Yeah. I mean, there are beta testers and stuff like that, but just one guy does the rendering, coding and writing. And has a real job and life, too.
He deserves every penny he gets on Patreon. Maybe one day if its his passion he will be able to quit the other job and just make games.

Heh. He'll need to pick up a few more patrons than he's got now. Surprising he doesn't have more, considering the quality of the game, but it's difficult to figure out why some games earn "X" and some earn "Y".

In circumstances like this I hope people will be patient and understanding between upgrades. Wishing him all the best at whatever he does.

Just found out about this game so got few Qs.

I assume we can use saves from current version in the future versions without problems, correct?
Does anyone have latest v0.11.1 guide?
Also when is the next update coming... i read its final or something like that?!

Should i try the game now or wait for this final update... that is if its coming soon like a month or so?

Thanks!

@FAPmaster369 your current saves will work on each release. That was something i made sure worked in the early days. Worse case you may have to roll back with an autosave to your last spot. Because of the scope and different paths available in the final release you may wanna do a few playthroughs to have a few different saves at the end since there will be a ton of content but all broken up into these paths. Because one path i think only @rodneyeatme will like because its dark cold and bittersweet, it being my true noir ending. The rest should make everyone else happy lol.

The story ending won't be so bad if they make another game. They are too good of creators to just make one. I think they might already have plans for another one. But I hope they don't forget what made this game so great. I've played some great games before and their next game wouldn't hold a candle to the first. Because they didn't realize what made the other one so great.
Honest question Wildt. What is it in DA that made it great for you? My focus next time is again on an interesting story with fleshed out characters.

I'm not wildt, nor do I intend to speak for him, but there are an abundance of things that made DA one of the greatest games on this forum -- I personally think it's the best.

First off, we have the characters and artwork. Not only are the models incredibly designed and detailed, but they all also have their own unique stories and backgrounds: the tragic story of Stella, the damaged history of Mido, the redemption? arc of Christina, the hooker with a heart of gold trope come to life in Carli. The fact that these vignettes allow us to see the characters beyond images enhances the overall product, and the fact these vignettes are different from one another adds a certain shade of identity to each woman.

Secondly, the customization/paths element of the game was really important to me. Not only were we able to choose different approaches in our relationships (like the rougher, BDSM route with Mido versus the softer, almost love route with her), we also were able to change our petname in each relationship. You could have Judy call you Daddy, and then have Carli call you Lover -- different girl, different role. Again, this served to add another dimension of identity to each character, and the CG models transformed into legitimate characters. The fact that there are several paths in the game gives it replayability and ensures that there is at least something for each player. In addition to this, I also liked the text in the game. It's often difficult to write out dirty talk without it sounding embarrassing or silly, but I felt that DA was able to combine images with dirty talk almost seamlessly.

All these distinct factors allowed DA to rise above all others on this forum, and allow it to serve as a testament to what occurs when a developer pours an incredible amount of effort, dedication, heart, and skill into a project.

just have one beef with this game no perfect end (True Harem end) don't like the fact that my 3 favs bite it atleast 1 does from every route there needs to be a route were everyone survives even if its a corrupt ending maybe use Kira as a way to get them before the fight like a surprise attack break her and turn her against her old master and you take over idk just pisses me off that it takes so much to build there scores and lust up for them to just bite it or hell give you the option to deal with the crazy bitch when u go to the apartment the first time instead of just running and for fuck sacks he is a PI dont wait till the end of the game to give him a gun these are all things that could create a perfect ending

Well done ! I Agree with you 100%. Like I said before its a complete game. I don't play games to fap. There is real porn out there for that or better yet real sex. A great game like a great movie pulls you into it .At the end it leaves you satisfied but yet sad because it ended.

You know maybe that is the answer to keep your next game as good as the first. Asking what it is that made your game great to them. Instead of what they would like to see in the next one. badnboujee answered that alot better than I ever could.

Then hopefully I am on the right track. The "pet" names was something I really liked as well. Plus all the varied characters are just that. Very different personalities and backstories. Atmosphere is a big thing for me too. It won't be as dark and as oppressive as DA, but i will have that familiar noir look to it because I love that style so much.

DA was first an adult game then a porn game. This will be no different. Again you could take out the sex and hopefully it will be an enjoyable story, of course as they say, sex makes everything better.

I'm honestly looking forward to the new game after watching that excellent Cyberpunk preview I'm hoping for an similiar style.

@Philly_Games I love your game because it has that rich noir atmosphere that i kinda feel has been lost over time. Whenever I play it , it gives me that old vibe that I used to get from movies like the Maltese Falcon or even Chinatown.
I feel like the game would still be enjoyable if you made a SFW version of it.
Have you tried putting it on steam?

A little Halloween treat (or is it trick?) from our favorite dev...



Unlocked



"Only pain and suffering will make you realize who you are."
Happy Halloween guys!

If you know where this is from I'm sorry for scaring your again.

For those that don't. A little horrific Japanese movie called Audition.

If you are staying in maybe its something to watch. Or, for a more light hearted fair, check out Tucker and Dale vs Evil. If you are going out, have fun. Don't get too crazy. Or do, that's fine :p
