VN Ren'Py Aihvala [v0.4] [MaterTuaGames]

[DaFinker]

There is a group on here who seems absolutely obsessed with getting games tagged as abandoned, and I just don't understand it.

Those folks have small and uneventful lives. If they can get a VN tagged, they feel big and like they've accomplished something. Pathetic, really.

Friend (over the Phone): So, what all did you get up to this morning?

Poster: Oh, it was pretty busy. I started the day by whacking off to a porn VN. Then I ate my DoorDashed order from IHOP while watching a manga on HiDive. After that, I posted on at least 20 different adult game threads that they should actually be abandoned. (I even said "aboned" a couple of times! Hahahahaha.) Anyway, after that I wallowed in self-pity for another hour or so. How 'bout you?

Friend (over the Phone): . . . .

I use my time travel machine that I bought last month on eBay for 40 bucks, and yup, found a tragedy in the future :/

So you didn't learn the lesson from Napoleon Dynamite, it seems.

I'm not one of those that wants this game to be abandoned! I promise I love this game, and I'm just scare it will get abandoned

Very scared actually. This game feels so different, in a very, very good way. It's so fresh, and hit's just the right spot. Also, for me, who honestly have a quite busy life - it is _very_ nice that there is not an unholy amount of buildup, grinding and that sort. It's just the perfect amount, not too fast, not to slow - which is very important, and a hard spot to hit. The developer really did a phenomenal job with that. To my taste - it can be a _tiny_ bit more story, but just a _very_ tiny amount. Love the story and everything, so special and unique. This game can go far, very far - I think.

What is the difference between the 2 patches?

Searching this thread will tell you the answer.

 

[Kurblabla]

Seems fine!

I hope he gets his SS page approved soon. It should have been approved already.

This game has potential. Next update we should hire Liza the gold-digger mayor's daughter
as a castle servant so she can wash MC's balls every morning.

"What's that you say, you always loved me? Well too bad you were too busy gold digging on my brother and didn't marry me before we found I out I had royal blood. Oh well, water under the bridge now I guess! Scrub my taint harder while you're down there it feels nice."

You guys keep waiting. I'm afraid there won't be a sequel.

ITS BEEN DECADES

What a ridiculous exaggeration. It hasn't even been 6 months since the last update.

Dude is only making $200 per month on patreon but for some weird reason people expect small devs to release updates at the same pace of devs that are working on their games full-time.

Yep, exactly. Ofc, 2½ months since the last post on Patreon isn't great, but I've seen way worse communication than that from devs who still continue to update, whether making the same as MaterTua or making bank. It's nothing to freak out about.

Wait for an update

Dev hasn't been active on here or on patron since the 2nd of January. I wouldn't hold my breath for an update...

Here's hoping the writer helping doesn't end up hijacking MaterTua's vision of things. I've seen that happen on some other games, and it ended in disaster each time. But if the writer actually has integrity, it should only help the dev continuing forward with the project.
