Others Abandoned Dandy Boy Adventures [Halloween 2023 Special] [DandyBoyOni]

[exirock]

It's been a while. And that update was terrible.

Honestly this was one of the first games I played here a long time ago. Nothing much has changed in almost 2 years for this game. They have changed some little things, fixes to the engine, but in terms of adding actual content basically nothing has changed. I wouldn't bother downloading the most recent version. Try in another year. But the dev likes removing content more than he likes adding content.

2 years and you dont see any changes, man you dont play the game at all, cause if you did you wouldnt say it had no changes, the game had map changes and few maps added through the 2years, couple busts remaded (example melissa), engine upgrades, there is content each update, there was one that kinda was short cause was the upgrade of the engine for android port, there is minigames, etc, they are making a game not a porn gallery, you probably might be expecting alot of content each update like does everyone but that is not how it goes, they take time to do things correctly to not have a buggy mess, also to mention the dev when it removes the content its due to changes of the storylines and eventually that content removed might be used later on with some changes, or not.

I meant with regards to new content for the characters. Hardly anything new in terms of sex scenes has been added. Yes the maps have changed, yes they added fucking tile puzzles to the school lessons - I don't care about that and guessing by the lack of support this game is getting, lots of other people think that.
If you are a dev making a porn game you do need to add some porn to the game if you want to keep supporters happy. Yes, it's their game and they can do what they want. They spent their time making pointless side games which most people hated and their funding has never really reached a sustainable level.

tbh i feel the same, but each games and dev are different dude. i think because of summertime saga have a concluding story created a golden standard of the genre. ngl i would like that idea that these kind of game have a concluding main story or plot, and just add some dlc or continuations for the game. cause supporter will always support what they like.
also this game is only handled by 2 devs, i mean its okay if you make it as a passion project but as a demand better have other staff members to simplify or lessen the work for the main artist. Like background, minor coding, or even just drafting scenes so the main creator/artist can finish it up.
In reality, there are many supporter of porn games that would like to help the project(a good example of this is demon deals by breadman) where those who can be trust and do it for as sideline or hobby as intended for. ill leave this reply vaguely cuz predictingly someone will rebut this

The main reason I am annoyed with lack of progression with this game is because it's great. Really individual art style and look, no other game on here looks or plays like it. It's a shame when it happens because it would be great to see this game finished but I am not holding out any hope for it.

Well if you go to their discord, the only complains are the minigames, that they make it easier, now if you cant pass it that is on you, cause its a game its normal to have some challenge, cause this is a game with nsfw content and not nsfw game.

Their current lack of support is really based on lack of marketing, not very active in other forums (like f95), etc, only active on discord and patreon, so its normal to not have more support, cause they drove off this platforms too soon, so they lacking on that area.

This is their first project normal they lacking on some aspects, they learning the porn game industry, if they had a bigger budget perhaps now we could see more update frequently, more content, more progression, cause they would have hired someone by now to help.

Me, breadman and alot of other people has offered to help them, i would do it for free when i have spare time to help with pixel art, cause im also trying to make my own game and Oni knows it, but their people with honor and want to try it by themselfs and i respect that, but they know if they need we there to help.

Block pushing games and slide puzzles are not fucking fun and no one wants them in a fucking porn game.
If I need to open a separate tab to solve a slide puzzle or waste 10+ minutes being bored out of my mind I wonder if there is something wrong.

Just because you added "gameplay" it means jackshit if the gameplay is ass. If you have this giant fucking map filled with empty bullshit maybe you should go more into the adventure game route instead of boring tedium, plus the sex scenes come out of nowhere sometimes so the payoff and leadup also sucks.
You play shitty gameplay for shitty rewards and the only saving grace of the game is the art and style

If you cant pass a simple minigames that is on you, if i can without any problem and without any help so do you, you simply got used to the many games around that give you the content straight foward with a press of a button, and few minutes after you play those games you probably will complain that the content was short, if you ever played big jpn porn game titles you would understand that porn games are not to be 99% porn 1% gameplay, cause its is suppose to be a Game with nsfw content.

They are only 2 devs, what you asking its more content, more stuff to do, give more life to the world, etc, but without understanding that requires hardwork to do that and they are 2 human beings with families so they are not working 24/7, just to meet your wishes, but i understand what you saying and i would love to have more.

But if you think the gameplay is shitty and give shitty rewards why you playing it then, cause if you do really like the game, go over to the discord and present a worth reading feedback then saying "this is shitty and that is shitty" cause that is nothing, cause they take serious the feedback so present your case, cause they will read it for sure, they take criticism.

I agree, while the new sprites and story line were good, it's ultimately the same content, and that makes it hard to be excited for new updates.

They have explained they are putting this game on hold so to speak. As they arent getting their ideal funding, Oni has decided to create another game with his co-creator that will go straight to sales, no beta/alpha, just straight to completed game which who knows how long that will take; although they say it will be a smaller game like dandy boy VRNR. So wouldnt expect any updates for a long while until they get their funding, IF they get their funding. Otherwise, this game is sort of a lost cause atleast for now. Maybe someone will pick it up if it gets abandoned.

If that's true, then I don't think there will even be another update because people are tired of paying for re-works. If he keeps this up, then he could be compared to Dr. Bones and his love for them. The way he adds and then removes scenes (Halloween party) is certainly comparable.

I hate discord and my hatred isn't even with the output of the game, it's their continuous effort in making the game worse with reworks and shit updates. I backed the game way back and fucking stopped when it became apparent that they have no idea what the fuck they are doing.

I want the game to be good but I don't think it will considering they don't even understand what's wrong with the game
This quote of them on patreon says a lot
"know I've been radio silent lately (what else is new?) but luckily that doesn't mean that nothing has been done. I'm sure that all of you who love our work will love the other game as well, especially those who thought that Dandy was "a bit too difficult" for them. But more on that project when I've made up my mind on how I want to go with all that"

The game isn't difficult it's fucking annoying and grindy, fuck take the Halloween Quest, what you didn't enjoy scarping the edge of every item on the entire map because you missed one candy. People like to overcome challenges, but people will fuck off if the difficulty of the challenge is from tedium and bullshit

We're here to fap, not play games. If the latter is what we wanted, we'd play a REAL game instead of this.

What are you talking about? If you want to fap, watch a porn, you play a porn game so it represents both sides... u wouldn't call it game without game elements now would you?

People acting like they're not jerking like pervs to this game. But c'mon, if we wanted to play a game, there are MUCH better games than this.

That means it's fucking dead. Might as well just slap the Abandoned tag on the thread now.

Nah, there was an update on patreon a few days ago.
Seems there will atleast be a next update but who knows how long shit will take.
I also got a feeling the game will never be finished, seeing how slow things have gotten, but I think you're being a bit too quick there with the abandoned thing.

Use this code:blacklotus to unlock DX is not for new content is for cheats, and when minigames will appear it will give u the chance to either cheat (u dont play it) or u play the minigame, aswell Dx cheat has couple features when u open menu (inventory) go left and u will see the features of the cheats.


If i remember they made some changes with the game so older save version's wont work, but since u have the cheats now u can pretty much skip the grind and minigames which makes easier to get our progress back.

Where do i use the code to cheat?

 

[exirock]

Where do i use the code to cheat?

you got to settings/options, and should something saying DX/code or Cheats, dont recall, what version of the game you using?

 

[TwoHeavens]

any way to skip the puzzles?

 

[icepalyor]

This game can be played with only one hand ?

Fantastic. There are only 2 devs, but how about, and hear me out in this one:
How about, instead of adding shitty minigames like the sokoban ripoff (which yes, its not impossible, but its got a ton of levels and the levels ain't fucking around, and the physics and perspective make it play like ABSOLUTE shit and i say this as a huge fan of the sokoban games) or a fucking shitty ass Road Fighter ripoff to be able to fuck your cousin, how about instead of all that, more porn just gets introduced?
How about instead of more minigames just make more simple easier quests that reward you with more FUCKING in a porn game?
"Only 2 devs" is no excuse for a game with annoying mechanics. Third crisis is proof of how to get it right, although that bar might be too high, the gameplay isn't too complex and there's porn everywhere if you just want to skip to it.

I definitely agree. These guys are trying so hard to get noticed for their game mechanics. But they know without the porn nobody would play the game. I think the game was great when they focused on the story and buildup to the sex. And instead of actual story buildup with the cousin and aunt, they just make you play this shitty mini game and all of a sudden they want to fuck you? c'mon, that's so lazy. I would have rather done little odd jobs with them that resulted in sexual tension and buildup.

Is that singer girl that you meet at the beach and changing room still removed from the game for some reason?
