You are the one keeps saying it's just a delay mistake when the truth is it's not just a delay, WWG did lie,
but i'm agreeing with you?

i'm saying the delay is the lie. I'm just saying don't split it into two. (that's a screenshot above, but it blends with the background)
You are the one keeps saying it's just a delay mistake when the truth is it's not just a delay, WWG did lie, at least this whole month about the date of the update, weather you liked or not that's not called a mistake, A mistake is one someone does something unintentionally, lying a whole month is not a mistake in my book speacilfy when it comes from a dev I like.
We don't know if he for sure if he actually thought he could get it out by the end of this month. He could have thought if he we slept less and worked more, it could be possible and only realizing now that it was not possible. On the 15th he could have still believed it was possible.

So can this get the abandoned tag now? Over a year with no new content and the creator is obviously stringing people along with drop feed status updates in order to retain subs.

I feel bad for new players who come across this game and getting a Game of Thrones situation and not the one they had intended on getting.

Do you even know what the abandoned tag means? For this site specifically.

A few months DOES sound too farfetched for it to not be an April fools prank, and the whole family troubles since December as far as I remember the dude hasn't ever aluded to something like that, so to just use it NOW right on dead line?

BUT if this is true and the delay is truly for a few months, then the 'cry babies' and all the like are 100% right. Then again I've said it a few times already, the only way the dev is getting money out of me is with a steam release so that's why I'm just giving my 2 cents that I'm leaning more for a prank.

He knew the game wouldn't be ready in March, but he hid it to continue receiving his payment. In a way, it's a scam. He's had extensions and extensions since January, and now he comes out at the end of the month to say the update isn't ready. I think he's just stretching it as much as he can to continue his golden goose. I'm really disappointed with this latest news and I think everyone should cancel their subscriptions to see if he's really going to continue with the extensions.

If it turns out to be an April Fool's joke, I think it's in very bad taste.

Having been a Developer of actual video games, both Indie and medium-large Dev studios, WWG has without question, known for quite some time that their release was not on track and could've let the community know. But on the flip-side, they aren't exactly ICSTOR or DarkCookie, so I'm not torn up about it lol. Even factoring in a one-man team relative to the size of the game in animations, writing, etc, a Chapter of this size still would've been completed a long time ago and either released as Beta and use the consumers as play testers, or perform their own QA process, or as the consumers see it "kicking the can down the road" :ROFLMAO: I understand real-life issues and their priorities, but this communication was still handled very poorly, track record or not.

I am disappointed as well, but there are still other games on here for people to try or enjoy and can come back to Power Vacuum when they get around to it, but you shouldn't put all your eggs in a Ren'Py Dev basket. It is what it is. If you have a bad taste and are a supporter, your finances are your own to control and distribute as you see fit and you can rectify that.

It's literally April 1st somewhere in the universe right now. Just admit you guys got got by the best developer in the universe and get ready to get on your knees and apologize.
I don't want to be that guy, but the first place on earth does not start April 1st for another 30 hours and 45 minutes. :)

Just release what we got right now and say its a WIP at this point tho
The way the game works, it wouldn't be possible. It usually wants you to play up to a certain portain of each girl to unlock more of another girl. it would be impossible to just do all of Cath for example. It would ruin the flow of the story if it's meant to be played with other girls stories in-between/mixed.
