And why did it take so long?

Maybe learn a few things before trying to make yourself sound clever ;)
I didn't think my comment was clever, just an observation. The past tends to be a good predictor of the future, in game development terms, I have found.

I am sure I read the dev's reasons at some point, but honestly all the reasons for the various devs to pause their games for multiple years tends to run together in my mind these days.

No knock on the dev, he doesn't owe us anything. Whatever his reasons, glad to see he is starting it up again. But I don't see this as a rapidly updated game. If you think regular timely updates are in this games future, then great. We will all see.

It's hard to tell, TBF. I don't remember any of the original releases (either v0.02 or v0.03) being fast at all. In fact, IIRC there was a considerable amount of time (averaging 6 months?) between releases. From what Polyrotix' latest update said, he's in a very different RL situation now, one that sounds like updates could be more frequent and steadier. That said, even if you believe Polyrotix now (I'm somewhat iffy myself), life can still always get in the way. So while I wouldn't necessarily assume a huge delay between updates, that doesn't mean I'm convinced monthly or even bimonthly updates are going to be a regular thing going forward. We'll just have to see how things progress.

4-5 years (even less depending when this got abandoned) up to 0.04 so around 1 update per year.

Uh...Oh. Likely abandoned again?

IDK about "likely". It depends on how he handles the stress and if he moves forward. There have been some devs whom life seems really to have screwed over in the past (R.I.P. Chatterbox), so this very well could be another one of those cases. I'll reserve my judgement / assumptions until some more time has passed since this.

Hey there,

I just want to start off this March update post with a big old FUCK YOU to my landlord, Alex. The insane amount of stress you caused me these past few weeks makes me want to choke you! Fuck you, Alex! Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you! FUUUUUUCK YOOOOOU. Sorry everyone for the language.
Yep, I think we can expect great things from daddy Poly moving forward, no doubt :KEK:

In 10 years from now, when we'll all grow old and impotent, Polyrotix will finish the act 2, then some good soul will make a mod that cuts all the "story" crap, and this will be the best VN made by humanity ever.

But now, I feel it's quite disappointing, the 0.05 in particular.
