You seem to think that "1.0" means "complete". Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. The versions could go 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 0.10, 0.11 ... . Or they could go 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, ...
I'm quite aware of how version numbers work in software. And you don't release a "1.0" if it has parts of it that literally say "Work in Progress." 1.0 would be a release candidate. If it's still in progress - not "there's a few bugs that slipped through" or "we thought of new features/content to add" - then it's not a release candidate, ergo should not be numbered 1.0.

A 1.1, 1.2, etc. that includes content added on? Sure, makes sense. A 1.0 that releases and asks for money as a "finished product" while still having "work in progress" signs in places? Nope. That isn't how software works, at least not with professional companies. (At least the "AAA" publishers who use the "live service" excuse release something that doesn't tell you it's unfinished. "Road maps" are meant to be additional content, not finishing the intended release version.)

I'd assume that because it actually does say "work in progress" in places, the work is intending to be done. Yes, plans may change. But if so, then I'd expect those things would be removed from the game as a 1.0 release, and then added back in later as a 1.X release once they're in release state.

Is this your own work?
Don't think so. Pepegaa has been sharing Icstor's posts from Patreon and the exclusive discord channel. Most recently the Sarah Christmas pic.
Since this is now one of several renders I've seen where Sarah is getting abused, I'd imagine one of the higher tier patrons keeps requesting them.

Anyone know how to increase money faster?
Cheating.
Upload your save game here and change the inventory money>value.
Or savescum the rock-paper-scissors game.
Or learn to use unren.bat which helps with all kinds of stuff, like extracting images, decrypting scripts to edit them, jump to specific scenes etc.
Or install Lain's Cheat mod.

Well, for starters this isn't AAA or AA game development where you pay for a complete product. This is pretty much a indie project funded by donations via Pateeon.

Also it is not uncommon for many developers to take a very loose aproach with the numbering of every update released, there are even some who avoid using the decimal fraction numbering and started calling them "episodes" instead.

Your first two sentences are at odds with each other.

1.0 is not necessarily the finished product, or even an RC. 1.0 might be the release after 0.9. And if you look around here, you'll find devs who release their first demo and call it 1.0.

Professional companies? This dude can't even get his project management down, and you want professional versioning?

And, yeah, "work in progress" signs (or the equivalent, "FIXME" comments in the code) go out in professional major releases ALL THE TIME. Hell, it's planned for - look at the explosion of DLC that shouldn't have been DLC the last few years.

This moment when you have to opt for the compressed version, not because your internet is too slow, but because your SSD is already crammed with 200GB of hentai.

Will Sara's content in 0.7 go all the way up to level 5 with her? If so, then this is going to be a big update, can't wait though, cuz Sara is just the cutest...

I'm going to assume that's rhetorical, because there's no way we know what's going on until he releases it.

I wouldn't focus on the levels too much as they are rather arbitrary. Sarah got anal at 3, Linda got vaginal at 4 (but no anal) and Caroline got bjs only until 5.

But if you like Sarah, you'll like what Icstor said about her content in 0.7 in one of the Q&A's:
Q: “Can we fuck Sara in this update or would it just be anal?”
A: "I think there has already been enough anal with her."


And another Patreon post:
"This time you should expect bigger update with Sara then the previous one with her. (Last time about 350pics, this time probably around 1000+ pics)."

Keep in mind though that in the same post he said he is "aiming to release this update in December", so there is that.

there's supposed to be a snowman here, but it doesn't appear, am I missing something? Or is it just some bug?

Remember when you tried to help me with renaming Linda to Slutbag Linda. After I told you that the variable existed in more than one spot. You looked at the code and said WTF. This dude can't even code properly. Professional LMAO. Let's just be happy if he puts stuff out without caring how he numbers it, right?

BTW what does "RC" stand for?

Why do you need an SSD for Hentai? Get yourself an external HD in the terabyte range. I got 2, 4 TB USB 3.0 drives a couple of years ago for $160 US. 8 Terabytes of porn LOL. I remember when 500gb was a lot of storage.
