He needs money for Black Rune so I’m guessing he making a short NTR game for us to play by selling it and using funds for Black Rune development we might get a taste of the NTR he making in the rpg by play the NTR simulation
I'd also say it's him trying to not become so tunnel-visioned on one project that he burns himself out. Usually focusing 100% on 1 thing 100% of the time (a bit of an exaggeration, but still holds true even if it's only "a majority of the time") leads to loss of perspective. Pausing and doing other things helps keep your perspective fresh and you are better able to spot things that seemed like great ideas on paper, but are actually pretty bad in practice.
One thing to mention, don't forget that the latter can also be an issue, where you have devs with 3 or god forbid 4 projects going on at once and sitting in stagnation. It's good to have variety but there's obviously a balance to the workload and what can be an excuse to less burnout leads to ironically even more many times.
Well there are bad examples of this too, there is for example Technobrake which decides every month that he has a side project he works on and keeps delaying development for his game which went on for years (he released a ton of minigames with no essence in that time)
This is definitely true, a balance needs to be maintained, and the developers need to remember what their main project is. You can't just sideline a project and only put in 10% effort on it and still expect people interested in it to stay with you. And you can't really call that your main project if it's basically taking up an afterthought's amount of effort.
Technomilker is just a laughing stock for everyone except his patrons, there's exactly 0 sane people still interested in NP
To be fair though, despite Technobrake being on some high bullshit lately, he used to make fun games and was quite consistent, even now while he's definitely milking the shit out of NP he still updates the game quite regularly which is waaaay more than what can be said about a lot of other devs, especially certain western ones without pointing any fingers.
nah man u want him to even add more time developing by porting the game? That would be way too huge of a mess than it was worth, especially from RPGMV to unity... Maybe for future projects but that would take immense amount of time for a game which will be RPGM like anyway, now worth imo
On top of that, I'd rather not have to run the game through ReiPatcher to play an incomprehensible mess with stability issues when it's finally out.
haha
Pastaskii maybe dont know what he wanna make.Just pop up many ideas,I think he should focus on developing one certain game with some certain ideas.
He said he will post a demo of this short game on mid-June. Hope he can keep his world.
