Devs of EOLOstudios, when the public release of MTWY Chapter 20???  it is beyond 7 days after the exclusive release, i hope you did not slacking off with your development, to be honest your schedule of release of your versions are always delayed just like my monthly salary, next time please make it in time okay? Thank you

Developer (1 edit) (+2)

First off, our public release is now a chapter or version behind the exclusive release. It was announced on our other platforms but not here, that is my mistake, and for that I apologize. Having the Public Release only a few days after the Exclusive is hindering paying supporters rather than encouraging them since we're on a by-chapter basis, it also gives them more incentive to look forward to as soon as they pledge/subscribe.

Secondly, regarding our release schedule, which is mostly off/delayed because of the development, comparing the recent chapters to the previous ones that were on time-ish, every single one of them was larger in scope and scale. 
Chapters that were released within 20–25 days were all smaller than those that hit a month. 
I've avoided mentioning this, but it looks like it's needed, there's no other game in this genre that has a better content-to-time ratio than ours
I've thought about this, cutting a chapter by half and naming it so to make sure there's a release that's on time, but it will only mess up the pacing of both the developer and the user since we're on a manga-esque schedule and pace. Half a chapter in 20–22 days is worse than a whole chapter in 30-34 days

The three week release schedule posted in our page was estimated for chapters 11–13, and it mostly hit around that sweet spot til about chapter 16. 
Chapters 16-20 are 1.5x bigger than chapters 11-13. If our content dwindled in quality and quantity compared to our time taken then that'll be a cause for concern.

Of course we are trying our best to shorten the time taken, but I'd rather take longer and make sure the quality is at its peak and even then, there are re-edits post-release, and we also have to work to survive. If we could do this solely for a living then damn, why not? Hopefully, that happens.

We're currently in the process of re-rendering book 1, which will take a month in estimate, this was cleared with our paying supporters and the poll for it went 17:1. 
Chapter 20 will hit the public once the re-rendered version of book 1 is released exclusively. 

Lastly, I regularly check and reply to our pages, do not spam your post especially if it's only been 2 hours since your first. We'll get to you eventually. -LO

ohhh i see, sorry for spamming post because of my internet here in our place it's too slow like a turtle, then next about the schedule of public release if chapter 16 to 20 is so big that can finish in 30-34 days, it okay and understandable, i expect some good content from you guys😊 i think the release of chapter 20 within 4th week of febuary or early march, correct me if im wrong.

and lastly i am looking forward to the Book 3 of MTWY, i started playing your game since the release of chapter 9 in Book 1 😊


Thank you and God Bless
