couple of years ago in 2019 DC had a vote to enlarge the game from 1280 x 720 to 1920 x 1080 and fixing bugs and cleaning up old code so that why it's taking long
Lel what a fucking mistake. Also yearly reminder that Dark cookies coder is a completely lazy and godawful. You don't need to wait for art to do coding, the fact he does that tells you how useless he actually is.

If you take the time the coders take to update a click and play porn game you would assume they are programming a new game engine

At this point it would be faster for them to rebuild the game from scratch (on a better engine, like Unity). Seriously what could take them so long?

This will sound like i'm defending them.
They're already rebuilding from scratch since they need to redo everything hence the x years in "production" (don't remember when the TU started and too lazy to check).
And for this type of game I don't think Unity (-$0.20) is better.

Pure speculation of course, but I would guess they've had to scrap and redo everything from zero at least a couple of times. Probably getting hung up restructuring the game to allow for easier implementation of the dating system in the future. Not really sure how that all would have worked spliced onto the old game.

It probably wouldn't have, and I share your speculation on multiple restarts. I suspect the primary reason they haven't changed engines to something more friendly is because they'd be sacrificing easy Android support in the process. Since they've said in the past that a significant portion of their audience is mobile users and that removing the black bars on the phone screen was a major impetus for switching to widescreen, they're stuck trying to modify Ren'Py into something it was never designed for.

It's particularly concerning that they haven't closed a single coding task in nearly four months, even after splitting things up to reflect the current state of development. The tracker on :

vs. the tracker today:

Username7, you maybe got a tracker update? Last month's progress report had coding doing some asinine stuff like reworking the Ren'Py dissolve effects, so I have a sinking feeling that DC has him off on side-quests in addition to being the de facto project manager for the posing crew.
