This dev likes to remove quests and content when they update so there is a big possibility that the quests that you mention don't exist in the latest version.I really enjoyed playing this game but I'm puzzled by the fact that I reached 100% while still missing 12 quests listed in theYou must be registered to see the links:
- Jingle Balls + Light my fire + Sweet heart + Log out + Blackout + Gnome regrets (I never triggered the mountain trip)
- Call On Me + Blue Balls (Melissa is not doing yoga anymore as she's sitting in her bedoom in the afternoon)
- Day after Tomorrow
- Getting Tipsy (she's never been in the basement, always drinking wine in the living room)
- King of Kong
- Paparazzo
We've been hard at work with the update, as well as something else. I've been meaning to make a post like this for at least a month now, but I always find myself just going back to developing instead. I apologise for this, but it's in my nature. Also, with all the events in my personal life as well as other things within the development, I've become somewhat numb to things leaving me uninterested in any kinda communication. I have received a lot criticism for this, which is totally justified.
When I added the 2k goal that would make me go full time, I always thought that we’d gain more following than that in no time so it was a dumb risk that I took, as it’s not nearly enough to pay for my expenses. People think that we live in some 3rd world country where everything is cheap. Unfortunately that is not the case. We are losing money every month, and I’ve been using my savings to keep myself afloat. Brakus has also expected to gain something out of this project, but so far he’s getting nothing. All the money goes to Oni’s rent and that’s about it.
I tried to lure in more hype by doing animations (in top of everything else I do), but it just became the new norm, leaving me very much overworked. Then I tried hiring VA’s out of my own savings, which also did very little to get this project to the next level. These dumb ideas are all 100% me, and so I’m the only one I can blame for this, lol.
We are getting exhausted with the workload, as I can’t live up to the demands people have on how much content I have to make within a certain schedule. I’m doing writing, all the different graphics containing animations and programming (scripting) as well as marketing (At least I should be doing that, lol ). Whenever there's some setbacks in my private life, the pressure of this humongous workload is depressing.
We realise that with a project of this scale we need to expand our team. The only problem is that we don’t have enough money to pay one person’s ( let alone two ) salary, so how could we hire more people? I know that there’s a lot of people who’d work for us for free, but I’m very skeptical of that sorta arrangements.
I’ve gathered a good sum of cash by going minimalist and selling most of my stuff (which has turned out to be almost a full-time job as well, lol ), and with that we’ve come to the conclusion that we need to do something else to fund this project and ourselves.
Now I don’t really want to go do something completely different as I feel that it would kill all my motivation to continue DBA. So we are making another, way smaller product, that will go straight to sale. We’ve done something similar before with DBA VRNR, so we know it can be done. I promise that It’ll be something our fans will truly enjoy. We are not shutting DBA down, far from it. We are just trying to make sure that we can keep developing it in the future.
That being said, 816 active patrons. Damn, that really is something! We are extremely thankful for all of the pledges we get and that is the reason we refuse to quit! We’ll sort this out, one way or the another! Thank you all!
My 2 cents:I saw Oni type this on the Discord. It might shed some light on the most recent updates:
The main problem is the lack of communication, regular posts on their patreon showing even the boring stuff like programming the engine should be enough to satisfy many patrons, i mean between the 0.6.5 progress update and their next post there is a gap of three fucking months, almost four and between 0.6 and 0.6.5 a 9 months gap. The other big problem is that they constantly delete and change things in their game just to please certain groups, which has made them lose a lot of followers, like deleting the whole voyeur route with Melissa because people thought it was ntr, or the sharing route with the professor. I know a lot of people don't like that kind of stuff and it's understandable, but others saw those actions as a betrayal of their own work and a serious waste of resources (the aforementioned routes where completely illustrated and animated).I saw Oni type this on the Discord.

Hi, i'm new to the game where and how can i get the incest? i'm playing dba v0.6.5.1.YUP ! .... It'll come with 0.03 (the next update )! .... rumors has it ... there will be even MORE! family members to have fun with !
You rename them when you start the game, Landlady to Mom and so on, when you meet them you get that option to rename them.Hi, i'm new to the game where and how can i get the incest? i'm playing dba v0.6.5.1.
if you have saves from a newer version in your saves folder it will crash older versions of the game when you open the save menu, just move your save files from the most recent version somewhere else.Has anyone noticed on old versions opening the save menu crashes the game? Anyone know why you can't save on old versions?
Solid points and I agree. Sounds like they are on the right track with getting more financing by releasing paid stuff. Living off the patreon money and bleeding money every month is just horrible. Surprised the game isn't abandoned with all the mistakes they madeMy 2 cents:
A project can't get traction if you update once every 8 months, that's just the way it works.
You can snowball and keep that schedule once you have a strong following ( summertime saga and the likes) but for that to happen, all of those projects released frequently and consistently in the beginning.
I get that this artwork in particular is a slow craft process, but the big totality of the last update was just remixing the content with little new artwork.
Thank you and i have a question plsYou rename them when you start the game, Landlady to Mom and so on, when you meet them you get that option to rename them.
I don't really remember, the outcome will be the same, but the dialogue different and might be an extra ass flash or something depending on what you picked, best choice is to save before.Thank you and i have a question pls
On the Main Quest Blue Haired Devil, i go tell Traci and she ask to help her steal the new answers, i can agree or refuse.
if i agree or refuse will it affect and change the game?
I kind of have my doubts about that being complete. I mean they added a masturbation option in that same update in bed, and it would have been perfect to add an already done scene in there where it would be optional.The main problem is the lack of communication, regular posts on their patreon showing even the boring stuff like programming the engine should be enough to satisfy many patrons, i mean between the 0.6.5 progress update and their next post there is a gap of three fucking months, almost four and between 0.6 and 0.6.5 a 9 months gap.

The scenes and animations for the sharing route are in the game files and the voyeur route already had a lot of cg and animated stuff and some of them where implemented in early builds.I kind of have my doubts about that being complete.
