Others Happy Heart Panic [Build 22 SS] [Doggie Bones]

[Alone in the Darck]

I think the new magician enemy is indicative of the wasted potential of the game. She's the first enemy you can't just rush down and combo spam, meaning you have to be careful how you approach combat with her. There is a lot of ways to make enemies and traps interesting, but I think the slow rate of progress makes people lose interest.

Compare this to something like Secret Care Cafe that has nearly weekly updates and releases, with a dev who is active in his thread taking bug reports, criticism, ideas, and positive reviews. I wish this game had at least some semblance of professional or artistic passion about it, because HHP really does have so much potential.

He's right. The game is good, the controls are fine, he has fixed bugs, the characters are good, and the animations are great. the problem is the waiting time and that feels like a scam. although it could shut our mouths with a super big update.... but it would be dreaming high.

Seeing how the portal works on a horizontal plane is neat but I'm not a fan of how it pretty much instantly warps to you if you're above them vertically. That one wooden platform in the gardens is so annoying because of it.

I would think that with 4000 a month, they could afford to expand the team, and end up with bigger, more timely releases. This would then net bigger rewards with people being invested. As is, they seem content with a small fish, small pond mentality so I guess we're just stuck with this

Here is a more recent version, I think the image you see is a new area of the garden.

It's terrible that people have such low expectations of artists, specially the authors of this game. People saying this update is the result of even 1 month of development is insane. Remember the devs are getting paid 4k/month on patreon alone. I'm guessing that could mean about i dont know... 20 working hours a week on it, if you are talented and proficient in your world building or whatever you want to call it then dont work /hour and for for content (goals per month), but the standart people should have is not a new enemy every 2-4 months. The challenge in through updates is about thinking new things to add that fit and are interesting, not actually putting them in the game. That could be helped or solved with feedback or patreon updates (that apparently didn't happen).
The people are good at their job or the game wouldn't really matter to as many people, but if you take more than a month to add an enemy i would expect you had to think about ways to involve more things, like new areas, lore behind areas and future enemies (so they make sense in context), introduce some different design for bosses or mechanics, etc.
The update that brought the secret room in the "Playhouse" was worth 2 or 3 months if you also say you are planing to expand on that area, because that's work we don't see but happens; for example.
If there's any other reason, medical, emotional, personal, etc; i think they should come forward and say there were issues and be as transparent as they are comfortable being, with the people that are paying and supporting them.

It also seems like her portal ignores invincibility frames after escaping.

It is a new thing so hopefully it's a sign of better things to come? You know, knock on wood.

 

[thesleeper]

Well that was disappointing, we got 4 new things and 3 of them are heavy fetishes focusing on diapers and smells. I expect garbage with the baby content but the magician is just a wasted chance for some better animation scenarios.

 

[BizarreReverie]

Screw y'all!
Yay diaper stuff!!!

 

[jbloggsey]

Still can't find more spooky easter egg content, which I hoped they were secretly adding. Just a new chat box and a spooky cabinet in the files, which is a shame.

 

[penguinthunder]

I'm more disappointed in no gallery which I find to be essential to any porn game

It's one artist/programmer. Aside from Voice Acting, Music, and Various Written Material (probably dialog/the pages you can find in game) they're on their own. Giving one person to create a game and have it be updated every month with art and good programming is insanely dumb. Though it can be argued creating a game by yourself is also insanely dumb. They're also quite transparent to people that pay and support them, on their discord. They even have on their patreon; "Pledges do not need to be maintained for content in case you would rather wait till each major release or specific update." Basically, you don't need to pay at all unless you want to download an update before it is released publically. It is also explained on their patreon about page that info about updates will be in the discord, btw.

Literally anyone who says they're stealing money from supporters are being ridiculous. It is explained by their patreon about page that you don't even need to pay unless you want to. Critisms/Critique are understandable as long as they have a valid ground. Even disliking the ABDL stuff is understandable, but this is their game they don't have to apeal to people that don't like ABDL, which they explain is on their patreon page is their kink. (Don't get me wrong I'm on the side of non-abdl.)

then why don't they use that massive amount of money they are being "Donated" to hire a bigger team so updates would come out faster?

you would think?

 

[KasyLake666]

4,000 dollars. "Massive."
It is definitely more than I get a month that's for sure and I'd consider massive around the area I live, but not necessarly massive in comparison to those who make more than that in a week. I do agree that it'd be great if there were more people that worked on the game and have updates every month or every other month, at least something consistent. Ultimate it is their money, which depends on their supporters, who were told they don't have to even pay.

and? that still doesn't mean anything. your right it's their money but they are being greedy with it, sure they told people they don't HAVE to pay, but that doesn't mean that they can slack off on updates. Fact it should be even more reason to work on updates more since they are getting donations from people who want to see more of their game, but insted they are slacking off. While i agree it's the people's choice to give this person their money, i feel as if they shouldn't abuse it as they are currently doing so.

 

[KasyLake666]

I just don't like complaints without proof. Stick with; they're slow, the amount of money they're making isn't fair as there are better people that could be making it, I don't like ABDL content and wish they'd work on different or multiple areas of perversion rather than just one at a time, their work isn't satisfying and is the reason why I don't support their patreon, and list facts.

mate this game is in development for 4 years if this is not proof for you. i guess me and you are not living in the same world

 

[Sir pikmin]

You say they're slacking off with no proof. Sure they haven't updated the game in months but they're drawing and coding. They update people about what they're doing on their game in their discord, then they post the either the full update or half an update. Not every person works fast. They work slow. You say they're greedy but they're working like they've always been when they were given little money. They'd work the same with much less. Just because you're not satisfied on the progress doesn't necessarily mean they're abusing other's money. You're stating with no evidence besides dissatisfaction. If they were abusing/greedy other's money why would they say the people who fund them don't need to pay? That's dumb businessing. You brush it off as if it's meaningless that I say it, but I'm not saying it as an excuse. I'm saying as a fact. A fact Doggie Bones accepted that they're progress wouldn't be satisfying to many people and so told them not to unless they wanted to.

If you want to argue that they don't deserve the money based on their ability of programming/drawing/making a game, sure. I believe people should be paid more when they have the ability and are able to satisfy the person that pays them. But in this case the person that pays them are hundreds of individuals which pay a few dollars each month, which adds up to how much they're making. And the people that support Doggie Bones are satisfied whether or not you personally aren't.

Doggie Bone's patreon tells what people would support and they're supporting what Doggie Bones is doing. What Doggie Bones does with their money is their choice. If they chose to pay another programmer (probably a stranger) they can. They can also get scammed doing so. If the people stopped supporting Doggie Bones, Doggie Bones would still work on them game. You act as if they're Yandere Dev, when really they're just an amatuer programming pervert making a porn game that found a fan base, which they don't abuse.

Are there others that deserve that money over them? Yeah. However, they're getting the money regardless. They're not greedy. They're not abusive. They simply got lucky while also working on something they want. Is it fair? No. Is shoving negative aspects onto them that don't apply to them fair? No. They're not gonna magically going to get tons of programming skill and have an update by the pace they go. The people they make money from give them a small amount despite being told they don't have to as Doggie Bones accepted they're work wouldn't be satisfying to most people. Just wait till the next update or don't.

You act as if you know how many hours they work. They could be working more hours than you know, they could be working much less than that. It's not like I know. I don't pay/support their patreon for almost a year now as I took their own advice. (Doesn't help most of the stuff they've updated with is ABDL content which isn't definitely not my niche.) You can be angry at them. Just don't throw baseless accusations.

My accusations aren't baseless, Nor did I ever say i was angry. While you make multiple points, you don't have to go on a multiple paragraph rant about how your right and I'm wrong. This game has been slowing down in development ever sense the patron reached over 3 thousand a month. Many feel as if they are getting lazier, being rewarded for doing nothing. Another reason many are upset is because they promised monthly updates, and yet they failed to deliver on their promise. In the end , it doesn't matter. Both of us are both right and wrong and this is a dumb porn gane with a dev who is letting their money get to their head. This game will probably die pretty soon and the dev will abandon it and run off with all the money they've earned, but can we do anything about it? No we can't.
