I hear you, man. Even if there's gonna be someone as good as Claudia (or in my case Octavia), she won't be Claudia - and it just won't feel the same, right.

the price of high quality fully colored art is probably a mojar reason for the finance problems, art like what is in the game would go for 200 - 500 dollers or more if you commissioned it, and the sheer amount of it in the game must cost a lot even if the artist is giving them a discount

I'm not saying you're wrong but maybe this dev is just bad about financial management? There is plenty other games out there use 2D drawing art and they're doing just fine. The reason I'm saying this is I saw dev blow money on pointless voice actor while they're clearly still struggling with money. Voices is fine and all but it should be a lowest priority for these type of games.
So - some disagree with Kuma's choice to have VA - and I agree with his VA choices (I wish there were more fully voiced women but that's not going to happen - oh well). Those who disagree on the choice to have VA as unnecessary or unaffordable are making a judgment call more than 3 years after this AVN was started - the benefit of hindsight. It has no bearing on reality since anyone passing that judgment has had more than 3 years of time and data to pass judgment on versus Kuma and team who made the decisions about VA and other aspects of the AVN in the first half of 2018 prior to crafting the first rev of this great AVN.
One of the things that attracted me to Milky Touch was the VA, and I have always been impressed with the VA selected for Claudia. This was part of the benefit of being a Patreon and supporting this AVN - some great VA.
I can't say how many Patreons joined because of the VA but I Know that I am one of them.
Many can talk about $ management and choices from 4q2021 without ever having had to fund the team for 3+ years while trying to create something that they could be proud of while attracting enough $ to continue this great creation.
As has been said before - there was simply not enough $ contributed to keep Milky Touch going, and I'm glad that we are getting some kind of ending versus another abandoned AVN which happens all too often.
So, Patreon or someone taking Milky Touch for free, Kuma is releasing the second to last update in late October and I am looking forward to it.

I, too, like your work for Milky Touch. Albeit I do have a comment about it; something that's been bothering me a bit since I first played MT.

Will you be writing for Neon Touch as well, once Milky Touch development has finished?

Thank you for dedicated work Wildquill, not the conclusion of the project that everybody hoped for, but we really appreciate your work man. So again, thank you.
And also I love your new project this year on Sunwave Hotel, I wish you all the best!
I think this might be a matter of personal opinion. I love vivid descriptions, and find games with a one liner describing the sex scene trite and boring.

Of course.
It's not like I'm suggesting to use Hemingway's writing style.
Maybe i am dumb but can someone help me understand how does ending MT and moving to a new project help them financially? Since they are planning to keep the quality in terms of same artist(s) and voiceover and music etc in this new game how is this supposed to solve the financial situation?
To me this leaves a bad taste in my mouth as i personally feel that they have lost quite a little credibility especially to me, at the start of MT i was impressed with monthly updates that were substantial in both quality and quantity, the later part of MT it started to extend to a month half and now up to 2months++ per update and still the quality and quantity is the same as monthly updates and alot of the paths were not explored fully even after extending the time between updates.
I probably would not support their new project anymore until i see that it's worth supporting. This is just my personal opinion and i would love to hear any counter argument.

Thanks Arnav. Yeah I tend to go a little far with the purple prose. I like to think that I've improved on that over the course of MT and taken the lesson for my other game.
I don't want people running into the Karen Masturbation scene and just having to go click click click. It's wasteful, and probably a bit of a mood killer
.That is the plan.
Thank you so much, Spear01. And thanks for your kind words on Sunwave Hotel. I hope that one day it can rise to the level of Milky Touch. Right now, I'm mostly just focused on the main story, characters (side and main) and sexy bits. But one day I'll have a nice UI and other stuff. If you have any more thoughts, please drop them on the SH Thread. I've love to hear them.
Thank you Thealucid. It can definitely be a bit of a balancing act. It's part of why I still love writing naughty bits even after however many scenes I've written

It's not like you need my advice, but I think that the main purpose of text in VN's sex scenes is to convey what the pictures can't show - i.e. what the characters think and feel, what's going on inside their heads, not with their bodies.

Sorry if it was a bit of blunt question, but I'm glad your sticking through to the next Kuma game, your writing was a key aspect for why I've been invested thoroughly in this specific VN for this long, and it makes me optimistic for the next.

No problem at all. Been a long October over here. I'm delighted to hear that my writing helped Milky Touch stand out with you and others
. Kuma gets some credit too. They got the big plan. I'm looking forward to our cyberpunk adventure.Because then they can put the finished game on Steam where people (like me) who only buy finished games will buy it?
Hello there! I really love the game, the style, the script and everything, but I'm confused with the routes, is there any guide? The walkthrough is a little confusing so I was wondering if there is something more straightfoward. Thanks!!
