VN Ren'Py Abandoned Come Inside [v0.2.1] [ttll]

[Abhai]

Holding out to do a review as this is a promising game, has amazing top quality visuals, but damb does it have very little content its all oral fixated & the 1 sex scene in the game is 2-3 animations long at best very minimal in the sex department, At the moment I would give the game 2 & a half out of 5 stars

what would you expect from the second release?
there are some highly popular games where the "sex department" highlights in the first 4-5 releases are mc holding hands with a girl/woman...i would say there is enough content for the current development state in this game.
yet, if youre evaluating this game as 2.5 (out of 5) because "lack of sex content/animations", perhaps it is better for you to "play" lifeselector games, or some instant fuckfests games, such as lukesway and similar, or just skip it all and watch porn videos. this is not a game for you, im afraid, nevermind its amazing visuals....

it doesnt matter how long this game is in development, yet how many updates it has, and this is only on beginning.
the dev is slow, you can like or dislike it, it doesnt matter for the game itself.
and ofc you can state your opinion freely, yet you should be able to take a criticism of your opinion as well.

No slow, but milking development

no one stops you to cancel your pledges, support other more worthy&non-milking games, and stop visiting/trolling in this thread.
he doesnt set&miss release deadlines, doesnt give a fake excuses (investing more of his creativity into those, than in actual game developing) as milking devs do, he says he is on very slow side, so it is up to you, and anyone else, if he is willing to support him or not.

I'm sorry man but at this point this is not "slow" is just pure laziness especially if he's doing this full time...

Xumeey, like nothing bad, but special predilection to this topic, says about propensity to homosexuality. The conclusion is not mine, but old Freud's.

and what is the problem?

upaibrazil, my comment was probably written a long time ago, and to answer yours, let me know what page it was on, and then we can discuss it.

Man, I want this game to do well. But just want to say the game has been out for about a year and a half. In the first 8 months or so we had three releases, with the third separated from the first two by about a 4-5 month interval. Now we're going on 8 months since then for this next release.

All I'm saying is that we might be looking at a geometric sequence here.

Tough shit, guess we'll gonna have to wait a bit longer for updates then...

but why so long to release an update?

plz make a mac download, need love for those inferior apple users out there

nope

Anyone here a patron of the dev, or have an in on the dev? Would love to know has there been any communication at all from the dev regarding this, or can we expect an "abandoned" tag behind the title sometime soon? This was a recent find for me, so I'm completely out of the loop on the dev and his schedules and such, but the interval between updates kinda does seem worrying to me. :/

 

[Kakato]

I think that Abhai, myself and a few people here are patiently waiting for the update. However, if there's no update at the end of the year, I would lie if I said that I'm still cool with waiting without a single news. I hope we'll get at least a long and detailed post/progression by ttll until then. Peace

You don't have to be a patreon to communicate with the dev. Sometimes he even chats and answers questions in here.

It is not recommended, but you should be able to transfer the "game" folder from the windows file into a random Ren´Py Mac game. I´ve tried with a couple of games, and even though it is not perfect, you should manage to play the full game. I´ve discovered that you might have some issues opening saved games if you´ve closed the game, but if you play it all in one go you should be fine.

Ok. Didn't know the dev was on here as well. Main thing is development of the game is on going and this isn't going to be abandoned sounds like. This has to be one of the best games I've found in ages, art is excellent as is the writing which is rare.

 

[KekWGgWP]

As far as i saw the posts on this topic, seems like there are no news for update yet, it's long time since i visited this game, i replayed it to refresh my memories but i'm kind of disappointed that there's no info for the update because i expected one after so much time.

 

[Dr. Psychedelic]

This game's Production is slow but man it's quality is State of The Art
we will get an update before 30 Dec 2020
so till then Merry Xmas in Advance

 

[MrDL]

I keep forgetting the name of this game when I think of it, only got back here because of someone's signature and still forgot what it was until I actually got to the topic and saw the first post.‍

 

[Self Made]

I've been in the discord, and was a patron, and sure.. He is relatively active in the discord, but he's not answering any questions that actually matter, that's the problem. Maybe he'll talk when someone has a question about a character, or someone praising him for how amazing they think the game is. But when it comes to "when's the next update?", that question never get's answered. "It's a work in progress", "It'll be ready when it's ready".

"It'll be ready when it's ready"..? It's been 8 months man! He's posted nothing on his patreon but wallpapers at the end of every month, and a "sneak peek of episode 3!" where we basically get a picture and that's it. No status updates, no reassurance that any progress is even being made, no communication whatsoever. I think those are very reasonable things to expect from somebody that you're paying money to every month. Whether it's intentional manipulation or just a byproduct of unprofessionalism, it doesn't look good either way.

One thing that I can't complain about is the quality of the game. The concept of the story isn't anything earth shattering, it's pretty basic but it's done well, and the art is some of the best I've personally seen and because of this I still find myself trying to give this guy the benefit of the doubt sometimes. I used to defend him and try to convince myself that the quality is going to be worth the wait. But the only way that I could see myself having any interest in this guy's work at this point, is if the amount of content in the next update is proportionate to the amount of time it's taken to produce the content(in accordance with the rate at which updates were previously being produced at).

So if the previous update took him 3 months to create 20 minutes of content and he releases the game in December or beyond, I'm expecting an hour(+) worth of play time, unless somehow, someway, the update is soooo amazing that I end up abandoning that metric ^, but I highly doubt that will happen.
I don't think people are going to be very forgiving this time around if he's been collecting patreon pledges for 8 months and comes out with an update that has 20 minutes of playtime and is anything short of spectacular.

I hope I'm wrong though. I guess only time will tell.

The time frame is concerning. Not simply because of this game, but because of how very, very common of a pattern this has been with games here on F95: the developer has an idea, they're excited about it, they push out updates regularly. After a while, doing it starts becoming more routine and it becomes more difficult to focus on the project; so the updates start to slow, and then eventually taper off and just stop all together.

the story in this is really weird...the mc is jus a perverted stepping stool
