Last time I played this game you were a bit constrained at the relationship level. You could refuse some of the girls to some extent, and not fully, but you could certainly not focus on mom and avoiding sister, or the opposite.
It is still the case?

The relationship with your sister is the big main one so you can't avoid that.

You can miss some stuff with the mum but not all, it's a family thing.

As far as the other girls, there is really only one "relationship" arc at the moment and you can skip that completely, that's with Violet. None of the others have got that far yet.

It was just a matter of time, releasing content every week with the tyrano engine really fucked him, burning him out and making potential new players just avoid the game altogether, saddest thing is that I got no Jessica at all. :teary:

Shit man... Talk about demoralizing. :cryingface:
What a shame, I really enjoyed his VNs. I think he was actually on a slow and steady rise and he could have gotten further than that. In fact, considering he was nearing the 1K milestone while he maintained all of the work on his own is admirable. I imagine he kept a part time job while doing this so it is understandable why he got burnt out.

I was really anticipating a closure for Daryce and Ethan's Legacy. Maybe someone will pick up those projects where he left? As a fan project of some sort. If I had sufficient knowledge in scripting and rendering I would have done so myself with passion.

I'm genuinely gutted both for him and me.

This and Dreaming of dana are 2 games I got hooked on the story and wanted to see finished but it looks like that isn't going to happen now.

It's a damn shame.

I hope things work out for him in the future.

That's sad to hear, I knew he was critical of his work but I didn't realise the depths of it.

I really do hope he gets himself back on the right path to being happy in himself.

If he does one day pick it back up again i'll be more than willing to support him again but if not I am genuinely grateful for all the work he did up until now. It's the first time i've cared more about the plot than the porn and while I would have loved to see how it all worked out there are far more important things for him to to deal with.

Still gutted it ended on the cliffhanger i'd been waiting for. I'll just imagine they rescued Ghost and then all watched the Twilight remake titled "Blade 4".

It's a pity. Despite all its flaws, the game truly had potential. Had he been able to carry on and polish some things, it could have been something really good. For all the criticism —some of it I levelled myself, always well intentend, since I was really interested in the game—, I think he is leaving with an idea of almost complete failure which is just too hard both on the game and himself. He left the door ajar, and I hope things improve for him and is able to come back in better personal circumstances to pick up where he left it. He might find some still regard his work fondly.

Anyway, at this point, all that matters is the person. I did not pay for this game, so I am not qualified to tell anybody how they should proceed, but I think I would try to be as understanding as I could given the circumstances. As for the rest, I really wish this guy all the best. Depression can be a real bitch, so I hope he can get out of that, improve his life and, hopefully, who knows, give this business another try in the future.

So incredibly gutted that this game has been abandoned :( although I can't really fault the devs reasons.
Personally, the only fault I could find in the game was not being able to name your character, I liked the characters, art and loved where the story seemed to be heading. Hopefully the dev can return when he gets back on his feet, this game has lots of untapped potential

Even though I like his stories, I wouldn't want him to feel pressured to finish them.
Hopefully he'll feel better giving more importance to his personal life. And who knows? the future is not written in stone, so maybe, just maybe...he might continue his stories.

I think I'm not the only one wo wishes him the best of luck in his future endeavors.
