I just hope she finds her direction: No more rewrites, crossovers, cuts then additions. Also, not a fan of these shorter updates. Yeah, the are more frequent, but they're so brief. Thankfully, the file size is small.
Hopefully but I doubt it. Given how she does everything on a whim and without any actual feedback, I fully expect atleast 2 more rewrites, 2-3 cameos that are pointless at the very least.

In all honesty, she forces herself to try and make theses updates and push them out as fast as possible while neglecting alot. Sh should really just sit down, write out each chapter that she envisions that goes with her story, and stick with it. If it takes 6 months to put out, so be it. Putting out updates at a 'faster' rate doesn't always mean it's great. Some devs, like Classy Lemon, can get away with it because they do a great job and seem to have their story already planned ahead of time. Here with EK, it doesn't seem like it.

You are probably right, I don't think she is going to change. I remember hearing issues with the colorist. I wonder if that's been solved?

You can see it from recent example (Ch12 prologue full). EK changed whole holly scene + Lena's gym threesome scene + added a conversation after gym threesome scene. That the result of writing story just on whim. And it will continue and there will be more inconsistencies/changes like these till it is completed as updates will be more frequent so margin of error increases respectively. Welcome to EK's world:KEK:!

More frequent updates means more work for colorist in short time(quick updates remember) and colorist was overwhelmed in longer updates too as issue was from CH10 at the very least IIRC. So chances are it will continue as it did till now:confused:.

I followed this game from the start but didn't know that Evakiss has a colorist. I thought she was working solo. Great art regardless.

I am still not sure if it is positive that small updates come out so quickly, it is not only about the technical part but also about the dialogues that will take less time to correct, this means that in the future the workload will be greater because you will have to do the corrections that he deems appropriate while working on the update :unsure: :unsure:

Thx for the info. But she is still involved in the art right? There was an interview where she said she did the drawing by the tracing drawing style.
Yes she draws with tracing, then tweak the faces and some other details, and then the colorist adds colors and depth.

Though I don't understand how he can be overwhelmed by this project alone.

By she, you mean Evakiss right? But by he, who do you refer to?

I very much doubt that the colorist would make a livable wage off of just this project alone. Most likely what happened is the colorist had a couple of other projects that all ended up having a similar deadline and got overwhelmed. One, or more, of the projects was going to suffer. I'd imagine an easy choice, depending on the other work, would be this game.

It's not on a whim. The initial version had some weird inconsistences in how the Lena/Holly romantic route and "changed Holly, no romance with Lena" would get mixed. It was pointed out and EK has addressed it, i don't think this is something to complain about.

He might have to also feed his kids from time to time....at least twice per week.

Maybe does it as a part-time gig? :unsure:

Makes sense. Thnx for explaining that.
