Don't know whether Iсstor pays our staff in discord, but they masterfully starting to talk about the another themes if they ask about the delay. I am glad that there are more and more people who say that they refused to support the developer because of his constant postponements.
The animations might be completed at the end of this month, but the update with them wont. You have to realize that ICSTOR will have to test the animations aswell and as we know, the testing team will encounter countless game breaking bugs, that are going to delay the release once again.
So I checked ICSTOR out on graphtreon (tracks patreon accounts) and basically the dude's got a trend of losing a shit ton of patrons at the start of every month, then slowly makes them back up and more. But the October/November switch was the biggest yet as he lost over 1000 patrons and has only made up a bit less than half of that since (550ish in the past 12 days. By October 12th he made back 800, by september 12th he made back 700, so the 'recovery' is less this time)
Wrong. First of the month is the day pledges end. Most patreon pages lose a small percentage of their patrons only to regain it again in the next few days/weeks until the end of the month, after which the process repeats again.
Have you been to the security room yet? Did you talk to Celia and Big Jack at school?
You have to go to the security room, talk to Jack, talk to Celia, then back to the security room, and talk to Celia. This should be done on different days, then the dialogue will appear. But before that you have to go to her house at night, x2
I wrote the walkthrough, it is on the previous page. I went through the update the first time, I don't know why you can't
For the secret gallery, which is located near the computer. It's just a collectible images.
In your bedroom, click on the

By default, the cards in the secret gallery are closed. To open them, you need to find them. And above is the answer to the question how to find them

Yeah, honestly if anything that graph just shows he's, somehow, attracting even more people since by that graphs trends he's likely to continue growing over time. Of course that may change by the end of this month but considering that it looks like he's roughly made back half his patrons and we're not even halfway through the month I'd say it'll make little difference over time.
speaking of Christmas ... there is already someone already preparing and waiting for us ...
p.s. is fanart of crisdark31 on the icstor discord ... as always congratulations to him who made this beautiful photo
Not to be rude, but I think the idea that more and more people are catching on to Icstor is based on wishful thinking.
At best, his gains slowed down this month only after being close to record high the 3 previous ones. To be clear, I'm talking about gains, not just total numbers. He didn't lose patrons this month and he'll probably add a nice chunk as well if he releases the animations before December.
The fluctuation really is nothing unusual. Compare it with Belle for example, creator of Long Live the Princess, who delivers an update every month and is both highly transparent and active in the game's thread.
Basically the opposite of Icstor, same fluctuation:
Who would have thought, quietly did games on Rpg Maker, recruited patrons. Then suddenly decided to try Renpy. But something went wrong...
By the way, with the rest of his games too there were such delays?
