Hey Folks,

Last week nothing important happened so there was not much to report on. Most of the content has now been adding and I currently working on the hardest part which is the night club.
I have left this to the end as it is the most important for both Lucy and Jenny storylines but also it will become a hub for the other characters as well.

Just to let you know the percentage is based on the scenes left to add to the game and some scene take longer then others or is broken up into multiple parts etc. But once the night-club is finished I can get down to testing as I will be glad to get this over with.

Anyhoo and thanks for your support and for sticking around as I know it can be hard waiting for new content.

Podemo-nos queixar de muita coisa mas nunca deste tipo de comunicação....

# We can complain about Zip on several issues but not on this level of communication. Honest, straightforward, no promises. All we need now is more consistency ( focus and releases ).

2 weeks less 4% hahaha
Seriously, people usually donate money, if you have enough, pass my account number, you'll give it to me.
At least I'm not going to make excuses or deceive you or offer things directly, I'll tell you, if you want to give money away so much, give it to me, at least I'll face it. What difference is there from those people who give you 4 or 3 updates in 1 year for 2 or 5 minutes of play?
That's why I will never be able to become a Patreon for any game of this type. In the end, it's always the same, they end up blinding their money.
I haven't seen anyone yet that didn't happen to them.

Não estás bem, há bom remédio...

# We live in a free market and free speech society. There are always other options...

Your message is clear and I could easily agree with most of it but it's a bit unfair:

- People donate on Patreon to support a dev, not to buy a product. I know, I know... Patrons want the game... But they can get it for free (as they should). If people felt wronged, they'd just stop it. Some cases are quite debatable I know (RA) but nevertheless...

- Many devs do have a milking strategy that makes them money for very little input. That doesn't mean most of them do it. Have you ever tried to make a game like this, even with a powerful machine? I did, it sucks... Quite cumbersome, too much workload for too little outcome. I can't afford to waste that much time. But zip keeps doing it, after all these years, and he's the only one.

I'm not standing by Zip. I think he's been many times less than honest and he's taking too long to release decent updates. If we don't get more devs on board soon, this will drag for years to come, doomed to incompletion....

Still, let's be honest and balanced in our critics.

Go to hell, Zip! I refuse to translate this game. Blah, blah, blah and nothing else.

Hey Folks,

Do your thing Zip!
Can't wait to see what our boy Bobby gets up to.

And don't worry about the couple of guys complaining.
They love to bitch but you know they'll be here as soon as the game updates.

 

[momojean]

Is this guy serious? Is he even working on the update? Honestly, I doubt it!
The big problem is that there are people here and on Patreon who are stupid enough to encourage him in this stupid attitude.

maybe you are too innocent or you didn't read completely.. -” But once the night-club is finished I can get down to testing” - so after 100% there will be testing and other days and weeks...

facepalm...

Quando vi o facepalm...

# Everytime someone lands a facepalm on my posts, I know who that is... This time I was wrong... Care to explain?

I simply don't endorse your milking theory. Things could/should flow more smoothly? Sure, I do think so. But what If we had more devs delivering? Would this even be an issue...?

If he's in the wrong (lies, stalling, ghosting,...), I bash him.

If he rambles, going off track and wasting time, I point it out to him.

If he says it's gonna take a while to deliver and he bluntly enumerates his reasons, I don't like it but I accept it.

If he releases a good update, I praise him.

Bashing is only fun when the target has it coming...

You keep repeating about "milking" even though I mentioned that I'm not interested in that aspect... I'm just showing him the strategy of continuously delaying and making various excuses every time I'm trying to diversify… apparently if you keep clapping you end up thinking you're Christ or something…
Yes like that ... in fact show a woman, more drama... or hysteria ...

Enfim...

# Seriously where is this coming from...? wtf... Having a laugh? Be my guest... But at least bring something funny next time so we can all laugh together...

Strategy of continuous delaying and making excuses... That's milking in my book, but let's put it aside then... What's zip's point then?

"Strategy of continuous delay and making excuses" is milking when he can get money, but he uses that because he can't develop the story mainly for various reasons, either because he's not very good at it or he doesn't have the time

Entao que o diga...

# But for every single month going by, he cashes in a decent amount of money... He could simply post it'll take some time because he's running through some issues (his stream would suffer), he could pause bilings (again),... So if he makes time work for him (due to lack of skills, personal issues, packed schedule, whatever...), he's milking imo... You just racionalize it differently...

If you recall him as Axeman he used to pull this kind of stuff too. And it wasn't milking, just like you say. But back then he didn't have these funnels...

Honestly, I do think too that he's struggling for whatever reason. But I truly believe this is his M.O. (can't make room for it, testing a million ideas, what have you...). No matter how much we beat this tree it won't bear any more fruit. We need someone else on board quickly to make this feasible...

^^ the testing start on 85% ^^
in a reaply on patreon Zip, say last 15% him mean are testing the game

Art by Zip

thx to lucy i feel better ^^

 

[jktugg]

The pictures are fire! Zip is genius in this art in my opinion. Milking, not milking doesn't matter when he and he only is able to produce such things. Damn I wish I could get Aladdin's lamp somehow, then I would wish to lock up ZipFun with his PC for a year Ohh.. and he could be rewarded depending on likes amount every update gets. Like spare minutes or so.

Every now and then I come back here, sometimes with popcorn, some others with a glass of wine and, since I don't trust series nor movies since Game of Thrones shitty ending, I found it entertaining to come here and read all the drama on this thread which is no longer a serious game development. By that I mean: Zip not fulfilling his promises, game not being released, game development progression incredibly going back in those random percentages like it's getting undone everyday. Then people starting random discussions about subjects no one care, dedicating so much life time to fight a random dude elsewhere... The guy which always stars with the Portuguese sentence (only god knows why, but bless you for you always make me laugh)... Regarding the update, some days it's about to be released, then is far away to be finished. Anyway, depending on the country you're from he's receiving from 2 to 4, maybe 5, minimum wages per month by doing nothing, the real mvp. Respect Zip & thank you all for this new hobbie I have found to entertain myself while being bored. Better than a book, not better than tlor, ofc.

Seriously!? you didn't rub it enough, do you want to rub a lamp now?
