VN Ren'Py Halfway House [Ep.11 - Bonus 7-9] [Az]

[Darkdevil66]

So I understand that if a developer is active on Patreon for 5 years but doesn't add any update to the game, that game still won't get the "Abandoned" tag, right?

This is ridiculous...

Here I think there needs to be an 18 month gap from the last update (with out posting any previews or update logs anywhere) the AVN is considered abandoned. I think the last update was 15 months ago? roughly around that. However, this dev has always taken a long ass time to release an update. Would have been better if they chopped each episode into parts - So one part every few months. That would be more palatable for folk.

The abandoned tag gets applied if

• The dev hasn't communicated anything about the game for 3 months in all his platerforms ( Patreon, Itch.io, Twitter...)
• Or if the dev is still talking about it but goes on for 18 months without any update .

Confirmed here

Az is still posting reports & previews almost every months and the last update was released in February 2022, so he's got until August.

Abandoned tag or not, this game is vaporware. In the last 25 months, the dev has released 1 (one) update! The last time I played it (EP8), the story was still in its introductory phase. This thing is never getting finished at its current pace, and by the looks of it, the developer is in no hurry to switch things up. Two words -- wasted potential -- since this game could've been up there with the most successful titles.

It's true, even today, it's still a game with a lot of potential. Too bad that azrd79 put so much pressure on himself to make the game, last time he released the Episode 9 there were comments/messages of the dev that he was very stressed at the time of making it. Sad that it ended like this.

Supposedly Episode 10 should release next week, but I guess we'll see. I'm hoping that episode 10 at least has some real action with Emily, since it might be another 2 years before we see another episode after that. But yah, if the game wasn't good, I guess nobody would really care, definitely a lot of potential.

Savior has an identical girl. Blue hair and everything.

Savior has an identical girl. Blue hair and everything.

Technically, two of them.

 

[Defenestrator.for.traitor]

I mean almost half of the games have non natural(blue, pink etc.) coloured haired, edgy but broken inside and very emotional girl stereotype.

 

[TSSG59]

Only just discovered this game and I couldn't help but get drawn into the story.
I really like the characters and the story.
Good game IMO and a pity if it does get abandoned like so many others.

yeah, sure in avn where hasnt been action with any chick (side chicks included), you are hoping for an action with the main chick and only proper LI
did you consider making your own avn, that would be something to play, i have no doubts

 

[Ragnar]

There is gonna be some action at the club or with the milf at home.
Emily will get a kiss if you go her route.
Place your bets.

You must have been making the wrong decisions if you haven't had any action with any of the characters...

Well, at least a kiss with her shirt up again, haha.
