Why spend the money? He's got censored and updated art at the bottom that isn't blurred to go by. The real question should be who would waste five bucks to see it, the blurring doesn't do shit to figure out its updated character models for Maddie and Jazz, Maddie cranking Danny's handle, and Jazz riding a dildo in the shower.
You made a great game, it's a shame you had to leave and start from scratch. GZone did not offer you to continue for a monetary reward?
We left before he ever came back, and when he did, we already had full intention to keep moving in *our* direction as a team. No offer was ever made to bring us back into the fold in a full time capacity to take a lot of time from our project though. And honestly, I've never *seen* King Mitus' gold, but I don't think even if that was offered we'd have abandoned what we started. Too much good momentum already going for us.
Along with the one you linked already in this thread, the other two are the attached pictures, not blurry but still censored which were previously posted in his discord.
I’m certainly not. I haven’t looked over any of the scripts in an official capacity in a long time. And any of the work he did on his hiatus, I didn’t touch or ever see before it was published. He came back to life and he brought that update with him.
GZone himself at this point, as far as I know. With the occasional ask from me for a background.
While I'd like to say a redesign is due to some extremely complicated reason; I'm aware that gzone set the 1 year mark some time ago (which was to be mid June of 2024) and had a team of very good people ready to do whatever needed to complete the update to AP before his "hiatus", my money is on that he wants his cashcow to keep going. What's the best way to do that? Release uncensored versions of pictures already posted in his discord and promise new things!
Yep. Keep the whales hooked. "New art is why the game is delayed until 2030. But make sure you keep sending your money! Otherwise I can't get it done!" - Gzone
Probably the same reason many devs keep "remaking/reworking" their game endlessly instead of real updates. Easy cash, low effort, long term proofed.
This has never made sense to me, because I feel like at the very least, expanding your creative endeavors to focus on content OUTSIDE of existing IP’s, can only do you good and show your creative service in action.
While i don't have experience myself in creating games, i do know that writers often might get stuck in constantly trying to refine what they've already written. In order for it to better fit the ideas they have for future, and once you get into that mindset, it's hard to break out of it. I would think the same thing can happen with game devs.
While I of course can't speak for yourself, if you have only minimum experience on this site you'll 100% understand what I meant. There are TONS of games stuck on "rework/remake" hell. And its probably a safe guess most are due to the reasons I stated and not some kind of artist block or something.
