Looking at the credits page on patreon. There are 5 different artists credited for this game (also 6 voice actors)
meanwhile SHELTER has 1 single artist (who is different from the 5 who worked on fate of irnia.
It's always the same mess. So often artists aren't under a long-term contract and switch around or management can't make up their minds what they want and it becomes a mess.

Personally don't like the newer art in fate of irnia and the art in shelter, the older art in fate was way better.

Shelter? Finished?
Must be a comedian or a clown, cause that's damn hilarious.
It goes from 0.34 and straight to 1.0 (Finished), and that's considered finished.

If that is the definition of a completed game, then the standards of gaming has dropped quite far indeed.

Side note:
There's a mod that supposedly adds content to the base game, though it actually being maintained, and continuing to add content is rather slim.
Not that I'm excusing the 1.0 release, I also think it jumped straight to an ending even though there still felt like there could've been more to it, but version numbers are completely made up anyway, they're not strictly, 0.01 - 1.00, increments of 0.01 or whatever, so it jumping from 0.34 to 1.00, doesn't really mean anything, it doesn't mean there should've been 66 more updates or even half that number, really only felt like they were a few updates off finishing up with it, but certainly not a single update though.

Version numbers are more of a way developers give themselves deadlines on when to finish a game, or give potential players the ability to make a very rough estimate of how much content can be expected (Not a reliable estimate though).
0.34 to 1.0 could be 66 more updates, or just 10 more. Depends on how significant the update is, and how much closer said update got the game to what the developer wants to finish it at.

Instead what you see with Shelter, is it got the slasher axe. Its life cruelly cut short by Jason.
I'd add more slasher-film/game references but those are the only two I can think of.

Anyways. You can also roughly interpret how many more updates can be expected dependent on the increments of previous updates, though that, like the other method, is unreliable at best.
(Excluding certain developers whom follow an easy-to-understand version numbering formula.)

Ngl though, I'd be unsurprised if the same thing happens to TFoI.
It's really following the same theme.
Lackluster updates that add little to no content, and then no updates.

Well if he is expecting support for his new game. He sure won't be getting it from me unless he comes back to this game and continues. This game so far is his best by far. Ive played shelter, just reminds me of fallout 4, which I didn't care for. And who isn't making a space game now.

I forgot all about Freddy...
The game realized it bit off more than it could chew when it had such grand aspirations during the Bite of '87.
It's life cut short by the Purple Man's axe.

Y'know, in hindsight, there's a lot of ways to use FNAF games as a reference for something being axed.

I don't get why people love Shelter so much, the characters just look weird to me, for all the "graphic enhancement" I much rather prefer the graphic this game has, or the artstyle whatever you want to call it. The other one is just ugly...

This game should have ended 2 years ago, shelter however was a rushed ending.

1. Irnia has 5 different artists. Saying it has a "style" is a stretch. The art looks all over the place.
2. Shrug. Well personally I disagree with you and think shelter art looks better. This is a matter of taste.
3. Shelter is not just graphics enhancement but also gameplay. Irnia has some questionable design decisions. (too many branches requiring too many replays... in a game about mind control). SHELTER simplifies it into only 2 routes, love (seduction) and mindbreak (typically via mind control). So you only need to play it twice.

well... regardless. starting a 3rd game with 2 unfinished ones doesn't look good.

The CG art looks good and realistic, the rest doesn't really matter to me. Shelter's art looks horrendous in both cases so I can just puke to it.

Welcome to the amazing world of personal taste, where different people like different things.
You said you don't get why people like shelter... well you have your answer. Their subjective personal tastes in art is different than yours.
You want to puke when you see the SHELTER art. I on the other hand want to fap when I see it.
There is no point in arguing about this

Shelter an Apocalyptic Tale was half-asked and rushed to completion leaving tons of story content unfinished after going afk for 3-4 months with no communication if you to know how bad check my posts. The Fate of Irnia is dead and has been since last summer. The dev has basically said fuck theses games and moved on to Stellar Dream. Always be careful who you support on Patreon. I do hope nobody is blind enough to support Winterlook moving forward.

I know dam well someone did a mod for shelter, that lets you have more than 1 girl pregnant at a time. And unless this recieves more content, 0 support will be given. Didn't even bother with Stellar Dream. :/
