Panty Tease complete

I'd recommend dousing it then.

YummyTiger Gaming

I hope so. I'm on a terrible artwork streak this week. I've literally thrown out the last 3 attempts I made on Aylia's pride variations for this pic.

YummyTiger Gaming

It would take some more work, and I'll definitely weigh that. Thanks for the vote.

YummyTiger Gaming

I wouldn't even mention this if it was a matter of 24-48 hours. It would be more time to finish than that.

YummyTiger Gaming

In an attempt to curb my optimism and be a realist. I'd say it is looking like early 2017 for chapter 5 at this point. Who knows, maybe I'll have a magic couple of months and get a crazy amount of shit done, but given my track record, I'd estimate 2-3 months per chapter, which puts me in early 2017. Still, if I can step things up, that should give people plenty of game to play this year.

YummyTiger Gaming

Did YT get food poisoning again?

Nine Horse Hitch

The fire is rising

So when are we getting an update on the situation? Any ETA on anything or at least a progress report?

Blorken Shfeel

"Alright, god, lifted my dress. Now could you put down the gun, please?"

Not Telling

Siting here waiting for YT to post something and trying to figure out what type of face she is make. I would say surprised and confused but despite what she doing not enraged Which is not what we seen from her in the prolong. Seems like a little green guy has had some affect on over this time.

Nine Horse Hitch

I'd say go for pieces, unless like others said you're really within a month of finishing. But, if it's not quite done by July, think you should release what you have, get us beta testing and bug finding.

Alex

I'd say that the release style decision should be up to you, in that you should pursue whichever one you feel will keep you motivated and interested. It's worthwhile to note that these sorts of projects classically die when the creator runs out of steam, and I think everyone here, especially you, would like to see a full finished game someday. So, I'm certainly in no rush - release the content at whatever rate lets you feel proud and stay interested.

i throwing my vote into full release

split it up!

Everything will be together in one whole game. When I talk about chapters, I'm talking about release plans. Chapter 2 will be added to chapter 1, chapter 3 will be added to 1 and 2, and so on. Ultimately, you'll have a huge 40+ hours experience with loads of H goodness. That is also why it is imperative I get save transfers working before chapter 2. It would tire quickly to have to replay 10+ hours every time a new release is done.

YummyTiger Gaming

Will seeing how chp 1 wasn't per the update i say as a whole.

Nine Horse Hitch

agreed, can't wait for aylia's story to be released. i vote for a half

Swagmaster Supreme

agreed

Swagmaster Supreme

agreed 100%

Swagmaster Supreme

I think it depends on how close you are to release. If we aren't going to see chapter one in 2016, then pieces. If its within the realm of June/July, the whole thing. As you've already charged patreons, getting a part of the content out sooner rather than the whole content out extremely late is more preferable.

Dumai12

Honestly chunks sounds fine because i am really excited for this game

Cory Carson

YT how does this sound? I have no issues with splitting episode 1 in 2 parts, but what about making a gold edition or some shiet like that after you finish the whole game and once things start running smoothly, heck I would pay and update pledge for a gold version if I could have it all together in one single game <3

Furanky

It depends. How much time do you need at least? I don't mind in pieces, if there's only two parts, but then I'd get the feel it would take longer for the second chunk to get out. I have the feeling you won't be able to release the full chapter before July, so I wouldn't mind finally trying your game sooner rather than later.

I´d like to see the full too ! ^^

Thus far tentatively, some people didn't really give definitive answers but its looking like. Pieces - 12 : Full - 26

Karmaldia

in pieces please

hazzamoffin

I preffer in pieces, but do it however you want.

Purok

In pieces is my vote.

I say whole chapter. Or when the second part come in, I would had forget what I was doing mid-game.

Thongtham Chongmesuk

My vote is for the full chapter release please.

cvonsuela28

I second that. I dedicate the first 5 years of my ghost life to haunting YT and guilting him like scrooge mcduck on christmas eve for not releasing the game before my death. hashtag signed the pledge.

Blorken Shfeel

Personally my vote goes towards the whole chapter being released at once. Waited far longer for things that gave less then satisfactory entertainment. Knowing I'll play this for forever and a day, I can wait a few more weeks/months. If I die before then I know whom I shall be haunting.

Karmaldia

I rather just play the whole chapter than in bitesize chunks. I don't want to break immersion after two hours session. I want more!

My vote goes to releasing the whole chapter.

LOLGame

Should be whole since it easy to find bug and do them one time instead of going back and forth, but that might be me.

nozero

@Yummytiger - Either way do you think we could get chapter 1 before july? that's all i care about :), so whichever way does that works for me. Sooner than better

Swagmaster Supreme

I'll be super simple. Hot pic, really like it. Release Chapter 1 as a whole. Not in chunks.

InsaneBrain

Honestly I have thought about this a lot today, and while I do really want the split, from a strategic viewpoint, giving all of us the whole chapter 1 will then let you finish any bugs and move on rather than going back to fix half before the other half comes out. (Which I have a feeling your pride in your game would cause that to happen.)

Triune

As long as it isn't a several week split between the two I'd like all in one. Like if you release chapter 1 halfway and then a day or two later the other half then that's fine, but if it's going to cause the full release to be slower then just deliver all at once

Blorken Shfeel

Pro's and cons to both ways naturally. It's probably better to release it all at once, but I doubt I'm the only one who just plain wants to progress and see how it's going. I'd like to see it (or at least part of it) sooner, but it's probably a better idea to release it as a chapter. I'm fine with either decision really.

raska42

I vote for whole chapter

Lilith Iden

I vote for whole chapter. Splitting seems like it would create more problems than it is worth.

Flying Lizard

I'm extremely impatient so I'd rather have the first half now.

Splitting sounds like it would actually take more work, and push the completed Chapter 1 farther out - if for no other reason than testing some first-half saves to make sure they do actually work with the both-halves release. I'm on Team Whole Chapter.

I'll be waiting for the whole thing. Enjoy your weekend! :)

Amptitude

I'm fairly tense lately, by the lack of any H-game creator releases over the past few months :D I already spent the money i was going to pledge for Aylia, so i approve of the idea of giving us the first chunk for free :D

skeev

To explain myself; If it really would be as easy as it's made out to be in the text, I would prefer the two halves so I could re-play the first part while waiting. Possibly try unlocking and exploring everything in the game. On the other hand I don't want any more delays - this project has had enough i.m.o.

Systematic Chaos

if it would mean getting it in a timely manner, I would prefer splitting chapter 1. However, if that would only be slightly faster or would cause a lot of extra work, I'd rather wait. Don't want any unnecessary delays...

Systematic Chaos

I am of the mind of getting the whole chapter one release. The entirety of my hype train has left the station for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 with the trailer that was released yesterday.

ArdenW

just release it in two halves imo

BTW looove this art for Aylia. Very good work. ;)

Blorken Shfeel

Yeah if the entirety of chapter 1 is going to be released within a day of each other (you said in an earlier comment on this thread) I'd rather just wait for the full thing. It'd be better than being cut off halfway through the chapter and need to wait 24-48 hours to see the end of it. Really looking forward to this. It's such a playful, fun storyline and I really like Alyia's character. It's exciting to see it finally coming to fruition.

Blorken Shfeel

I think I might just go ahead and wait for the full game at this point, if it's still getting released this year ^^

Dehkia

I'll have the full chapter, thank you very much...

J_M

Chunks seems like a better option, especially counting all the delays

Shirafune

Well, I'd say go with the chunks' option.

MasterQi

I prefer The FULL thing.. if you do chunks meh I wont play it and will still wait for the WHOLE thing. because I want to immerse myself into the game.. not a chunk of it.

James

If you can expect the second half in a week( two maybe three with delays), I'd say go for the big release, if not then just release them as separate chapters maybe. Why can't the second half just be the new chapter two?

I'd prefer to get it in chunks at this point since I've been exciting about it for months.

Well, even if you did hand it to us in chunks, the other half wouldn't be too far behind. I'm still alright either way, though.

Not Telling

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

YummyTiger Gaming

Any release will go to $10 pledgers first. They'll have it for 1-2 days to identify any major bugs. Then it'll go to all patrons. I'm more confident in Aylia's Story than I was in Hunter's Quest. It is my game after all. Meaning, I'd be shocked if it went as poorly, so probably looking at a day between releases.

YummyTiger Gaming

Not sure what you expect me to do about that. I can offer a refund, aside from that, not much else. I've already said I won't give another release date unless it is done and in testing. That's about the best I can do in that regard. As for when it'll be released, I don't know.

YummyTiger Gaming

Depends, I guess. I wouldn't mind getting chunks, but I do have a question. Is this for $10 tier or not? When you say that you wouldn't run a pledged update, does that mean that only those who paid the $10 so far would get it? It says the $10 tier get chapters 2-5. Or is that just beta and everyone get everything eventually? Just wondering how it will go.

It's evil to have her wearing those undies.

Lee Thompson

I'm not sure how close you feel to releasing Chapter 1, but personally if you think you can release the full chapter this month I'd wait and just release the full product, but if you feel like it will be a over a month yet I would say just release the first part of the chapter.

thswherizat

It's a beta though... It's not fully finished and you get it early. It should be expected to be buggy.

"few more weeks" will be months though

Finally, a plan I can get behind more fully. This is the kind of thing I have been kinda hoping would eventuate. I would like to make it clear that I ONLY speak for myself when I say this, as I have tried to do on a couple of occasions up to this point, but seem to be too broad. There has been a lot of waiting when it comes to Aylia's story, which tbh I've come to expect. I've also come to expect missed release dates, but what are you gonna do about that? Not trying to dump on anything, I'm hyped, think it will be great etc. The waiting will make it better ofc. However, my main concern/suggestion has been you getting something that we can actually use. Splitting it into two parts is a good idea, assuming we get the first part sometime within a few weeks, which i dont really think will happen anyway, but we can always hold out hope.

I'll wait for the full chapter. But I see no harm from releasing it in two parts, for those eager to get some Aylia as soon as possible.

stoperArt

I say stick to the original plan. Full chapter 1.

Martin

I agree with Unusual Alias, you should release a fully finished Chapter 1, even if it takes a new month to get it. Most of us are ready to wait a little more as long as the quality is here. Don't get it wrong please, but you released Hunter Quest too early to try to please some of us and the version was really buggy and doesn't reflect the amount of work you putted in. English isn't my first language so sorry if it's not really clear. In my opinion, people will forgive a long wait if quality is here, but they may become even more angry if finally the product is uncomplete.

TheBob

Nice

In my opinion, you should wait til you're fully finished chapter 1. I've waited this long, a few more weeks won't kill me or erode my faith in you. The big upside I do see to a chunked release is that you'd get some feedback on bugs, and that's a big deal. It would mean a more polished full release for chapter 1 which I could then sink my teeth into. So I guess, ultimately I'd be fine with you going either way.

UnusualAlias

Would rather just wait till ch1 is done personally. That said I am capable of just ignoring it till you release the full Ch1 so I guess it doesn't really matter.

Pengy99

I am all for that!
