No, just slower progress since MrD and his team must develop 2 games instead of one.

We really need a post easy to be found for everyone to stop the same questions and wrong statements reoccur every 3rd post -.-
But have there been such a post or statement?
What I've see is one week, Mr.Dots issues a strong statement with "will finish DMD no matter what" written in bold letters. I had so much respect for him as a creator for sticking to his original creation, and with such a strong statement. Mr.Dots have up and till this point been consistent with his posts and the wording within them. I all fell apart the very next week, with the "we will have to focus on the new game instead". Despite what the team is up against, that is just a total 180 in my book. Leaving only vague assumptions in its stead.
Also from a creators point of view: I've already seen how little weight 'no matter what' holds for him/them. So what will stop him from continuing on Melody after the first release? Commenters on patreon seems overexcited for every new melody-information he throws at them, to a point where i think the ass-kissing is just sickening (sorry, but my interpretation of it), and it's been explained how important the economical aspect is for the teams future. Could be wrong about this, but I really dont see the new game failing at this point. Patreons are excited. Past experience makes the next game able to start out stronger, and the team is able to correct past story-mistakes. Reuseable assets. And so on
if Melody is a success; "hey, people like it. Lets continue". If Melody is mediocre recieved; "Not good nor bad. But we can work with it. It's safer than going back to DMD"..
To many pros for continuing the new project, unless he really true to his first announcement. I would have hoped for a comforting message about DMDs future at this point. Yet nothing, and it seems more and more like an eternal kickstarter-game where fans keeps it artificially alive for a long time to come.

*edit: I hope time will prove me wrong.

For me the two characters showing the most vulnerability with MC have been D and Jennifer. I have hopes both Georgina and Elena will yet to have those moments in DMD. Without vulnerability for me you don’t get to an X-factor in a romance VN.

D then has had much more screen time and thus much more vulnerable moments. D is much more womanly and this will attract differently than Jennifer; but if Jennifer had the same screen time, some might find Jenniffer with the bigger x-factor imo.

Without seeing Melody “in motion” she has two differences with D that may make one’s reaction to her different from the position as a male (or at least two that make me react differently): (1) D is considerably shorter than Melody (for me it make a vulnerability difference); and (2) D has a rounder face than Melody (for me it makes a femininity difference).

I am hopeful that, once we see Melody “in motion,” most will get X-factor out of the (hopefully) complexity of facial and body actions and reactions in her social intercourse with the MC and others. She has vulnerabilities that I can’t describe, because, although scripted, I don’t know how they will ultimately play out on the screen.

I’m hoping she will have a balance of strength and weakness in her that could be likened to a cross between Holly Golightly and Hermione Granger, but who knows until all the elements come together and it gets played out in the first 2-3 releases as the character unfolds.

(Meanwhile D of DMD for me probably will still hold the bigger X-factor for me as her height and body type - and her height difference with MC - matches that of my own lady of 20 years - who, btw, is 2 years older than me. So when I see D from MC’s view, I get echos of my own lady looking up at me. Oh yes, and my lady has a similarly round face.)
Yeah, I totally hear what you're saying and I'm reasonably confident in the writing team's ability to write a story that will be compelling enough to make me way into the game. But the first time I saw D, just as a screenshot, something about the cuteness of her face (her chest probably didn't hurt either) just made me go "I have to play this". Melody doesn't quite do that.

And from reading this thread, you might be right about Jennifer, though I never really found her or Elena attractive at all. Georgina and Margo are the only ones in DMD aside from D that I really find visually interesting. (Oh, and the mom, but her personality isn't quite...)

Since we're near the top of a new page, let's make an announcement before the question is asked on page 859: hey guys, we don't yet know when version 0.18 will be released. Mr Dots has not announced any release information.

edit: whoops. meant 0.18, sorry.

UPDATE

I've just tried from another file host and this too is resulting in a corrupt file. So either there's something wrong with the RAR itself or the app unpacking it. If someone else can test the former. I'd appreciate it.

Uploaded a new . Will keep the link active for a few days/weeks before deleting.

Alternatively if you got the gamefiles already downloaded. Then use 'RPA extractor' or 'UnRen' to extract the images from Archive.rpa

Well,it is a vn. That means story driven game. So if you skip,there's no fun in it. In that case It would be best to just download the image pack.
I know, I played the game before when it was v0.13, that's why I asked how much content there was
