Honestly needs an 'Abandoned' tag. It's been nearly a year now. Posting occasional 'pngs' on Patreon should not be considered as 'activity'. Especially ones that has nothing to do with the development or scenes of the game. At the very least, not with all those subs they've got.

Pretty solid game, but I just replayed it and it's about the same as the game I remember from about 4 years ago lol.
Exactly. I remember when this game, and Harem Hotel got regular updates all the time. I know that things change, but the wait time has gotten so massive that in my wait for > 1 update of content it ends up being years. Not only that but the updates don't necessarily scale in size compared to the wait either. A shame - consistency is key and while I doubt this will ever be abandoned, things are taking longer than they should.

People are okay with an arc released 1/3rd finished, or a dozen arcs released 1/12th finished if by the end of the year the dozen arcs are totally finished. Incremental updates are fine.

I'm going to be the hater here and say it, how the hell can it take so long to make updates for this type of games, and after that, you make an update that if you're lucky, will have 1 scene per character at most, idk, this is lickely the devs just slacking and milking as much money as they can with the game, because they don't want to finish it, I'd be ok with waiting 1 year for an update, if that update brought hours of playtime, with new characters and a lot of new content for current characters, but this game is either abandoned (but he posts to avoid people leaving and does small updates for the same reason), or a scam meant to just milk his fans, imo, anyone that still pays this dev is just stupid...

Surprisingly long. As someone who does 3d as a hobby render times really do take a WHILE. Plus writing (whether how good or bad) take a while to do to. That being said this is probs a bit of a scam. I mean why finish it when they can make it a live service and keep people engaged basically forever.

Well, HS doesn't have render times, but they do almost everything custom, so they have to make the sets, design any new characters, and do all the posing and everything (except where they could be using premade animations).

Damn, I was just thinking about this game and my beloved Nefari and... news from Patreon? Nefari-focused update? Woop!

For those too lazy to click:

To start off, Mythic Manor is still alive and has not been abandoned, despite the lack of updates in the past... forever.

❗v0.21 has finally made it to the stage where I can say it will be ready this month or very soon after. Development obviously has been extremely slow. Barely any progress on v0.21 had been made until the past month or so, mostly due to several different life issues and an extended period of burnout. On top of these issues, Reiralie has been unable to help much due to more important matters, which I completely understand. This will continue for the foreseeable future. They are still helping with testing and website-related things, but pretty much everything else has been on me. I'm sorry for leaving you all in the dark for so long. I understand it's not okay, even with these issues happening.

...

Shortly after v0.20 released, we were planning on hiring someone else, but things fell through. But now, we are in the final steps of hiring a different person to help with several areas of the game's development. I consider it important for quality to stay the same (or improve), so finding the right person that we could also trust wasn't easy. We'll have more details once this is completely finalized, but you can expect this addition to significantly speed up development (after v0.21). The goal is to have an update at least every 2 months or so.

Anyway, I believe actions speak louder than words, so I don't expect anyone to have much faith in Mythic Manor until it starts releasing at an acceptable rate (and our communication is improved greatly). I'm striving to make that a reality this year.
Hopefully the new hire means we'll be getting an injection of motivation. I imagine it'll help a lot, as having someone else to just bouncing write off of can oftentimes help speed things along. And that's just writing, let alone posing etc. Here's hoping 2024 is good!
