I know that these guys are doing barely enough that money flows and not an inch more. So I only check once a year for an update.
But I had to chuckle seeing that they added a roadmap on their website
"
• Cinematic mode for a 3D perspective of H content
• At least 6 large stages!
• Multiple routes and dynamic missions
• Over 50 enemies!
• Story with narrative in-game dialog
• Biomonster and tentacle enemies + H scenes
• Inflation and other visual statuses
• Dynamic world map events + side quests
• Extensive skill progression and loadout system

*cough* You are right. With these ambitions of 420% and the will to put about 4% effort into the development it probably takes 72 years from here on to make this happen.
After how many years has it been now (I've lost track long ago), we have stages that we can theoretically check off the list. I think there were about 8 the last time I played? zero routes or missions seem to be on the table outside the generic move to the right to progress or survive infinite waves. the 50 enemies claim scares me since that means for the 35-40 enemies still to go that is at least a month each per animation loop. Lets say about another 90 months ballpark for that alone. That also should tick the biomonster item line too.
Let's also be real and admit that zero people following this game are in it for any story. Who cares about any of that, but the voice acting will be at least another month of hiring voice actors for every enemy as well as onyx. So the 90 months just turned into about 135 months. This leaves us with the dyanamic world map events and side quests, and again who cares? Why reinvent the wheel when you could make streets of rage 5 in quadruple (quintupled, sextupled [lul]) the time that game took to be fully developed?
Then we are left with another mostly non relevant thing with skill progression. Are we going to unlock the slide attack instead of having it right from the start? What even is this nonsensical bullet point. Is it going to be double dragon on the nes all over again? We need 3 stars of xp to be able to do a jump kick at some point I guess.
Whatever they are smoking, I want to know where they get it since it is some strong stuff. Also, I know it will be about 10 more years before this game is even close to being "done" and by then there will be another system to use, which means redoing all the animations, and restarting from square one yet again. forget this nonsense.
