Probably no new updates because they're stuck pandering to the requests that got us stuck in this quagmire in the first place lol. Man, sad to say this one went downhill hard and fast. There's a possibility it could recover, but I doubt it's likely (heck we don't even know when it will be finished at this rate)
And yeah, before someone starts cracking wise, I did support the dev for a good while before bowing out due to stagnation for basically no reason

Having tried to work with EUG directly and tertiarily for over a span of ten years now in different ways (and he wouldn't remember a second of it, bless), the dude is a nuts narcissist. It was pretty evident in the directions his stories/games go (which I personally enjoy), but then trying to do anything with him, be it collaboration, feedback, etc. - is like talking to a wall with a completely fabricated ego that could rival some US presidents. The way he tries to spin a story that makes him bereft of any responsibility every. Single. Sentence. No self-awareness or ownership of completely dropping the ball on any work pushed me away years ago.
Had a stick up my ass this morning remembering the original hypnosis story (go look on OFB, it's an old one) to check to see if he'd released anything, and nope - an entire-ass year later, and nothing on his flagship, and close to a year on his secondary project. While ranking in bank. Any person with half an ounce of development or writing experience can tell at best he's inept, and at worst trying to pull the rug over people's eyes by claiming all sorts of work that, at his level at this point, should not be failing even remotely. From what I can tell, he reposts fan art more than his own work nowadays. Sucks, but also poetically hilarious that a dude who wrote stories about controlling a harem and gaslighting girls... really seems to have just wanted an online cult of white knights to support his nonsense. *shrug*
I think for myself the worst part is that he's started a shitty modicum of work that other VN devs are blowing out of the water. Plenty of other fetish writers and devs get literally 10x-100x the work of EUG done, and what they do has some real soul in it. They deserve the money and support by miles more than his pathological lying nonsense.

Your whole post is interesting, i'm neutral(or i like to give the benefit of the doubt) but i'm skipping that whole thing(because regardless if it's true or not, i wouldn't be able to confirm or disprove whatever you may say)
but i gotta ask: what's OFB(i'm bad with acronym and when i googled it...it gave me links of Orchestras XD and car-insurance)
overflowingbra.com. One of the oldest BE story sties that's still kickin'. :3
I mean, my experiences are true to me, and to plenty others. Especially there being VN devs who put out way more, way better things that deserve the praise and support. bladerune9 is a great one to keep an eye on. Benefit of the doubt is also usually best used on the people at the bottom, not the douche at the top.

We'll see how it goes...i mean if the guy wants money, he must keep up with the games...or he'll end like ICSTOR or Irphaeus
Me after checking his patreons: oh boi, it will take a long time, he earns enough to have a decent life here where i live(italy)

better check ICSTOR's number of patrons... he still did not release anything but lies and probably have more patrons then years ago when he was actually making game content. ~7600 right now

for some reason it's extremely hard to find other hypnosis games like this and snow daze, where instead of full mind control you just alter their personality and kinks.
very sad that the dev is just chilling scamming their patreons.

I just checked, never played his game so don't know if it's true. But, can you blame him? He makes the same amount of money without working. I've seen people blame the way patreon works as the problem but I disagree, the real problems are the pigeons who keep funding those games when nothing is ever updated.
At this point, I'm seriously considering if we are not living in the matrix. Who are these people who after 6 months with no update stay suscribed to those devs? Why after nearly a year with nothing, devs do not loose a significant amount of patrons? Are those people even real? Is it some massive scam between patreon, the "devs" and the pigeons?

if you ask me? it depends...what if these guys have the lowest subscription and they forgot about it?XD
I mean i genuinely heard/read about a few people actually forgetting about "losing small amounts of money"

It is not only forgetting, also not caring too much. Depending on a persons income they can be fine with losing a few bucks, even if they dont get anything in return.
E.g. I followed a Twitch-Streamer some time ago and they suddenly stopped streaming without any notice (mental health issues). I did not really care too much that my subscription was ongoing, since it did not really matter to me if I lose 5 bucks a month or not, even if they were not streaming for months. Only when Covid came and my income became smaller (I am working in an industry which organizes business events and stuff like taht, obviously those were not happening back then), I cancelled my subscription because then I had to care about not wasting money.
And I can imagine if someone is subbed to the Dev and pays 1 Buck a month or something like that, that they dont really mind at all.

meanwhile me: checking when the stuff i need is on sale and counting every single cent/penny
What is the point of even posting a question like that?
If the the Dev doesn't know with any certainty - no one here is remotely qualified to even take a guess. Best source for info would be the Dev's Patreon page.

and even that "source" isn't very reliable.
At least 1/7th of subscription service revenue is from people who forgot they were subscribed.
Dev's Public Post. Safe to say, it will much longer for next release

Nobody knows (the trouble I've seen), nobody knows, but Jesus~
No, seriously. Nobody has any idea if if drops tomorrow, next week, next year or in the next reiteration of our universe.
