I am patron for quite some games for couple years. I even won't cancel the patron for games abandoned if I feel to pay more because I like that game. The reason I didn't become patron for this game simply because of its slow update, even through I like this game quite a bit. I just feel grateful that people are supporting it and the dev are still making progress. Hopefully after v0.9 update I will change my mind to be a patron of this game

Slow update is indeed a problem. The author should look for collaborators. Even if he tried before, it is not ideal
The update nearly every two years is not acceptable. I also want to be a sponsor, but I have to think carefully. If the time can be kept within one year, I will consider sponsoring after 0.9. I buy many Japanese games, but they are new and independent content, not just adding updates. By the way, the author is a person, and he really should look for partners
His partner should be doing the coding, event creation and writing in RPG maker XP, which is an antique engine and editor (to put it mildly). He won't go for a port to a more modern engine because he got burned hard in the past when some inexperienced dev tried to put the game in Gamemaker 2. A port to RPG maker MV/MZ is possible, but requires higher resolution artwork, an insane amount of coding to get the game mechanics and scenes in, an insane amount of mapping and event creation. He doesn't have the budget to pay someone to do this fulltime. Someone doing it for free will get burned out within the month.
The main reason why update speed is slow is because this dev is an artist. It's way more satisfying for him to create thousands of assets for an update in the far future than to use the ancient ScaleGarden coding framework to actually put the scenes in the game and release the update.
Freedom of speech, everyone (including non-patrons) have their right to give their opinion/ reviews as long as not offending anyone. If you remove the "stupid" sentence, your post is totally fine. You pay for something you support, if you feel not worth it, it is your money, you an withdraw it anytime. Of course, you are free you write review to people who wish to become patron what to expect and decision is always up to that specific person. Criticism and offensive words are always not recommended, you convince people by facts and reasoning, not by force. For me, this game development is indeed quite slow, close to dead (if it isn't, lol).

AND IF HE DOES NOT MAKE PROGRESS HE TAKES NO MONEY FROM PATREON.
Ask a patron instead of assuming with no knowledge.

Why do people pretend that RanneRo is some master of milking like the guy behind Wife & Mother?
You can like him or hate him for his slow progress on this game but the guy posts his work schedule for the month before the beginning of every month and actually sticks to it for almost every month. He also pauses his Patreon when he takes breaks which most devs do not do at all.
Why not just stick to the truth when shitting on the guy? Just write several paragraphs about how frustrated you are he is slow and refuses to off load some of the work he has to other people. You can even complain about how he decided to start a family mid development and that obviously slowed the game progress or complain about any number of other unreasonable expectations you had for him.
Just don't make obvious and stupid lies about the game and developer.

Calm down people enjoy the things in life that matter, and stop arguing your all in the same boat no game update, free game or paid game doesn't matter, let the man make money the people that pay him have the right to speak their mind, everyone who gets it free can have their opinion too and here's mine he has a kid and family and bills to pay just like all of us, so just fap shut up and have fun

Hes even stated that hed continue with the work even if it didnt make much money. Ur not gonna find a more honest dev. Its literally ur choich if u wanna support him so I dunno y people who r probably not even patreons decide to make unreasonable claims
simply because those people are full of self and self-righteous.

Stuck, need help.
I fought the bandit, recovered the poor mans money, did mining with blue hair guy and did a night of waitressing and spoke to the mayor. I skipped through his convo, but I think he said he wanted me to go to the forest and fight bandits, but I can't find where to go. Guide says "go from your house west-west-west-NORTH!", but I can only go west once; then she says there's 'nothing for her to do out there' when I try to go past the lake with the pier. I've talked to everyone else and can't go to any other forest exits, except the East but there's nothing there either.
Edit; figured it out. I had to get my sword upgraded at the item shop.

If mayor wants you to fight bandits - it should be west of your house then west after a lake and, finally, north over a bridge.
I hope with this new update that there's more characters where you can give you first time to I do not want to do it with boo in this new update I'd rather deal with a different character.
