On their Discord, Devs just said that it'll be in testers hands tomorrow, and the rest of us shortly after.
Why estimate a few days if the testing and defect resolution would take at least a week?here's the exact quote:
Today at 5:21 PM
So I figure it's time to address this and break the good news. Yes, the update is basically ready... with the exception of two final scenes (which are relatively small in scale). Alorth's working his fingers off to get these ready, but we must cut him a little slack as he's not been feeling well and I'm also largely to blame for us cutting it so closely to the 2. That said... the good news is, the game will be in testers hands tomorrow, and we'll get it into your hands as soon as humanly possible after. Please allow us a few hours of leeway if possible, bear and mind that time-zones vary,, and just know that we're working hard on it / to get it to you!
takeaways:
beta testing shouldn't be rushed as there could be game-breaking bugs that could delay release even further. it's encouraging that we are close, but we could be still far away if issues are unearthed during testing. i would go as far as another week or so.
its nice to have a little warning tbf i come here ( good job by the way f95I been watching this thread for a while. I have to admit that I am really enthusiastic about the next update. I didnt post anything because there are enough of these posts.
What's with all the sarcasm on this thread? I didnt pay so I dont have the right to *demand* and Even if I payed it doesnt mean that I bought the devs with my 5 bucks. You know, shitt happens. Sometimes things dont go the way they were planned to.
Why people are putting so much pressure now that the update is under the final touches?
It is not like whining and venting on a thread that has no devs. The devs are here and they read the posts and things are kinda getting toxic.
It's suck at Version: 0.1.2Where it at.
Now let's just hope the testers work diligently and quickly.RK Studios said:Update will be released to testers a little later today (the 2nd), and given to patrons as soon as testing is completed.
"Being pushed to testers" is under the umbrella term "final touches".Final touches? lol They still got 2 more scenes, and with their speed i suppose November 3rd 2021 real data for next update.
Look just one post above your post. Read the quote. If that is not final touches then I dont know what is. I mean you waited for what 7 months? Cant you wait for testing?Final touches? lol
I feel they should add a "Longass Wait for Updates" tag.I feel some threads should carry a Toxicity warning.

As a tester for another VN I can tell you that we do our utmost to make everything as fast as possible... It just depends on how many branches there are, looking for gallery updating, grammar, renders, sound and continuity. All these things are checked, and reported back. If everything checks out then it can be posted without delay.I feel some threads should carry a Toxicity warning.

Final touches for the last 4 months xDWhy people are putting so much pressure now that the update is under the final touches?
It would seem the update is only partially being given to testers. Alorth is still working on it so part is being held back.I'm curious to know if the update has been released yet for "testers" yet? I'm not even in a hurry to play this game as my interest in this game has died out over the last few months, but patreons shouldn't be treated this way. When do the none testers/patreons get it, next year? Inb4 "beta testers" find a game breaking bug and the official release is delayed next month or next year.
Except the testers only got it yesterday. So your quip is null and void.Final touches for the last 4 months xD
What's wrong with Unity? It's a much larger sandbox requiring more skill and diligence from developers to pull off properly, it doesn't hold your hand as much. However using it instead of Ren'Py for slide renders is akin to masochism.Thank god it's not on unity
