Ah, so it was a freshness problem all along. Next time they should use more Mentos.

So, from 95% to 75% and, now, back to beginning? It may be looking good, but it stinks big time!

That's how things usually go when testing, though? If you find an issue, you go back and fix it, and then begin the relevant test process again? Or do you think testing is a linear process that should finish in X amount of time regardless of the findings of said test?

Again, that's exactly how it works. Test -> find issue -> fix issue -> create new fresh version for testing -> test again. Repeat until satisfied with the state of the version you last tested.

"Hi everyone, thanks for your patience regarding the next release. (R11)
I am currently testing a fresh new version and it is looking good, some minor things to correct but we should be good to release this weekend.
The release 12 is also developing very well, I would like to add content to the final version and things are looking nice!
Thanks and take care"

How come they haven't even given this game an Onhold after a year without updates? As always F95 looking away while picking his nose.

maybe get yourself acquainted with f95zone's rules, then?

On hold was not applied because the developer has not said that it's on hold, it's that simple.

Not obsess about how long it's been after reading posts from the devs either here or shared here about status of upcoming releases... Y'know, common sense.IT'S BEEN A YEAR...? wtf did we do all all summer?

Comment on their lastest post:

We were dotting some i's and streamlining some transitions until I compiled a more final game client and noticed that the sound wasn't working anymore and the client was giving out extremly nondiscriptive unhelpful messages. I usually do most of my fast testing in the editor because its a lot faster to work this way and to follow errors and problems / reload changes, and then i make actual clients for motkeyz to test. this was yesterday. Well During my investigation i found out it it wasn't just that the sound wasn't working the whole game client gave a lot of errors that were very undescriptive and unhelpful. Not much help from anyone else on the matter, only finding unrelated errors of similar style but not the same one. I had to do a bunch of deeper investigation, i initially thought that i had messed something up somewhere in the code, which was strange because it was stable before that, and it works flawlessly in the editor without any issue... . After several hours of investigating and trying to understand the actual issue, time that I really did not want to spend for this for obvious reasons, but rather to just wrap up. I came to the final conclusion that game has been getting too big, more specifically the main resource folder got too big. Once it hit over 4 gigabytes with the new animations and some extra soundtracks (about 4300mb total for chapter 2) it starts behaving in some strange ways making it seem as some files are not found and then throwing a bunch of errors and then finally crashing multiple systems that effects many aspects of the game. Right now i am doing some final touches and put aside solving the storage issue until the rest is complete, i already lost a lot of time unexpectedly investigating this issue. Honestly, I got very lucky in terms of figuring it out based on some previous knowledge, because this could have taken several days. At this point i am finishing what i was also doing yesterday before all this happened, and then have to decide what the best solution would be to avoid this issue. I managed to find one or two duplicate animations that i deleted but there is still a couple hundred megabytes that needs to be cleaned up. There are a couple of animations older Chapter 2 animations that are big that we could delete temporarily to get under the limit of 4gigs and get going temporarily and remove them from the game, and then work out a P1 where we do a better solution and put them back in, but honestly what i have read so far I have really no clue how much work it can take, some solutions involve some potentially substantial changes in the project. So we are going with the option of removing some animations for now, to not delay it with something that we do not know how long it could take. I am really gutted that this happened, it really does feel in many ways that the development of this release has been cursed in many ways but rest assured I am taking care of it. AESOUH

So 3 months of testing and suddenly everything is broken in the final build, promised weekend and now we are back to no release date
They have to remove animations to fix the issues but what if there is no animations to begin with

From "I am currently testing a fresh new version and it is looking good, some minor things to correct ..." to this, in less than a week. Good job!
Unity seems to have a hard limit for the resource file at 4GB. And those pictures are most likely all stored as textures in that single file.
feels like it's someone who ended up in Aorrta circle of friends with excuses all the time
Motkeyz, you might want to add a link for SubscribeStar next to your Patreon link on page 1. I do not do business with Patreon anymore and I know there are others like me.
When you get the newest update finished, I'll re-subscribe on SubscribeStar. Paying $5 a month for nearly a year without updates is a bit ridiculous. I do enjoy the game, but $50-$60 an update is too much.
