i think in Silk's thinking he forgot that marketing is something that exists.
yes he is a good 3d artist, but he has to convince others to buy into that and openly antagonising others for not buying a product is stupidity.

It's going to be interesting to see what happens at the end of this month. I get the feeling he is going to lose some of the patrons he got for this game when they see what kind of posts he is making.

I personally think he is making those kind of posts on purpose so he can stop making games and have an excuse to quit.

The renders alone make it worthwhile to give it absolute try. Keep going dev.
The plot is still a mystery though the best one can make out is in the game title itself.

I dunno imo at least he seems straight... pay me and i give you something, its not like others devs who we all know how scummy they are with them lies after releaseing a few updates and then when the cash flows in only stalling the new updates...
A big part of success in any crowdfunding effort is making your donors feel like a team (whether in the tuff-talkin sense of this dev or the 'yaaay let's goooo fam' sense). And the way to do that is by appealing directly to their reptile-brain desire to feel appreciated and be a part of some collective effort to achieve a hyped-up finished product. If you can pull that off they'll fall over themselves defending what they pay for regardless of how mediocre it is, or even if you don't give them anything; all of this is even more true in a niche market like cg porno.

This guy is shooting himself in the foot right off the bat. He's nakedly commodifying his skills and effectively telling his patrons they are irrelevant as people; they're just numbers and they count for nothing until the grand total is high enough to please him.

Now the Patreon banner is calling Heir Apparent "A Primal Instinct story". So that begs the question, is it a story of "A" primal instinct, or is it a story that ties into the game primal instinct? I would guess the latter. Back when I was still a patron, silk had teased pictures on his discord channel of game characters (devoid of names I believe) that he had planned on doing a side project with if primal instinct had been more successful. I'm fairly positive that What is now Heir apparent was originally that intended side project, as a few of these same characters, i.e Katarina, summer, and a different looking Natasha were among the many ladies he teased last year.

That support level needs to rise. We're only at 29% of the required goal. A game of this caliber doesn't get worked on with such a small amount of people backing it.
v.0.01 took 8 months because people refused to back it. We would have had at the very least 3 releases by now with full support.
My skill set is being offered at a discount. This is a special game, and you all know where it's heading, so don't sit on the sidelines hoping someone else will pledge. If you can, pledge however much you can. As we get closer to that goal, more people will think it's achievable.
Silk...




Wow...just...wow. I don't even know what to say...:(

Hi, can anyone tell me, are there any sex scenes in this? And what is the nature of the 'incest' tag?

I just was not blown away by this story. I don't see how that one episode/chapter...whatever, could draw as much support as dev is expecting. It great to look at but if the story isn't good enough it don't matter. I would need to see another chapter or two so I could get an decent idea of what to kinda expect. Just hope it makes it that far. I doubt it though with the devs entitled attitude.

Maybe if we get to have hope of seeing the continuation of "Primal Instinct" more people would support you; many of us will like to have hope on seeing the continuation of the first game "Primal Instinct" the sisters and the Mother in that game were super hot and many people like me really like the story, and the art. I dont think it was a fail project it just needed more time to build a following. So the question to the developer:

1.- Will you consider continuing "Primal Instinct"? in the future many developer work on 2 games. This could bring more atention again and the goal could be reached more rapidly. I hope really for a continuation of "Primal Instinct" :cry: :cry: :cry:

2.- Also what do you think guys from the this board ?

Judging by the guy's unreasonable expectations, no doubt he's already considering this game's launch to have been a failure. While 35 new patrons in 9 days is a pretty respectable increase in support, it's not exactly the explosion in popularity he'd be hoping for. So at this point I'd be surprised if we ever even get another update to be honest. Which is a shame, because the art alone is damn beautiful.

This intriguing, very good renderings and beautiful girls, this project promises a lot
The game is promising, not the project (taking into account dev's attitude)

1.- Will you consider continuing "Primal Instinct"? in the future many developer work on 2 games. This could bring more atention again and the goal could be reached more rapidly. I hope really for a continuation of "Primal Instinct" :cry: :cry: :cry:
First the dev doesn't frequent that site anymore for a long time, and second I really don't think he'll continue primal instinct. It would be good if he continued this game for a start...
