Development Hell, Vaporware: Rosenkreuzstilette Freudenstachel had been delayed several times ever since its inception (whether for personal or technical reasons), a fact made worse since [erka:es] would only release it at Comiket.
Saved from Development Hell: Despite Isemiya, the circle's main programmer and half of the duo that makes up [erka:es] going AWOL for reasons unknown at one point of the game's development, WOMI, the H-Game artist of the duo, was able to continue working on the game alone all the way through, eventually being able to get the game released in Fall of 2012 outside of Comiket.
