I think what top hat means is, 'please don't be mad at us, but we don't want to say something, miss a mark, then have that be the new thing people talk about. You may say the same thing, or have an opinion on how close we are to a demo if you follow us closely on discord, and get alerts on streams and Q&A from time to time. Since we can't really give an estimate, and potentially ruin our credibility, we must rely on users to compare trollo notes and progress on streams to make educated guesses. I know that sounds like a lot of throwing the ball around, but we don't like it any more than you do. I'm uncertain if we will ever have a 100% accurate release date, but if we do, we'll be sure to mention it.' would be my guess.

Mmm, fairly accurate. We've had enough random weird acts of god setting us back that I'd rather not put a specific timeline down. I legitimately don't know how long it will take, really, if I did I'd be sure to tell you.
However, while we await the main thing we need for the demo, i.e. animations, our coder has been working on the actual mechanics of the game, so a ton of progress is being made, it's just not progress you can play. I know some people are disappointed by that, but hey, just be patient and you'll get your Krystal porn.
Patience, but hey, if you pay for your patience, better, XDDD.
The next image going to be a Krystal sketch spinning around?

It's not really paying for patience, it's paying for the game to be made. If you want the game to be made, you can support us, but making games takes time, I wish we could make it faster for you. I want to play it as much as you do.
I supported the cancelled game "see that my review gave the game 5 stars, before cancellation".
But, as you will understand, suddenly we're faced with a cancelled game and eight months of promises.
Patreon is not an excuse for developers to make games, Patreon is a platform to support jobs and encourage people to make a name for themselves in the industry. But not to pay for the air, which is why we already pay for the bagged potatoes.
The disadvantage is that not all developers know how to use Patreon, at first everything is wonderful and well done... when the bank account starts to fill up, then comes the laziness, the delays, the cancellations, the silence...

Idk, patreon is a way for people to support creators they like. Everything beyond that is just audience expectations or socially-agreed on standards of what the acceptable amount of productivity from a given creator is. I know this site pretty much runs on people getting mad at how little patreon devs release but it's not worth getting worked up over IMHO.
That said, catching up with this thread has me pretty bummed out. I just completed the game that exists and really liked where it was heading. Everything the devs are saying are things I've read in other, abandoned threads and I'm pretty confident this new project is just going to amount to a bunch of smoke and empty promises. Or it might not, who the fuck even knows what tomorrow's gonna bring these days. Anyway, I'm pretty bummed out because i feel like there's not a lot of solid furry games for straight folks without a lot of deep end kink so it sucks that this is doa.

Just my two cents here: i can't afford to be a patron so i don't want to preach to those that do/did pay money for this game - but with so many lazy and simplistic projects going around this site i don't think it's worth getting mad at the LoK team of all groups just because we don't have a demo, you can see just by quickly hopping on their discord that this is clearly a somewhat complex title with relatively frequent public updates even on technical matters like the coding.
While again having no demo and basically no porn yet (for this new version at least) is frustrating i appreciate this approach way more than the monthly updates some teams that cash-in thousands of dollars do consisting in a handful of static CGs with cringe dialogue that look like they could've been whipped together in an afternoon.
Again, I'm admittedly speaking from a safe position, just saying that when i check this thread or the discord at least i can tell there's a game being made

I agree with you. I liked the direction the game was taking before it was cancelled. The art was very good, the animations fluid, the difficulty more than adequate, the dialogs great and fun, and the corruption of Krystal the best of the best.
I doubt very much that the new game will make me forget the old one.
Besides, something I liked is that nobody forced you to do anything, you had the sex you wanted when you wanted, and that made this game different. Like Krystal, you didn't feel violated or forced, you decided what to do according to your desires, and that few games have, hence the big difference in playing as a female character. You're not a whore who grabs at the first thing you see.
In the new game there will be battles and defeats, that is to say, a mixture of Oh, so hero! and RPG Maker game.

You won't forget the old one, because this is the old one. All the characters will remain present, as will the overall feel of it early on.
That remains the same.
You don't have to see the defeat scenes, you will be able to turn those off, and it will all remain by choice.
Quote to answer, you do, but until you show proof of what you're saying, it's smoke.
I'm the first one who'd like to see this game go forward, but still you only making promises about, for the moment, a blank canvas.

That Yanderedev business model still alive and working well it seems.

Hi, wow, a lot has happened since I last checked this game. So it seems there's this whole rework going on, BUT, for the current version (0.8) posted on this thread now, does anyone have a save to view the sex scenes? Best of luck to the dev onwards, I'll likely be keeping my eye out.

Thank you for the good wishes, we aim to make a good game
As for the save... I saw one buried in the thread a while ago, I'll ask in the discord and see if anyone has one.

Here are two for you to choose from that people sent me. Hope they help. In the future we plan to have a gallery function once you beat the game.
Well, after this commercial break, let's see how many months pass until the next image of Krystal in new clothes, uh... sorry... relevant information about the progress of this game. I'll look forward to it.

Just some questions: have you watched the streams from Archie or Kuja? Have you watched the videos from Gizmo? Have you checked their trello or their discord? That's not because only 1 picture was posted on this thread that there is no progress nor updates elsewhere...
Yes, I agree that animations are taking a long time, because they're very ambitious on the quality they intend to deliver, perhaps too ambitious, only time will tell. But saying that only 1 picture was produced is just a lie and plain disrespect for the work the whole team is putting in this project.
Well if you come on over to ye olde discord of LOK you can see a lot of the back end being built, the inventory, maps, gameplay mechanics etc. Sprites for the other races are being made, and animations will follow suit. I actually suggested simpler animations for now on less important actions/background NPC's and from what I heard the LOK team actually votes in favour of that!
Progress, I am going to posit, will be coming along steady this year.
