a revamp and has been earning money from Patreon for months without real progress, just recycling the same story, using a few new images and flooding it with millions of AI-generated words (and we all know the images are AI too).
Other devs, after only four or five updates, already have more patrons than he does. It's honestly shameful what Tori is doing, lazy

yeah i forgot about that, also this game still doesn't have gallery and skip to day feature.
my bad, i forgot about this dev beahvior, now it looks like we won't get to the party part before December, heck we might not even get to the party part in 2025.
Here’s what Torimiata posted on discord:
Hey everyone,
Despite working nearly non-stop since my last announcement, I need to push back the release again. The update is coming together well, but needs more time to be properly completed and no point in it being half-baked.
As I transition to having updates with mostly new content rather than remake material, my time estimates have been too optimistic. While some scenes from OG will still appear from time to time - and I do have some CGs prepared that I haven't used - the story is now beginning to deviate more significantly. It is exciting but requires additional development time.
I knew I would face challenges with the bi-weekly schedule sooner or later so I'll post a detailed update tomorrow and share my plans for a better development schedule.
I completely understand if these delays are disappointing. If you feel you aren't getting value from your support, you're welcome to request a refund - no questions asked and no hard feelings. I want everyone who supports BTW to feel good about their contribution.
I wish I could do more but as a solo developer balancing BTW with full-time work, maintaining this pace has become increasingly challenging despite my best intentions.
Thank you for your understanding. More details coming tomorrow after I've had some sleep.

it's going to be even smaller updates that take 2-3 months from now on.

He says you can ask for a refund, and then tries to play for sympathy and consideration, even though he's been dragging this out for a long time already. And he plans to release the same small bi-weekly updates over the next three months, for sure. As long as he can keep milking it, he will.
Starting from January 16th when V0.5.27 resumed updates, it has been approximately 100 days until today, with 5 content updates provided. At least every 20 days, it is difficult to convince people of the so-called biweekly update plan. And the currently REMAKE game content should not be half of the original version. The reality goes against the previous statement that using new AI tools can make development time shorter and more efficient. It's really hard to understand why this game that were once very popular have become like this, and even some game supporters have gone from liking this game to mocking Tori.
I believe Tori has completely wasted 8 months of time, not as he claimed to have been working hard to reset the original version CGs. It's just that he doesn't want to admit it, and the announcement he made also looks like an AI essay. damn

isnt it obvious ? he did nothing in 8 month. that 8 month developement was 1000% lie.
"Hi i'm Tori with your 2028 6 monthly update, I have ironed out some bugs and initiated a new technical upgrade which involves the screen rotating to the right every ten seconds as an unmutable AI text to speech program narrates 32 thousand words of pure drivel to you at max volume!
Stay tuned for great things next year!"

Does that mean your product still in stage of remake after remake and remake? i'm waiting for 2077 then.
The game has never been more popular.
Don't let the vocal minority around here mislead you. Most people simply don't care about drama.
In terms of development speed. It is faster. You need to consider the remake has way more content, CGs and animations when compared to the OG. Velocity is just one factor on the remake anyway and not the most important one.
In other news, I just released 0.5.32v2 to the public.
I am super happy about being able to add animations again and opening up the game to more platforms.
I have also reduced the fluff on the script on this v2. I cut down the script by a good 10% chunk - if not more - to reduce that 'wall of text' feeling. Don't expect that will be enough for everyone but it def reads better when I did a replay today, so I'm happy for now.
I appreciate everyone that takes the time to write genuinely good feedback. It has been helpful.
That's just one change among many other small ones. I wasn't able to clear up the backlog completely but once in a while these types of updates are important to maintain the quality of the game.
You can grab that version over on
You must be registered to see the links
or https://f95zone.to/threads/blurring-the-walls-v0-5-32v2.253456/ if you can't for thread to be updated.If you just want story progression, please skip this update.
Next update will be coming soon™. I'm sad about the delay as I worked really hard to meet the deadline but I need more time.
Dev can be difficult as a part-time solo developer. If, for some reason, this is unbearable news to you. I strongly suggest playing one of the other games out there...
For all the insults they sling at you, they stick around because it's extremely hard and rare to find a NTS game of your quality.
