What if... there's really no "additional animation", that this was part of the planned release but the author just wanted to make another excuse to have a delay and by saying that this is "additional animation" the author was hoping to appease people for all the delay.

What do I earn by pissing off the people who support me?
Making frequent releases, even with crappy quality, earns you more patrons and more money. So why on earth would I intentionally work slowly and delay the releases?

Make a poll right now and ask us if we want "Frequent releases, even with crappy quality" or "2 updates in a year with animations that never seem to end" why would you not cater to the needs and want of your own supporters just to uphold your own apparent 'standards' which is the cause of all this fuss? I honestly don't believe the fact that this delay was just an additional animation because you've been saying the same fucking stuff for the past 2 months that "its here.....Its almost done" I believed you the first time you delayed the update but at this point its become evident that you're either very lackluster about the consistency of your workrate or there's some malice intent involved with all these delays.

Ammm maybe cuz if you'd release more faster updates your game would be finished faster and as a result your income would be over that's if you don't have ideas for another game tho let's be honest the devs who stall on one game don't have ideas for another one...:WeSmart:

It's not about you purposefully delaying your work but more like not having enough content for all those time to compensate.

If I was asking what people want to play I'd be making a crappy incest harem game. I make the game I want to make. If someone happens to enjoy it the way it is and wants to support me, they are welcome to do so. If they want something else, then there are more than enough other options out there.

Just a couple of pages earlier people were saying that I spread myself too thin on too many projects, now this guy says I have no other ideas than the game. Sure, bud, I'll run out of ideas for porn content.

You could argue that Stoper understands that better then most, "good enough" IS when he's satisfied with the result, every other metric is irrelevant.

I agree with you! I've said it many times: he doesn't respect his paying fans. He only think about his personal satisfaction! (it is not such a good thing for an artist)
The update itself when ready will be short and very unsatisfactory for all players.
The fact that Stoper is keeping a secret of what will happen in the next update ... it's clear to me: only release the update when something is ready --- because he doesn't have to worry about announcing a story progression ... there aren't any promises to be fulfilled and he is free to do what he wants.
When the renders are finished he adapts the plot partially received by the story writer collaborator ... then he starts announcing an upcoming update .. but but after some time he realizes that the images already prepared in the past are not enough and do not fit the plot .. . and starts announcing that it needs more different animations and images.

The release delay is the constant problem because there is no regular schedule of update times as can be seen from all of its announcements ...
this game is almost an improvisation and ... where the plot is written only for the update in progress ... there is no defined story for the whole plot ... the story and the images have to be adapted to each update based on remaining time from other third party jobs.

If Jessica O'Neil's story had already been written and complete in text format from the start it would have been much easier and faster to plan for updates... (some modification from the patreon desires are always possible even the main story is written)
The announcements of our Hero Stoper, convey an obvious confusion in the way of planning his work

I continue to bet that we have to wait until September for this update and maybe much more for those like me want to have a real and big story progression...

I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that my first point went off the mark. You'll need to elaborate on that. Everything I said was entirely germane to the conversation. So, yes. Really, bro.



This is entirely a matter of your own opinion. I tend to regard the majority of superhero movies as not being the best examples of good writing, but there are plenty of people who evaluate them more highly. As for your including "the better part of fantasy and sci-fi stories" in this assertion, I can't really take that seriously. Edgar Rice Burroughs? J.R.R. Tolkein? C.S. Lewis? Robert Jordan? Isaac Asimov? And the list goes on and on and on. The genres of fantasy and science fiction are jam packed with good authors and good stories.



It's not a stretch at all. It's a very good story, even though I don't particularly care for it, myself. That's the main reason why it has stood the test of time, and why it has been beloved in every generation since it was first released, both by the critics and by the general public.



I suspect that you're wrong about this, though we'll likely have to wait a very long time before we find out for sure. Stoper has already foreshadowed a dalliance between Connor and Jessica's sister, so that seems likely. And Stoper has also made it clear that he intends to include sexual content for the mother in the game, and Connor seems the most likely candidate for her, especially since we probably can't look forward to any incest content between mother and daughter. I suppose that Christian could also be an option for the mother, but I think that Connor is more likely.

Sorry I can’t remember, who the fuck is Christian?
