Weird thing, though. The image is called v10_holly9. So it is the 9th image in a scene focusing on Holly. So I agree it is likely some Ivy's game like situation. Maybe some dare game with Ivy and Lena and possibly some (lucky) guy?
Doesn't have to be the same scene though. In Chapter 9, the image where Ivy kisses Holly is called v9_holly8, because the other 7 were used for the scene with Ian. So it could be that this is the new scene after the protagonist switch, or just a separate scene for another branch.
Yeah, my thought as well. From Eva’s reports it sounds like (a big chunk of) Ian’s part comes first, and if the theory that this image is from Lena’s part of the story is correct, I’m guessing on one of two things: This is the start of Lena’s scene, and up to 8 other images are from an Ian+Holly scene; or it’s similar as earlier where you have two different Holly scenes depending on if you’re “corrupting” her or not.
Maybe. But this is only one image, not a second scene. Holly has 3 scenes in V8, v8_holly, v8_hotel and v8_ivy. Cindy has 2 scenes in V9, v9_cindy and v9_cindy_shoot. Robert has 2 scenes in V4, v4_robert and v4_restaurant. So it would be a first for 2 scenes to share a name.
Could also be a placeholder name then. It just seems weird that this image would be in the middle of the scene. Usually by the 5th image everyone is naked. And if it's a photo shoot, then similarly to Cindy, it'd probably be called v10_holly_shoot9 or something like that, but then it would be an instant spoiler for those curious enough to check the name of the picture.
Counter theory: It's one of the last pictures of the scene, as Holly's getting dressed afterwards.
With this progress, anything below 4 Months doesn't seem likely unless of course the next month's update showcases a significant advancement.
I am pretty tired of this discussion, every time EK puts out an update the back and forth in this sub starts. With people acusing and other making excuses, people getting called haters and simps alike. I would love a more regular cycle as much as the next guy but similar to discussions I observed and participated in on the LoP thread it is moot.
What does "gardening approach to writing" means? (EN is not my first language)I am pretty tired of this discussion, every time EK puts out an update the back and forth in this sub starts.

But not unlike LoP where the question revolved around the business model (their old subscriber model vs Patreon or Steam) the much more interesting question is if a revised more frequent release schedule can be achieved through outsourcing elements of the development and in turn these cost can be recouped by significant growth in Patreon subscribers. I am not sure I think it would require much larger marketing as well as a release on Steam for ORS and GGGB (which requires changes). Then EK would need a large cushion to bridge the period until the growth is sustainable and she can return to a monthly schedule. One last point although it has been brought up here a lot. These changes would require her to drop this gardening aproach in writing (at least somewhat) and people have been argueing for and against that as much as about the release windows.
Even though let's be honest this isn't Thomas Pynchon but at the end of the day a "x-rated" VN with a die-hard community on a piracy forum that is heavily projecting into the characters. There I managed to call all of us (and that includes me) simps at the end...
GGGB has incest which means it cant be released on steam according to steam guidelines
Sisterly Lust is on steam as is shelter.
actually it kinda is. if you see this game as "fap material", you are wrong imo. it's more than that, much more.
