Appreciate that! I have been playing with animations for a while now, I'm a huge fan of them but I will only do them when the time is right.
I never leak the release myself here, that would be disrespectful to the supporters. But this is a piracy forum. Here you are at the mercy of 'heroes'.
I have voiced my opinion a few times:
I don't mind leaks but I would prefer if people waited at least some time because, as many devs have mentioned, it does affect support numbers for small developers.
I dislike DRM so I will postpone doing that for as long as I can but if immediate leaks happen on every single release I'll have to do something...
With that said, this is still an important community as many find games through here.
Just ignore the few bad apples. I don't even
see their messages - for my own mental sanity. If you can't have a respectful discussion I will just ignore you and expect you to move to a different project, there are a million games out there.
I read all the posts about the party. Really appreciate all the ideas and feedback.
I
love the toga party concept. It's an opportunity to really escalate things and go in a slightly different direction, compared to other games.
I don't think I did the best I could in the OG, so I also understand why it's so conflicting.
One other factor I didn't see anyone mention - but I think it's very relevant to the conversation - is that I found it hard to pull off anything truly fun because the narrative actually didn't progress enough by that stage - this really limited what I could do.
I have talked a bit about the Acts in the past but I don't want to spoil too much.
It's an important narrative tool. Act 1 is literally the Setup. The Discovery stage.
Act 2 starts after the player locks out permanently Tease Queen or Submissive Pet route but I won't reveal how that will play out just yet.
