A fanfic is the word you're looking for.
Well, we live in a world where fanfiction can turn into $58mil for the creator and be preferred by many over the original.

This is a game that has some good characterization, but generally bad writing overall. It certainly needed another draft or two to smooth things out. Is that person Eugene? I'm going with no.

I'd also say that since no one has started a successor to this game by now, it's likely no one will.

A lot of love for Jenny recently, so... Her with different hair and make-up from a Patreon preview of Ep.6

How she would have looked with a makeover for the big party the team were supposed to be going to. (Memory is fuzzy as it was so long ago but weren't we asked by the local mob to consider actually murdering her brother at this party or some such? :p ) Anyways...also from an Ep6. preview set.

Memory lane, eh...or since this was from the chapter never released more like alternate reality?

Still doesn't make any sense why we lost this game. :-(
Sometimes I get the impression that the Dev was seeing what the game's story was becoming and said to himself: "Yeah, I don't know what I'm doing anymore"

But then I remember that the game had been canceled the same week the update was going to come out, so the mystery behind it could be an even bigger problem.

I've said it here before, but he painted himself into a corner with the writing. Does anyone have any idea of how things could have ended even somewhat well, while still realistic? I sure don't. Maybe that's not why it was stopped, but I was astounded by the direction the plot was taking and not in a good way.

Well, although the game starts off a bit heavy due to the protagonist's development (with his father's death, etc.), on his first day at school he finds the villain giving him a hard time, but I never imagined that later on, the MC, in addition to getting involved in problems with the mafia, would end up deciding to end the villain's life...

Somehow I was hoping that it would be possible to continue the story without Adam bothering the MC, but that there would also be no need to get the MC's hands dirty.

Plot-wise the game probably jumped the shark when the MC was kidnapped and then was compounded when the dev panicked and had him released on "a promise" because he couldn't advance the story with the MC locked in a room. Nobody releases a kidnapped person on a verbal promise to pay in the future, only on cash received (or in this case documents signed and shares handed over).

If one looks at that other "famous University game," the Vinny-Buddy arc is only coming to a head for the end with the MC already 2 semesters in. Here, the MC hasn't even completed the remedial class let alone experience uni life yet and it's totally sidelined by the mafia angle.

It's been speculated, based on the fact that the Steam copy is still up, but the F95 member says it's not him that put it there, that the developer was a team of at least two people, who broke up, with one faction shutting down the Patreon, and another putting the game up on Steam, but neither able to continue working on it (or maybe the faction able to work on it being unwilling to do so when the other faction would get all the money).
