If it's related to the phone, IIRC few people were able to reproduce that and the only option is to ignore.

- Start date
Still no exact date, or even a crude estimation. That's a classic BlueCat right there.

Not entirely fair IMO. Early in the merge process he 1) made it clear he was reluctant to give exact dates because of what happened during week 1 merge, and 2) made several estimations. The fact that the estimations proved to be spectacularly incorrect probably made him reluctant to do any more of that, too.

Well, it was a good game wile it lasted. R.I.P. Ecchi Sensei. Off to Recycle Bin Oblivion you go.
It is not in english. can't read it (week 2)
The prompts are not. The rest is in english. So I have no idea what I am responding to.

An estimation won't hurt, you know. It would be nice even. If they couldn't fulfill it, just communicate it. Be honest, something that BlueCat has been missed all along.

Given the reaction of people when estimations aren't met, yeah, it does hurt in a way. The traffic here doesn't not encourage one to take a chance with an estimate.

I agree partially that devs giving an exact estimate can cause issues. If I were a dev and planned to release an update in 30 or 60 days, I wouldn't give an exact date either. That is just asking for complaints if anything happens. I would just say, I plan on releasing something in the next 2 to 4 months.
However, if I had a game on hold* for 10 months, I could at least say, an update is expected in the next 3 months, or the next 6 months, or the next year, or whenever. Bluecat can just take his best estimate, add a few months, and then make that the target. But to have no idea whatsoever? What has Bluecat been doing all this time?
But other than saying "soon" back in November, he has never given his Patron's anything other than meaningless or demonstrably false claims of supposed "work", without making any concrete statements about actual progress. He hasn't even released a single image, line of new dialog, or even comments about plans for the story.
If I read back all his status updates, the most specific thing I can find is that unspecified updating of coding is happening, and that they are updating some graphics in the main menu screen. And something about recoding the RenPy engine, which I don't take seriously as it is totally ridiculous. Next we will hear that he is inventing his own custom image compression format so he can reduce file sizes better than .jpg or webp. Anything other than actually working on the game, and making new content.
* Despite the forum criteria, this game is on hold based on zero evidence of specific progress in 10 months.
Probably none of the forum mods will chime in, but after 10 months of a whole lot of nothing, I am truly curious how long this game will be considered by this forum to be in active development. If a dev says he or someone else is generally working on the game, but never shows any evidence or estimates for release, and never actually does anything, forever, will it ever be put on hold here? Could Bluecat just give the same gibberish sounding status updates every 2.5 months for the next 5 years, and avoid the abandoned or on-hold tag?
I still remember that Milfy City was finally marked abandoned a few months ago, after several years of nothing, and shockingly, the dev quickly came up with an update after only a few weeks. Amazing.

That's the thing I don't understand. When they are basically waiting for the programmer to finish, maybe work a bit ahead and create graphics for the next week releases, create new characters and so on. Right now I'm 10% confident that there will be another release. If there were regular status updates with actual content, this number would go way up.
Quick question... Does the Week 1 DM patch work with the week 1 compressed version? I don't want to download either and find out they're incompatible.
EDIT:
In case anyone else has the same question... Yes, it works with the compressed version.

In current situation with their programmer being a bottleneck coz works as slow as pregnant turtle - it's pointless and BC prefers post random stuff not connected to the game in his public DS instead work off ass to bring several updates ahead.

(from BC's last post here)
(from Update 20)Bluecat said:
Bear in mind that BC still has 12 T7+ patrons. So if he was lying about this we're not just talking about a dishonest dev but a bona fide conspiracy.
Also, FWIW
Though IMO that's practically self-evident given the current state of affairs.

Nowhere, because it doesn't exist. And whether or not it will ever exist is a matter of... some debate.

Actually, it was pretty good. I just couldn't help but comment.It was an attempt at understatement for comic effect.

Yes but some work is necessary. IIRC...
Easiest solution is to copy the last save from one 'install' to the other,
[Week 1]\game\saves to [Week 2]\game\savesIf you deleted Week 1 'install', go to the
You must be registered to see the links
and look in folder Ecchi Sensei (not Ecchi_Sensei, that's for Week 2).
