HTML Abandoned Female Agent [v1.20.1p] [Crushstation]

[asdfasdf12341234ACSACA]

No... Crush's problem is that while he's able to ship code, he can't ship text.

I won't say the game doesn't have any code (the dice roll code doesn't count, it's literally an external library that, for some reason, has been copypasted instead of lazily imported), but the "code" in this twine/sugarcube is mostly text links.

No really, while there is some (pre existing) CSS and basic JS to make things like the character creator work, the "day to day" (year to year at this point) code is the standard twine text link with a single if.

That's the current build?

What about the build where you had the virtual dice rolling across the page? Was that copy and pasted too?

If he's not writing and he's not coding... what is he doing?

I wanna place a bet; Who is going to launch their product first?

a) Patrick Rothfuss "new" book
b) Crush update FA
c) North Stream 2 gets restored by a german lesbian Nazi

I go with:

d) G R R Martin finishes writing a Song of Ice and Fire.

Crush is not interested in a game with a plot, the game he wants to implement is this one:


Paper Dolls Fashion World; Cut, Color & Play: Interactive Dress-Up Book with Paper Dolls: A Fun Activity Book for Kids Featuring Creative Games for Girls

Yes, the code for the virtual dice is, in fact, copypasted from an existing JS library (well, multiple, but that's more or less how the JS community works). For reference, I'm using the online version (1.13) because I didn't care to download the latest one, but the code is the same.

Go to line 36243:

/**
* A set of polygons describing a convex shape.
* @class ConvexPolyhedron
* @constructor
* @extends Shape
* @description The shape MUST be convex for the code to work properly. No polygons may be coplanar (contained
* in the same 3D plane), instead these should be merged into one polygon.
*
* @param {array} points An array of Vec3's
* @param {array} faces Array of integer arrays, describing which vertices that is included in each face.

*/
function ConvexPolyhedron(points, faces, uniqueAxes) {
var that = this;
Shape.call(this);
this.type = Shape.types.CONVEXPOLYHEDRON;

Now, if it wasn't obvious that this part of the code is literally copypasted (I mean, do you really think Crush would leave so many comments like that referencing other authros?) search that code, verbatim.

Wow that seems too similar, identical even.

Now, let's be fair here: Programmers don't write every single tiny thing from scratch. Using libraries is okay. However, if you use the same method (take parts of this dice rolling code, google them), you'll run into the same situation: don't let him convince you that he wrote "20 thousand lines of dice rolling code", because he straight up didn't.

...and let's not forget (it seems he has) that, as far as we know (the internet never forgets), all of this "actual coding" stuff was done by that Hyneman guy, he hasn't mentioned him in a while so he probably doesn't work on this, but back in 2020 or so, it was always "Crush writes text, Victoria does the art, Hyneman does the coding"

Anyone know what caused this and how to fix it? it's from pixeldrain download Female Agent 1.20.1P (offline) version

tried open it from edge, firefox, chrome and still has that bug

 

[voerman]

That is a feature. Crush decided that upper clothes will be reworked later and currently the game will only include skirts.

 

[Riven]

I'm all for pointing Crushstation shortcomings, but as asdfasdf12341234ACSACA posted, there is nothing wrong with using external libraries and Crushstation was quite open about it.

I'm not often on this forum, so hit me up on Discord if you have any follow up questions, but: the dice roll code was implemented based on open source code, we didn't write it from scratch.

In the future I plan for dice rolls to be more frequent and consequential.

Similarly, alerts are taken from

, also copypasted for whatever reason. I guess he hates imports. I'm fairly certain there is very little code written by our overworked writer. And again, nothing wrong with that. You use tools like Twine to strip away complexity and focus on writing.

The problem arise when you struggle with writing and instead bury yourself in planning. In the end, all of this complaining is meaningless and as long as monetary support flows nothing will ever change. Incoming update about another mania episode, substance abuse and overworking.

Anyone know what caused this and how to fix it?

Probably a missing image. Press ctrl+shift+c, click it, and it should highlight the tag with the wrong src.

For those that are not familiar with the situation that might sound very far fetched, except it is actually not

Bip bop bip bip boooop

You want to meme or you want to discuss the game are interested in? You discuss the game later so I'll just say I'm sorry for fucking you, R2D2, in your holoprojector but you, bip poop, appear to enjoy it.

In the end, it's about fairness. Everyone deserves to know where their money is going and see tangible results. That's not unreasonable.

True and real. There should be monthly playable demos for feedback and... proof of actual work.

 

[boobthief]

This just makes me wish for a Disco Elysium-style h-game, botching every skill check and still making it to the end somehow.

AD&D with a decent DM and any rules they want will get you there. But, thanks, I am looking into Disco Elysium now.

Bruh i honestly can't understand you. 20 comments everyone telling you that Crush isn't doing the works he is PAID for while you defend him with "bubububut... are you paying him! then why complain!" and now....

"True and real. There should be monthly playable demos for feedback and... proof of actual work."

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!?!?!

Are you actually human or just someone with multiple personalities and severe brain damage?

I can't, really this is my limit.

What do you not understand, "severe brain damage" accuser?

I think developers can struggle but they should also be held accountable. For their sake and anyone supporting them. Clear communication is important.

It's real simple: if you don't like someone's work then don't pay them. But if you don't pay them then don't act like are owed something.

How much of your hard-earned money did you spend on this game?

 

[yewfella]

Everyone posting in this thread either enjoys the game (current or previous version) or the original premise of the game. From what I've read, you don't think this is a scam? Well, that's where I think your perspective differs from most. Either way, I think anyone who's enjoyed the game at any point would like to see it finished. It's quite unique, at least compared to most other games I've played. For me, the sad part about this is wasted potential.

I will say it simple because , jesus christ, it can't be that hard to understand.

Hi this is me, let's say i'm Bob.

- Bob one day found FA on this forum and decided to give it a try.
- Bob liked this game during it's first releases, Bob used to think this game had future.
- Bob started to see bad patterns on Crush behaviour, Bob didn't say anything because Crush still kept updating the game.
- Bob then saw Crush starting to post less and less and the updates were of bad quality
- Bob saw Crush scrap the game for the -lost count- times and Bob started getting suspicious
- Bob saw Crush write more on discord about his Excuses rather than "developing" his own game he's being paid to develop.
-Bob then realised; Crush is being paid to do NOTHING, Crush did NOTHING for half Joe Biden elective presidency, Crush did the maths (1+1 = Money) and instead of developing the game he spent 1 year and 6 month posting excuses on discord while (i repeat do you understand if i'm being too subtle) being PAID .
- Bob has an IQ superior of 2 but inferior to 5 and understood that; Crush knows he will be paid to do NOTHING so he rather scam with promises than work.

Should i do it ... more simple? Or do you understand how us as CUSTOMERS have a right to complain?

It's pointless. I think crush paying him for his support here or it's crush himself

What did Bob pay?

What did you pay?

CUSTOMERS choose to spend their money however they want and specifically you don't control their decisions.

You clearly care a lot about this game by posting here. I think you're angry that they are, yet again, late with an update. So you're seeking to punish the developer financially with... I guess... a boycott. It's not going to work.

- Bob is wasting his time crying about it here.

You are Bob's impotent rage. In a few weeks an update will probably drop. You're going to pay your own money to get it as a customer... right? Right? (Yeah, going to need to see your receipt before I believe you on that.)

Play something else (ask for game recommendations on F95)... don't just wait getting more and more upset.

It is pointless.

The only thing I received from Crush was a good game. You did too, which is why you're still here, still jonesing for the next update, you addict.

Happy if Crush wants to pay me - they never did - but genuinely, they seem to be a nice and polite person just struggling to make their game as best they can.

Which makes you haters too addicted to let this game go. Just one more fix before you go to the street, huh?
