The last version of this game crash a lot, sometimes.My game crashes at the boxing scene. Any fix?
I don't know why.

I respect the backers by writing at the best I can. I am no Faulkner, I can write only a week per month (I am definitely not the main writer of the game), so my best may not be that good, but it's still my best and it costs me A LOT of effort (English not being my first language). I have no intention of stalling the game, I used to be a normal patron myself and just happened to love the game so much that I offered my modest contribution, and mrdots accepted. I have no intention to turn dmd into a scam, I am emotionally into the game and would genuinely suffer in seeing it turn into shit. Sure the game might still turn into shit, but that would happen because the devs are not skilled enough, not because they are ill-intentioned.On this forum, many of us have discussed DMD using logic/intuition to discern the unfolding plots. These discussions are moot because the dev-team refuses to respect the players enough to offer a clear game-design (this ploy effectively prolongs the game rather than leading to completion).
Only a week before update 0.12, I coaxed the DMD writer to finally reveal the locale of the story was "out there". As in non-earthly. Why was this not revealed earlier? Because then pesky details (geography, climate, education system, human body hair, etc.) could be considered inconsequential. Note the "official" reason was to give an all-inclusive setting for players (the setting, the dialog is actually USA all the way, probably because Patreon pledges are paid in American funds).
It's all an elaborate but obvious stall. The dev-team can't be trusted. The money being made from gullible patrons has negated all ideas of true story progress for DMD. They have hinted that the updates so far are only parts of "Chapter1" with plans for at least a Chapter 3. Yeah, good luck with that!
Go back and read the first handful of pages in this thread. There was widespread agreement that this game-type NEVER results in a complete game. More than likely, scams from the get-go...
I take this opportunity to officially thank you and all the devs for the great piece of work you have been creating with this game. I can understand that some people don't like, it, but I definitely cannot understand why they keep playing and/or complaining with every new version. I think that this is also totally unfair when you see the quality of this new release in terms of visual and writing. I am not telling here that you cannot say anything if you disliked it, I just think that some comments are just offensive and non-constructive. That you like it or not, you have to respect the work that has been done and if you don't like it, just go ahead and create the piece of art you think everyone will love.I respect the backers by writing at the best I can. I am no Faulkner, I can write only a week per month (I am definitely not the main writer of the game), so my best may not be that good, but it's still my best and it costs me A LOT of effort (English not being my first language).

As for your specific allegations: the general outline of the story was planned long ago and it seemed only natural to divide it into chapters; the "out-thereness" of dmd seems to be troubling ONLY YOU among thousands of players, so if I were in you I would start questioning my own cognitive processes instead of thinking that all the others are idiots: "out there" doesn't mean in another earth, it means that it is in a costitutively UNSPECIFIED place part of this earth (and the absence of hair is little more than an in-game joke).
If I'll have time and won't get the feeling that our work, defective as it may be, is treated like less than shit (nobody who is at least trying to do something good deserves it), I'll be willing to discuss the issue of daughter's naivety on this forum in the future. At the moment, I do get the feeling that some people on this board are just puking their bitterness over the game, in a burst of outrage that I frankly cannot fully comprehend and that, personally speaking, I don't think to deserve (and I have a pretty low opinion of my work in general). Being puked on is not a good experience, and I am starting to undesrtand why so many creators avoid fan (?) communities on the internet.
I have always disliked the use of the word "hater", it seemed a low effort strategy to defuse criticism, but now that I am on the other side, I must admit that sometimes I feel like it's an appropiate word to describe some dynamics. I mean, dmd is what you see, for good and for bad. So seriously, if you are so disgusted with it, why in the world are you still playing it? If I were in you and this game annoyed me so much I would just try to avoid it. Care to explain this to me? Are you so thoroughly outraged by the fact that other people don't understand how shitty the whole project is that you took upon yourself to convince them? Seems like an awful lot of effort.
For what it's worth, Thank you for contributing to a game so many of us clearly enjoy(even if we don't agree 100% with the Dev's decision making)..I respect the backers by writing at the best I can.

Other than the basic operation of a free market this isn't particularly libertarian lol. It's just a simple fact that many of the people who support this game and play this game are happy with the product. If one person isn't, that doesn't make everyone else a sucker, it means it's not for that one person and that's okay. It takes an extremely self-absorbed person to assume that if they don't like something, it's a scam and if others do like it, they're gullible idiots.I don't know.... I just can't buy this line of reasoning. Pardon me for getting all libertarian/Randian here, but at this point I just don't see how someone possibly can be scammed by supporting these folks on Patreon. Yes, it is possible for people to get scammed on Patreon, but at this point we have a pretty good idea what the product is, and the creators have been quite consistent given the nature of the creation process. Sure, this is a particularly apt (and I think very purposefully so) project for that particular revenue platform, but if someone feels the satisfied enough to contribute to the creators then that's a fair and equitable transaction. The game designer(s) put out their work in progress, the contributors decide whether their personal satisfaction has a monetary value and they put up that amount. Wiz-Bang! Free market working it's free markety goodness. In the long run or the short run (though this has every appearance of going for the long run) the project may fumble or the creators go their merry way, but everyone knows that (or should know that) going into the deal. They say half of restaurants fail in the first couple of years, any number of startups are now dust in the wind, the world has more failures than successes, and it's really just a matter of personal character which of those you want to focus on and use as a basis of your own decision making. However, I don't think your characterization of patrons as "gullible" says much--if anything--about those contributors so much as your own cynical and, in my opinion, rather mistaken impressions of the nature of this particular economic model.
I'm sorry but if there is no official build for the game it's hard.Can someone please give me the new update for APK for Android
See here... how to update from v11 >> V12. i downloaded patch update. but game still V11. thank you
I think Cupid night was the best TBH.Well, for me it was an incredible update, one of the best, or the best. It's long, has romance, sexual content, lots of images... I don't know, I guess that the one who like this game since beginning this update will love it, and who has criticized from beginning will continue to do. I have enjoyed it very much, very very much!
That was the first long scene I wrote for the game! So many memories. I was in the UK visiting my girlfriend (official reason: research at the local university libraray), she was supportive but a bit annoyed since I spent my nights at the computer instead than on the couch with her, and I myself was not sure the scene would have been accepted in the game, since its mechanics were so different form everything before. ^^ My personal favourite (among the ones I wrote, that is) is the koko one though - I think it feels believable and that was no easy feat, considering that she is a celebrity in the dmd universe and socializing with commoners might have easily felt contrived.I think Cupid night was the best TBH.
