So first things first, I can not state how much this Vn was enjoyable to read. The main protagonist is well-written and has a catchy identity. For now, the three love interests we can interact with are interesting, each has a level of depth I wasn't expecting.

For me the Pro's are

  • Great Story
  • The Old Sprites (Though I do enjoy the new ones, the old ones grew on me)
  • Well Writen Protaginist

The only Con for me is:

  • There is a lack of updates on the communication front. Not that I hold any negativity or hate just a little let down. I got done playing through version 1.8.2 and was incredibly overtaken by wanting to read on. Going to Patreon and giving a pledge to get early access to version 1.9 and it left me feeling stunned. Though I will admit half of this is my fault for not reading posting time stamps. Since the last update on Patreon was in August. Even headed to the discord after to check about development progress only to see that the discord was also rather lacking in information as well.


Over all this is a great Visual Novel with a lot going for it. However, that being said it does feel like it's almost been abandoned. I do hope that the people working on this know what is there is amazing. Just wish there was more communication about the status of the project. With all this being said, I would highly recommend a read-through of the public version (1.8.2).

Hello!

Thanks for the feedback!

Sorry about the lack of communication, I've been working on a devlog to post but I guess I'll reply to this with what I was going to write there, and make a separate post later (work day >///<)

Rest assured this project isn't abandoned, the Patreon update is coming soon and (as posted in the Discord before) anyone who has donated since before the rewrites has been promised (and will receive) the update in their Patreon DMs!
I had meant to make a dedicated post on Patreon to reflect this, but I actually just plum forgot to, which is my bad! I'm sorry for that!
I will absolutely make it a priority to try to keep people updated on these things.

That said, the new Patron update has a new main theme song (composed by Camazule for Wayfinder, with potentially another song coming in the public update), a new CG with 20 variants of lighting and pose (and Tehngo is going to be working on another, 3-image CG for this same day), a bonus scene and the entirety of the next in-game day featuring the first hangout with Arkyn!

All told, after a few weeks for Patrons, the update that goes public is going to be the first three in-game days with the rewrites, two bonus scenes, all new sprites for the characters, and any CGs and new songs we're able to finish. I plan on releasing the next Patron update within a few weeks of this upcoming one, as that's entirely written and I just need to (struggle to) code it (and hopefully get the CGs for that day in as well)!

Thank you for your patience, apologies again for the lack of communication!

I hope you continue to enjoy Wayfinder!

Be safe~

Honestly, the reply is something I never expected however I am delighted to see and hear what's in store for the future of Wayfinder.

I hope the production of these updates goes smoothly, that you take the time needed to enjoy making the Visual Novel, and that the Visual Novel turns out better than before.

Thank you for the response back, the communication is 100% appreciated.
