I skipped 3 updates and from the content of the comments it is better to wait longer since there is still no sex scene with the mother
If the dev's a prisoner in a gulag, you'd think there'd be that much more incentive to imagine and create sex scenes....my wild guess is, that this is not a private dev but a gulag production with more then one game. they often get only 3 pages of story to get started and then see what horse gets in the race.

It's not just you. If I saw any game that claimed to have upwards of 70 "Acts", I would be expecting to be playing that game for the rest of my life. Never would I consider I'd be done with it in a single afternoon.This dev's misuse of the term 'acts' in the changelog is really kind of triggering. Is it just me?
The updates on this are short. There is much criticism around for that.If the dev's a prisoner in a gulag, you'd think there'd be that much more incentive to imagine and create sex scenes....
While I actually support Quonix, I'm not so invested, that I have a complete image of his situation.I skipped v0.13, 14, 15 & 16 by the looks of the comments and changelog I needn't bother with this update either. Sad when you see these kinda updates, rather than doing animations dev should focus on the real renders instead of the 150-250 we been getting...they're good animations and renders but this been going on since the lockdowns of 2020 it is getting a bit much now, over $2000 a month

I for one have the impression, Quonix wants to tell a story. So there is the element of sex, but it is not intended to be a romp/slideshow, but sex wrapped up and backed up by storytelling.
While that one is a little rough and I get the impression, that it is that way, so you get enough sexy time despite the small updates and/or because of the storytelling skill/requirement, it is there and it seems to be less missing incentive, but what fits the current point of time in the story that dictates what there is in sexy time.
Just mindlessly adding sex encounters with the family members wouldn't be what this game is set up to be anymore.

(So if my perception is wrong, please tell me, everyone.)
The updates being small and this being a general trend have come up several times now though.
(So I just picked your post ShiroOkami2 , because it was the latest)
Different than other games, this one is not only pretty consistent with updates that aren't bi-yearly.
If I remember right, the update size is too.
As far as I know, Quonix has no team and does this in his free time. This means, there is only that much he can do to increase his output without going full-time or expanding.
Right now his Patreon is at ~2200€ a month. Assuming no failed credit cards, that is 2100€ after Patreon fees. I have no idea if he pays any taxes on this, lets's assume he does at around 33%, just because this is a complex topic and will much likely differ from country to country. That means he gets ~ 1400€ of which I assume 100-200€ going towards electricity, assets, and such.
Even if he wanted to do this full-time, that wouldn't be sustainable if he wasn't getting like 2-3x times that reliably. He'd also be self-employed, which might come with higher insurance costs and the need to compensate for sick leave, vacations, and reserves for hardware and such. Taxes would definitely be higher, at least where I live, so 3-4 times the money might be a more realistic mark for this, depending on where you live this might vary of course.
Getting help would mean paying someone else as well, which might be possible, but the added administration would also take away from his time again, and I wouldn't want to have to manage other people and business relations in my free time.
And if you keep this up as a 'hobby', you want to keep some time reserved for family and RL, so besides getting some better hardware to reduce actual render time, there would be nothing he could do about his output - and even that might not help at some point due to the time he needs for script writing and stuff as a possible bottleneck. Regardless of the money, he makes from this.
The hobby part is controversial even if you don't do it full-time as soon as you accept money for it, on the other hand, accepting money to help with your expenses doesn't make it a job, and why would you just shut down your Patreon after getting your electricity paid for?
Yes i liked this game too, especially in the beginning but lately we can see that the dev is quite fighting to make things work and so many things sound weird, many short updates where not much happens and the aunt is acting weird, nothing looks natural. It looks like a porn movie with bad actors. I liked the story when the realtionship between the brother and sister was quite a taboo but now it's becoming mundane. When the aunt showed up by her sister with cum on her chest and made her taste it, i was baffled that mom didn't recognized the taste of cum. That scene could have been really spicy but it just end up mundane with no fun at all.i really like this game, i really like the story and the direction it's going, but i have to concur with a lot of people's complaints. the updates are super short, especially if you're a fast reader. maybe if the dev didn't create a render for each piece of dialogue they'd be able to write more and animate more? just a thought.
