Well it could also just be a generic downloadable room, I don't knowI've been playing Dreams of Desire (to fill the gap) and now I'm understanding all the references in Demon Boy. This is my favourite:

Is the same room!
Demon Boy is heavily inspired by DoD and not just the sets and scenarios, the whole landlord and tenant storyline with a magic book is a dead giveaway.
IMO Ero should've at least said something about him not going to be able to finish the update for the weekend.
Yes and no.
That's just the worst possible thing he can do though, growing radio-silent and less transparent as the missed deadlines keep piling up, he might end up abandoning alltogether out of sheer pressure from failed expectations.
He probably went radio silent because his fans would've been upset about hearing about the update not dropping, but at least they would've known about it and most would try to understand. Ero just repeats the same mistake in giving unrealistic ETA's he cannot meet.
I'd suggest he takes a couple of weeks to take things slow and put together a schedule of tasks and collecting some metrics for measuring his productivity. It'll give him a realistic outlook on what he can achieve and, if he so desired, could share with the community when he's ahead or behind on schedule. Sure this purely delays the next update but his current workflow is detrimental to himself and his community.
Me and a few others have asked him questions but he hasn't been on discord in about 2 weeks
You think he‘s making something special? It’s round 1k $ and that buys you almost nothing to go into semi-incognito mode like many patreon pages here. Considering the time he puts into this, his reward is a little bit low, to be fair, and I’d probably say that he’s running out of motivation for the project as a whole too( I don’t buy that overly ambitious crap. I’ve been on this site , supported many - have seen enough). Happens many times with ambitious projects and first-time developers. Plus to be a little bit critical it’s not a fully original story to begin with and even though he renders the images to a crisp , there are much better works out here with more reliable creators , so he must go a lot further still to prove himself. He lost ~200 Patrons last month - undeniable proof that his supporters don’t believe in him. Of course it’s his first time and I personally don’t care if this update ever gets out - it’s definitely not getting finished at this rate unless he’s making 10k and then it’s going to be a milking ride. Thats why you I don’t support any developer here who I’m not certain that is committed, because I support the project not only the next update and him living off of my 10 $. Less ambition goes a lot further the first time around. That is the point of my comment too - never gather hype over gofund me project, keep expectations low and be unforgivable to deadlines because it’s the only substantial thing that doesn’t make you regret your support (if whoever read this supports the guy). BTW I follow many pages but this, even though fairly new, is extremely active; goes to show that this mommy-kink is more contagious than Covid. Peace!!Have you noticed... that most games with high raiding... beautiful animations and characters... for some reason abandon or slow down updates... "Money rules the world" in every sense.
you mean during short pauses, when he finds time for it?He's eating donuts
Nah. This is just a dark joke about his nickname " Hiken no Ace ". Don't know if you're familiar with One Piece, but this character, Hiken No Ace, meets a Tragic Fateyou mean during short pauses, when he finds time for it?
atm, he is dedicated to finish the course held by few great lecturers such as icstor, aorrta, ttll...
cant wait to see the wonders he will do around, once he gets his degree there
in the story
well, i did miss your point there (not familiar with that character/game/comic).Nah. This is just a dark joke about his nickname " Hiken no Ace ". Don't know if you're familiar with One Piece, but this character, Hiken No Ace, meets a Tragic Fate
IMO main problem in that case is breaking promises. Seriously, he give an ETA 7 times. 7 times in this 2 month he break his word and frustrate a lot of people, who believe in his words.
