Don't plan on it. Even if all the art assets might be done. Even if the script might be written. There is still the coding and the posing involved (which are the two areas which still have the most work to do on the tech update). That would add more time onto the tech update release, furthering the delay even longer. No one should expect anything except the tech update... and the subsequent bugfix releases... before they see any content update for Rhonda, Annie, and Judith.
Oh, I fully expect it to have no new content.
And that's my point. For the longest time before the tech update began, the bottle neck was always the hand drawn art.
Now, the art has been (mostly?) completed, and the code / posing is going to be the bottle neck.
(I'm not sure why they cant figure out the rigging system for posing first, allowing the art assets to be worked on fully while the rest of the code is worked on, but that sounds like a project management failure)
But, unless my understanding is off, the entire point of the tech update was:
1) add wide screen
2) make the code more robust for adding new content.
#1 has largely been done, the assets ready to go, unless i'm mistaken?
#2... well, again, you can say it's 'done', but until you add new content, you really can't prove it was actually successful.
If they release the tech update with just wide screen, and it takes *another* 6 months to finally release Rhonda, then the tech update did nothing.
I hope I'm wrong. I hope it takes no more than a month and updates start flying out and they can prove the naysayers wrong.
But given it's taken them years on a Ren'py game, i'm not optimistic.
