Okay, because you said please
Hi everyone!
Let’s dive into some updates and discuss our current challenges.
Right now, we’re planning to split all the accumulated content (before SubscriberStar) into three seasons.
The last half-finished update (the one we were working on before we were banned) is still on hold. In theory, we could continue the story right where it left off after the ban, just as we originally intended. For now, though, that’s a distant dream, and our focus is on shaping what we already have into a polished product.
As is common in this type of visual novel, we’ve encountered several familiar challenges and have been tackling them throughout development, with final polishing now underway. These include overly linear plot progression, an empty world, logical parallel character branches, coherent development, days with too few quests, and so on.
Of course, if we’d gone with a more cinematic gameplay style, where the player mostly watches a movie with occasional choices, none of these challenges would have come up. But, as usual, we chose a different path, and we hope you’re enjoying it so far.
Now, I’ve got a question for you: in your opinion, what do you think is the most reasonable price for the first season? Keep in mind that Steam takes a 30% cut.
As always,
Thank you all so much for your support, without you, none of this would be possible!
Love,

.99 cents. With free updates. Jk, they could probably do something like Dreams of Desire, between 15-20 USD, that seems reasonable. Don’t know how that game went about updates tho, whether it was free or paid DLC
" My note: What yall think should be the set price for the game? "
IMO it should be very little for those who have 3+ 4+ years of developmental support through patreon/subscribe star (free for higher tiers). The game has been in a constant state of redevelopment "redux" ect. with very little updates although I do understand steam will have some variations from the vanilla version those subs have supported all of this work through those platforms. Even if just paying $1 a month for 4 years (x12 months) that's already $48 assuming they did not increase their subscription to get earlier access.
For anyone else I would say $10-15 per chapter (he mentioned 3 parts so far). This would make the complete (or up to date) version $30-$45 and perhaps the final version costing $50-60. The individual chapter sales will only be good as long as that's the most up to date version. Once a new chapter comes out they need to be sold together or the previous chapter at a reduced price (this is called a product life cycle).
In a nut shell it's actually very complicated because you have to consider old and new customers, product life cycles, sales like black Friday or steam summer sale, advantages to new player acquisition at lower price points, updates and all of these will have higher and lower considerations throughout time.

why the "jk"? with a 13-37K per month average earning on patreon, which suggests he got paid around 240 thousand dollars for that last update that he took 10 months to do (based on the mean value)....99 cents. With free updates. Jk, they could probably do something like Dreams of Desire, between 15-20 USD, that seems reasonable.

God I hate that I'm effectively on the side of the Milk Trolls now, but Uber has been milking this one hard, and now he's spent the last 7 months "getting steam ready", aka another 161 thousand US dollars so he can squeeze even more money out of this project,.. Meh!! He's already been paid more than he's worth.
BTW, I used to be a defender of his... look at me now lol, I detest Milk Trolls whining about the way other people chose to spend their money and I tend to support Devs attempts to get a fair days pay out of their projects, but Uber is just taking the piss.
Ok. Whatever grievances you have with Uber and the time it’s taking for the latest release, in no world could you realistically expect them to release it for .99 cents. It doesn’t really matter how much substar makes, Steam is meant to act as a new revenue stream for their team. They’ll most likely match the rest of the market and one of the most popular h-games on Steam, Dreams of Desire, started out in the price range I mentioned.

The recent announcements they made are just like what my colleague (who got piped) said during the daily stand up; he tried to elaborate as much as he could to extend the length of his speech, yet not delivering any actual work or cr. Uberpie is not only increasing the gap between the updates but also skipping regular announcements, and I wonder whether he will just disappear later like innoxia did.

So, its been what, a year since last update? A year that they supposedly spent on preparing for steam release, while still having at first patreon, then SS from people who were hoping to get an update? IDK why people are still in subscriptions, since its obviously will be cheaper to just by his game if it ever appears in full on steam.
And all thouse "seasons" are suspiciously scammy also. Like dudes will do shit "upgrades" for season 1 for another year, while people had been waiting (some even paying) to get sister content.

$10 per part. 3 parts, $30.
Last update was 31 Jan 2024, less than 10 months (so far).
They have been working on the steam release since April 2024, about 7 months (so far).
There is a supposedly an almost finished small update (so Uber says) that they were working on before they got booted from Patreon in mid-March 2024.
While I don't agree/disagree with your sentiment... It's always best to make sure you have the right info when sharing that sentiment.

It was what, v.1.07.3c.? Because as I see in update log last update with any new content was v.1.07.3a.
Anyway last update I remember having new content was introducing ntr route. Not my taste, but i think it was nice, especially for ntr-fans. After that there was nothing new as far as i remember.

I dont see them promising to release it soon, they are now concentrated on steam 1,2,3 season version it seems. That kinda makes really new content a question of next american presidency time.

from my FAQ: 31,414
v1.07.3a 29 Jan 2024 (7 months)
v0.95.7a 01 Jul 2023 (8 months, 3 weeks)
v1.07.3 was main route "Season 5" continuation - yes, it had content. If you don't remember, you can watch my speed run here: 29,174
v0.95.7 was the first part of "Season 5" that had both netorare and main route content.
Game on steam should logically be $19.
'A' is the 1st letter of the alphabet, while 'I' is the 9th.
AI=19
The math checks out folks!

I had forgotten how bad the AI CGs were, how I miss the original art. And there wasn't even faster development in exchange for that. I'd gladly pay extra on steam for a version with the older style, too bad it's not happening.Okay, because you said please
