Ren'Py Apocalust [psychodelusional] Discussion Thread

[Aristos]

Hard to say, but based on what we have witnessed so far my money's on the next release will exceed the worst predictions. Dev hasn't given us any signs to hope for the better. Dev really really sucks at estimations. Always thought the more you work the faster and more experienced you get, at least it was like that in the fields i've worked at. Like, you know what your output is as of that moment. But, what mostly makes to be such a pessimist is he is doing everything alone. Rendering, scripting(not an easy task, considering he is a newbie and planning on implementing some rewards system, based on my experience), writing.
I know of another dev similar to Psycho, also slow as hell, but has good graphics. Guess, you already know who im talking about.

There are so many candidates!
If you're talking about slow devs actually putting some work on their games, you might refer to ttll's Come Inside or the devs of Radiant for example.
On the other hand, if you were thinking of conmen who consistently milk their patrons for nothing, there's an unparalleled trio of candidates: Icstor, Gumdrop and Aorrta.

the fact that it did not come out in November has already been known for 2 weeks, the new date was the first of December, what I did not understand is if it was postponed too? and in case what is the new date?

(sorry for my bad english)

The dev just said later in December, but he didn't say exactly when.
My prediction is it will come out after Christmas.

Ive supported this development (219$), will wait one more month then i'm going to pull the plug. Delay after Delay

He always delivered with Dark Neighborhood, yet as excited as I was about his new project when this thread started, I've always been of the opinion that people should wait for results before massively supporting any dev.
Recently I commented on this issue in connection with the game Radiant. That game showed promise form the beginning, which alongside the incest theme attracted a myriad supporters right off the bat. Too much support without palpable results leads to the devs resting on their laurels.

do you have the ava renders?

Well it is not easy to release the first version of the game. I completely understand it and just hope that he gets it in the form he is happy with it. Once the first step is done then its easier to do further updates.

It's a question of integrity, not the difficulty of making the game, and he has lied to us three times.

ffs, really? oh, come on. next date when? early January? next one - second half of February?
this game is like Cyberpunk2077 of porn games, but cbp2077 released in 10 days (ba-dum-tsss!)

sadly, but this possible gem is never going to be released. or will become huge disappointment like Afterglow

 

[Pogo123]

Yes

pls let me play different types on incest since it takes so long like not only boy/mum/sister, but also dad/daughter and grandpa/daughter/grand-daughter PLEASE :3 you could implement this via NTR/voyeur stuff for example or just different paths

 

[Tribal155]

If or when this game comes out, I’ll play it. Am I expecting anything great or substantial from it at this point though? No. I guess at this point we can only wait and see what we get.

Hello Patrons!
Here to give a quick update since I am taking forever.
The game is taking a bit longer than I thought, so I am going to put the main story/game trailer up in a bit over a week and the 0.1 release will be after that later in the month.
I am not even going to try to give a direct date for it because I already borked 3 now so. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Just wanted to give a quick update so I'm not silent for ages on end again.
Anyhow, game is coming soon and my next post will be with the Apocalust main game trailer.
Thanks a million for the support and I will talk to you again soon.

Aite if I remember correctly it has been like a year since the previous "Main game trailer" so I guess we might get it October-November 2021?

 

[LadyBee]

but did he at least give a new date?

however he is turning out to be a real disappointment, he's getting worse than Gumdrop (that's the worst insult you can give to a developer)


(Sorry for my bad english)

What's the point in giving us a new date if he's just gonna break his promise again. He continuously postpones it. At this point, he's just milking his patreon.

 

[KR.Lee]

Our stance waiting for this game.

at this point I think so too, if before we had doubts now we have the certainty

his post on Patreon doesn't make sense, what's the point of wasting time making another trailer when one already exists since last June? (among other things at that time he said that the game was 90% done, since then 5 months have passed)

how did it go from the November release to the end of December if some were already testing the game two weeks ago?


there are clearly some things that don't add up , Gumdrop did school


I'm disappointed because the game really seemed like an ambitious project, games of this caliber are increasingly a rarity

People should try to find those testers then. In that way,we can get to know how much is the project still incomplete.

 

[BatmanNinja]

Berlin airport is ready, a vaccination against Corona is ready, Brexit is almost ready, but this game is still not there.
Great achievement.

You should have finished it off with "but this game is still not ready." as it would have rhymed with the whole thing.

 

[Pogo123]

well thats totally true. But he could at least pause the payments at a certain point. I know some devs who does this so it’s possible (and fair)

[*whispering* I still hope he adds NTR or different incest paths]

yeah i just read this that why im reply you. You shouldn't say something like that in future because you are trustworthy user, each word you said make ppl believed.

i posted this a few days ago as well

 

[Queen of Hearts]

So this guy hasnt put out a single release for this game (at all, like as in the game does not exist), in over a year and a half and they have been taking patreon money ever since?? or is it closed until a release is put out?

 

[Tribal155]

Damn
