If the devs are anywhere near or even in a warzone, that's quite certain, yeah...
Too much crap going on outside in the real World, that can easily put creative spirits on edge and block them up. Since usually for a good story to be born into existence, it needs a certain "sense of safety" to be vulnerable enough to "listen to the Muse(s)" and bring the creative and relatively complex idea into existence...
Since with too under-complex concepts, people are far too easily getting bored - if there aren't enough layers and plot-twists, things can easily get "grindy" and too easy to predict.
Well, I hope very much, that the devs are safe and sound - and neither pandemic-victims nor war ones! <3
Cheers and hope they're alright and their cool two projects are just on pause/halt until things get better - if they ever do in our Lifetime still (yeah, there's a chance for the pessimistic outcome - "Bad End" (of all of us) - to happen, too, so I won't just focus on the hopeful/optimistic one).
These times are full of "opportunities" for "doom and gloom" - so, any uplifting story is most welcome to all of us, I'm sure...unless the creators are struggling with a challenging "story" of how their Lives are turning out. Then their well-being is far more important than our entertainment...easy and emotionally and socially most logical, i.m.h.o.
I love this novel!! Everyone is so nice to the main character, like damn he been getting free shit left and right!! I would love to see how MC (Main Character) got into this new, but familiar, world!
Just check his page, he explains the situation quite eloquently on why the updates have slowed. (For those not in the know you can click the more information link and click on the authors name to see their public feed regarding projects or their work as a hole.)

We should be patient, my friend. Dunno if it'll really help you feel better, but I found limits spoilers leaked by Grunsteel a long while ago. Idk if it's really real limits vn given the strange interface and some changes in art style. But it's actually Drakes' art style tho!
I really love the dateable characters but Roderick is my favorite. I hope the next update is close so I can choose Roderick, continuation of the other routes and see nsfw scenes. The VN is good but the MC's tendency to get his head in the clouds is the con I see. Otherwise it's a good vn
I'm posting to say thanks for great game so far :) Music, visuals, and story fit together very well. Characters all have unique personalities. Plot not overly ridiculous. Can't wait to see where this goes, and wishing you best of luck with this project and everything!
As of now, Pierre and Roderick's routes haven't been written yet, so you're not missing anything. But, if it's and correlation, Roderick or Pierre will be the next update as we already have the start of Gran, Dave, and Norman's routes. 😊
I already caught up with Dave and Norman's routes, they're so sweet ♥
I'll just have to finish Gran's route and I'll be okay for now ! (this is the first game I've played where every character/route seems as interesting as the others (slight preference for Norman of course), generally when I play a VN, there's always a character that doesn't seem really interesting (either physically or romantically), but here the 5 characters are almost equally loveable)
I know what you mean about some characters just aren't as appealing as some of the others in some VNs. But since I'm a completionist I find I end up going back to the less appealing characters, playing their routes, and end up loving them anyway. For example, in Extracurricular Activities by Dyne Wulf, I loved Spencer and Darius at first glance (still love them), but when I went back to play Harold, Dozer, and Chester's routes, I fell in love with all of them, especially Harold. Also haven't I seen you in The Delta Academy's comment section before?
Same actually, I'm a bit of a completionist too so I always do all the routes when it's possible
(it happened to me with Morenatsu for example, Shin doesn't look really interesting when you're in the middle of someone else's route, but when you're doing Shin's route you realize he's a really sweet character, I guess it just takes time and some chat to appreciate a character !)
Thanks for reminding me to finish Extracurricular Activities btw, I still haven't done any routes besides Harold's because it would still feel like cheating on him lel, guess I grew too fond of him (still gonna do the other routes tho)
And yeah I finished the Delta Academy a few days ago and posted a comment there, so it was probably me !
Did Drakes dropped "Limits"? I just entered his patreon and saw that last post was in July. Such a wonderful novel, and I just want to see the continuation. Thank u!
It's OK Jash no Need to oplogize I understand what you mean I was just joking TBH about seeing you at the theater...anyways as I was saying it's all good :) hope you have a wonderful day oh and one more thing I how did that spider man movie go if you don't mind me asking i kinda missed the chance to go

I will wait for you forever and if you have completed your degree, congratulations.😘😁
In 82 days, it's the 1 year anniversary of the last update, right?🙂
The 2 year anniversary of the first build is also on July
Hey Drakes just want to ask if there will be an update or will the story continue in Distant travels?
Almost a year now since the last update...
I mis this VN so much i cant wait for the next update!! :D
Im excited to see how the story goes in the future, i want to see the decisions with the orbs ^-^
I love this novel!! Everyone is so nice to the main character, like damn he been getting free shit left and right!! I would love to see how MC (Main Character) got into this new, but familiar, world!
That's the question we all want an answer for
Probably on hiatus.
Hey jash sup sorry to break your bubble but i think it's another planet not another world
But yeah i miss them too
Well yeah i guess hahahaha
If you know distant travel and play john's route and you'll unlock a memory play the memory you will see something or rather someone familiar
Oh yh I think I know what your talking about
I dont know if this helps
https://gruntsteel.itch.io/distant-travels/devlog/364127/arctos-frosthearth
Great Visual Novel and also "Deep breath".... i love you Dave and miss you!!!!!
We don't know..
I just want an update is that too much to ask😭
Just check his page, he explains the situation quite eloquently on why the updates have slowed. (For those not in the know you can click the more information link and click on the authors name to see their public feed regarding projects or their work as a hole.)
Oh ok thank you so much for this info
yes
This was a pretty good VN. Enjoyed it quite a bit! It seems that Drakes has a lot of talent, and has other VNs he worked on besides Limits.
I really liked Rod, so I can't wait to play his route. Drakes should come back to this VN some time.
I think if he was busy, he'd tell us something about this, and yet there's no word about the hiatus not on Twitter, not on Patreon
There is message posted here on itch explaining that he busy
What happens with this VN? I miss Gran so much :<
What's the name of the ORTHER vns👀
Oh yh I noticed same with (APTCH)
ubdates ?
I don't think so
how
Gran, I missed you now~
The VN is prolly on hiatus- huhu
I really REALLY wanna continue using the orb and look how the story goes using the time stop orb. 😫
no updates yet. : (
Just curious if this has been updated since the last posted DevLog, and if so, does it have any nsfw scenes?
..

🤣🤣🤣 I see 2 condoms
Be careful! Mr York
😭😭😭
pffff omg isnt he prepared
What if it candy, just to lure you in?
Lol lmfaooo 🤣🤣🤣

By the way, don't forget to vote for limts vn characters, especially, Grant, Dave and Norman
I've already done that! BTW, don't forget to vote for Mike from DT vn and Steadfast
Drakes where are you 😭 the update
We should be patient, my friend. Dunno if it'll really help you feel better, but I found limits spoilers leaked by Grunsteel a long while ago. Idk if it's really real limits vn given the strange interface and some changes in art style. But it's actually Drakes' art style tho!
well it does a little but still my guts is turning like a shit when i think about limits hahaha don't know why
I found this on the discord sever. Heard that it was cursed limits vn :)
What the hell that hot!
Hey,some update this year?
doese this take place similaly to a place called home because in one scence there is a sign that is the title image for this VN
I was just playing that...
Yes there friends I think...
I really love the dateable characters but Roderick is my favorite. I hope the next update is close so I can choose Roderick, continuation of the other routes and see nsfw scenes. The VN is good but the MC's tendency to get his head in the clouds is the con I see. Otherwise it's a good vn
???
I'm posting to say thanks for great game so far :) Music, visuals, and story fit together very well. Characters all have unique personalities. Plot not overly ridiculous. Can't wait to see where this goes, and wishing you best of luck with this project and everything!
Oh!! Wow, look at that!! Is this game abandoned???
No it is not abandoned. Scroll down and you see posts where author explains. He does it when he can, but he's busy and this isn't an obligation.
I guess he's too busy then
What do you think about this VN is it good?? Should I start??
It is good! But as you can see, it's been long since the update. However, you should give it a try!
Important to be patient, they have life outside this too. Be kind and respectful. If you really want content, go through the story again.
he works on other VNS rn there is one called distant travels i believe that he is currently working on that one more.
Hmmm i think this VN just shut down just look at the last update 😔
Don't say that Harvey...
I don't like too but i think that's what it looks like
No no no no no
but i hope i'm wrong
Please be wrong, we fell in love with this VN. I didn't mean to sound rude and mean but WEH?
I'm sure he's still working on it, if he decides to abandon it, it's his decision working on a game of any kind can be hard work for a person.
but it's too good to let go☹️
so are 90% of abandoned projects, but ya gotta let go sometimes
😢
i'm sure the game has still been in progress
It's still in the works, don't panic!
oohh shit! Yey omg atleast there's a sign 😅
No they are just busy with life. Scroll down and you'll see message from creator. Don't worry, he keeps working on it when he can. 😉
that's good
I. Love. This. I've played nearly all that's available (I think) and I can't wait for updates!! Impatient mode activated
Hey, I'm currently playing the VN rn and I arrived to the point where I have to choose whose route I'm gonna take
However it seems I can't pick Pierre or Roderick's routes
Is it because I missed some interactions with them and don't have enough affinity, or just because their routes aren't written yet ?
As of now, Pierre and Roderick's routes haven't been written yet, so you're not missing anything. But, if it's and correlation, Roderick or Pierre will be the next update as we already have the start of Gran, Dave, and Norman's routes. 😊
I see, thanks !
I already caught up with Dave and Norman's routes, they're so sweet ♥

Nope he hasn't, you can scroll down to see his reply in one of these comments for a bit of clarification
I saw someone typing on the phone could it be you 🤔
..........ok.....you....sound mad.....
It's OK Jash no Need to oplogize I understand what you mean I was just joking TBH about seeing you at the theater...anyways as I was saying it's all good :) hope you have a wonderful day oh and one more thing I how did that spider man movie go if you don't mind me asking i kinda missed the chance to go
