I just registered to write this. I don't know much, but it seems that every well-known adult project on RenPy goes the same route: they started with the biggest of plans, then after some time they restarted the project or just abandon it.
It happens all the time because from the very start of a project so-called developers are determined to earn as much money as possible while putting as little effort as possible.

I know this IW game for like three years. I check on it from time to time. there is no gameplay, and any iteration of the plot is still not engaging - I tried both (or how many of those?) versions. people still play adult VN for adult stuff, not for the tones of boring text. I believe that text could be engaging, but you have to put a real effort in that. as for IW, it seems that all real work assets they have are graphic artists. take them away, and what's left? on the other hand, they don't have much beside art. everybody knows that, but still such developers pretending they 'developing' something. ridiculous.

over the years they changed the plot, they added some unnecessary paraphilic nonsense like vampire, mermaid, elf and old woman. "hey, everybody remember Maggy Smith and her iconic character? let's rejuvenate her for 20 years but left her with silver hair, and there gonna be sex with her!" seriously, are you lost your mind? what else this game is missing? futanari? sexual interactions with Neville's grandmother (I actually don't know if she's in the game already)?
we have Hermione who's actually is an epicentre of anything sexual regarding HP world. do they have any sex scene with her yet? or there are still panties flashing?
do the devs afraid of sex stuff?
as long as people allow to milk themselves, they're gonna be milked. I believe we'll see the actual games if everyone would buy a finished product and wouldn't use those subscription and donation schemes.

update:
just wanted to add that my favorite character in this game was Sonya. and that is beyond ridiculous because she's not even in the plot! she's something that occupied MC's mind! this games was badly designed from the start because they added a character whose sole role is to give advices to a player of how to proceed in the game! and not only that, they added two mini-games strictly for her - the Memory thing to earn some credits, and the Dressing thing to spend those credits. amazingly designed!
and the reason why I like Sonya is her body. she looks like a real appealing girl, while every of their so-called main girls (apparently not, given how much focus they have) have big boobs. you have a fit girl with big boobs, you have spoiled version of Hermione with ridiculously big boobs, you have a fat girl with big boobs and you have a curvy girl with big boobs.

My guess is that story progress is waiting on the story writer(s) to continue, and most of the other stuff in that update is created by the artist(s). Only thing that makes sense.
More realistic answer: they're milking profitable project.

This is the second game I came across with where the developers are removing scenes(content), not the other way around. Well done.
not removed, those old scenes aren't on new version's memoires (yet/never since as they happened in old/old old version didn't happen in new version).

not defending devs.

What is the other one? I know of Summertime Saga and Scarlet Law.
ask that via pm so ren nan doesn't have to advertise.

Hello, wizards and witches!
We’re thrilled to share some fresh updates about our game and the exciting new features we’ve been working on.
Over the past month, we’ve been running polls in our Discord channel to get a better understanding of what you, our dear players, want to see in the game. One of the most frequent requests was for new outfits for the main girls. We’ve heard you, and we’re excited to introduce new stockings for your favorite waifus.
Previously, we showcased new stockings for Hermione, and now, all the other main witches have got their updated stockings and tights too. Check out the art below featuring Luna shyly showing off her cute new stockings. Along with this update, we’ve added new hand and skirt positions. This allows players to appreciate the witches' charms in greater detail and opens up new customization options. This is just the beginning of expanding the prefects' appearance options, with more to come as the storyline progresses and as the protagonist grows closer to the Head Girls.

Currently, we’ve completed the implementation and testing of the main side quest for patch 0.11B. We need to add the Live2D animations for the scene with Minerva in the first chapter of the second act and include some additional side content. After that, patch 0.11B will be ready for release.
We’ve also finished the work on expansion for the interactions with the Elf-maid in Act 2 Chapter 2 which is in sandbox at the moment, meaning that the side activities are available there while the main plot will come in patch 0.12A. These interactions with the Elf-maid consolidate the available customization options with her, such as changing her name, changing her clothes and the choice of clothes that she wears when she cleans up in the office and the bedroom. Additionally, the intimate scene with her will be available for replay during this interaction, and the scene itself will feature a small but interesting addition that was not present before to freshen up the scene :)
Work is also ongoing on the script and texts for patch 0.12A. We aim to finish this part and the texts for the entire chapter by early July (3rd-4th). One of the events introduced in patch 0.12A will be the development of the event in the Abandoned wing's bathroom, which has piqued players' interest multiple times in the past. This event will pleasantly surprise you with the participation of existing characters, showing them in a new light.

In patch 0.12A, we’re also adding a quest to find collectible cards, which can be found in addition to photos. These cards are a reference to the chocolate frog cards from the HP books and movies, but with an erotic twist. Players will be able to collect these cards, and also get acquainted with a certain eccentric student. We’ve had a glimpse of her in a side quest before, and now she’ll be involved in a new mechanic for unlocking cards of great wizards. Besides collecting cards and photos, players will be able to enhance them, revealing their hidden potential.

Additionally, we’re almost done with the event in the potions class, where Marcus will substitute for Snape while he’s busy elsewhere. During this duty, students will make amusing mistakes while brewing potions, leading to hilarious and unexpected outcomes. We’ve completed this work for several characters, focusing on drawing hot and funny body positions, emotions, and unpredictable student behavior. We’ve shared some snippets of these funny situations before. For example, Parvati in a hilarious situation trapped by tentacles. Today, it’s Hannah Abbott, affected by a wrongly brewed potion. All of this makes the scenes more lively, interesting, and, of course, fun.

Another quest will allow you to find and obtain new potion recipes, adding even more variety and interactivity to the gameplay.

We’re also planning to introduce new game mechanics and enhance interactions with characters to make the gameplay more varied and engaging. Work has already begun in this direction, and we’re diving deep into interactions with the game’s locations.

And now, as always, a poll:
How do you feel about adding more content with Harry and Ron?
  • Great idea! I’d love to see more interactions with these characters.
  • Awesome, but I’d like to know more about which content exactly is meant to be added.
  • Not sure it’s needed. I prefer more content with other characters.
  • Not interested. I want development of the current characters.
That’ll be all for today, folks! We greatly appreciate you staying around and continuing to support the development by donating and leaving feedback. Thank you!
We’ll meet again soon. Until then, stay safe and have fun!
Peace✌
Your,
Sad crabs.

They really decided to add the cards that artist was making for his Patreon, as a new update feature. I'm speechless.
