VN Ren'Py Abandoned Dual Family [v1.22.1ce] [Gumdrop Games]

[Aristos]

As we all know in between selling hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of drugs and organziing groups of people to launder money its common to actually write out and render images of smut. Hes a shitty dev profiting off of the sunk cost fallacy and the fact that most other porn games are honestly pretty shit. It doesnt need to be more complicated than that.

Is he actually writing anything? What has he rendered in the past 2 years? There you have it

Nah, I was just trolling with that money laundering thing. Unfortunately I'm aware that there can be 1000 simplet..., I mean naive people still paying to support this "artist".

It is quite fascinating... In 4-ish days I'am "around the internet" for 15 years (yes, I'am that fucking old!) and I dare to say, I've seen literally everything that there is, was and will be and yet, some things never change (with the exception of war, because war never changes) and to confirm an old statement of mine: The internet is a distorted mirror of the real world. Or maybe the real world is a distorted mirror of the internet, as people tend to show their real self here... You get my point...

Just open a newspaper and look how many people get screwed over every day by some ponzi scheme, nigerian prince, investmet banker or whatever... I mean, capitalism itself is more or less "screwing" people out of their money (viewing the lowest common denominator - produce as cheap as possible, sell as expensive as possible ect.)... Anyway...

His patreons tell us two things:
First: Most people have way more money than they actually deserve (looking at how care- and brainless they "spend" it).
Second: Most people are just as dumb as a loaf of bread. If you tell them, in heaven is carnival they ask you where the ladder is.

I wonder what happened to the 3 principles to have a good life?
1. Never lend out money, cars or cameras.
2. Never "share" your partner.
3. Never ever pre-order unfinished shit.

Most people here are amazed that so many Patrons still fund this Gumdrop guy... BUT I am mostly amazed that some people even reply to Joshua Tree's posts

This is so shocking

Speak for yourself, I muted him immediately after his failure to articulate a concise argument against mine. His refusal to acknowledge when he'd loss and his obvious agenda that serves a moot purpose save to confirm his own "intellectual prowess" also played a part. It didn't take much for me to garner that it was a complete waist of time speaking to such an arrogant fool; let alone here was he has to say. Its Been smooth sailing lurking for the lulz ever since.

It's the modern take on "burn the witch". He must be laundering money. Must be drug sales, in between doing child erotica, and god knows what else.

Nope. Not a witch hunt. If you were *actually* paying attention, what people are talking about is how on earth he's still pulling in 9K a month for basically just existing. The conversation then turned to what he could be doing with that money as he's beyond obviously not working on a game, and if he could be involved in either Fraud or just be a flat out scam artist.

So, to sum up. Not a witch hunt. Just a shit ton of people beyond fed up with the scammers bullshit, and the people that defend said scumbag. As to why people defend him? Well, as far as I can make out, it's either out of a need to stir up shit, to troll people, or because they actually believe he's hard at work.

If you had gone out in public, with your full name, warts and all, and pointed at GD and said he was doing all these things. Guess what you would put yourself open against? Dare any of you make such claims in public that can lead back to your actual persona in real life? How about make a nice youtube video, make it public, throw your face into the screen and sign with your name, and throw charges at him, you want to expose him right? Or is the confined space of this forum bubble the extent of bravery? None of you taken your crusade over to steam discussions? or carried out the great "review bombing"? What's the matter? afraid it would impact your steam accounts?

One thing is to actually go after someone for not being truthful, being deceiving etc when they actually are. And to claim criminal activities without any actual proof.

Just because you don't understand why people toss money at something you deem futile, pointless and what not. Doesn't keep people from do it. It's just life, people do it all the fucking time. So yeah I call it "witch hunt" when people going over board with accusations and unproven claims, when the truth alone is enough. One person's bullshit doesn't excuse another person's bullshit.

If your extent of marvel is to wonder why someone on Patreon cash in 9k on an unfinished adult game that had updates delayed over and over. You probably shouldn't open your door and look outside in the real world.

This thread is on a whole different level than all the other threads in this forum. I won't go on to say why because I don't want to get reported. But damn do I love to check in here every few months. If there's one thing you can count on every day, it's the daytime, the night time and the lack of a Dual Family update.

Ya know...I saw someone mention they blocked you. And I see why. A few things your rant left out. To start, It's called an opinion. And I'm allowed to have one whether you like it or not. Try not to get to obviously butthurt over what is (and I'm basing my guess according to you absolutely crawling up my ass) likely your favorite developer getting called out as a scammer on game sites. It's going to happen. Especially after the nonsense said developer has pulled these last years.

As to actually going on steam or the GD website forum, (and this hails back to that whole paying attention thing) you would see that everyone that actively complains or asks uncomfortable questions either gets shouted down by people like you, or just get banned out right.

As to claiming criminal activity, I most certainly didn't. I simply asked whether or not promising to supply a product, receiving payment for said product, and then disengaging on delivery of said promised product constitutes as fraud.

And finally, to the public face thing? Put your money were your colossal mouth is. Also, funny enough, even though you seem to have either eaten or mated with a thesaurus, your grammar is still a solid fail. What's that old saying about dog's that bark the loudest? Anyway, have fun on my block list. I'm more than sure your used to them in general by now.

Pretty sure update is out soon. No way he delays again

But why the delay... we will never know.

 

[MykeRosy]

Scamdrop just ask by an irate patron of his and saying "when the update come" and scamdrop answer, the two animation ARE NOT YET RENDERED and its on initial stage right now. But as for consolation he saying hes working on act 2 but the patron not buying on that and say just focus on finishing act1.

Milking people left and right. Abandon tag to this scammer.

He is already inventing excuses for "act 2" (the ambiguous bullshit he spewed that could be understood as a rework) so it makes sense he now claims to be working on it. Since he already laid all the blame for "act 1" on some other dude he is covering his own ass now. Now when confronted about "act 1" he can blame the animator, and when confronted about "act 2" he can blame the additional work he is supposed to be doing. In reality, no work is being done, as the evidence I showed in my previous posts makes clear. Since his patrons are dumb as a rock, who keep swallowing cropped, duplicate and blurred old images as supposed "previews", they believe all the lies about all the work he claims to be doing, even when no actual evidence is ever shown.

Also, it's very curious how a commissioned animator is so bad at his work: first the mediocre cropped viewport animations, now these delays that would put him out of business quickly. Quite suspicious to say the least.

What people should notice is that even his excuse has an obvious hole: the animator can animate all the stuff relatively quickly (assuming he is real and knows what he is doing), and then give the scenes to gumdrop so he can render them on his supposed 10 gpus. There is no reason to expect long delays from an animator, as animation data is portable. An animator shouldn't be rendering stuff when you claim to have 10 gpus that could do it much, much faster. How come nobody confronted him about this obvious hole in his story?

I don't see this scammer even bothering with doing any work whatsoever anymore. He is shamelessly 100% scamming now.

 

[Deleted member 509941]

and here we are waiting for this good novel but nothing still.... comes ...to ... a ... close. why this discuss area is up again? anyone care... 1,2,3... CHAD! ->

 

[madman11122]

I seriously doubt scumdrop is laundering money. He's just a simi-clever con man that discovered he can string people along with minimum effort and still get paid. This thing keeps getting delayed because people still pay, at this point there is no amount of content he can release to justify the time delay. He has to keep his scam going as long as possible for maximum profit and delay is the name of the game at this point because people are still willing to pledge.

Agreed. You laid out a fair bit of it, and madman11122 slammed it home. There really is nothing he can do and no content he can release to make up for the utter incompetence and total lack of professionalism at this point. If, and I do mean IF, he should ever complete the game (and lets face it, that's about as likely as magic being real at this point) how on earth could he even begin to justify charging money for it? To all of us that actually paid into this scammer and never saw a damn thing for what we gave? And we would have to pay again? Hell no.
