There are two versions of the game... The original version and the upgraded / re-do version. The original version has been ongoing for nine years and I just released the final episode (episode 25) on Patreon in December. However, the artwork in the first 17 episodes of the original game is very dated and of much lower quality than the later episodes. So.. to get it ready for steam, I am upgrading... Re-doing ALL of the artwork, plus editing the script (re-doing / extending existing scenes, plus adding new scenes / content). The version on Steam (Season 1) is the upgraded version and covers the first 10 episodes of the original game (plus a lot of new content). We are currently working on Season 2 which continues the upgraded / re-do.
Ah, I see. Thanks for clarifying. It's actually not available for sale on itch, yet. I just use itch for communications. It's available directly on steam or on my Patreon. Or if for some reason, you can't use those paths, but would still like to purchase, let me know and I'll figure something out for you. Thanks.
More money from whom? People can get it from Patreon OR Steam. Nobody needs to double pay. Your comments are so mis-informed, it is obvious that you have never been a patron (so never paid for the game in any forum). If you WERE a patron, you would know the reasons for the re-do (because patrons were well-informed throughout the process and were given options to unsubscribe or get a refund at any time).
Episode 25 will be the last episode / end of the story. Remastered Season 1 = Upgrade of episodes 1-10. Not sure yet what the episode breakout will be for season 2,3, etc. as every episode got a lot bigger than preceding ones (e.g. episode 24 was 10 times bigger than episode 1). Season 1 will hit Steam in November, then we prioritize episode 25 and figure out a plan for Season 2.
It's not stopped. It's paused. There will be two versions. The original which will run from episode 1-25 (episode 25 will be the final episode) and then the re-do / re-mastered version. Because there will be so many changes, the two versions will be incompatible. BUT, I have not given up on the original. Currently working on the re-do Season 1 (which is the re-master version of episodes 1-10). That will be complete in the next two months. Then I will go back and finish the original game / episode 25.
The re-do and the original game are not compatible. We have changed so much in the re-do / upgrade that it needs to be treated as a separate game (we changed script / variables / paths / options, etc. as well as all of the art). But when episode 25 comes out, it WILL be compatible with your previous / original game saves, so all is not lost.
As some of you may know, WTHI is being upgraded with a complete refresh of ALL artwork, the addition of animations and a full overhaul of the script, plus many new scenes. This is in prep for a forthcoming Steam release. I have posted a demo of the upgraded game. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks,

Save games will always carry forward when you download the new versions, so no worries about losing data
All episodes are included in each release. So ep9 = ep1-9. ep10 = ep1-10, etc.
