I'm glad to see that the majority of the team will be making another game in this style, as well as making another DP game. Judging from the character art that's been released, the new artist is significantly better than the old one (or at least has better direction). So that's good to see. I do wish they would have focused on this game instead, but I understand focusing on what's likely to make more money.
As an artist who has struggled to find an audience, it is super depressing seeing an abandoned game that hasn't had a post since Sept 23 or a release in almost a year still making more than 2k a month though. Especially knowing it's going to one person who isn't working and isn't even paying the other team members. I really hope that the patreon somehow gets shut down so these people can stop wasting their money.
I feel you, man. I work as an artist in my day job and only do game dev stuff in my spare time, and seeing peers who at first were passionate about their work then, later on, became unmotivated and apathetic to their work... just makes me sad. Not to mention how they then ran away with the money that's supposed to go to the people who
are actually motivated to work is straight-up scummy. It's actually ironic because GZone, and by extension—this game, are heavily motivated by Breeding Season. And if you're vaguely aware of what happened to that game and its subsequent
"successor", Cloud Meadow, you'd know that all three failed due to clashes between creativity and money.
Very glad that the people who were working on this game and the DP parody have broken off and made their team. I just hope that they manage to keep motivated and break the mold since the
"Monster Farm" adult game genre is full of unfortunate projects such as this one and Cloud Meadow.
