this game still alive ? it'll get abandoned soon if not updated :(
On hold for now, dev got some issues with divorce and new work, doesn't have time to work on game:

Don't think we can expect much for half a year or so, if he ever gets back to working on it.

Edit: That's according to last Patreon update, people saying he's been posting Discord about resuming work, no idea about that.

I don't think you've been reading all the way through this post. t4bbo said he'd continue his work on the game, starting in June. That was 6 weeks ago, and so far there hasn't been any life sign from what I understand.

Here's the important part of his post:

"I will finish project until end of May use the money to pay out most of debts I had to take on due to real property sale/acquisition. I recently refused the employment contract for now (luckily for me it obviously didnt close the door) and from June I will continue with game development.
Only thing I am doing on the game in the meantime is that I am making my own library of default animations I can reuse in the future, therefore if you have any ideas of your favorite porn action... drop below the link. I plan to make polls in future for you to vote what kind of default animation I will prepare."


He's apparently took an offer to work in a company owned by Jeff Bezos as a VAT manager for a 6 month project, but declined a full-time employment for the time being. Now, one thing that confuses me here is that, if you take an offer in January for 6 months, you'd have to be working the entire month of June aswell, otherwise the math doesn't really add up. t4bbo said he'd finish up with this project in May, though. That doesn't make much sense to me, but it is what it is I guess. Anyway, the point is that he's being radio silent again, and the game might actually get the abandoned tag soon according to forum rules if I'm not mistaken. Would be a shame, but at this point I don't really know what to think of it anymore.

I said it before, but a developer like t4bbo with a fairly large following and fanbase should be able to make a short statement on what's going on. It's literally a minute of his time, and it's kind of disappointing that he apparently doesn't feel the need to let the people who supported him for months or even years know what's going on, at all.

He isn't charging his patrons, which is a good thing, and something many developers wouldn't even consider doing, but the lack of communication is still a bit...meh.

Anyway, I wish him all the best.

:cry: :cry:
It's sad to know what the developer is going through right now at this moment... I hope he solves everything and is good with himself and comes back when he can for the continuation of Babysitters development This is one of my favorite games

So where's the [ON HOLD] tag if that's really the case?
You can't possibly be this naïve.
heh...Naive? The "On Hold" tag is assigned by this site's moderators in accordance to their (F95) rules and standards. Unless a game developer specifically asks for it, the developer has nothing to do with the decision. This site is just one place games such as this can be followed, tracked, etc. Except for very rare circumstances, game developers do not create games for this site. Some interact here, some don't.

Does that answer your question? (You're correct, BTW, I am not.)

Yes, my bad. I do apologize for my harsh tone. I guess I was just disappointed about the state of this project when I posted my earlier remark.
Sometimes I keep forgetting that F95 is nothing more than one of the many pirate sites that give away the hard work of game developers for free.
They're not supporting game developers at all, but rather screwing them out of their well deserved revenue that otherwise would have kept them going, instead of giving up on their projects for a lack of rewards.
While I still think this game, which I liked btw, is dead, it really is not the dev's fault that this thread is still active for some reason, suggesting that "Babysitters" is still a viable project.
Where do you think do these games get their free PR from? It's sites like F95 providing a platform for adult VN developers to build a community. And if their work is good, increasing revenue from their Patreon pages as many users are willing to support their projects. So no, you are dead wrong. F95 and other sites are the single biggest reason some of these creators make as much money as they do.

That being said, the reason why people say that t4bbo aint milking nobody is because several patrons came here saying that he's stopped charging money over on Patreon for the time being. I might be wrong, but I think t4bbo himself had mentioned this in one of his Patreon posts a while ago aswell.

Pretty much.
Trying to find any adult games directly through Patreon is an utter nightmare.
If not for this site I would not have found even a fraction of games I am interested in.
And while I download many games here for free I also am supporting multiple projects on Patreon and SubscribeStar, projects I downloaded here first for free, played and which impressed me enough.

Here is a reply to a Patron asking T4bbo for a progress report. (approx 2 weeks ago). Hopefully this schedule will hold true. Billing is still on hold through the month of august though.
I've finished VAT automatisation tool for Amazon only recently (1month behind planned schedule, but everything's fine so far), now I go visit wife for a week and once I get back, I continue with development full time. I think in the middle august will come that bigger version I ve been working for quite some time. After that I am on regular 1-2 months update.

Looking forward to it. I like this one more than the first one.
