Count Morado
This is understandable, but a year is much faster than a year and a half, which is how long it took to make Chapter 8.
I said at least a year, I didn't say "just a year."
For the record, here are the last 4 chapters and their update times:
Chapter 8 - 16 months
Chapter 7 - 19.5 months
Chapter 6 - 11 months
Chapter 5 - 8 months
That's an average of close to 14 months.
You should not expect anything less than one year from now. It could be 14 months, 18 months, 22 months... it could be 10 months. But you should not not expect anything less than a year.
At least a year.
It's a game that naughtyroad gives away each update for free to everyone.
It's a game that is filled with quality narrative, choices, images, and more with a lot of content with each update.
Ergo, it's going to take a significant time for it to be developed.
And if you find it difficult to wait, there are 20,134 other games on F95 to help you keep your mind off waiting. Or, there are so many other things in life to do than play adult games to pass the time.
