I mean I have been more on the positive side tbh but this is quite disappointing now. First Releasedate wasn't met by 2 weeks (and more depending on when the Party content actually gets added), then he made the decision of releasing the first finished part (since the rendering took way too long) THIS saturday 100%! I mean since it just was the render queue for ALL of the content everything else was completely tested and finished right? Normally I'd expect to upload it as soon as possible and post it on subscribestar. 8pm GMT already felt like a late time for all the delay that has happened yet I TRIED trusting in this announced 8pm release. Here we are, nothing at all. Dev is offline in Discord for nearly the whole day, no update after the deadline has passed and yeah. At some point it's really tough defending the whole thing. If it wasn't a last second stretch because the missing content Render queue got finished today it's a big disappointment for me. This should've INSTANTLY dropped on 8pm GMT latest. I just don't get it and again: I tried staying positive and somehow trusting the process. But what is this now?

The complete insanity of breaking over and over again their self-imposed deadlines is what kills me man. Reminds me of my younger days when I was thinking I could become a writer by writing bad fanfics and posting online. I kept leaving notes to the 3 readers that "next chapter is coming soon" but they never did. Distinction here is I did it for free, was not leading on people for the benefit of taking their cash.

Nah c'mon. For all the delays that have happened and the trust/patience MANY of the discord members have shown it should have been top priority to make this release as easy as possible. He made the decision of releasing the first part earlier 4 days ago. And as far as I understood everything was done and polished, just the render queue in his way. So upload could've happened like 4 days ago when the decision was made. I don't know if you can release updates on a certain time on subscribestar (like releasing a YT video on a certain schedule) but since the content is done it definetly could've been uploaded, a detailed changelog could've been prepared and boom, click the button (if a scheduled release is not possible on subscribestar). I can be extremely patient and understanding when it comes to particular situations but this here is pure frustration.

Expect another excuse. Looks like this time a hater stole his bike, so Byte walked home and didn't have time to post an update.
But seriously, it's very, very sad.
Instead of keeping his word and trying to regain the trust he has lost, he continues to make things worse with his actions, constant lies, excuses, disappearances. In this way he will lose the remaining small audience that has been loyal to him all these years, followed him, and supported him.
This was the first game I supported. I watched his discord channel every day, I shared news from there with you, to help him somehow. I`ve been loyal all these years and I had high hopes for this project.
It's a shame I won't see Sophia, for whom I followed the game.
After so much lying, delaying, and making ridiculous excuses, you deserve all the hate you're going to get.

Is that what he said on the Discord? there was nothing more to do other than uploading it on MEGA and sharing the link and he failed even that. He said he was done with that part two weeks ago!

Yeah not gonna happen. I'm starting to ask myself if this update is even existing. There is no freaking excuse this time. According to him ALL was done. It has been tested, it has been polished. Failing to upload this after all that has happened regarding this update is an absolute joke. There is no defending it this time. "This Saturday 100%." "Chill guys it's still morning here, dropping it around 8pm GMT."

That didn't age too well. I really tried trusting the process even if it was pretty rough with this one but I guess some people really don't want to learn.
