60k is nothing. Two of the scenes I'm working on right now top 8k and it's only about 15 minutes of game play. Now of course, that 8k accounts for different paths a character can take through the scene based on choices. But in total, it amounts to 8k of dialogue and description. Those were written in about six hours. I do my writing in Scrivener, so that's 8k before I've added in any renpy code.

I don't find 60k to be unbelievable at all.
Yeah people who aren't writers tend to... vastly overestimate just how much 5k/10k/50k words is.

Was supposed to be in august, NOPE, then september, Big NOPE, now 10th October, lets see what other "obstacles" comes for the november delay. Seriously, when are his patrons gonna fucking open their eyes? Do they have a fetish for being milked or what? XD
My $5 contribution every thirty days isn't a large enough sum to make me feel milked. It's like buying a lottery ticket. I'm just throwing it out there hoping that it's the month I hit the jackpot. ;)

So sad that there won't be any Sara content at all :cry:, well maybe in patch 0.7
If he intends to keep his word he would have to release 0.7. at the End of October or beginning of November... so if anything I think he'll deliver the missing Neighbor content, claiming that was the plan from the start... and than if you are lucky 0.8 will actually contain any new content to one of the main girls (maybe depending on a pole)

True. With ICSTOR you never know if the update will take 1 month or 1 year. If you compare with a similar popularity size like Mr dots, you know you'll get one update every month and an exact deadline the first day of making the update.

Does anyone tell you what to do with your money, and if they did, would you honestly give a shit - especially if it was some random nobody on the internet?

Are you supporting him? I assume not since you mention "his patreons", so what makes you think he cares what you have to say - just another random nobody on the internet.

If you aren't paying, your bitching is meaningless. If you are paying, bitching is still meaningless. The only way the dev will change is if his wallet takes a hit.

Feel free to downvote/facepalm, or whatever. I'm sure the circle jerking of dev hate will continue, even though he'll likely never see it, or care if he does.

As an aside, I don't like how he's communicated, etc. So I don't pay. Easy. When the game comes out, it comes out and I'll have lost nothing.

After the last news about the game I am 100% sure that the developer of the game is nothing but a big liar.
1. He said that when he reach the patreon goal he will start making fully animated scenes not looped. The goal was reached last year I think before the Christmas episode and we still haven't see this kind of fully animated scenes.
2. He said that he will release the new update at the begging of Sep. and after that he will keep releasing new updates on every 2 months plus he mentioned what will be in the future updates. I think I have nothing to say, the update is not released and it's already the end of Sep.
3. He put the game on testing for a quite a long time already and after that he said that there is missing scenes and he can't render the new scenes because of crashes (Correct me if I am wrong but I remember that he updated his PC configuration this year may be another lie). So the game is not on testing progress at all he is still rendering and programming scenes.

Almost everything what he is saying is lies. By my opinion this will be the last update for this year and may be the last update for the game. He will keep milking even that he is saying that he will keep releasing the game even for those who cancel they subscription, how that will happen I dont know....

When nothing came out in ten months yet his patron jumped from 5000 to 7000, of course he's not gonna be active as he used to be. Are people really that rich and stupid?

He'd have way more patreons if he worked harder. Like making almost 60k a month

Well he did see it for a while but he said in his post that he got so tired of all the negative comments that he doesn't bother reading any anymore and I don't blame him for that. All the work he puts into a free game and all he gets is a constant stream of bitching and moaning. I'd shut that out too. Personally I don't care if his next update takes two months or two years to come out. Fortunately I have a life and will go on doing the things I always do until it does like work, my hobbies, hanging out with friends, etc. The world isn't going to end if I don't get to play it right away. It's just a game. A great game but still just a game.
