Personally, I don't like the idea of some rando "picking up" a project. If someone lacking skill takes on the project, they're going to struggle even more than the dev did and are more likely to give up. If someone with completely different visions for the game shows up, the game is going to feel disjointed and may be retconed to the point of being unrecognizable. In either case, they'd be better off making their own game. And if they can't do that, what makes you think they can carry the development of someone else's game?
Exactly. If when I use to be on this dev's Discord channel and he was readily interacting with all of us like he was back then, if I had known he would ultimately abandon the game like what occurred here, I would have loved to pick his brain to see if he would have expounded on what he had planned for the future of the game, to see if he had planned it out that far into the future back then in other words or if he was making it up as he went along?

Going back to our earlier discussion, I think those creators who haven't gotten the story fully fleshed out ahead of time face an even more daunting task when trying to implement and code their games while they try and make it up on the run as they go along as well. Obviously there will always be some modifications to the story as it comes along but if it hasn't been penned out ahead of time, often times writer's block can settle in or they run into a point where they may become unhappy with the direction it has turned and get turned off as a result of this.

I'd rather they take a break and step away from the project and collect their thoughts than a new writer take over seeing as how it wasn't their material all along but I still get why some would rather just see the project completed, them having enjoyed it as much as they have up to that point.

I think it's hard to avoid writing related issues when it's tied to active game development.
You get feedback and by trying to meet that feedback, everything changes. Tonal shifts in the story, for example, will drastically alter the end product. You might encounter a spark of inspiration that's going in a different direction than planned. You might realize that something you're adding is going to create a plot hole later. Having branching dialogue trees with consequences, while highly desirable, adds another layer of challenge. You have to considerably write and plan for more the more dynamic the story is. In this regard, it might be more efficient to have an general outline than a detailed map prepared.

Personally, I've found detailed maps, more often than not, get in my way. Earlier ideas usually get replaced by more coherent and engaging ideas as I actually start writing.

7/10 without Alice 4/10 With Alice cuz legit the other problems were okay before i had to deal with her, then i just had the constant reminder i had another Annoying Scene with her coming up. 2/10 for the grind and misleading info since the game got dropped neways, so any stats shown or not shown is pointless when they go no where. so 5/10 overall xD

I downloaded and played, all of them were thrown out in the middle, your buttocks obeyed this, every 5 to 10 blessings were thrown out, I suspect that the game is faulty

finding their way back home.
Normally I could agree with this, but have a feeling this one is done unless someone else takes it over which is unlikely even members of his development team can't get a hold of him. He's been dark for over a year . Just sad I really liked this one

Yeah, I'm feeling that same way honestly but deep down I hope he is alright and getting the time away from this game and ultimately comes back to it with a renewed sense of vigor and starts working on it again. Hopefully they want to see their labor of love to completion.

Was really one of the more unique projects out there and I appreciated it for all it was even if most porn game players were turned off by the card battle system as Victorius brought up way back when.

I to hope he is alright, If he is I just wish he would come out and say something even if it's that he can't continue just so everyone knows he's doing okay. It was unique I played this as a game with porn elements to it not a porn game and really enjoyed it and am missing it

Updated for v0.2.4-Public
Updated "Unlock Gallery" to use fix_gallery(force = True)
Updated "Unlock Collectibles" to use the new coding system.
"Replay Menu" changed "replay_gallery" to "replaysMenu".

Thanks to justonetime for figuring out what was blocking the Ren'Py Console

Please try the mod on future versions as 9 time out of 10 it will work as intended. This game's code is very well written so the Unlock things should work just fine. The only thing that might need updated is the Makeshift Cheat Menu.

Has some nice things like Restore Health, Raise Stats, Obtain Items, Unlock Collectibles, Unlock Wallpapers, Unlock Gallery, along with a Makeshift Cheat Menu.

These tend to be self explanatory but the Unlock Gallery flags things as seen so while most of this would likely be future ready it can't add what it don't know how to add. The Makeshift Cheat Menu is a collection of cheats I found in the code so just organized them.

If the console was accessible then I probably wouldn't have bothered jimmy-rigging this. Before the question comes up no this doesn't make your dreams come true.

On a lighter note the girls are cute! There were a few times the guide was telling me to do something but the game just wasn't in the mood yet clicking around aimlessly eventually lead to profit.
