Mathmatically speaking, isn't 0.10 lower than 0.9? HahahaThe next update is 0.10, not 1.0, and it won't be the last.
If you read some earliers posts, you'll see that there wasn't much content added because he was busy getting things ready for Steam release, and he paused payments on some periods he wasn't working on it.I tried the game for the first time and i really liked it, there isn't many games with a decent story and content and graphics and to be honest i decided to become a donator just to help the dev a tiny bit but then i checked his patreon page and i checked last 3 release dates (0.8, 0.9a and 0.9 steam version) and i realized there was like 7 months in between those release dates. Tbh i think 7 months between releases is a very long waiting time especially when i consider the updates are not very big (mb/gb wise) and the difference between 0.9a and 0.9 steam version is very slim (content wise) i decided not to. Now i didn't type all this stuff to criticize or anything like that, i genuinely liked the game and i wanted to express my only discontent about it. I saw the same pattern in other good games (good games but very slow updates for example a wife and a mother) the problem is , most developers want to reach to a bigger audience/player base but when there is such a huge time gap between patches only the most dedicated fans will remain loyal and majority will lose interest over time and as they lose interest -> the dev will get less support and he will also lose interest/will to develop the game faster etc. So i believe if he spends a lilttle bit less time thinking about very tiny details in the story and/or posing and stuff and focus a little bit more on delivering the episodes faster both the dev and most of the players /subs (you can never please everybody) will be happier. I know , i'd sub his patreon if he'd deliver more episodes each year... nothing crazy i'd probably sub for 10£ but i think some other ppl would do so aswell.
And if you buy the game on Steam or Itch.io, you'll have the updates without having to spend more, and also he give the games for those whose total money spent on Patreon surpasses the game price.
