that's likely part of the reason why there's no 'backup', 'extra', or such, coder. assume he might think up the story as he writes toe basic codes for it, at the same time. you think up something and have that picture in mind, which would go where and do what, and you tell your buddy what pictures you need to fill it.
any extRAR coder would possibly be stuck having to ask what's next for each 5 lines of code, or such.
I think so too. It isn't a question about money, or assets. It is a question about implementation. ,,Can we employ a secondary coder in a way that would be more efficient than our current setup?" and such. I think with a project of this scope, there is no amount of coders that'd speed it up while the original coder is "bottlenecking" it.

I personally think he does plenty enough, writing the entire game, creating gameplay (as much as can be in a ren'py game) implementing all of that, and more. Think about it... All the (or most of the) dialogue, scenes, locations, characters, jokes, etc. are his to write (even without the coding, that seems like a lot to do, and knowing it is a creative process, it is prone to suffer from personal stuff more than the coding itself, in my opinion)

Don't get me wrong, i hate the delays too, especially the last one that lasted months, and Patreon's structure certainly doesn't help, but waiting another week is a small price.

How much of the writing is done by the coder, really? Given that the artist finishes his art much earlier, he is the one responsible for the main arc and even side shit (because where else would side stuff lead then dirty art). Does the artist give the coder just a gist of the story? I doubt it.

I think the coder's writing input is the neverending bickering of two guards, Shady and similar excentricities (remember the pointless multiple choice in the last build where all the options were obscure food?). Maybe we can distinguish the slapstick and meta humor from the rest.

The coder doing the story doesn't change that most if not all delays could be avoid by simply hiring backup, literaly none of the delays as of now were due to a writing block, it was always failing to code a minigame or losing his shit due to a burn out.

Wait, I actually wonder if we might get Izumi later on
Any predictions who we might get as extra characters later?

Considering that Book 4 love route would have been the perfect place to introduce them with the youth potion shenanigans I doubt we will see those designs.
You will get younger young Katara and you better like it mister.
'Younger young Katara' that killed me XD

if there is a scene in this book with Katara (new), toph (new) and Korra like the end of the slave route, I will be very happy, if I have toph (new and old) I will be happy either.

true, but maybe we'll get some pornloves like we did with su and lin
Yes because thats going to go over well.
Your supposedly ever waiting Harem doing porn.
How could people ever misconstruct that.
I can already taste the "NTR!!!" crowds storming the place(and kinda rightfully in this case).
Context matters and thats a really bleak looking one.
