Wait so, I'm curious if it's just me. I thought when they said Sunday or Monday, I thought they meant last Sunday or Monday since the tweet didn't specify any date and it was a few days before last Sunday or Monday so I assumed it was the Sunday or Monday that was coming up which was a week ago by now.

I don't mind waiting but updates and transparency on the situation is always appreciated especially when a day of release was given. I understand that you guys must be busy but at least just let us know you couldn't make it and I'm sure most of us would understand as life is unpredictable and things happen. But communication doesn't hurt. 

 But maybe I missed where they updated it somewhere else and if so, I apologize. 


Edit: Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It really helps to know I'm not alone in feeling this way. I was worried my comment might come off as too much or misunderstood, but reading your words made me feel heard, and honestly, relieved.

Also, I've seen a few people respond to concerns like this with “just be patient” and while I completely understand where they're coming from, I do want to gently point out that the issue here isn't really about impatience. It's not that we're demanding constant updates or rushing the creators, we understand that development takes time and life happens. What we're hoping for is just a bit more clarity and consistency, especially when a release day was mentioned and then passed with no follow-up.

Most of us aren't upset that it's taking a while, we're just feeling like we're left in the dark. A short message, even something like "hey, we hit a delay but we’re still going," makes all the difference. It's not about rushing anyone, it's about connection and trust. Needless to say, that this is a community within a community so connection really matters. And I say this because I do care deeply about this project and the people behind it.

I really do love this FVN, it means a lot to me. And I think it's because we care that we're hoping for a little more communication. Thanks again for being so understanding and respectful in how you shared your thoughts, it genuinely means a lot!

Thank you! I'm so happy it wasn't just me. I was afraid of posting this but I just had to.

Very much agree with you too. It's good to have something like monthly updates on the progress of game developments. It really helps keeping people hopeful, knowing that a project is at least making an inch of progress instead of being left in silence. I know that they've said they were busy playing Deltarune, but I only know that because of the comments here mentioning the message talking about that is on Twitter - which I don't use anymore because of very certain reasons - and not on here as a post. Communication is important.

If this sounds like I'm being harsh, sorry. I am not trying to sound like that, just giving out my opinion.

I really love this FVN so much :]

Many games/vns do in fact give updates often! And i totally think they should be doing updates on the progress more often not only just ones a month!

Thank you for your words. I don't think you were being harsh at all. You were just being honest, and you said it in such a thoughtful and respectful way. I completely agree that monthly updates or even small check-ins can really keep the community connected and hopeful, especially when so many of us are emotionally invested in the project. Communication, even when there's not much to report, still matters.
