Unreal Engine Beasts in the Sun [Mines&Tentacles Test] [Animo Pron]

[Kintaroe]

Why would he care about the impression he gives to people who pirate his stuff? What are you going to do if gives a bad impression to you, not pirate his stuff?

exactly, also places like this only advertise the game and him as an artist more than dmg his income lol

 

[TrickyBiscuit]

I think this game is gone Fade away in the background
a few post back in the pic you can see him the current version has only 2 animations for sex
the trailer and his previews showed clearly something els

next to that he had a shit ton of cut scenes but no more sex
pretty sure its gone be the raptor that he showed us and the mummy WICH he ruined because he showed it to us like 10 times or so, so that also nothing new

uhhm sorry but 3year in the make and 2 scenes.....???????
so its it now gone be 1 sex scene per 6 months?

View attachment 2848076

Remember when everyone thought we were getting BTQ/Lara style scences in this game? You'd be lucky to get 10 second loops at this rate given the admitted game file size and that thumbnail he posted of all the scenes/poses. I personally enjoy the fact he duped his subs for nearly 2 years with endless previews. 9/10 of them wont even be in the "first" release but down the line...

 

[Semetrika]

Someone expected long animations in game? Well i feel sorry for them.

 

[bouioasduncoasd]

I've had a bit of a brain barf just processing all of this back and forth here and from the blogspot (pure cancer there)...
Lemme know if i'm understanding this situation correctly, or if i'm just being autistic... or both.
Cuz I'm genuinely wondering wtf is going on, and here's what I see...


Do we know any other projects beyond him rehashing his Breaking the Quiet series that he's actually done lately? That hasn't already been ripped and plastered all over porn sites everywhere, thus nullifying the need to subscribe to him?
Not a joke question or even a jab at Animo, I'm asking genuinely, because Animo's secrecy, the way he tries to word something as done and basically lies to his supporters faces, and the constant underdelivery, as if it was his personal policy...

It genuinely feels like he literally has nothing that'd give people a reason to subscribe and now he's gonna use BoTS as his ticket, ala Bioasshard, to string along people as his sole project for the next few years, and he seems all too willing to lie to his supporters faces about release dates and qualities on a repeated basis.
Like trying to turn crowdfunded porn game into a meta-ish live service game where you pay to play and beta-test a broken shoddy mess, then get gaslit into thinking "oh we hear the criticisms you raise and we'll get on it right away, but please continue to subscribe and pay us while we fix the issue we made ".

Since I brought up Bioasshard, I just wanna note that: I can at least respect VersusX (the closest comparison i can imagine) for putting their cards on the table early on and saying that Arena was more of a testbed for mechanics, an alpha basically, for actual levels they wanted to do in the "real" Bioasshard game. While their updates haven't been great, and the game not all that polished, at least it seems more good faith to supporters than whatever Animo's selling. (that and it didn't seem like their SOLE project going on, Versus X does comics and other stuff iirc all while making Bioasshard)

Its really quite interesting how this thread has slowly morfed into an Animo hate thread. He's created a Metallica like fanbase. Where most people think his work is okay, but his most loyal fans deeply loathe him.

Personally, I can't really be mad at him. If you can find people gullible enough to keep falling for your bullshit, then they kinda have it coming imo. Sex sells, and you can make a good profit just by postponing the climax. The only problem is that if you do that it doesn't matter how good your product is. People will hate you for it. Honestly, like I said before. If you critizise him but you are one of the people slowly turning him into a millionaire, maybe you're part of the problem.

Regardless, it doesn't matter how good or bad the game will turn out to be. People will string him up for the tiniest problems they have with it. It will never be good enough.

Well,this thread is like that because the teaser is small and every secret was revealed till page 6 so people are starting speculating about anything

 

[Mandroid69]

I feel like all this hate would've been avoided if he just said "I'll let you guys know when it's ready" while posting weekly updates. If something ain't ready don't give it a release date.

Animo has release day tourettes.

Still, I honestly believe he thinks he can fulfill those deadlines, but developing a sandbox ue5 game gets out of hand quick, and suddenly you're buried in shit to fix and change.
Just a little less optimistic deadlines would help us all.

Its easy to make something that is too ambitious. I think he should've stuck with just making playable sex scenes. As that is what most people are interested in anyway. Then, if it does well. You can expand your next project, or the next one after that.

Making a fully playable survival game with interactive sex scenes is just too much for such a small team. Stick to what you know you can do, and expand when you can.

Well,that would be a generic porn game,like Home together.Yes it looks good,nice anims ye,but man,there used to be plot in porn.It is much more interesting with story and cutscenes than just go there fuck that

"Plot" in porn is truly overrated if its just a watered down story that's been told a thousand times before. BiTS is just Tomb Raider with sex. Nothing much original about it. I'd rather have a creator commit to something at least a bit more original. Unless its fully commited to being a parody, and it uses characters/locations/canon from excisting properties.

But that wasn't really even my point. Having a polt is fine if you can afford it. But I don't think it the pronographic nature of the product should suffer under the promise of a plot.

I agree,it shouldn't, but for people like me,even the most detaliated,beautiful natural sex sequences in 500 poses,will mean nothing if it's just a scene viewer.If not a plot, than at least a nice setting which animo is going towards.Tombs,secrets,bunkers,everything.The point is, sex is much more enjoyable when you have at least to do something for it.Porn in porn games, in my opinion should feel like a fair reward,that's why I don't like and encourage games that are basically scene viewers.

 

[Astrel]

I just hope he delivers something nice.Something enjoyble and replayable,because after all that waiting and blueballing,if it will be a 15 minutes long buggy mess with 2 scenes,bruh,we riot

I think disdain for him began in the latter half of BTQ. That's when his delay parade went full time. It took him around 14 months for BTQ 4, 12 more for BTQ 5, another 6 of hyping a seamless clip of BTQ 1-5, and finally about 5 or so months to release both bonuses. Total run time about an hour and half across a span of a slightly more than 3 years. That's not a lot of content for over 200 dollars of support per member if they stayed on for that span.

What people don't understand is that it's perfectly fine to hate the process but enjoy the eventual outcome... and that's what happens with him. But again, no one can honestly defend his delays/excuses/remixed posts from week to week or month to month. Hell he's gone past at least 3 or 4 deadlines for his game this year alone with no end in sight.

And of those delays, there's far too many for them to be random at this point. Go back to most of the BTQ saga. How many times did he post a carbon copy "issue" for each part? How many technical issues can you have across multiple projects and not learn from or avoid them outright? How long did he blame his VA real life issues during the bonus development cycle? And then to turn around and use the same excuse for himself though he did pause collections for a bit.

It's clear he isn't truthful by any stretch or at the very least, vastly over estimates his skill in video/game development. Its become a meme at this point as his delays are not only expected, but predicated time and time again from troll to loyal sub. But for those subs, you can't tell me he hasn't noticed losing thousands since BTQ days to today. He's maintained around 3800ish... a far cry from his heyday. And for BITS cycle, he hasn't really gotten many new subs or they cancel the one's fed up with waiting, or just found it for free.

I think if he started making deadlines, he'd gain support back. Or at the least, release more content along the way. The teaser was a glorified walking sim and now it turns out most of the previews he showed over the last 2 years wont be in this upcoming release but a future one! Hello 2024/25! Until his ethic changes, he dserves the levels of hate he gets.

1) You don't catch autism by trying to follow a large topic on a person. You might go temporarily insane, like I did, trying to understand the truth / who was being truthful, in the Heard v Depp trial though.

2) We are on a pirating site. Most people here don't "need" to subscribe to him to get his stuff... or anyone's stuff for that matter.

3) Animo may be telling the truth when he says the art, music, animations, are all done. The issue is a programmer has to put all those assets into a game world and then script them together to make an interactive experience. So there may be unforseen issues that crop up during the programming phase and that delays stuff.

However, he should do a better job clarifying what is actually fully complete.

4) I wouldn't say he has nothing to show for it. He at least got out a Teaser demo. There are other artists out there, like Likkezg, that have been teasing a demo for their stuff for at least 2-3 years and still haven't produced anything and yet still draws in a ton of dough. Or Wild Life saying that they were actually making an Open World game, when its basically just a sex simulator.

5) Crowdfunded porn game... you mean like that one that Studio FOW made that was and still is crap I can't even remember that game's name anymore. Actually there is quite a few bad games out there that are basically crowd-funded porn game that isn't really a game or fun.

 

[SunnySanity]

Update now it's a different excuse from last time, assumedly the sex bug is fixed, says the game now works but has 'features' to work on now. No mention of those last update.

Edit: Animo answered a comment confirming there is no sex scenes with the horse, the game ends before you have 'tamed him'

 

[Dax23]

"Next updates will be much easier to make..."

Famous last words.

Yeh that makes sense.

by the by
I didn't mean i "caught autism" CUZ of the cancerous discussion, more like I was worried if my autistic tendencies pre-"AnimoPr0n's Beasts in the Sun: Civil War (tm)" were clouding my vision of the situation.

Also, whenever I talk about supporters and crowdfunding, I was probably being too general. To me at least, I don't really assume anyone here (including myself) is an actual supporter, let alone people that go here on lurker accounts (like i was for a little while)... kinda just me blabbing and gossiping at this point about something that was (and still does seem) pretty interesting.
Afaik, crowdfunding is a very general category, right? I always figured patreons and such were some form of it, given they fit the moniker: a product that is funded by the public that subscribe/donate to a creator/work in progress. I guess for Substar/Patreon though its more of an over-time deal instead of a strict goal-deadling/backer thing that i've heard about with Kickstarter or indieGoGo.

(I haven't tried the Studio FOW game but I've heard that despite its efforts, it was kinda lacking in both being a game and being a porn sim/porn product... damn shame that one : \ )

Funny you mention Likkezg, cuz i've tried his half life demo and it was pretty fun. But i think that guy was pretty open about their focus being on other things and when they were gonna put the Alyx project on the backburner/abandoned.
It's something I just wish Animo would do, in terms of blunt honesty and evidence of recent (at the time of posting) assets or work. It's not really a needed thing since people that support him are essentially donating to a creator they like, but I think it'd at least help from an optics perspective, y'know?

But Animo gonna Animo

 

[bouioasduncoasd]

The next BoTS demo probably be out by September or October at this rate, but ey'
who knows what'll happen

til' then its back to games like EcchiCraft or Lost Chapter or such

Likkez is the best,I dont care that he is not done much since then,he is the best
