Problem is the [Onhold] tag implies the dev has given some level of statement of 'pausing development for now' and the dev here hasn't. The dev here has basically just disappeared off the net, which would necessitate the abandoned tag because there isn't a stated intent to continue working on it later.

[Onhold] imply we have confirmation from the dev that the game is just "on-hold"
Like an official-statement to let-us know the game isn't just abandonned
In our situation,
the dev did mention he couldn't work anymore on the game for some time due to the quarantine
Which indeed mean the game WAS "on-hold" at some-point
but then he came back and made a statement saying he was coming back to work on the game again
and that was two months ago
So we don't know if he's actually gonna resume working on the game or not
he simply came-back, then he disapeared again
Developer just updated on Patreon. They got Covid-19 and are putting the game on hold while they recover.
You got here before I did, wow.
For now the Patreon and game are on pause, and once I can release regularly again I'll continue. I can honestly say I don't know when that will be, but I love the game and definitely want to continue it. I am sorry for the uncertainty.

Shit man, glad to hear you're back at least. I'm sure you probably got a lot of advice before leaving, but to point out a mistake I made: Really, really do be careful you don't push yourself too hard and return to work (actual-work and game-work) before you're really up to it. Even if it's relatively simple stuff you can do from home, you'll probably be surprised by how tiring it can be, and just trying to barge through it won't help you recover.
Thanks you for your honesty
Waiting, even a really-long time, is absolutely fine for most peoples
Especially if it's for such good-reasons, no-one will get angry or whine because your health is more important than the game
But not knowing why or for how-long is wrong, especially when you get money from fans/patrons at the same-time
Glad you came clear with it and decided to officially put everything on-hold, thank you for your honesty
Hope you'll get better dude, take care

Best of luck in your recovery! This game is a pretty unique offering and it's good to hear it'll keep going, even if the wait is longer than usual.
Really liked what I've seen of this so far. Get well soon!

From what I understand, they had already recovered from it when they made the announcement.
Is there a guide or something for routes/scenes that's in the game atm?
Or some general rules for how the stats work or the game progresses?

I'm just worried they've lost motivation and given up as from what I've seen this person made strides and had consistent and rapid updates. In a few days it'll be an entire month since the recovery. Understandable that they have to finish recovery, bills, etc. but I'm hoping that we'll hear word in a few days. Or at least next month. However I would like a mid month heads up. It could also be possible that the artist they had originally hired moved on and they don't want to push forward, but from some messages I've gleaned they are fine with placeholders. Maybe they are active in the discord?

I won't go into too much detail because it's, y'know, personal medical shit, but COVID recovery times are completely up in the air. I know at least one person who needed ventilating but went back to work almost immediately, and know of people who didn't get admitted at all but are still getting neuological problems >6mo later. Personally, I was out for at least 3 months and I wasn't even hospitalized.
I'd say give it a few months before expecting proper work to resume. Don't be too pessimistic unless they haven't responded by Christmas. Popping on discord is probably the best place to get news, but off the top of my head, I don't know if it's patron only or not.

I'm in the Discord, as well as being a Patron of theirs. Their last message in the Discord was on the 14th of last month with the last Patron post being on the same day. Up until February 18th, they would release an update roughly every two weeks so I find it difficult to believe that they would just lose motivation especially when there was financial and community backing.
Personally, I'm just hoping they're still in the recovery phase and that nothing serious has happened.
