why not go to subscribestar? animopron is there
I'm exploring that option... but I need to talk with my bank.

The good thing about subscribstar is that they are no longer using paypal as a payment method, which is why they are not that harsh on fringe content... BUT, paypal is the reason must developers use Patreon, because is very practical and easy...

So, if I want to use subscribestar, I would need an actual international bank account, also, given the economic laws on my country I would need to declare every penny I earn, and probably pay taxes and more shit like that... you know, grown up stuff that I don't like.

Either way, I'm looking into it, If I decide to use it, you guys will know about it.

Its not entirely Paypals fault as well, the ultimate mastermind behind it all is Mastercard and Visa. They (paypal) are in the same situation as Patreon, either the listen to them or they suffer.

You should have just lied to patreon about the content of your game, every developer who has a popular game on this site does. Patreon isnt gonna download and look to find beastiality or incest/shota content, all you have to do is make is SEEM like the game is vanilla but your fans will secrtetly know everything is the same.

Example: The Tyrants developer gets away with Rape/Incest but he never discloses the fact that the family is related he only names the NPC's of his game by their actual name instead of "Mom" "Dad" "Sister". He also makes sure to omit any dangerous Patreon threatening notices by simply telling players "certain scenes have been added, look for them" unless ofcourse its nothing that will get him in trouble which means he is able to go into detail about it.

TLDR: Just put your game back on Patreon and tell Patreon there's no beastility/incest/shota content, the real fans will know your just saying that to get away with the game being on patreon like every other developer is doing on this site, to be honest your the first developer to actually remove their work out of fear from patreon usually everyone just alter/tweak their work and Patreon goes about their business.

Well, they DID actually downloaded and played the game, because some sad bitter soul reported me, they ALSO made a web search of every single profile on every single site I'm in, including this one... And if I decided to edit the game and "lie" to patreon, I would need to edit every single line in the game that says "mom" "son" "sister" etc, also make an "unofficial" patch (which they are also aware of is a thing)... because the posibility of the same sad bitter soul or even a new one reporting me again, will mean Patreon staff downloading and testing the game once more, and seing through the bullshit.

I don't get why people are still worried about the future of the game, when I'm sure I made the best choice to keep the game alive and uncensored... because I care for it. And if that means I need to work double to get a living out of this and make the games that I want and the way I want to make them... then I will.


Also, I know this may come out of sin of pride, but I like to think I'm not like most devs, because I was a player first.
So no, I won't put The Manor back on Patreon, I prefer to lose money before killing my baby with patches and lies.


Also... and take this as a omen... a LOT of this games that use patches will soon suffer from Patreon's holy crusade... just mark my words.

@Oseo Bones You're a funny guy with good drawing skills that's not doing too badly on patreon. I'm sure you can pull off two projects at a time If you really want to. I mean, there's this dev called Ark Thompson who did it, so at least I think so.

The key for success from what I've noticed is being steady with time/quality. Quality's the hardest, and you can dish it out for sure, but depression episodes and rl shit can fuck up a project big time, the first example that comes to mind being Nergal, dude who used to develop Urban Demons.

So the cards are on the table, now it's all up to you. I just hope you can keep yourself motivated and put your projects to work, as I really enjoy your game.

I would to suggest though, that you keep comedy/dark comedy or just humor in general close to you, as you've seem to have a knack for it.

Doc I have two ideas that you could help you.

Considering that you will now be working on the games in pairs with one safe and one unsafe game in terms of Patreon's rules, you could simply have the safe one act as the front for your Patreon page. The donation perks on the side will be longer than usual, you'll have the first few for the safe game and then the "extra" ones for the unsafe game too. I'm not entirely sure how Patreon works but you can ask people for $5 for the safe game and $5.50 for the unsafe game, this way they don't pay much more but they can be separated. Also information on the unsafe game will be shared through Discord.

Another thing you could do would be to start another Patreon page just for the unsafe game and claim the page does something else entirely, you already have an established fan base through here and Discord so you'll get funding for it.

a game where you cant even use a mouse. great
Do you think this is news to anyone on this thread? Did you just register in order to complain about the lack of mouse support that is a function of the game engine and has nothing to do with the developer?

If you want to play the game, there are great resources on the OP. Read the change logs and use them as a road map, start with the walkthrough which will hold your hand through the very beginning of the game and assist you wit game mechanics, then progress to the Guide which is maintained by Golem98. It is not that hard to play the game, you can save time by using shift while moving to "run", you can increase stats by 5 points for any character by using the spend the day with option when you first wake up, you can increase you own stats quickly with the masturbate option.

Enjoy the game, there is a fair amount to see.

Cheers!!

That's a good idea except when some lame-o again reports the game page for having the unsafe content. While everyone who knows the true game behind the front, there will always be that one dude who's like "THIS IS A LIE AND I HATE IT"

No-one knows, man... The developer must be scamming people or something, you knows, he has no actual reason for this delay. I hope he dies!... again!.

EDIT: I mean, no man, there's no date for the release right now. But it will be out eventually, as all things eventually are... out... you know.
sorry for asking, i'm new here, but thx for answering
