Ren'Py Abandoned Defective Sexbot Chop Shop [v0.4.1] [Radnor]

[DanLong]

Ok, guys, situation update.

My plan was to release v0.5 in August, but obviously things are not going as planned.

Tried cutting down todo list, tried rescheduling stuff, considered finding helpers. Unfortunately, it just not working. I'm getting swarmed with IRL stuff, had to chop side projects and even a few lesser paid gigs, DSCS was pretty much the last pet project I tried/hoped to keep alive.
All things considered, I have decided to officially drop it. If you are supporting the game with Patreon/SubscribeStar, please unsubscribe before September. Really appreciate your support, guys, sorry for my inability to deliver as planned, 20's keep screwing things up.
If/when my issues are resolved, I may return to the idea with enough time and resources to remake the game from scratch. There were lots of ideas I really liked but not implemented. Maybe DSCS reincarnation will have better luck.

Game links and sources will stay available. If you want to pick it up and continue development or make a fork with a different story or gameplay, feel free to do so, can change the game name and links too, just mention the original somewhere.

Again, sorry for leaving the game unfinished, and thank you for your feedback and support!

You must be the most honorable creator on here! Most of them just ghost or leave all the followers waiting for months with nothing. I do hope that you come back to it sometime. I would also love to see what was planned for 0.5

Best of luck and hope to see more of you in the future!!!

Really sad to see this one go, it had so much potential.

Keep pluggin' away at it. Like the old joke, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time."

I was looking at your code and it is very nice and clean! Just not many comments to guide someone. If you could maybe send me a general idea of what direction you were planning to go with this, I want to expand it

That's too bad, I was honestly super into this game and its system. I hope things get better for you man, what you already provided is already tonnes of fun.

Thank you, guys

I was looking at your code and it is very nice and clean! Just not many comments to guide someone. If you could maybe send me a general idea of what direction you were planning to go with this, I want to expand it

General direction was to make cyberpunk-themed world from bot mechanic's pov. Meaning more gameplay focus on bot repair/training and more story focus on corporations, gangs, cults and exploration of old ethics in new world. Less rails, more sandbox i guess.
If you want to expand it, feel free to do as you see fit. As long as it is marked as derivative work or change name, i wouldn't mind any changes, after all mods were added to allow exactly this, expanding game world.

This was one of the games I was most looking forward to. I hope to see you able to develop it again someday! If not, best of luck in life

Announcement: As Radnor has given basically a carte blanche, a small group has formed that is planning to continue DSCS.

We cannot and do not want to promise anything at the moment, but if somehow possible we'd like to prevent this little gem from disappearing.

If someone wants to participate or has even started something like this on their own and prefers to work with others, feel free to contact me.

Depressing outcome, not optimistic about any followup attempts as nobody will be matching the passion and vision of the auteur. Oh well.

Thanks for the ping, Gofile delete the file after some time if it's not downloaded at all and i don't have the ressource yet to get the upgrade, will re-upload them

Please reup again as all of your mods seem gone now. Try a different site like mega please.

Maybe. At least worth a try.

Appreciate your devotion and motivation! Best of luck with your efforts and look forward to seeing the fruits of your labor.

I hope this works out, as I just discovered this game, and definitely see the potential.

We are currently working on ideas and basics. Might take a while but it is a work in progress

Hi Mineride! is it ok if we use some of your mods in a new variant of DSCS?

 

[mineride]

Hi Mineride! is it ok if we use some of your mods in a new variant of DSCS?

it was already the last one when i test my mods back in June so yes. except if a new mods do weird things, it should work perfectly

What will you do in futur? will you expand the lore? or just increase the game mechanics? I'm interested if you need individuals for the lore as my mods is already do a little of that.

Great! Umm, if you want anything specific, I'd say the game's mechanics are solid, and basically should be left untouched, it's an issue of content, and an odd lack of porn in a porn game. Good luck!

 

[YaBoiDeath]

A part of me hopes and feels like someone will revive this game, much like Disgruntler picked up Venus' Club and is helping keep the game up and running
