Why those split bye season would not make more sense two just combined them into a single game
Android has a hard limit of 2GB per apk, so when the game arrives there, I split it in a new season.
I fine-tuned the compression of the images so 2GB for Android or compressed versions means 5GB for uncompressed PC/Mac versions. Free accounts on downloading sites usually have a 5GB/day limit.
People with unstable or slow internet connections prefer to download 5GB for Season 1, store it, 5GB for Season 2, store it, and 1-5 GB for Season 3 (ongoing) over downloading 11-15 GB every time an update in Season 3 is published.

Imagine someone who started playing the game in the first chapter Windows Version. For Season 1 he downloaded 17 evergrowing updates that arrived to 5GB. If I didn't split it up in Season 2, he would download every update of Season 2 (8) with the 5GB of Season 1 included (40 extra GB over 8 updates). For Season 3, he would download 4 updates (and counting) with 10 extra GB (Season 1 and Season 2) each time, so 40 extra GB once again. 80 GB that, with the split system, he avoids to download.
