From what I hear, it's not like Crush actually listens to anyone but cheerleaders there, either. I'd guess he doesn't need to banhammer a lot since he's fine putting on blinders.
I'd say he listens to everyone, positive or negative. And then he ignores everyone's advice equally. In the end, he does what he wants even if nobody else wants him to do it.From what I hear, it's not like Crush actually listens to anyone but cheerleaders there, either.

Hey guys! I worked all 7 days since the last report, no days off. No peace for the wicked.
The changes I made on Friday 5th were really helpful and have made the whole thing much more fun to play. This week I updated multiple scenes to reflect the changes to pacing, structure and tone, and I'm really happy and excited with where the writing is now based on these changes.
This draft has now succeeded at the main thing I wanted it to do (and the main thing I want to keep doing, going forward with the game): make it less of a slideshow. Malaysia now has two separate mission paths ("operator" vs "honeypot", a microcosm of the heroine's whole core conflict – I know that most players will choose "honeypot", but I think the existence of a viable alternative path makes it hotter).
It also has a separate ending, with entirely new NPCs, for players who prefer to skip past the Max mission entirely. This ending's short but I think it's sexy, and kind of sweet. I wrote it on Wednesday, it took 10.5 hours.
There are also lots more skill checks and decision points than there have been in previous episodes.
I need to finish editing the Max date (which I'm partway through doing), and edit the Max sex scene (which I'm hoping to start on by Wed or Thurs this week). Fortunately I think this is going to be pretty straightforward because the changes I made on Fri 5th included big characterisation improvements for Max and the heroine, and it's making their (now optional) chemistry much hotter and easier to write.
Okay, it's been a long day and my brain is mush once more. I will rest it tonight so it is fresh for more work tomorrow. ❤

surprise, surprise.... more hard work, no dates
lol, it's true, tell Crush to do another reboot, he'll love the idea.There's too much negative sentiment at this point, the only way to fix this game is to start again again.
Honestly I think the best move for him creatively would be to drop this idea entirely and do an unrelated game, something small and contained that he can map out completely before he starts writing. That way he could actually finish something and give himself the confidence and experience of completing a project. After that he could come back to this and do a better job. I recommended that to him and he reacted like I was mad.There's too much negative sentiment at this point, the only way to fix this game is to start again again.
Ooh, maybe we should try to get everyone to tell him to do another reboot. Then, in his quest to childishly never listen to advice, he'd be forced to make actual progress!lol, it's true, tell Crush to do another reboot, he'll love the idea.
Wow. All I ever tried to do was make a game you guys would enjoy. Anyway, sorry for interrupting the circle jerk.
In another year we still won't have the lifepath he has supposedly been working on for the past 18 monthsi'm willing to bet all of the criticism will go away if you manage to drop 3/4 solid updates in the next year. even typing this is copium on my part, the part of me that still wants to see progress. i just don't have any faith in that part anymore.
Yes, it's a great alternative.btw.. Blue swallow does the intro much better, but even there the draw to me will be what comes next!
what's Victoria's Doll lad. I only see Victoria in big city when I try and searchYes, it's a great alternative.
The only thing that's still better than Blue Swallow is Victoria's Doll. This is mainly because the clothes change automatically with the scene, and dressing manually feels better. It also has a back view and many sizes ranging from S to XL.
However, if you only care about the text, Blue Swallow is just as good.
I think that is the paperdoll in FA. Victoria is the name of the artist that probably doesn't exist.what's Victoria's Doll lad. I only see Victoria in big city when I try and search
yeah i thought it might be a joke about "the lovely Victoria" but had to take the chance, in case there's another spy vidya out thereI think that is the paperdoll in FA. Victoria is the name of the artist that probably doesn't exist.
I don't understand. Is it a joke or a game idk aboutyeah i thought it might be a joke about "the lovely Victoria" but had to take the chance, in case there's another spy vidya out there
I think the OP was commenting on the paper doll used in Female Agent, which is made by Crush's collaborator who goes by the handle Queen Victoria.I don't understand. Is it a joke or a game idk about
