Shut the fuck upNow that AI is around there is no reason for such little updates to take so long. It is milking patreons and nothing else.

You better be the incognito author or you need therapy.Now I've been along this ride since...well before even chapter 3 was RELEASED! AND, I specifically remember being so HYPED AND PROUD... of CYANCAPSULE'S GROWTH, on patreon alone! Hell, I remember specifically checking out his page on patreon DAILY, JUST to see it go from 'under'...TO $3000, $4000-$6000 to $9000 and UP, to the point where even after a 9 MONTH+ HIATUS... he GETS $14,730 ( A MONTH! ), which is probably WAY more than what most of us make lol ( But I'm so fucking happy for em, BECAUSE, I BELIEVE they fucking deserve that BUDGET and SUPPORT for THEMSELF and the PROJECT, FOR GIVING SOME OF THE ABSOLUTE BEST CONTENT AND GAMES I'VE EVER SEEN!!!
I even remember scouring f95zone just to see if other people got the same positive and uplifting experience I had from it when so much was shit with the world... And, I've seen it grow from something very niche to something that literally has OVER 5100 PAYING supportors!
NOW, that the budget and support have increased to such COPIUS amounts, I think just about EVERYONE would want to see that money and the support their giving... LITERALLY AND DIRECTLY effecting said project... AND HIRING SOME PEOPLE WILL DO EXACTLY THAT . Far too often I've seen people in these situations, OVERWORK themselves, bring themselves to BURNOUT and make themselves hate their own project based solely on the pressure of what's expected/been promised to supporters for said project, but that's the last thing that I want to happen to this creator and they SHOULD use that money and support to lighten the load on themselves!
And hiring team members for things that do not need to be on CYAN alone is KEY! And, would have a plethora a benefits...
-Shared workload
-Time between content readiness being shortened like NEVER BEFORE
-Even more backers, supporters and CONFIDENCE in the project TRULY seeing itself to the end. WITHOUT succumbing to many if not MOST other Project's fate of abandoned incompletion and compromising any planned and desired features just to barely scape a "finished project" (So, I understand some people's general Fear in that regard)
-The massive Explosion this game would have in SOOOOO MANY WAYS...
Even more people would here about this with more CONSISTENT updates (because of)= CONSISTENT discussions and topic of conversations, *A BACKUP PLAN FOR ANY UNFORSEEN DETERMINTES AND PROBLEMS AS CYAN WOULD NOT BE A ONE PERSON ARMY! Supporters growing at potentially an EVEN MORE RAPID PACE THAN EVER, (I MEAN FOR FUCK SAKE CYAN IS STILL MAKING $14,730 (EVERY MONTH!!!!) AFTER A 9 MONTH HIATIS!?!?
FUCK YEAHHHH!✨️
If that doesn't go to show that people KNOW that there is something great here and something even greater and further to push forward as a supporter, than I don't know what will...
I just want Cyan to U S E that budget and support to lighten the GIANT ASS LOAD that IS this amazing project in ways to FURTHER ITSELF, QUICKEN PRODUCTION, LESSON IMAPACT AND DELAYS OF UNFORSEEN PROBLEMS (HENCE THE 9 MONTH DELAY) AND go about all of it in a much healthier and stressless way for Cyan! ❤
(guilt free, headache free, stress free, well...definitely-er)
I mean when a business takes off... they accomodate with production and more employees, when projects are backed and blow up... they increase their working force , HELL, when even youtubers start to succeed... they hire editors, and this is all to accommodate an ever expanding audience AND THEMSELF, this is ALL so they don't burn themselves out, hurt themselves with a constant push to accomplish all of the people's desire's, Expectations, and PROMISES, all while minimizing risk of setbacks for ANY unforeseen problems, and is all and all a much healthier way to go about things and with a consistent growth in SUPPORT and BUDGET...truly improving work methods (as a PRIORITY) SHOULD always, be an absolute given.
I TRULY care about this project AND the person making it, IF I DIDN'T, I wouldn't Be writing all this ,probably wouldn't be hear at all, or saying ignorant mindless shit like [UPdAte tO LOng-sHouLdVe UsEd AI-YoU BaD]
But I'm not that and I DO CARE and want this game to SPREAD AND GIVE AS MANY PEOPLE THE SAME JOY IT BROUGHT TO ME✨️, and there is NOT many games I say that for...
I just hope that this doesn't fall on 'deaf' ears, people care about this, and maybe even Cyan themselve's sees this if this sentiment spreads...)
(P.s. we're still missing the the #1 scene from the 'Scene' Gallery... [ROLF HANDSHAKE])

That's a really good point,I want new updates out as much the next guy, but it's not as simple as hiring someone else with that budget.
Down to a lot of reasons but namely because as soon as you do bring on someone else, even in a casual setting like this, it makes you an employer, meaning you've got to pay insurance, declare it etc, so it's not always worth the extra hassle unless you're planning on setting up a full studio, and then there's finding someone consistently reliable with a long-term project like this.
The budget can mainly go towards things like making sure CYAN can comfortably work on the game full time without working another job, and not having to worry about anything money wise. Yes it's a lot of money but there's limits on what a solo dev can do with it.
I think it's been like 9 months and I get where you are coming from, but I just think it was to do with a poor security as a whole, on the projects front (Not being ready and or prepared for any troubles/hinderences 'if need be'...and it was.) And not a form of intentional stalling/dishonesty or purposely milking people for money.A little surprised that was the amount of content for 7 months, I'm not financing this project so Im not complaining, more surprised by those who do and getting that amount in over half a year.
Well with this being a 2D project I'm honestly not sure what sort of funding is required for that, like mine is 3D so most of the budget goes on 3d assets like clothes or buildings, for a 2D project with it all being drawn.. id say maybe a license for whatever art software is being used, then there's the soundtrack, those can run up a lot when used commercially.That's a really good point,
Because I definitely see an added responsibility factor of sorts when getting more people on the job at first, but I still think that long-term wise, some help would definitely blossom into a healthier work life and would make the project itself more secure.
But do you think that any of the support funded money by customers should go back into the project itself directly? And IF so... then where?
Yes, I ENTIRELY agree with you, that's WHY I think he should, at the very least (with that big budget) at least hire or pay someone else to CODE at the very least... And this project/game shouldn't really even be remotely difficult for someone that... IS PRIMARILY a coder, as it's a 2d VN off ALL things. But, that would free them up so much SOOO MUCH more and potentially wise even, as well. As I SEE them saying how much they contemplate adding such varied choices, SMALL OR GREAT, just because of the sheer factor of not only drawing, but ALSO having to deal with the Primary factor of Coding it all, which, like you said and I agree with, they PRIMARILY are NOT. So I just think it would be much healthier for them work-wise to share the necessary task of such a thing WITH a person more qualified, and expertised and rounded in that field, to ease A burden/factor of game development they are not very accustomed too. And that would also have the added benefit of, per say, they WERE to get writers block, something emergent of sorts that needs to get taken of, etc(like the 9 month waiting period for just the latest update)..., they wouldn't need to stress out as much/or feel guilty as much for something like-, development slowing down on their end, and rather at least have a comfort knowing that at least some major aspect of an update is being worked on to some degree, regardless of their current status of having to do ALL of this ALONE. I'd rather they do this less stress/guilt free, while also having a comfort of stability, KNOWING they don't have to carry this giant responsibility and load on them...alone, and just get some assistance in fields like this, as they certainly have the 'means' to do so...Well with this being a 2D project I'm honestly not sure what sort of funding is required for that, like mine is 3D so most of the budget goes on 3d assets like clothes or buildings, for a 2D project with it all being drawn.. id say maybe a license for whatever art software is being used, then there's the soundtrack, those can run up a lot when used commercially.
Plus then with the update timeframe CYAN is primarily an artist, so the programming side of it could be taking up a lot of it if you're not used to that side of thinks. And then 2d art especially in this sort of painted style can take a long time to get how you want. And then there's the possibility of writers block.
