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

[xoxo]

- Set volume to max, slow down play-speed to about 70%, and start playing to "enjoy";

Those sentences may seems vague and random at first, but after some replay a "speech" as such should emerge:

If this is true, than this guy is for sure Gumdrop's fake account. No way some random dude would find this

I appreciate the guy making art out of his scam, and after so much time his patrons kind of deserve it for being so stupid, but he's still a piece of shit for doing it.

And this topic is hilarious, that's why I pay for my internet

It would've been nice if dual family was actually finished but I have to admit that this is by far the most interesting and unique way it could have ended. I didn't really give a shit after the years of no updates but now I'm invested and waiting for Feb 26 so maybe he succeeded in a way lol

Good riddance...

To the mods please keep this game title as abandoned..

they will unless he actually releases new content as gamewise.

all in this thread know that it won't happen.

Moders banned him if I'm not mistaken. He can create fake account however.

yes and why he was banned was due fake accounts praising this piece of shit called game.

492.8MB after three F**cking years...What a Ja**ass.

ya know, that doesn't mean anything..

there are some games that are pretty small in content (even ren'py VN) and yet have lots of gameplay and fun.

do never base yourself only on size for a game, you coud be more dissapointed than pleased.

(some games come out 3Gb size in 0.1 alpha and yet have 2 minutes of content because dev doesn't know how to compress and use useless ultra ridiculous HD renders of 100Mb size each. XD)

Just played the latest update...it's fucking creepy.

 

[Rebellious Blood]

So, Did you like the new PIANO troll? XD

You must be registered to see the links

. if you click the three dots, you can report the content as "not authentic." could try to save his patrons from themselves

Great analysis - supports the theory it's a multi leveled psychology experiment.

One of the weirdest thing is that he/fatcat17 has created this 11 minute long animation video (MM.webm if you extract all using unren.bat) of the that neon lit skeleton skull jumping around. All the other animations are 5-16 seconds long but his stupid skeleton skull is jumping around in all wacko colors for 11 fucking minutes! - only a seriously insane person would spend time creating 11 minutes of that shit - nutty drug induced fever dream.

I don't see how fatcat could be responsible for this animation. This is purely gumdrop's work, fatcat's animations are ordinary don't look like an acid trip, I doubt he'd take commission for this work or want to be associated with this level of trolling.

Fatcat didn't do any of the animations in this he said it himself in the discord.

I do think that GD just decided to end this, maybe he's curious to see if people will keep on believing and supporting even after that big FU to their face, as an experiment. Gotta admit it's fascinating. I barely play adult games anymore these days but I don't regret sticking around and installing discord just to see this mess.

Sorry about the long post. Gotta wonder if Tenlogos and Abby are genuinely dumb or if they're in on the troll...

 

[Casikaz]

Now I kinda regret that I left the Discord server yesterday, can't believe that those stupid idiots are still falling for it. "W-w-wait 7 days before you judge!!!"

Gotta wonder if Tenlogos and Abby are genuinely dumb or if they're in on the troll...

Fatcat exposed everything, and these two ass suckers are still defending Kyle. Can't be anything else than that they are in on the troll.

yeah you are right, based on discord, Fatcat17 is disassociating himself from scamdrops garbage animations - so it is all scamdrop.

Tenlogos and Abby are not dumb at all, they are in on it and get a 5% monthly cut of Scamdrops (Patreon) revenue to be so call "moderators" on discord. they play an important role to Scamdrop to keep people in check so they get explained how to think about what they read and see. like a thought police.

Motion to add a [mental dev] tag to the list of tags. (°u°)/

I second that motion

I feel so bad for the people who held on to that dying flame for 3 years.

I doubt it. Paid people can become whistleblowers. Fanatics will defend you and your work even if you flat out state you're a scam and have no intention of continuing.

What I don't get is why.
Why didn't he just keep the scam going? He was perfectly okay getting his patrons money before, it's not like it suddenly becomes ethical that he stopped it now and sure as fuck I don't see him refunding the money spent in the last three years to anyone.
I don't see anybody coming forward and actually confirm that gumdrop reached out to them and offered them an annual/lifetime membership (however worthless it would be).

--

I get that he wasn't happy with his game, but it's his and he could have just said he quits, no longer has the will to go on and is discontinuing the game. But doing this is simply incomprehensible.
I feel sorry for the people who latch on to hope and expect something in a week. Showing this level of disrespect towards his patrons is inexcusable. Even if he actually were to release something next week (he's not), he's still a dick that lost any and all goodwill he may have still had.

That update was hilarious and I couldn't believe what I was playing until I read the drug theory. Has to be what's going on. What wasted potential here, kind of sad.

I think the header on the patreon page changed from a guy with headphones looking at an orange screen to a guy looking at a blue one. May indicate that something might actually come out on Feb 26. If I had to guess, it won't be dual family but something similar to DFX.
