To the best of your knowledge-
Is any of that about a rewrite of 24 true ?

Yes. There are a lot of changes.
See on that image/example (extracted text from 1.24.1 on left side and 1.24.1.1 on right side):

Another game... so for SA let's expect 3 updates a year... at least I guessed the release of the next update xD

For those who are interested it has been announced via dev's Patreon and SS that the last update (ver 1.24.1) has undergone a significant rewrite following it's original reception. I haven't played through it yet but the bulk of the rewrite is relating to Frank's encouragement of the Abby/Lilly relationship if I understand correctly though I could be in error. The rewritten version is already available on those platforms as ver 1.24.1.1

What was wrong with his encouragement? Don't tell me some homophobes were complaining.

Update schedule
First up is the the first part of Becca's side story. That will be out by the end of August.
After that I will be working on 1.24.2.
When that's done I'll be starting the new game. *
Then I will be alternating updates between Single again and the new game.

*(No mention of a title that I've seen but this is a response to recent patreon troubles a la Mr Dots with DMD and Melody et al. As such SA will not be available via patreon)

Wait, so this game is abandoned?

Not abandoned. It will have an alternating release schedule in the same way as the Mr Dots titles DMD and Melody did after their Patreon issues. Single Again though will only be available via SS in the same way as DMD and not on Patreon.

I don't fucking get it... why does someone start a new game where the current one is nowhere near finished. I'm not supporting monthly but afterwards I'll seriously consider if I want to pay for it on release date.

Because Patreon gave the game the boot and CNG don't want to close his Patreon page, couse he has almost 1 000 subcriber? So he need something for it and this means another game.

In this case it's because of issues with Patreon and the chance of being banned there is increasing. Once the new game starts it will be available on Patreon and all reference to Single Again will be removed. Single Again will only be available for paid subs via SS.

This is the same thing that happened back in the day(christ that makes me sound old) with Mr Dots and Dating My Daughter. DMD got banned from Patreon so in order to be able to continue development of the game it was made available only on SS and all reference to it removed from Patreon and they developed and released on Patreon, Melody, Sunshine Love and have just started their fourth game called Thief of Hearts.

Of course the key difference is that Mr Dots team were able to maintain a monthly release schedule with each title having an update on alternate months.

 

[Elduriel]

ah got it, I missed the bit about patreon ban, last time I saw it was back up again after being suspended?

It is up again now. Think of this as a preventative measure to stop it happening again.

it's been only ~7 years since patreon banning incest (among other things). i was there.

every 8 weeks updates after melody was done (rushed).

As I understand it not so much homophobia but the fact that the girls would have something with each other when they should only be thinking about MC. Not gonna spell out the common three letter abbreviation here, but it is connected to that. (Well, it isn't in my opinion, but some people feel like that)

 

[Badjourasmix]

I get why some people don't like when girls are involved with each other in this type of games. But abby and lilith have been fucking around with each other pretty much since the start of the game. I didn't really see anything wrong with the mc pushing lilith to be with abby since it seems like becca's plan is for the girls to also be sexual with each other.

If I am not mistaken, make that "since before the start of the story".

 

[Maviarab]

When a dev starts pandering a vocal and fragile loud minority, it usually only ends up going one way.

True, but what I was trying to say is that us, the players have known that since the start of the game. So I don't really understand why people were so surprised and mad at it. It's not like it came out of nowhere.

Because they aren't fans of sharing with other women. I personally don't have an issue with it.
