It's been 9 months my dude. I think it's more than fair for people to be upset at the time between updates

Is there an update release schedule? I’m a lil bit upset too cuz its been 9 months since last update. BUT I see that Ocean is working on the game and this is the most important.
You just need to be patient <3
Ehh I have a sneaky feeling that this game will be abandoned by the next 3 updates.

We can't know what will happen in the future. But Ocean's next patreon goal is to buy professional GPU.
Anyway all we can do is wait and hope.
Nah, the dude loves his work too much to get tired of it, let alone abandon it.
Not sure if he'd buy a new GPU anytime soon, but he's been improving his work life a lot lately. More than 2220 renders for SG and more than 700 renders for WIAB. And then the cinematics, which is a huge pain in the arse if you don't know what you're doing.
So, yeah, it's been a productive 9 months, at least according to me.

Could be? It could, but is highly unlikely. Just looking at the odds from what I saw and remember from 2019 to 2021 and now, at that time, Ocean wasn't really active on Patreon or any other media, when developing chapter 3 there were long times without any update on Patreon, etc. There is too the mental fiasco that he is used to constantly mentioning when he was developing chapter 3, yada yada. IIRC this thread was a dumpster of people saying that he was milking and the game abandoned(yeah, more than now).
Nowadays we have bi-weekly devlogs from his two games, and he is every now and then hovering over this thread, WIAB's thread, and Summer's Gone's off-topic thread, his devlogs are absolutely upfront and transparent of what he is doing, planning on doing, etc.
I dare to say that this is the "golden age" when it comes to the development of Summer's gone and Where It All Began but that is just my two cents.

At some point ill try this one out. The renders look good and at 128 pages of discussion it must be doing something right.
...I cant be the only one stuck on the MCs hair though. Why does he look like he sells planets to Frieza?
Like hes one dead bald friend away from going Super.

No, you thought wrong. The entire story will be rewritten. The overall plot may remain the same, but even the path along the way will be different. There are already seeds in the reworked v0.1 release that could grow to make significant differences.

Chapter 1 Rework is with Chapter 4 release. Ocean stated as much in one of his dev logs.

Oh ok, thats good that its with this one, not sure why i thought it was 5. I thought he was only reworking chapter 1 though i didnt know he was doing the whole game.
I thought it was just WIAB getting the full rework.

What? No! IIRC only the first two chapters are being reworked.
When did Ocean say that the whole SG is getting reworked?

Long release times cause he is working on two games. He gets constant support and has stated he's improving his hardware. This is just the nature of the beast guys. If it gets too depressing just remember some games take over a year for an update (the deluca family) or promise updates but never deliver (milfy city).
Also he started working on the reworks for SG last update and he stated they should be finished by the time of Ch. 5 release. So everyone is like half right.

the dev is working on two of the highest quality games I've seen at the same time. its a miracle he can even release them at the times he does. he deserves all the support

As Ocean said himself, that working on 2 different games helps him to keep busy without burning out. Any time he gets stuck or tired or frustrated working on one of them, he can switch to working on the other one and switch back to the first any time he gets a good idea how to continue and feels like working on it again.
Makes sense, IMHO. Anyway, the same kind of strategy helps me at my work.

yeah im very confused, does anyone have a link or the post where he says all this? ive only ever seen that he is doing chapter 1 again and i always thought it was with chapter 5. im sure i read that on the game start up at one point but i either read it wrong or it changed. Maybe the chapter 5 part comes from another game and im getting the 2 confused but i definitely never heard that he was doing the whole game again.What? No!
