And this right here is why I will never support something unfinished, never be a patreon and so forth. I`ll pirate my way through everything that goes v0.1 0.2 0.xx, thats just a platform to milk gullible people(sorry, no offence). I`d be more than happy to pay a full price for something finished that`s worth the money.

I mean, if I would be a patreon since the start(I think that`s over a year), at 5 euros pledge I would now have payed over 50-60 euros for what:
1. A game that changed over and over again. Consider the starting story and everything that went down and what we have now.(don`t care about the whole Eric war, it`s not the point)
2. A game that won`t even be finished!!! (I don`t care if he`ll pick it up again in 6 months time, that`s ZERO)
I`d be pissed as hell right now, but since I payed what he deserves, as in jack shit, I`m just sad, since I liked the game, even with all the flaws. Ann simply won me over and that`s that. :)

And now people are jumping onto that other game bandwagon, which is just hilarious. I don`t care if the game will be good, this dude does not deserve your attention. Other creators will take him as an example, like look how he fools people, we can do that too. I mean, if we look at all the crappy games that are in v0.something right now, this is allready happening. Everyone wants to milk you, and that`s about it(with a few exceptions, I guess). They all just stretch out games foreeeeever with "monthly updates", it`s good business for them, but not for us...

Stop using patreon and other payment methods like that if you care about your money. Make a worthy donation to a creator that has a finished product and you enjoyed it...

Don't worry~the OP would add a new label "Frozen/Suspended" soon after the 0.13 version released.:FeelsBadMan:

Finished/unfinished is just a label, frankly speaking. And doing monthly releases not a "good business" but one possible way to survive. Adult gamedev is not like usual gamedev, with publishers and huge budgets. It's completely different.

Thanks for posting this here @IDeaDHeaDI

While I though that there wouldn't be any more previews I really don't mind another.

But I wonder what Ann will do to deserve the punishment?

However, this preview just makes me even more furious with patreon, now that we were getting some excelent content with BB, that was going for it's ending. It's a real shame seeing this project in hold.

So just to let this clear: FUCK PATREON!!!:mad:

Well, we had a very long week, but we're back now, so I'm going to explain what happened for people who don't follow us on discord or telegram.

If you missed it, our page was suspended for a couple of days. Recently Patreon has decided to crack down on certain, em, let's call it sexual preferences, so now Big Brother is banned from this website. We're still going to finish 0.13 because it's almost done anyway, but 0.13 will be the last version of Big Brother and we won't be working on it any time soon. Maybe we will find an alternative way to fund it in the future, but until then, the work on Big Brother is suspended. By the way, we won't be sharing BB v0.13 on Patreon, you'll have to look for it somewhere else. Oh, and it's going to be free.

Some players asked us to release a version of the game without the forbidden content and then release a patch that unlock everything back. This type of behavior is still against Patreon's rules, so it's not going to help. It didn't help Dating My Daughter, for example. We don't see any point in trying something that we know isn't going to work.

Having to stop Big Brother's development wasn't easy for us, but we had some time to think and here's what's we're going to do now:

As you already know, we had another project in the works for a while now. We had our hands full with Big Brother, so we didn't have much time to work on it before, but, hey, that's not really a problem anymore, is it? Now that we can't continue working on Big Brother, we're going spend all of our free time on our new project called Glamour. You can go to out main page to read more about the game. The game is still early in development, so it doesn't have a playable build yet, but we're working full-time to create one so you can check our how awesome our game is gonna be as quickly as possible.

Just like we were posting images from Big Brother, we are going to show you screenshots, describe new game mechanics and tell you more about our next game. Stay tuned, it's gonna be fun!

Nothing really new for people here I guess. BB is suspended, can't be moded, 0.13 will be last version for now, Glamour is a new one. But confirmation for masses is a fine thing. Nothing to be picky about.
