I love how people just come out of the woodworks as soon as there are any delays with a game and they start sharing their ideas of a business and how a dev should handle theirs yadda yadda.

How can you know that adding a third/fourth/fifth person is a net positive and not a net negative? They now have to give away more of their money (doesn't matter what you think of MITY, noone would want or like to do this if they could avoid it), they need to wait on another person's progress, not even mentioning what this new unknown person could do to harm your business, which has been running fine up to this point. They could slow it down, want to add their own twist to it that in turn doesn't fit with what the established fanbase wants or likes... Let the coder have his break. I'm not really in the loop when it comes to the vacation time MITY had in the last years but they were probably working non-stop with the exception of very major family holidays. Find some other Trainer games to distract you, read a book, go outside (lol), play a AAA game, whatever. Let the actual Patrons on Patreon decide if MITY are doing the right thing or not.

My opinion on all of this? I don't like it but I can't change it either. I really want them to finish all of Book 4 asap so I can actually play it (because only playing chunks is something I abhor) but until they do I have a plethora of adult-themed games and VNs that I can fall back on. I could also, and probably will because it's that (wintery) time of year again, watch ATLA&LOK on repeat. Maybe do something like that instead of spending precious gaming/watching/living time on fora discussing something that you can't change AT ALL.
He a big boy. Stop telling other people what to do.

I'm left to wonder - what's the artist gonna do with the extra time, given that the coder is already lagging behind? Work on more content to implement, touch up more on the current workpile and try to improve what's left to implement? Because I'm not entirely certain the coder will be thrilled to come back to an ever-increasing pile of work, towering up.
Burnout sure is a bitch.

News people.



Hello friends, slutty compatriots, coder here!
Things have happened. Many things! I've been writing and rewriting a post detailing all about it for the last few days at the request of the artist. But all it did was make me feel down, reliving some old and some fresh things that I’d rather move past. I don't feel comfortable talking about it all yet, mostly because I have no idea how to relay rough things without coming across as self-pitying or exaggerated. But I’ll try and share some as we go.
The point I want to make is that I'm finally, since what feels like an eternity, starting to return to my old self. It's been awhile. I took some time to revive my creativity and then, among other things, my ankle exploded like a confetti cannon on New Year's Eve. Oh shit, are airport metal detectors going to be a bitch now? …Huh. Anyway, I’m back on it with new ideas and energy and you can expect some results asap.
I can't reward you for your patience with me as quickly as this month. I regret that, because you certainly deserve something for sticking around with us this long. But I promise you that if your patience has run out we will send you a build as soon as it's done, regardless of whether you are a patron or not, once it's done. We'll pm or email it depending on your current patron status.
All I can say is that I think the last few months have been pretty weird for all of us, and settling back to normal routine sounds pretty good to me.
The artist has a bunch to say too but wants to make his own message so whatever he has to say will be posted tomorrow.
Thanks for being the best there is.
Cheers

But the real question here is ... will they get something for the end of November or the beginning of December? Or is it going to move for a super update in January? Taking into account just everything will readjust to what it was like this week.

It probably won't be a mega update considering he said they'll ship as soon as they have something, I'd safely assume a normal release with a 4-5 scenes if I didn't want to be disappointed.

This is what I'm wondering about too. Given that the coder effectively stopped working after the previous update was finished (in early August) and is now starting again from that point, that's FOUR MONTHS worth of art that the artist has presumably piled up since then (excluding the assets for the Halloween side project). The best case scenario would be a December or January update having potentially twice as much content as usual, if they just focus on incorproating the scenes instead of any new systems or minigames.

Nothing ~ i mentioned this before when people say the artist is "still working"

Unless he starts releasing a lot of pinups to fill the massive gap between art and code, then all the "im still working while the coder recovers" is just words, because it will never be proven that he worked on anything, since the coder will be always behind (assuming anything of it is real, because we know patreon devs are experts on making up excuses ~ since they have big fanbases, they know they will never be doubted by them)

The artist probably just finished the build art and chilled for several months

True mate ....will do the same if i was in his situation .This is why I never donate, the patreon creators have to much freedom on them. The ugly reality is that it just some dude that draws porn in his house and the other guy is a low key coder that doesn't have skill or responsibility to get a job in the it-business...other thing is that patreon supporters don't really care to much of money,if they donate 2-5 euro is not a big deal..hell that's how much I spend each morning at work.The real problem is when 1k of dude's come and donate for your passion project and you see that you have 20 k euro a monthly from your project then you become lazy and lose any artistic vision or dignity you had for money ..

I will buy the game when it will be completed...it is a good game,probably the best VN on the market for western audiences..hope the creator next VN will be about Netflix dragon price..It has the same vibe like avatar

I recall commenting here before saying that we'd get an update from Summertime
Saga before we got one from Mity, and someone said I was wrong. Now I am just waiting
to be proven wrong when we've already got the last update from SS and no Four Elements
in sight :ROFLMAO: and here I was hoping to actually be wrong. This was the first game I actually
played years ago which got me into others.
