The last update was on 30 march 2023 - almost full year without any patch. And people are still paying them 1500$ each month for some reason.

At this point we should just go on patreon and start telling them to post the update, as they respond quite quickly from what I've seen. Never before have I witnessed such an arrogant approach from a creator.

  1. XalLat TV: For the first time on the air of the Talk Show "WTF?!" featuring 'The Library Story' developers Xaljio and Latissa!
  2. After the splash screen, the 'XalLat TV' studio is shown with a interviewer and, for now, two empty armchairs. There are spectators around, the studio is packed to capacity. The distinct smell of ripe (or even overripe) tomatoes wafts through the air. Dissatisfied buzzing may be heard from the audience.
  3. The interviewer: Friends! Today, for the first time, 'The Library Story' developers Latissa and Xaljio are visiting our studio! The same ones who once again missed the release date! And we begin our uncompromising Talk show “WTF?!”
  4. Energetic music plays, Xaljio and Latissa come out from behind the scenes and sit down in armchairs. They look quite cheerful, although a bit embarrassed. There is excitement among the spectators, and the tomato smell intensifies.
  5. The interviewer: Welcome to the 'XalLat TV studio'! And... it's already February!
  6. Latissa: Yes, great month!
  7. Xaljio: Imagine, we met last February under the palm trees, but this year we have snow outside the window again and... The interviewer: No, no! You did not understand. It's already February… Where is the RELEASE?! We want to ask you only one thing: how long and WTF?! By the way, WTF is the name of our Talk show. The studio guests are clearly confused by the interviewer's pressure. Energetic music plays again, promises of release on December 26 and January 12 are shown on the screen. The audience is outraged.
  8. Xaljio: Hmm. Excuse me, but weren't we supposed to discuss travel and our impressions of different countries?
  9. Latissa: Yes, we brought slides and photos of sights with us.
  10. The interviewer: We had to resort to a little deception, because otherwise you wouldn’t agree to come to our studio! So, I repeat the question that concerns us all: WHERE IS THE RELEASE?!
  11. Xaljio: We didn’t agree like that! It's better we leave now, and then… (已编辑)


  12. The hall is buzzing with displeasure, obscene shouts are heard, the smell of tomatoes is so strong that it seems that a whole ton of tomatoes is about to fall on the stage.
  13. Xaljio: Okay, okay! The release is almost ready, and we will write the details…
  14. The interviewer: No way! How many times have you already written this? Here, look! Screenshots of every “Almost ready...” flash on the screen. The hall is buzzing with displeasure.
  15. Latissa: But it's really almost ready! Honestly! We've almost finished adding the English language to the game (we just received the proofread text of the remained excerpt), besides, we continue testing in full swing and…
  16. The interviewer: February! It's already February! You promised a release in December! Twenty-sixth! Then the twelfth of January! And today is already the first of February!
  17. Xaljio: Well, this, of course, is not very good on our part, we admit… But if you look at the dates, overdue is just over a month! Latissa: For a two-person indie company…
  18. The interviewer: Yes, yes, we have already heard that. But what now? When is the release? How can we measure the time before it? It was already measured in days, now in hours, right?
  19. Latissa: Now there are really only a few days left!
  20. The interviewer: Yeah! So you will gain time until the end of February, and then... Will the release be postponed to March?
  21. Xaljio and Latissa, in unison: No postponements! The release in February!
  22. The interviewer: And why should we believe you this time? Shouts of agreement are heard from the hall. Some are so obscene that they are bleeped.
  23. Latissa: Guys, we have been working as hard as we can all this time! So now we have our hands full of finished stuff!
  24. Xaljio: Yes, furthermore, we plan to do the whole series of releases in the near future, no long breaks between parts of this version and…
  25. The interviewer: At least make this promised release, and then we’ll talk about the series! (已编辑)


  26. The hall hums approvingly. The guests of the stidio look ashamed.
  27. The interviewer: Well? When exactly will the release be? Answer the main question of our Talk show: how long and WTF?!
  28. Xaljio, gloomily: No exact dates this time. We shouldn’t have even talked about January 12, since we didn’t meet the deadline by December 26.
  29. Latissa: But it definitely won’t be in March. And not at the end of February!
  30. Xaljio: Of course, becase it will be even before mid-February!
  31. The interviewer: But according to “Honolulu time”, mid-February this time will not fall in July, by any chance?
  32. Latissa and Xaljio, in unison: NO!
  33. The interviewer: Oh... Okay. Let's assume that there really isn't much left until the release this time… But we're not putting off the tomatoes too far just yet. The audience hums in agreement, but the smell of tomatoes becomes a little less noticeable. The "WTF?!" outro is shown on the screen.
  34. The interviewer: You have just watched uncompromising 'XalLat TV' show “WTF?!” Let's not disperse, friends, right now we have a weather forecast combined with a striptease!
  35. The audience applauds contentedly, seeming to have already forgotten about the studio guests.
  36. Xaljio, in a whisper: What was the sense to open this TV studio?!
  37. Latissa, in a whisper: Let's get out of here quickly… and continue working! It's time to release this version, otherwise on the next Talk show I'm afraid that… Xaljio and Latissa, anxiously sniffing the smell of tomatoes, hastily leave the studio. It seems they are determined to release 'The Library Story' 0.97.5.7 in the nearest future

To post the update they must do the update :( The more they do in the game the harder is to do a new things. IMHO for now there are only two main things they didn`t do in the game: Tongas fucks the Belle and someone fucks Betsy. For me, it doesn`t matter fucks or not Gaston the Belle on the beach, do or not Belle oral sex to Gaston, and naked or not Belle do the cleaning in the shop.

Any save before belle is "raped" by the beast for the first time?

All saves I've found on this thread she's already lost her virginity to him.

They are notoriously slow with updates and terrible at deadlines and promised dates. It may not be abandoned, but you probably shouldn't support their idea of work ethic, or development cycle. Play an update if and when they release one.

Finally something from the devs:

Hello friends!


We are VERY sorry for such a long silence. We by no means closed the project and did not escaped anywhere. We'll tell you what it was all about later, after the release. Yes, there will be the release. And soon, yes. We understand that we now have enough tomatoes for quite a long time, but what could we do? Unfortunately, things happen in life. Thanks for your understanding, and we, in turn, perfectly understand all those who are indignant. Of course, you have every right to do this.


P.S. I'll answer in the PM, comments and Discord later, also after the release. Now the main goal is to do the release ASAP, so being distracted by catching tomatoes is not the best idea for now.

Is it the third of the fourth time they delayed it for this specific update?

Monday marks one year since the last update. And who the f$%& knows if there will ever be another one before the apocalypse.
Why is there no "Abandoned" tag?
