It's a pity, the project was simply gorgeous at first - but it was worth waiting for, and the change of artist didn't do any good and the project was forgotten!

Lack of any real progress and no money flowing in will kill a project that requires an artist be paid to keep it going.

But the story of this AVN abandonment is longer. This game was developed by a girl during the pandemic lockdown. As soon as the pandemic passed, she went to work on something more solid. Need to roll back several pages to find the discussion about that, I don't remember the details - It's even said that she have an onlyfans profile.
"Why make a game with female protagonist when you could just be the female protagonist."

That's understandable if she wanted to stop developping the game after the pandemic to go back to modeling (I don't know about onlyfans). What is not is her ghosting her patrons for months. At least she closed her creator account at some point.

It´s a dead horse, but again... the model/instagram girl, Joanna, was never the dev of this game. She was just the "face" of that project. The actual dev is a woman, too, called Anna, but she is not a model.

What I understand from what's been posted is that the dev team had an artist and an author. The artist decamped for greener pastures. The writer didn't have the rights to the art, so tried to continue with another artist, only for that to fall flat. That's actually a fairly common way that these projects end.

Ugh, this game was in my top 5 of favorite FMC games. I wish that either by luck be continued or a woman dev made a game inspired by this one.

There is a good amount of content, but it's a slow burn, which would need at least 10 more chapters to have a good taste of it. When things start to get interesting, it's over. Think like you are watching a really good movie, then when it reaches 20 minutes of the movie, the credits roll for no reason.

It is worth a try. There are actually two versions of it and both of them are worth a try.
My very rough estimate is that you will get 1-2 hours of gameplay from each of them which is not that bad.

Realistically the art change killed this game for some people, and it kinda spiraled from there. No offense to the new art, it's good, it's just... yeah.

The lazy developer killed the game. People loved both artists.
The game had plenty of support after the first artist left and the second was hired. And it would have had much more if the developer showed consistency with updates. The problem was that updates were released so seldom (even though after the change they required mostly pictures) that most people lost any interest and hope that the game would not be abandoned. I think the developer pocketed about 25 000 dollars during that period between when the C3 Final was published and her disappearance.
Chapter 4 has been around the corner for over 1 year now and always will be.)
