There seems to be a new progress update posted on patreon. Is there anyone here that could repost the contents of that post for the rest of us to see?

I'd prepare yourselves for bad news, as it seems to be about the Github thing based on the little bit of text Patreon is showing to non-Patrons like myself. It could be a misleading lead in to good news, but that seems unlikely.

Envied. I miss the days when I didn't assume the worst. Time is a cruel mistress, and she doesn't respect the safe word.

Hi Guys!
It's time again for a new state of the Nation status report.
Those of you with access to #gitlab-notification in Discord might have seen that new revisions have recently been made to the calendar and the Ecchi Phone 2.0 (or is it 3.0 by now?).
We are also working on the translation files for the Charinfo and its functionality as a whole.
Some of you have asked me why we not just release Month 1 but instead keep wasting time on “pointless” features.
Well, for some might the features be a waste of time, but for others, they are a big part of what makes the game what it is.
Even if we'd give up the features, that would only marginally speed up the work since the big challenge lies in Ren'Py itself — It's necessary to disassemble the core code of the engine because of our new storage system.
Still, we're making progress, and to all of those out there who, like me, want to see new Ecchi Sensei updates, times are getting better, I promise. We will be back to our usual rhythm after Month 1, and we will be giving out monstrous updates again.
To be able to present you a playable Month 1 version as soon as possible, we will proceed to work our asses off.
So long,
Blue

I confess I was woefully unprepared for anything this disturbing.
Thanks for making this post. It's much appreciated.

What does that mean exactly? I don't really understand.

Well, re: your advice about being prepared, the idea of them re-engineering the engine isn't something I would classify as good news, so...
Yes, unironically they would have saved MORE TIME if they remade the game from scratch using the original dialogue and renders rather than doing this insane process of hacking the save system together.

My advice that nobody asked for?
forget about this game altogether. If you happen to ever see a new update in future, then you have a nice surprise. Otherwise, you don't stress about some silly game on a forum. The way I see it, win-win.

Yeah, with 20/20 hindsight, it probably would have been.
The bit of the code I looked at quite some time ago was a mess. Every decision you made was tracked in a variable like d2d17 for day 2 decision 17. It makes for an extremely large data set that is non trivial to read and understand. I could see them wanting to restructure that part of the game.
