All good bro everyone has their own point of views ...likes and dislikes. i just feel 6 months is too long .i lose interest and have forgotten the characters already. 3 months is my wait limit i rate or ill wait till the game is completed

While I sort of agree with you. Mainly looking at it from a monetary perspective. I feel like if they did smaller updates more frequently their Patreon would explode with subs. I do think they're hurting themselves by doing 6-month releases without the fanbase that say DPC has. I love this game and want them to succeed but I can't justify patreoning for 2 updates a year.

Now, if this is just their pet project and not their main source of income then good for them. No reason to cater to other's that don't have the same vision.

idk, no point in playing a new update thats only like 20 mins long. imo. It takes a long time because they have to draw everything by hand. Then animate. I wont be playing this game until its done, which will probably be like in 5 years or longer.

I suppose there's no helping the current reactions, we're at the "antsy" period now just like the Lana update before.

This game is their only source of income and I think they are doing pretty well on Patreon. Also, if you like their work you don't need to keep your subscription active during the whole development period, you are free to throw them some bucks only after each release or whenever you feel like it.

I'll be dead by then mate.

Well, at least the support on Patreon is good enough that they aren't struggling. I know they have kids. No idea where they live but I wonder how much a little less than $100k a year is providing them between basically two incomes. Hopefully enough to be comfortable.

They live in a not specially expensive part of Spain. They are getting a comfortable amount, I guess, even after Patreon cut, taxes and healthcare. They are not getting rich but they can build up some savings

This game could make them rich, and I hope it does!

I seem to recall past comments that they didnt want to reveal Chestnut's real name because she also did work in a non-lewd environment and didnt want it to be affected as a result.

Maybe it's just freelance work, but still, concerns about being labeled "porn artist".

Fuck. Now I can't unsee it.

Suffer with me

we really do not need too much about them. its nice they let slip some things, like birthdays and anniversaries, it does make a more personal connection. but if you post on here and call him, Pistachio, you will get an answer to any question. Shakespeare said, a rose will still smell as sweet as if called by any other name

This is pretty typical for a lot of people with other jobs outside of the lewd field. The credits for the voice actors in the game "House Party" only list maybe 4-5 of the like 13-15 VA's in the game because they chose not to have their names included.

Of course it's common. Even authors that write bodice rippers often use pseudonyms (male writers using a woman's name, for example) to separate their more "high brow" writings.

I was only pointing at that there was a comment way back regarding how Chestnut had other work in response to someone making a comment about how WAL was their only source of income.

Just to clarify: she had another work, they are only working on WaL now as it's more than enough for them.

While this is true. She may not want this game to be associated with whatever work she has done in the past outside of the industry. Really no reason to associate your real name with a lewd game. Unless you need recognition for other endevours in the same industry.

Hi, everybody.
Hope you're all doing great.
First, I've already issued the refunds for all of you who joined recently in the final days of Feb and kept your subscription for March. If I've missed you, please do send me a message, and I'll fix it ASAP.
Now the report:

Chestnut:
She finished the artwork needed for the first sex scene and has prepared the base images for the second sex scene. She has also completed all of the stuff we needed for Jebediah's character and advanced a bit more on one of the cutscenes. Unfortunately, given that everything she was working on was incredibly spoilery (sexy stuff, holding objects in hands, etc.), we couldn't record any videos, but she says for the next week, she will make sure to allocate time to either record a video or prepare a sharable spoiler image.

Pistachio:
I finished animating the first sex scene and did some testing and editing on Rose's final quest, which involved writing a few new dialogues (and changing two of the existing ones), and reposing them. Lastly, I have been working on animating the second sex scene, using the base art Chestnut gave me, and I should have it ready by the end of the weekend.

What's next:
I want to finish the second sex scene, send it to Chestnut for the final editing of the frames (adding the fluids and fixing the messed up meshes), and then if the art is ready, start work on the third sex scene, or alternatively keep working on the parts of the game that need improving if the artworks are not ready.
Chestnut will prepare the base layered artwork for the sex scene and then work on additional sprite and cutscene elements she has to complete or start.

A lot more work is left, and we have a ton of polishing to do, but seeing the sexy stuff added to the game is awesome.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Cheers

Hey. It's been a while since my last post here

Got a question about the next update, it's not really a spoilery Rose spoiler but I'll spoiler it anyway.

Awesome game! Wish to see footjob scenes though

Does anyone know what the pieces of art / day rate of the Myrtle update (0.4) was?
If the rate of the 0.5 update stands (and untill now it does) which was about 1 piece of art done / day, we're looking at a late May release date for the 0.6 update.
It's a rough estimate but it kind of worked to guess the release date for the previous update.
Thanks.
