the updates are rarely worth the wait.
the art is great which is why I bought the game on steam but god damn the development is slow
I remember the devs working on two games at once: this and Overgrown: Genesis. Ironically they used to meet the deadlines for Claire iirc while working on (and eventually completing) their other game.

I think this game would make a good case study as to how making a game's budget via monthly donation services like Patreon can be a detriment to the game's structure and content as a whole. A lot of the stuff they keep dedicating focus to (the Sisters of Fertility questline or whatever it's called comes to mind) seems less like something that needed to be finished before release and more like something that their patrons want more than a finished game and thus ends up being what they spend their time on. If they had been working on the main quest the entire time, the game would be finished by now.
Aren't there like two more areas that need to be visited before the game is finished? And three of the four currently in the game have been there since launch? No shot this game gets finished any time soon, let alone the potential DLC that they make.
For the record, I have no idea what my proposed alternative would be because I understand that bowing to the will of the people willing to invest is how these games get made in the first place, but it is nonetheless a shame.

Thats not the main problem as the backers are making the game happen by supporting the devs its obvious they will dictate what gets the main priority. The main issue is the devs are on purpose delaying the updates or are lazy (probably both) so they can milk their backers up like cash cows since if they finish the game there will be no point for the backers to give any more money. Thats a issue patreon has with its quality control and how dead end projects are allowed to be funded without be updated or anything.
And that's a problem with every game using this pay model. On the other hand before parton and other similar sites the were little to no porn games with western origin. So i think this is better than nothing. At lest these guys have one finished game under their belt and keep pumping updates for Claire's quest. And finaly i like this game. Yea there are fetishes that i dont like - rape ,overused bestiality and so on. But still its one of the games on this site that im interested in.

Games suffering as a result of their content being chosen by patrons is sort of the point that I'm making, though. I think it's probably the case that a lot of games suffer in quality because of the need to stick random fetishes in places or focus on things that weren't supposed to be a big part of the overall narrative.
Again, though, I know that it's how these games get made in the first place, just interesting to consider that they lose something by being made the way that they are.

I have a rather specific question, is there a way to edit the 'filter' the game window uses to resize? When you click to go fullscreen the graphics (text/sprites/etc) gets a bit blurry, which makes me believe it must be using some basic bi-linear filtering or something like that. I was wondering if there was a way through code in one of the folder files to turn off the filtering or swap for nearest neighbor for sharper details. (a way to change the default window size would be appreciated too)

More like that the team is overwhelmed with the amount of work they are facing. They just keep letting the fans adding in new concepts that require a ground up rework to fit into the main storyline. For example, I don't know how the sisters of fertility and the meanageries part is suppose to play into the final conclusion of the game. But it sure needs alot of creative writing to fit in, and I am not surprised if the is still only the same number of writers in the dev group as it was at the start.
It's radically different from having a basic story line figured out and letting the fans choose from a preset selection.
One thing that the devs also seem to not realize is that we fans also want a definitive end to a game within a reasonable time frame. Not hanging for years on end.
Bah just more rape scenes ! Well see you in 4 more months.

Strange i can't see the update post on patreon, despite it being already released on Steam.

The Steam version is a different version of the game from the one here. We have to wait until May at the earliest for this version.Strange i can't see the update post on patreon, despite it being already released on Steam.

And Steam doesn't allow shota so the urchin's questline was stripped out, and was replaced with something else.
