Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.07.01] [Aleksey90]

[armion82]

I really appreciate your insight on this. As someone who actually develops games you are in a good place to offer the other perspective! You also make a good argument about not being able to dedicate more time before the funding is there. I am usually a Patron for a couple diff games every month, not all of which are fully developed games. I like supporting up and coming games, too! That said Aleksey's posted goal to 'contribute more time' on his Patreon was met for months. I have no idea what his home life is like or how much time he has, but we can't just pay blindly to something that may or may not ever update again. I think there should be a degree of 'good faith' on both sides. Sometimes we pay to show we want more, sometimes they develop even when the Patrons aren't there to show they are producing something we will enjoy. This is just my opinion, people are certainly entitled to disagree.

You probably missed the part that he needs to help his parents for a couple of weeks or even a whole month.

A Percentage Done, Like other games, would be a welcome feature.

maxbishup explained that nicely, some hero posts the 30 USD tier early version instantaneously. Which actually is supposed to be the test version At first. So we should not really fault a Dev who’s test version is leaked that there still are bugs.

That would explain the first 1-2 bughunting patches. 5 patches is kinda the norm for this game.

Ok next time you'll only get 1, the last 1.

Yeap, that's what I plan to do.

WHAT?? No way, I gotta catch them ALL. I mean how am I going to complain about the Bugs and lack of Chocolate Chip Cookies for WEEKS if I don't get EVERY update and Bugfix. Such CRUELTY can NOT be allowed. I NEED to complain about the bug that has never been fixed preventing me from accessing the (NON-Existent) Chocolate Chip Cookie Content.

Just a thought

I don't know why but at a certain point the game starts to give me ren'py error screens. These always happen at night when I go to bed and in the morning at breakfast time and once they startet they come every day. I can skip the error screens by clicking 'ignore' but I'm quite sure I miss something in the game due to possibly not starting events. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Accept from giving myself a couple of bucks in the beginnig (like 1 or 2 grand) and skipping the item delivery time from online orders with instant delivery from time to time I didn't do anything with the cheat mod, so the normal progress with the girls should be ensured. Restarting from the beginnung does not change anything, after a couple of ingame days the same error screens start again. Can anybody help?

First of all, did you install Fix Bug 7 or not?
Second, send the errors text.
Third, do not worry, we will solve it.

Are you a patreon?
Developing such a game takes time and money, if you're just a freeloader be grateful for what you get, unless you're not a patreon you have no leg to stand on.

I am a bit frustrated too, but i prefer that he does it right.

This site, as everyone must have noticed, was created with the intention of promoting the games for free to people who cannot or do not want to fund a game. If you are a patreon, congratulations. But that doesn't give you the right to criticize someone else's question about updating. I repeat, this is a pirate site, people can complain whenever they want, patreons or not.

Yeah, you ever think about the fact that patrons are the ones posting these games, for you to pirate. Let's see how well it goes without patrons, shall we.

You completely missed the point, how can someone demand from a creator if that person refuses to pay for it?
He can criticize all he wants, I don't care, but to demand without paying is not ok.

I will stop being a patron from next month due to lack of updates. I hope there will be no complaints about me if I wish Alexey a failure with such an attitude towards patrons?

No idea what you are expecting,saying it that way.Also you can support him only when there is a new update.Nobody is forcing you to give money all the time.

Does anyone know if there's going to be any more previews before the release ?

 

[spartan2177]

Just a guess but I'm assuming the dev has been trying to release it the last 2 weeks but keeps running into bugs that delays the release. It would explain why he stopped posting previews, why post more previews when you expect to release tomorrow but another game breaking bug pops up and you have to fix it, constantly delaying release.

 

[crimzin]

I just came back to play this game after I took a break playing it game after the fourth update or so to give it time to progress and I have to say while I enjoyed it, it still lacks some features I would enjoy seeing in the future. I have to ask what are some things you would like to see added or changed. For me the biggest would have to be the beginning.

Spoiler: My problem with the beginning

It is very simple, other patreons who do not find the owners of the site, will continue to promote the games and life will normally follow my friend. I repeat, the fact that you are a patreon does not give you the right to dictate behavioral rules on the site

 

[truerty]

I personally wouldn't like anymore previews. What we got was already too much. Devs should release only limited previews and stick with just telling us what we can expect. Posting too much previews kills the surprise element.

 

[peshoni]

Who's trying to dictate, personally I find whine little snowflakes very amusing..
