I don't feel upset or anything but okay, porn game or not, showing respect is a good thing. It's not that big of a deal.
I only point out why Delta Zone wouldn't have latest release shared everywhere cuz dev are here, people respect them, and its cracking effort isn't worth anyone's time. All the same with other games that fell into this same category. I'm not fanboying or angry on anyone's behalf, it's my habit to get my point through with wall-o-text and all.
This isn't meant to be an anxious argument, if you feel uncomfortable by it, then let me apologize to you too. Peace ✌
If this game focused more on the pornographic side of development, you'd see people trying to crack it. Like with Operation Lovecraft (or w/e it was called before that). That one has nearly 100 animations, while this one only has 5. Fairly good ones, but still not that many. When the porn stops taking a backseat to development, people will likely feel its worth their time to crack it. But... as there hasn't been any new tentacle scenes for quite some time, I don't think people care enough about the project to crack it.
I wouldn't say the reason people aren't cracking it is because of respect of the dev. The dev has repeatedly said that F95Zone would receive the previous update, a couple months after the most recent update drops. So, when 11 drops, you would have been assured the 10 release a couple months later. But that hasn't been their typical drop cycle. So people aren't as respectful of them as you think, as they've lied about that several times now.
I'd say the reason they aren't cracking it, is because of three reasons: 1) You need a special file, that is linked to the encryption to access the full-non demo version. Each one has a specific key, so the developer would easily know who released the file. As each file is generated on a per-basis, when someone links their patreon to their discord. 2) The .pak file is encrypted itself, and they keep changing the encryption, so one release someone cracked it and now we are back to not knowing it. 3) People haven't been able to figure out the demo code even after cracking the encryption.
EDIT:
July 23, 2021 (Page 12 here) = " I will probably do a similar thing as you mentioned with the system Corta uses, probably, but maybe bit less often, Patrons want me to release free build here every 3 months. They know its going to get pirated eventually, but they don't want everyone to play what they paid for immediately. "
So, note their actual release schedule:
-> They released 08 in July 2022.
-> They released 07 in Jan 2022, but only because people cracked their encryption.
-> They released 06 in Dec 2021.
-> They released 03 in July 2021.
-> They released 02 in June 2021.
Does that look like a new build, every 3 months to you?
