Hi Jay, not trolling you, just saying, I am a coder. I looked at the code and I commented previously, it's not that complicated. It really isn't. What I was pointing out is that there is no way that it should take anything like a year for this simple operation. We are talking about taking three mostly working projects and some bits and pieces and blending them into one. The majority of what is in the 'code' files is text (descriptive or dialogue). I have no vested interest in this project and I am not and never have been a patron, it's a bit sad that it seems to have ground to a halt because I really, really enjoyed the game and was hoping I could have lived vicariously through Matsu for a bit more of the year. I don't believe a word of the propaganda and excuses the dev team keep trotting out though.

I would laugh so hard if they just took Dukez's version and put it out as their own, their "hard work". Hah.

At this point, I wouldn't put it past them to do just that.
I wonder, how much time is left before this will be marked as abandoned?

It really feels like going around the rules. Bet we would see much more activity should the game go abandoned. Icstor style.
The mods should let us vote if this should go into abandoned tag.
it wouldn't be a good enough proof of life, this situation is nothing new, as already stated by Kulman

It's neither "On Hold" or "Abandoned" because it hasn't hit the prerequisites required to get branded with either. If you think those prerequisites are too lenient, take it up wit the mods and stop asking the same questions over and over.
I was so onboard with this game, actually seemed pretty decent, and has been so far imo. But I knew this was going to happen at some point when I first saw the whole "this game will feature 365 days" thing. I think we all knew it really, it was never going to hit 365 days, but I thought it would get a little further than this before seeing the huge development gaps (assuming this gap closes and it doesn't just get dropped officially).
It's a shame really, and all of this isn't even for content, it's a cleanup merger with bug fixes, or at least it was last I checked;so they can't use the "so many screensh- I mean renders to render you guys" excuse that certain other people like to use to keep some patrons hooked. Honestly I'm sad to see it happen, a true shame. Rip month 1, you're missing a few days anyway, but rip all the same. Maybe it'll get revived in time for the next hot covid varient we gonna get, who knows, hopefully I'm made a fool and they slam out an update shortly after I post this shit, that'd be nice.

Hmmmm. According to lewdpatcher the darkmind patch is supposed to have some readmetxt to explain how to install the patch. I'm playing week 1. When I DL the week 1 complete darkmind patch, there is no readme, and the files just look like the game. Can someone help with install instructions for the patch please? 
Do I just merge everything over to the game? There is a lot of stuff in the patch.
Hmmm, there is macOS and linux stuff in here, can I delete these files if I'm on windows?

Doubt it, would be hilarious though. There's a bunch of small changes they probably wouldn't pick up on though if they did do it so who knows maybe I'll look at what they release for fun. Kinda curious to see their new save thing now anyway.
Paste the files over the standard game. Yeah it's a silly way of doing it.Hmmmm. According to lewdpatcher the darkmind patch is supposed to have some readmetxt to explain how to install the patch.

Even if we get 20 years with no updates it still won't be marked as abandoned as long as he posts on Patreon every few months. Even just posting that there is nothing new to report seems to do the trick.

I defended the dev in the past but 14 months without an update is just unacceptable.
Sounds would be cool, but I'm OK without them. How does everyone feel about the slider though? I don't really like the slider and would prefer they kept it the old way.

I don't really understand why there aren't sexy sounds in the lewds after all this time. They are pretty easy to do, especially for Japanese games, there are tons of hentai sound files out there. Honey Select Lewds are kinda boring without them.

I believe it's a time thing as they would have to go back all the days and meticulously add sounds to everything. Usually, creators tend to avoid things that would delay their launch if they can so most games avoid sounds.I don't really understand why there aren't sexy sounds in the lewds after all this time.

I just want an artist to retexture Matsu's dick so it doesn't look like a Neapolitan popsicle.

Because they want $$$ for adding thatI don't really understand why there aren't sexy sounds in the lewds after all this time. They are pretty easy to do, especially for Japanese games, there are tons of hentai sound files out there. Honey Select Lewds are kinda boring without them.
, when they exceeded the goal on patreon to add sound (and surpassed it by a wide margin 10k+) they did not add it and now that they are below I do not think it is a priority for them.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.

Well shit, that's a bummer. Guess I will pledge when they make it a priority, doesn't sound like they are doing anything else with the game.Because they want $$$ for adding that
Speaking of sound, how do you get the music to auto play for week 1? Having to go into the music player and click on each track every time is annoying as hell.

I think the music is broken, and is one of the things meant to be fixed in the merge.Well shit, that's a bummer. Guess I will pledge when they make it a priority, doesn't sound like they are doing anything else with the game.
