Ape..... seriously? If ever a game screamed, "Let me choose the protag's name" it's this one. Speaking of the protag, two minutes in and I already hate him... not off to a good start. He's a completely irredeemable prick.

So this was a really nice update- I'm definitely enjoying the story and everything, although it's had certain moments where I couldn't help but stop and wonder wtf I'm even doing with my life.

With that said, I must offer a probably unpopular opinion: while this is a pretty fun game that I'll see through to the end, I can't really say that it ending with the next three releases is a bad thing. Sometimes shorter is better, and I honestly can't see how this could possibly make it through 6+ more. I think it's better to keep it short, sweet, and move onto something bigger and better than to drag it out, especially if you're not getting the amount of support you were hoping for.

Regardless of whether you carry this on into the extended version or not, I'm definitely a fan and will look forward to whatever projects you're working on.

I also really enjoy this one, a good mix of creepy and sexy with its atmosphere, haha.
I'd like the story go on for 6 more episodes, pretty much because there's still so many girls in the story left to advance with (personally I really want Lena, Zenny, Haley and the new girl introduced in this update).
But I think I agree with you story wise, it really can't go on for much longer really, not without dragging it unnecessarily.
Basically all they'd need to do is to find the means to get off the mountain to the nearest town/city and that's basically it, but oh course that would be when the bad guys really would start making moves and the final showdown begins, as always. Only reason to drag the story for too long is to have route leading to sex with each girl, depending who you chose to pursue, and that's about it, unless the dev gets really creative, of course, haha.

Being the 55 y/o that Genna was gonna marry, I'm extremely unhappy to find out this way that she was being unfaithful prior to our nuptials! I don't know what is worse, the fact that my fiance cheated on me or that is was with some prick named "Ape"! Because at 55, I am some sort of impotent, decrepit dinosaur. ( just like @thunderrob :p)

In my opinion, Patrons aren't buyers or consumers. Creating a game for a hobby isn't a professional and lucrative activity. We check the bugs, we accept errors (and in this game, there are a few) and lack of time because it isn't a business. When I enjoy the music of a street-artist I give him some coins ever, but nobody blames who doesn't. Do you want a job in EA, Sony or Konami business? Good. There are times, hard and controlled job, responsibilities. And a fixed salary.
Do you wanna sharing your art and desires and fap with a funny community of fappers? Better :D But the rules are different.

Seriously, that's not the attitude that successful developers (or indeed any other kind of business people) take.

I'm a professional marketing guy (for over 20 years). I've worked just about every type of business marketing from porn to pharma, every kind of financial product (mostly big banks and insurance companies), right on to a major international News channel, and more ecommerce than I care to even think of. Even worked for some major games studios along the way.

There's this thing called 'Market Research' - and all it really is is getting opinions and feedback from people who match a target demographic - such as people who have paid for adult games. The market research companies put together a panel of maybe 10 of these types and ask them some questions ... and that costs around 50k GBP. You're getting better targeted demographic opinions for free. Listen to the criticism, because it tells you why people in your potential market chose not to buy. That's what the grown-ups in business do.

Now sure, the difference between what you get here and what you get from a market research company charging you over $60k USD is that here the feedback won't be filtered for politeness. But I promise you that if you offer them $1,000 each to reword it nicely they will, and it will still be less than 20% of the cost businesses pay for the same thing. Or suck it up and keep the thousands. Your choice.

For myself, I'd look at as people paying me $100 a time to swear or call me an idiot and laugh all the way to the bank while these guys tell me, for free, exactly what I should consider changing if I wanted their money.
Click to expand...

that's some remarkable advice. if anything, the dev should be grateful to you for this FREE OF CHARGE advice and grateful to this site as well !

F95 FTW ! GREAT SITE ...

he should gather his marbles and chin up, completing the game as originally intended !

Woah, calm down. He is a dev thinking about ending an unprofitable venture, not a doctor threatening to unplug your comatose grandma. Nothing unethical about wanting to make money with your games.
