I have a monthly subscription to Mega as I support many creators and download so many awesome VN's and games that it only seems right for me and at $11.00 a month it is worth it for me.

you know there are also other options for downloading? did you ever tryed google drive (drive.google.com)? its also free and i downloaded there 6gb files without problem

This is actually a good idea as well... stay with one build until it gets close to 5gb. Also, I do need to consider using another mirror as well.

I play Maou-Sama, and it does that kind of build, with a carry-over for the save from week 1 to 2. Different game, but also with a 4-week plan, though in Daz instead of AI. What ever you go with after the final tally, I'm good with.

There are a couple of things you could think about. First, you could do as Killer did and only split it off when the file size got close to 5 gigs, which is the daily limit for NEGA. You could also use an additional mirror, such as Mediafire, Workupload, etc. like Runey did with Harem Hotel.

By the way, I think the girls are perfect for their level of Patreon Support. Samantha as the visitor, Alena for the Angel and so forth. I think that is great.

For me, it could go either way. I have played games with 'Chapters', and each chapter is a new download dependent upon the one before for the ability to continue the game. As your game does not have the same scatter of playable options, separating the weeks would allow the previous ones to be deleted if the player had a limited amount of memory in their device. Thus, that is the only reason I voted for the weekly separation.

Well you can do what NLT Media, who is the maker of Treasure of Nadia and the last game that is now completed Lust Epidemic. They do add on to the game but the person who wants to play the game, has to have the base core of the game, so the add, are smaller but will just be add on to the game story that is already downloaded.

I know my story backwards and forwards, so no worries about forgetting anything. And I have no dog in this fight really... I don't care either way. it is just as easy for me to create new builds as it would be to just keep updating one build. That is why I asked for folks to vote. :)

the thing is, as I have seen before, yes, you could split it into other pieces to make it easy for you to make the game, but at times, as the game grows, you might forget that in some area, you have this person doing this or that, and when you do a game update, you have added something that out of sync for what that person was doing in the first place in the game. SO plan ahead and try your best to remember what everyone is doing in the game story.

Honestly, I've never done that (but sure I could consider that an option). The thing is, for many, it is their first time ever downloading it so either way, I would still have to submit the full version for download.
