"Hi everyone, it has been some time since the last update news.
I would like to update the progress on the steam version and also the dlsite version. (including versions on the other platforms)
-. Steam version would be on quarter 4 2023. Initially we plan to release the steam version at Quarter 2 to 3. However, our publisher has a high standard on the game quality and would need to make some changes(including visually and programming-side). Some of the art assets will be redrawn to better target most of the potential players on steam, which means the game arts will look slightly different on steam(in my own opinion it is going to be more Europe-American style drawing, but please do not quote me on this).
Potential changes include the CGs(the redrawing will make them more consistant), some of the pixel art animations(to look more smooth) and also the programming engine(game might be reprogrammed in godot so that the game size could be way smaller). This is a very bold decision and I have been negotiating with the publihser for a few months regarding this. At the end, I would like to give it a try since our publihser is way more experienced than us in game production and also it could make this game more polished than the current version, which means it would bring a much better game experience to our players. The current deadline for these changes is December 2023.
-. Dlsite version is supposed to be released in June, but there are a lot of translation and voice recording going on at the moment. Therefore, we would have to take some more time. A potential release date is in July though the actual date could vary a bit.
We understand this news could be frustrating and we are sorry again for the delay."
We need to just wait, will be better.
And constant delays, I don't think that working with this publisher was a good idea.
I think I will not buy it on steam ever. (part of the reason is last time delays) And I personally don't like the idea of art style changes and ♥♥♥♥♥ US censorship.
I hope developer WILL hear us and will change his mind.
What does this mean??
I really hope the artstyle is still anime-like, just like the previous version.
If not anime-like, i will not buy
Welp, guess I'll stop looking forward to this game in general. Time to remove it from my wishlist.
Well, as an American I can congratulate you on losing one of the members of your new "intended audience"
Another delay would be fine if it results in improved game, but this delay actually makes it worse. I'm european and I don't want my japanese porn to be western styled. If iI wanted western style porn, I would look for it. This is starting to look more like the Maho Mating - constant dealys, then change to western art-style with (in my opinion worse) character redesigns to fit western concept of magical girl, and probably more delays to come. I'm removing this from my wishlist.
oh boy... this sounds like there going through Development hell....
Naidong would be the main artist for the CG change. https://twitter.com/game00984/status/1667023299661135872
And they are changing the game engine from unity to godot. There are a lot of questions, one of them is for example can godot do life2d animations?
But as far as I understand, they are rebuilding the game from 0. And original DEV is not deeply involved in it. He just approves the art and other things. BUT the dlsite version of the game will still be on unity, and THIS is the version he is working on.
SO we will have 2 DIFFERENT versions of the same game concept but on different engines and with different art.
