. Doctor did what they could, but it weren't enough.
Patreon threw a fit over content in game, so Sel made a censored version specifically for them. It went ok for a couple of months, but eventually Patreon banned LiL for good.
Game went on planned (although somewhat postponed because of Patreon stuff) hiatus after this to redo chapter 1 to reflect Sel's upgraded since the start of development skills.
Redesigned chapter uno will be available 14.07 for subs, chapter 3 will start in august.

I was checking back with every update but he seems to have been ignoring, well everyone really, except for the same handful of LIs.

There is a certain amount of focus, but that's pretty understandable- a year in you'd still be in "early flirting" stage with 20 girls instead of having sex with a few.

 

[buff]

I get the story is important in this one it just seems like the balance between the lewd content and story is very uneven.

There's probably going to be even less lewd content after the ch1 rework :-/

It is a great story, absolutely, but I'd like to see the sexual content progress. If I just wanted to read a good story I'd read a great book and save a shitload of hard drive space.

Yes and no, more like it will happen at a slower pace. The purpose of the rework was to slow down the pacing, especially in regards to how quickly some girls threw themselves at you.

Need to edit that "updates twice a month" thing off the front page...

Not really, as this abnormally long waiting period for an update is:

1) An anomaly
2) Clearly communicated
3) Will not happen again for the foreseeable future, if ever.

Also, great banners. I love both of those games. And just in case you didn't know, the creator of OnceInALIfetime is making a new game called Eternum, which is really awesome.

 

[GarbageCat]

I am aware. 57% or some such on the next update. It's actually the next tab over. Wait, I lied, HHG is the next one, Eternum is the one after that.

Not sure about #3 as this technically isn't the first update to not follow the twice a month schedule, just the only one to take more than a month by design.

Still, I agree that the twice a month thing is still accurate because the majority of updates after this will be twice a month even with any further occasional single release system updates, where there is only one update in that month due to the complexity or tedium of something.

At least until such time as the new standard of quality being worked into the early game now becomes less than the current one at some point in the future and the game ends up going through another rework. Not a high possibility, but the possibility of a second rework is there assuming the game goes all the way up to completion given how much longer we have in development (we're not that far in based on what has been said of the intended length and where we are now).

it has been awhile, computer died on me and it took 6 months to fix, looks like alot happened to LiL in that time... cant wait to get caught up

I'd recommend waiting to play this all over again until the next update, which won't be far away. It's an endless amount of improvements and it'll improve the experience by a long way

Weird to compare Selebus, who for the last three months has been consistently posting specific dates, progress milestones reached, preview screenshots of the work he's completed, and even playable builds, to people who have been super vague and noncommunicative about what they're doing and whose stuff isn't seeing the light of day. The release date is next week.

well it seems like its only 5 updates I missed. I'm going to play it as is because I'm a bit sceptical as to what will be changed in the remake. seems selebus's usual schedule got shot. but he was talking about doing a remake 6 months ago so that probably took up a decent part of his time, also read how patreon tried to kill his work like everyone warned him would happen. glad he got away from that toxic site... I guess unless he went back to it.

Huh? Both Eternum and HHG update development status regularly though. HHG not so regularly, it's a unique situation, but Eternum have a standard for hight quality games development cycle of 3-4 or so months between updates and they fill that progress bar consistently.

If it's only five updates, I'm pretty sure that's well outside the bounds of the rework since that's still somewhere in the 0.20s. The rework is only for the early game to bring it more in line with the current standard and slow down some of the girls who were basically ready to jump Sensei's bones right out of the gate or very close to that point. The schedule is only temporarily on hold, it will resume the two releases per month once the rework is out, which is coming this month. No, he did not go back to Patreon and has even sworn off of using it for anything other than a secondary, expendable source of income even when he is not making a game with violating content. To say Selebus is pissed at Patreon even now may be understating it, he clearly holds a grudge of some level that won't be dissuaded easily.

All of the changes in the rework are to Chapter 1, and the rework will at the very least touch the majority of the Chapter 1 events.

This update was initially planned for Feb and March, but the Patreon drama initially prompted him to create a "clean" version of the game for Patreon, which at up all of December, so the timeframe got pushed. What was originally going to be the Jan 15 update didn't release until mid-March, at which point the game went into the rework.

He then realized that the two months he gave himself for the rework was not enough, so what was initially a June 1 tentative release, became a July 1, and now July 15th (and is easily on track to meet that goal).

Chapter 3 starts 8/1, and from that point on we'll be back to the twice a month updates outside of planned vacations (which he's pretty good about announcing well in advance) and mega-updates like the dorm war/beach trip events.

As for Patreon, the NSFW version lasted about two months before they took the page down for good.

I see no confusion in my post.

The rework has been finished as far as content, now he is in the testing and polishing phase set for a 7/15 release as planned. It would take one hell of bad situation popping up out of nowhere to stop him now.
