I stand by what I said, it wasn't properly displayed and was used as a bait. Not a horrendous marketing tactic, just not on the up and up.

Took me a second to remember what happened. You obfuscated what tier was necessary for the cg images, while being open that patreon was necessary. While yes you were quite clear that patreon was necessary (and I have no problem with that) muddying the waters one what tier was needed was my issue.

So yeah it is even better :)
I'm sorry, can you please clarify what you mean by obfuscation? We only ever had one main tier:

1712124668559.png

As you can see, it mentions CGs right there, as it always has.

Now technically there was also a $1 tier that you might be referring to, but that only included Discord and voting, not even the game without CGs. The CG-less game was actually provided for free, one month after every Patron update, right here on F95. All of this information was (and still is) laid out on Patreon for all to see. I'd also personally come to this thread to post and respond to users as much as I could because I didn't want any misunderstandings. I even responded to your first post back when you posted it.

Can you please point out which of my messages you feel were examples of "bait" or "muddying the waters"? I'm sorry if I confused you in some way but you're accusing me of a lot of things and I don't think that's very nice or fair when it's factually untrue. :)

It's incredible how you still argue over these things after all these years. If only you had this tenacity when you were still working on the game.
Hey now, I'm just responding to someone, neither of us are arguing. And I'm sorry if you're upset at the game not being worked on anymore, but saying "If only you had this tenacity..." is a bit unfair.

I've been very transparent throughout this thread. The primary purpose of this project was for me and my friends to learn how to make a porn game together, and have fun doing it, that's all. Which we did do! We worked 40 hours a week on it on top of my regular 40 hour a week job. I also spent thousands of dollars of my own money every month paying for the writing and art.

Things didn't work out obviously, and that's okay! But we were all tenacious up until I got sick and lost my job and couldn't afford to keep it running anymore. Just saying! :)

I really appreciate your work as much as the next guy; but I think you could've been a few thousand dollars richer if you stuck to the character CG's instead of the scene CG's, or paid for more scenes.


Man I'm still so sad that I won't see more Iannan....

To be fair, our artist was a monster. She was pumping out 8 CGs a month which is ridiculous. That's two images a week, both with at least 2 full body characters. Hardest worker I've ever met.

That was not my point, I was kinda saying that most CG's for scenes were unwarranted and the money was better off being spent in writing. It is impressive that she was able to make 8 CG's in a month, but I can't help but think that money could've been Lieutenant Dhrean blowing my back out or Lara making me eat her out in front of everyone in Bitter Lake.

Oh my bad I misunderstood, when you said "paid for more scenes" I thought you meant scene art. FWIW, I did spend more on writing than art every month, we had multiple writers.

I haven't tried the game out yet i made a post a while back looking for the game is this something you'd say have plan for development still even if its slow or the game is put on the shelf. I do appreciate that there a clear response that you no longer had time for it instead of the whole ghosting thing a few other popular games hads done like simbro for a while

I'm really sorry but I'm busier than ever nowadays. New job, new house, car accident back in April, etc etc. Also it wasn't just me working on it, there were many staff members all off doing their own thing now.
