so here we have 5 people working on this game and the updates are so slow because there are not many people working on the game so that's why we have slow updates.
The problem is deeper than that, the amount of animations for this project are already out of proportions, the pit is a black hole that demands too much work and yet they keep adding new characters, there's also the issue of a lack of advances in other areas, the programming has been stale for a while and the writing is really sparse (it took them more than a year to add a new story). Long story short, I think this project has a lack of organization, vision and planning, that's why the updates take so long
