The real salt in the wound is that the dev explicitly said early on that they aren't one of those devs that will abandon things or go on hiatus for months without letting their supporters know what's happening. Queue "So that was a fucking lie" meme.
Well, maybe the developer is in one of those places from which people don't talk, like a cemetery. Maybe the Covid-19 pandemic took him. It is always a possibility.

Didn't hear from a friend for weeks, turns out they got hit by a truck on their way to a job interview. These things do really happen. Other friends had to reach out to friend's brother to find out. Friend won't be out of the hospital for months. They can't chat because a) they're mangled up b) their phone and laptop were in the car, too, with the same result.

I would only suspect lies and foul play if the dev had been making repeated empty promises and dragging their feet. (While optionally sitting on a huge Patreon account, which I don't think is the case here.)

You're not wrong. There could be any number of reasons, and it does no good to take it personally or get upset about it. Just sucks. Game was really good.

This game had a lot of potential, but... potential was really all it had and the execution was lacking, in my opinion.
Given that its main source of inspiration seemed to be those old-school "magic shop" games where you'd pick two potion ingredients/magic words/etc. and see what outcome you'd get, this game was a little too complex on all fronts for that formula. In those you'd only have to pick two things and instantly see results, allowing for rapid-fire experimentation. Instead, this game had multiple layers of puzzle-solving for its gameplay with the chance to outright fail if you didn't do something right, but still wasn't anything exciting.

Now, a "magic shop" game where the resulting scenes are more complex than just a single pose or looping animation? Could have some potential, but I feel like it was hampered by the scenes being of wildly different quality and intensity. Potion to turn the girl into a futa ends with her jizzing a few spurts of cum while having her dick touch a hot surface, but another potion fills her head with visions of another student's wack-ass incestuous life at home? Wearing the all-girls' school uniform is just... a skimpy outfit, yet a different potion ends up with her experiencing the memories of someone else getting fucked by a tree.

Ultimately I feel like the end result of the whole game was... middling at best. The occasional esoteric puzzle didn't really justify some of the blander scenes, and the in-depth scenes didn't really make up for the "just clicking on things in the right order at the right time" gameplay.

Just wanted to add onto this, He's alive now and is going to be updating the game soon thankfully, He wanted to rework the entire game and just got mega busy with his job. EDIT, proof is in the discord if anyone else lurks there " No good excuse. Just got unhappy with parts of the game and wanted to redo them but then got a bit overwhelmed by the amount of work required. + my day job got fairly busy. "
And here's his word explanation
