It doesn't matter what happens in your life you owe it to the fans to fuckin finish it! Do directors of movies or authors finish half a project and put only half out for the fans and then say this is all you get. Finish the fucking thing!
Dude, no one owes you shit.It doesn't matter what happens in your life you owe it to the fans to fuckin finish it! Do directors of movies or authors finish half a project and put only half out for the fans and then say this is all you get. Finish the fucking thing!
abandoned doesn't mean dead, it just means theres been 6 months since an updateIt was a great game at first But its level has decreased And now she is abandoned
It's abandoned because the dev ghosted on all his platforms, shut his patreon down and vanished ... in less than 24 hours I think.abandoned doesn't mean dead, it just means theres been 6 months since an update
Well let's see what I can do....if I get the Rebecca model correct i will steal her for my vn...You could try here:

I don't think they've 100% figured them all out, but they've got a good start on most of them.
No one owes anyone anything, quit acting so entitled and spoiled. Learn Python, Renpy, Daz, try to figure out which assets were used for that (and buy them, probably for a few thousand $) and cook up a story and finish it yourself if you want to see it finished that bad. It's easier to just make your own AVN from scratch most likely. I'm guessing the OG dev either died, got burned out, or had more productive things to do with his time (thousands of hours) after subs dropped (not hard, this is yet another vanilla college AVN that doesn't stand out much from 1,000 others, and I quit Patreon altogether 5 months ago myself). Be glad that he actually closed his Patreon account. Most shadier dev's simply ghost everyone and keep collecting free money until everyone cancels on their own or their credit cards expire in a few years (for those that forgot about a recurring $5 sub they had).It doesn't matter what happens in your life you owe it to the fans to fuckin finish it!

Shit like this actually make me miss the good ol' days, when there was no such thing as early access/half finished games sold and released and the only way to see a game before it was finished was to work for the game company or maybe as a beta tester when it was mostly already finshed and just going through debugging. No one should get too attached to a game or AVN still in development or be surprised when it's not completed. Even game studios worth millions of dollars sometimes go under or get bought by bigger game studios or publishers (looking at you canceled EverQuest 3, Asheron's Call 2, and a long list of others), never mind Average Joe that just happens to have a decent video card and some Python and Daz skills.Surprised this got abandoned. The way it got abandoned via random deleting of their patreon account makes me think someone either found out about it and made him delete it (which has happened before) or he had a mental breakdown and deleted it himself (which has also happened before). It reminds me of Connected and another game, which I can't remember the name of, but some sort of submission/corruption based game that got randomly abandoned because the developers account was deleted.
For fans of these games, having low expectations is key. Don't forget that pretty much all these developers are amateurs. I am playing several games that I know will never be completed. In my time here on f95, only a small handful of games I play have been completed. Maybe a dozen in total, if not fewer.
For developers of these games. People need to learn from their predecessors mistakes. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Keep things simple as you can. The longer it takes to complete your project, the less likely it will be completed. Even if you make great art or a great story, you're still likely an amateur who does this as a side-job/hobby. Doing too much will lead to burnout pretty quickly, creative work is hard enough as is. Don't make it more difficult for yourself by failing at project management.
This also hurts the "industry" because people are afraid of games being abandoned and some end up thinking all developers are nefarious milkers in waiting or whatever else. Which causes them to both not support developers, and for developers to get damaged by unreasonably toxic environments. Both of which make it more likely for games to get abandoned.
Now that's something worth the wait. Good luck on in mateWell let's see what I can do....if I get the Rebecca model correct i will steal her for my vn...
If you manage that you've already got 3/4 of the game's entire female cast.Well let's see what I can do....if I get the Rebecca model correct i will steal her for my vn...
On the other hand, there's like 1% chance for an amateur to slog over a game for literal years until they complete it. So we'd see maybe a handful of this kind of games at best. Given such choice, i think getting to experience shorter story, even if it ends at a cliffhanger, is better than nothing at all.Shit like this actually make me miss the good ol' days, when there was no such thing as early access/half finished games sold and released and the only way to see a game before it was finished was to work for the game company or maybe as a beta tester when it was mostly already finshed and just going through debugging.

That is the question. One day: POOF. They disappeared.wtf happened
Just imagine if he retorted:Dude, no one owes you shit.
Like going to fuck cactus.Just imagine if he retorted:
"Joke's on you! I'm a farmer and I'm just waiting for a huge shipment of horse manure for my cabbage fields!"
Young people don't know how to quip any more
Alan could go fuck a cactus. That's an amazing idea!Like going to fuck cactus.
Or wanting to knock sweet Jade. It hurts so good.
project died and dev took the money and ran.wtf happened
From what it showed on patreon he had the next chapter done and was shooting for an end of November release. Had a shit ton of previews up and everything and consistently uploaded patreon renders with zero indication dude didn't like what they were working on. In fact they seemed excited to get the next chapter out. If they were gonna take the money and run it makes no sense to not release the latest chapter and milk it more or just leave their patreon up and not release anything ever.project died and dev took the money and ran.
this is why you should never trust subscription based crowdfunding.
Nah, I doubt it was that extreme. If I was a betting man I'd go with the rumor that he was based in Singapore and got busted (porn is illegal there, and producing it will get you 5-10 lashes with a rattan cane + prison time). Or died in some freak accident (with friends or family deleting shit after, less likely). All clues point to one of those 2, given how fast shit disappeared.I bet the Dev's wife/gf/bf/whatever found out and had him offed
