Ok, so the game IS being worked on, it's just that the deb doesn't use itch on a "yearly" basis, but current (24/05) progress is:
Art: 40%
Writting: 90%
Coding:40%
This is for version 0.2.1b, and it appears that in 16 days (from the 8th to the 24th of May) the deb made 20% of art and coding, so making an estimate, and asuming 8 extra days for the remaining 10% of code, if they keep the same pace the next update could be in ~56 days, or the 27th of July
