Amazes me that the amount of subscribers on Patreon has gone back up, and doesn't seem that they have given any new news (though I can't see since I no longer subscribe).

The missing part was some new renders from one of the scene (which pretty much connects the update), that have had to be created so the update finally got the shape we wanted. The only thing right now we have to do, to complete V.1.8 and release it, is to wait for the machine to render those prepared CG's as well as to render also prepared animations and import them. Thank you for your comprehension.


Missing part need 30 days xDD

And the reason for all the delays is that [P and P] started creating their new unnecessary game. There were delays before, but from the fact that [P and P] were busy creating their new unnecessary game, the delays became longer and longer.:)

[P and P] who have never been able to say when their new update will be released and who still can't regularly post news about updates and these people - [P and P] :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: have taken up creating their new game that is not necessary, which no one from the sponsors asked for [P and P] !!!

When, according to the logic of [P and P], with their speed of release of new updates and periodic delays in the release of updates, they should only be engaged in their main game Lily of the Valley, all their attention should be only on Lily of the Valley without being distracted by another. :)

They cant focus on 1 game..1 game!!..still want to make another..pfttt
I can understand your (and other's) frustration at having to wait for a free update to this excellent game, but I can also understand a developer wanting to work on some new after working for almost 5 (?) years on the same project.

(?) based on the 1-sep-2016 date on the initial post in this thread, the actual project start date might of been earlier.

wao few day delay =2Month
If their goal is to build a customer base and consistently grow into something greater while promptly delivering a quality product when promised, then this business model is awful, but if their goal is to put an extra $1000 in their back pocket every month, then this business model has been a roaring success. It’s all about perspective, my dude.

You probably didn't understand one thing Lily has the potential for future updates and development of the game world, and judging by the desktop wallpapers that [P and P] made, [P and P] had ideas and if [P and P] can do everything harmoniously and how to add all these frames to the game. Then the world of the game around Lily will be alive ! And now in Lily of the Valley, the world around is just done, not even close to completion ! And you said that you understand the author ha-ha, I will say so it would be possible to understand [P and P] or another author in a similar situation, but as for [P and P], it is alas impossible to understand him. [P and P] Lily of the Valley is the main game sponsors came and support [P and P] only because the sponsor is interested in the development and further updates for Lily of the Valley. And the fact that [P and P] decided to do their new useless game and yes, the sponsors asked [P and P] to give us a new game. Since all sponsors and fans understand, if you say so [P and P], the updates will be 1 update per year or maybe in 2 years and as a result you will get an unfinished Lily of the Valley and a game that is not started. That's the point, not at the speed of [P and P] to twitch on a new game if [P and P] could regularly once a month or once every two months release an update for Lily of the Valley and there would not be every time (OH, excuse me, we do not have a predictable delay and do not wait another month or another ho-ho :) ) if this were not the case, then the release of a new game would be beneficial and no one would say a word. But the reality is different [P and P] themselves do not know when they have updates coming out without realizing that the sponsors are paying and from [P and P] as always (OH, excuse me) so it's not for them to take on a new game when they can't guarantee a release date for the main one. And here's another thing [P and P] something else I probably don't understand everyone has been waiting and waiting for updates only for Lily of the Valley their new idea is only delays for the release of updates. And if [P and P] decides to finish Lily of the Valley in the near future and all for the sake of his new game, how many sponsors will dump from [P and P] again :). All such trifles are taken into account by the authors and should take into account all these trifles.:)

Except P&P weren't working on LotV for 5 years... It was the time that the FANS WAITED between updates. Whose fault it is that it's been 5 years already? I will never believe that P&P are actually working every day or at least every other day in order to release the new update in 4-5 months. More like 3 months of procrastination, 1 month of doing something for their new game and 1 month of work on Lily. That would make only 2 years of development and 3 years of lazying around. I realize that rendering takes the majority of time because there's not much writing. It's usually 15-20 minutes of content tops (and the majority of time is spent travelling across the map). If they decided to take the amount of time they were working on useless wallpapers and instead invest it into the game itself, the updates could've been released much sooner. If the guy who does 3D renders slows the development, fire him and replace him with someone who can do their job faster! And they charge freaking $10 a month to play their game. I know a lot of devs who also do (better) renders for their games, and their updates have been more consistent and have a lot more content in them, and it's enough to pay just $5 to play their games. Unless P&P have some sort of disability that makes them so inefficient, I can't think of any reason why it would need to take them that long to release one short update. And no, I'm not complaining that I have to wait for free updates. I just know that burnout is a thing, and the longer you drag something out, the less passionate/creative you become which isn't good for any creator, and let's just say it's very obvious that they've lost their enthusiasm. So why not put maximum effort into finishing the game to finally leave it behind?

They also say they've been working on their new game for almost 2 years already if not longer and there's still no playable demo. I'm positive they're just using their new game as an excuse to delay Lily further, because if they release a playable demo, and the fans won't like it, they'd get A LOT of shit sent their way for wasting everybody's time on some lame game that nobody wanted and nobody cares about.
