Ren'Py Abandoned Deviant Anomalies [v0.9.5] [MoolahMilk]

I suspect the negativity got to him. The best chances for a turnaround would be some people joining his Discord to wish him well and hope he comes back to continue the game because we enjoy it. That won't happen of course, but he's a person like anyone, and pressure to perform can get to anyone.

nah, the best chance for a turnaround is his patreon money drying up. trust me, hes got enough white knights in his discord. he doesnt communicate with them either.

If negativity killed his enthusiasm for the game's development, he should avoid places where it's hitting him, if possible.

Unfortunately for him, the Discord he created for his users isn't really something he can or should avoid.

It's possible that some tragedy hit him, and that's why he broke off communication completely. It has happened with some devs. And, it's certainly possible that, whatever the reason for the communications break, embarrassment is preventing him from admitting where things stand.

At this point, the best way to clear the negativity would be to:

1. Post some message as to the current state of affairs.
2. Stop charges on Patreon if he is not currently working on the game, or at least fulfilling any special content promised to Patreons.
3. If possible, if he does still plan on working on the game, give an estimate on when he thinks he'll get back to it. If he's not taking people's money, and communicates, even an indefinite hold will probably be acceptable to fans. Given his recent history with releases, his mantra should be underpromise, overdrive.

However, it's unlikely this advice will ever reach him, and it would not be surprising if he ignored it even if it did, somehow.

is this game still updating? I'm really looking forward to this

 

[Anmuxi]

This developer has been doing this for a long time now, it's either false promises or no news at all, only when his patreon decreases tremendously and his patreon dries up, he shows up and then plays pitifully for sympathy and forgiveness from his patreon, and after that it's just the same mistake again, this developer is not a first time offender, he's done this many times before, mind you! Deviant Anomalies started in 2020, it's been over 3 years now and how many times has the developer updated it? He doesn't care about his game at all, he's just using DA's popularity to scam for sponsorship money, and that's all he cares about, his sponsorship money.

 

[Inex33]

And even if a miracle happens and the dev comes back. You’d just get content on some random new npc.

That's been an ongoing debate here in the forums. The dev has gone completely silent for the past few months, which is why the game has been tagged as abandoned.

 

[Anmuxi]

DA is a great game, but the developer of DA is terrible at this, and it's touchingly disappointing that he cheats his patrons over and over again.

 

[guangl5]

WTF

 

[JuanPC]

Abandoned?

 

[drifter139]

Abandoned?

sadly it would seem so. but I have seen 1 or 2 games that were abandoned come back so we can only hope that happens for this game

 

[jaredh72]

I feel conflicted as I type this. On the one hand, I realize Patreon is a creator's patron site and nothing is actually promised, and all of the money donated is just that, donations in hopes that the developer can use it to fund their projects and at the end of the day that may or may not happen. On the other hand however, there should be some sort of system that holds creators like this accountable. I remember at one time when I was subbing to him on Patreon that he was bringing in about $3000 a month at least just from Patreon. As of right now, it appears he has 1332 people subbing to him. This man fell off the map without so much as a "see ya." When he was uploading, it was very spread out at best and we wouldn't hear from him for months until we'd randomly get an update talking about how "speed was his energy" and then the following month or so, we would get an update. Instead of admitting that he had prematurely blew his load with all the characters he introduced and couldn't think of anything else, he just decided to get pissy with everyone and leave while still taking everyone's money. I realize this site doesn't make him any money but one would think that Patreon would have the same guidelines in effect as F95zone. He is still raking in money on Patreon and the last post from him was regarding another crossover promotion for "Ripples" back in March 2023. Version 1.0 still has not been released and this actually was promised by the end of 2022. When it gets to this point Patreon should mark it as abandoned and cut off the funding for the project.

Thank you for enduring my rant.

Really, Patreon should have some set time period of no update or communication whatsoever before the pledges all get switched off of the monthly payments to another type. For example, while one creator I still subscribe to is painfully slow, we only get charged when he makes a major game update (you can set a limit to the number of times each month). What exactly that constitutes, I don't know, but I do know that I have only been charged maybe once or twice in the past year or so when they finally released a new build. Unfortunately, Patreon won't do something like that. They still get a cut of the monthly pledges whether the creator makes posts/updates multiple times a week or they have been silent for over a year. Whether the patrons are getting scammed/screwed over means nothing to them as long as they still profit from getting a cut of the pledges.

 

[shaqneistat]

Okay this game is officially tagged abandoned. Fair since there's no sign of anything on other platform such as his Patreon.

I don't know... I believe he would give us any info and shit since he did try to make the game. God forbid... but he might actually be "gone" fr. Maybe I'm overthinking it, idk.

 

[Jazzzzz]

bruh such a nice game dont abandon it zzz

I used to tell you all this is a money grab and run scam since the version 6 of the "game", but everyone started to gang up on me. Now, I have the last laugh so HAHA!

Dude, you're very sober.
The developer was really making a good game initially, but after 0.5, Deviant Anomalies was growing in popularity in the face of a rapidly increasing number of sponsors, and after 0.5, the developer was just using DA's popularity to get a lot of sponsorship money for the unearned benefits he felt.

 

[Anmuxi]

As it turns out, the developer doesn't care about DA as a game. DA has been labeled as "abandoned" for over two months, but the developer has kept quiet and is just trying to capitalize on DA's popularity to get a lot of sponsorship money.

You're assuming the dev is even aware of the game's status here, much less that he'd care.

Just scroll back to last time when he came here and went berserk by attacking all the criticism he got here. A person who doesn't care would not come here and write two pages worth of essays to try and tell people "I don't care".

And how long ago was that?
