Was sad reading the last page about the potential route this game might go down.. Changing the art style to models over blurred backgrounds is such a extreme compromise that I personally think its best letting the game stay dead.

The creator ought to do something with the rights of this game. As in letting someone else take over. There are a few games that need this as well. Hell, I would take a crack at learning how to do everything to take over this one. It's too good to be abandoned and needs to be finished. I'm pretty good when it comes to coming up with a story and writing it. I've always been good with wordplay and stories.

That is not the issue
He has story and can keep working story but he is away from home and his render box

So I'm only half sold on the approach. But she does want to do animations for the sex scenes so that is a plus.
Animations should be approached only if all the rest is perfect, because they take a huge amount of development time and add nothing to the story. A very good VN can avoid animations but it cannot avoid a good art. That blurred image looks really unpleasant, in my opinion. But obviously if you have no other choice you have to take a decision.

Sad to see this one abandoned, have to admit I didn't have much hope for it with the long development cycle and splitting of the content. Regardless the dev is talented and I hope brushes himself off and moves onto something a tad bit less ambitious.

I just finished playing this(well, one path of it anyway) even though I knew it was abandoned. Definitely, on the shame it wasn't finished list.

Sucks that we will never get to see what happens next with Cassie and Amanda :cry: Would be nice if Roman at least released some of the content that he was working on the last 1.5 years, even if unfinished

The static backgrounds (blurry or not) is certainly a huge downgrade, but there are great games that use a similar approach (Love of Magic being one). This is essentially the "character sprite" concept. The thing is, these floating sprites are ok for regular dialogues and what not, but the sex scenes need to be fully rendered.

Think about it. The floating sprites thing is essentially using the 2DCG VN style with 3D models. 2DCG games use the character sprite in normal dialogues but they pretty much always have full CGs for the scenes. This is where the compromise has to be made. If she can commit to fully rendering at least the sex scenes, I think it could work out.

In all honesty, the writing was the main selling point anyways. As long as the writing stays the same quality, there will be people waiting to play it regardless of what happens to the art direction.

--------------------

Let me stir the pot a bit on the way out. It's always amusing how people interpret the abandoned tag. As if F95zone putting the tag on a thread somehow makes the game officially dead or something lol. As if the status of the game is somehow in a different state than what it was prior to getting the tag. As if the more than a year with no updates didn't signify clear development issues prior to getting the abandoned tag. As if they are finally justified in urging others to stop spending their money because F95zone said it's abandoned. It's pretty funny.

FYI, games get the abandoned tag for 3 reasons. Dev said it's abandoned, 6(?) months of radio silence, or 18(?) months of no update. This game hit that last criteria and got the tag.

hi
Do you need to download both of the following photos? Are they a continuation of each other?
Or if they are not continued, what are they? it is vague
If you would have read under the spoiler you would have seen this.
Changelog:
v2.0.0
- Cassie Chapter 03
  • Version 2.0.0 picks up where Version 1.1.5 Ends.
  • If you have not played v1.1.5 Below, it is recommended you do so first.
  • Saves from v1.1.5 do not work with v2.0.0.
  • There is an option to "replicate your save" from v1.1.5 when you start a new game so you may continue where you left off in the previous version.
v1.1.5
Please for now on use the "Thumb" options for pictures.
