There are already hundreds of posts regarding the ban of incest material by patreon, but I think the real reason is that DS just didn't want to further develop this game.
There are still games on Patreon with similar content, where Mom becomes a landlady or cousins become friends. And then a patch simply restores the old facts. ( e.g. Man of the House, School Love & Friends, and other).
A way that certainly DS could have gone, even if the contrary is claimed.
My opinion is that he will never continue the game, so it's up to all fans (especially renderer and modder) to continue the story and bring at least some pathes to an end.

The contrary was the reason given, and included not being allowed to make those changes.
Whether or not it's the truth is irrelevant now, but it's still believable.

I'm going to sound like an arsehole here, but any modders who do actually continue the game should be very few of them. The mods haven't exactly been of the best quality.
In fact, the majority of them have been pretty poor in quality, and include renders that are pretty horrible too, and really don't work as part of the game.
A few work as a nice expansion to concepts within the game, particularly those that aren't Max just fucking his family or ones that change character personalities in drastic ways. Saying that, it's still a pretty jarring turn around that Kate of all people was so easily "turned" to being amenable to Max's dick and creampies.

Imho, they'd be better off trying to start fresh from the ground up. Either with a "Patreon friendly" project that gets "modded back" to be an incest themed game, or a non-Patreon funded project that doesn't have to adhere to the restrictions.

Find it really hard to believe that with 3 months he didn't change the game prior to patreon enforcing their new rules.

It probably wouldn't have been easy, but if he really wanted to he could have.

He just didn't want to and that's why he's on a cash diet now.

Ds early on said he did not like writing incest. I believe he admitted that bondage was more his thing. Game reflects it. I was concerned as soon as Eric was introduced
It seemed like DS was less engaged after Eric was so poorly recieved.

I wonder if a work around patreon something like. You download the cg via patreon and he sends a gamelink would of worked. Patreon would of had some coverage as it would be harder to prove he was selling incest games. DS could of claimed they were seperate and his game was advertising skills for future games or perhaps just an extra. Not sure if patreon really cares or if this is pressure from paypal. So such an idea might work, at least for a time. Such fictions keep attorneys employed.

Now don´t get me wrong, I like this game a lot (that´s why it is my profile pic) but it really isn´t what it used to be anymore. I would have loved to see more content in the last few patches! And after playing it for the fourth time (without cheats ofc) it became more and more repetitive. Not cause I´ve played it for the fourth time but because the same events happen over and over again with usually not much variety. I really like the characters even though they could be fleshed out a lot more, especially cause the later patches did close to none to make them as interesting as they´d deserve it. Especially Mom and Lisa, which are my top favorites :)

So Patreon's stupid rules are the reasons why this game was Abandoned?
But this game felt Soo Finely worked on though. WTH, isn't there any platform the dev could work on?

No, Patreon forced the game out of their platform. It was abandoned because the dev didn't want to continue developing it.

Why would the dev do that? Was it that he felt he wasn't making enough from this to continue in another way, or was he Really feeling that bad about the game being kicked out or am I missing something?
This game was the first one I tried from this site and from all the 50+ ones I've played after, still one of my fav. :/

It was a few steps.
- He started it the way he wanted it to be
- People paid him
- People didn't like the ways he intended it to be (ntr stuff with Eric, no idea why he called it incest story of your life if he didn't intend to let you have fun with anyone though)
- He changed stuff
- He lost interest and canceled at the most conveniant opportunity with his "Mimimi, Patreon won't let me continue the game" bullshit. Other games did the same with changing the family to roommates and stuff, but he is the only one who won't get away it with ... Yeah.

The money, plain and simple.
If the Patreon crackdown didn't happen, this game would still be in development, probably seeing more development than Glamour, and we'd be up to version 0.16 now.

We were told that they (Dark Silver/Sandlust Games) were looking into Patreon alternatives for funding so they could continue development after a delay whilst they looked for it.
Unfortunately either a viable alternative couldn't be found or more likely, taking advantage of the crackdown and fallout from it to swap projects entirely.

Given that Glamour is still early in development, there's really not much to see there. That is, assuming you don't mind having to connect to the dev's server to be able to play at all, and even use any saves made during playtime since they're stored server side, as opposed to client side.
Yes it's sketchy as hell, and absolutely non-consumer/non-gamer friendly but that's the choice that's been made to prevent piracy... Despite that the previous (ineffective) DRM for Big Brother was regularly cracked before it was dropped entirely, many who played the cracked version from here went on to become Patrons, and I'd guess that the majority of them have ceased their patronage, due to both the change of project and the draconian measures taken to combat piracy of a porn game.

Especially since it's the second version of Glamour, so he dropped Glamour for Big Brother to drop it for his Glamour remake again x'D

Wonder how long before we see a Big Brother remake... With the added bonus of the cams being more than just the protagonist's source of income, or an actual plan when it comes to development.

What always bugged me, and was practically never expanded on, was why the house already had a camera in it.
I mean, it was the ex-husband's house that he gave to the family many years after leaving them, with a camera already set up in the lounge.
Then there's the much later addition to Eric, where he's a con-man who knows about the house, wants it, and logically (I know, applying logic to this game is stupid) knows about the lounge cam, and has access to it.

It always felt like there was some sort of story there, but Dark Silver's concern for money vastly outstripped anything approaching artistic integrity, so that went the way of the dodo.
