Yeah, they said they will abandon games that don't make money right away, kind of a catch-22; if you keep canceling because no one invests right away, people will wait to see if the game is popular before investing but no one invests because they assume it is going to be canceled...

Used to watch Hercules and Xena, i'd so bury my face between Aphrodite's thighs.
Kind of a rotating door of games now though.
Players are looking for constancy before backing and the more games get abandoned the less likely people are to back. Abandon 1 or 2 games and you will struggle to bring in paying players but it's possible, abandon 3, 4 or even 5 games and you pretty much took a rocket launcher to your foot and blew the bitch off, getting anyone to part with money now is next to impossible.

Yeah, I liked that game, I actually pledged to her Patreon for that game, and was disappointed and bailed when she cancelled that to pursue an RPGM game. I haven't followed the patreon, but I guess the RPGM game didn't pan out either.
Yea, but she often cheated on him and had like 10 other partners, one being Ares.

This developer is one of the main reasons why I don't support games on patreon, was into 2 of the games that they abandoned and cancelled... I can hardly work up the motivation to shift through another unfinished product using the same assets that probably won't survive a year.
The games always show promise at least?

It's in Ren'py, the engine designed for visual novels with Blooming Love being a visual novel.
I normally try to bite my tongue, at least as respect from one dev to another, but it's getting really tough to keep quite. I tried to not say much when one of their previous games was getting abandoned due to BS reasons. But hey, my mindset was to not be calling anyone out and just let them do whatever it is they want to do.
But your post here is exactly the reason why this shady behavior needs to be called out. There's no way to sugarcoat it when someone is abandoning a game every two months. They end up burning their Patrons who end up feeling that sting for a long time and end up not supporting anyone again. Cant even blame them for that either. Shady dev practices hurt the entire community in the long run.
Mods, I apologize if this comment is too off-topic and needs to be removed.

Because it's a piracy site not an advertisement agency.
It's not for the devs, it's for people to download should they choose to.

I know Bright Sun has a troubled past, but for once Im going to be optimistic instead of my usual brand of pessimism

Well, I don't think she (if I understood her sex correctly) likes to abandon her games. She has to eat and pay rent and other stuff. And she is trying to find a strategy to earn some money doing something she likes to do. I can't blame her.
I mean, doing things for passion and all is nice, but at the end of the day, when your landlord comes asking you for a rent, if you've not the money to pay, you might end up being the RL protagonist of one of those VN with blackmail and money involved. And it doesn't sound so cool to me.
Moreover she is honest about this (I mean, she could just start a new patreon account with another nickname, at this point). About the game, gonna give this a try, since the only actual review says nice things about it.
Good luck to the dev, in any case.

If you go on their Patreon page, they posted that Sexual Duty got flagged for takedown by Patreon, and they didn't know why, so they decided to abandon it and go with an older project instead. I don't like how many games Bright Sun has abandoned either, but this last one at least seems to be for a good reason, and they've said they'd like to keep updating sexual duty elsewhere. But it looks like the damage has been done and they've lost quite a few patrons.
Daughter of Hephaestus? Wait a minute...
Better keep her away from the box.
