Yep seen that one a few times as well lol. Look at the end of the day I don't entirely blame the devs because it's up to the Patreons to stop supporting them when they pull this shit. If everyone cancelled their support it would force the devs hand but we all know many just subscribe to them and either forget or don't bother cancelling because the money means so little.

It's no wonder devs abuse the system because some are getting thousands per month and realise hey I can just do nothing for a couple of months make up some BS excuse and still get paid, basically free money.

No one believes it, the problem is the Patreon model which makes it easy for game devs to abuse it, we have seen it time and again with so many devs it's becoming almost comical. They start to earn a decent amount per month and realise they can just stall with almost no repercussions.

It's always the same excuses "The quality is not right, I have covid, my dog is sick, my sisters friends uncle is in hospital" etc etc

let's try to imagine that stoper is right about the quality.

There are thousands of games out there that use an ingenious solution to try to stem the problem and it is very successful.

When you create a game of this type it is the protagonist who must absolutely be flawless in the realization, the other characters can also have less care.

Don't tell me there are bad games because they don't make perfect because I absolutely don't believe in them.

This is the advice I give him in the hope that he obviously wants to listen.

It's just so hard to do so, we have seen one man devs put out more quality content in less time working on 3D titles with much more complicated engines and mechanics, this guy is just working on a VN in renpy and it's not a very complicated one either.

Now don't get me wrong setting up scenes, animations and rendering etc takes time but it doesn't take this long, I have played around with it many times in the past just for fun and if you dedicate your time to it completely you should be able to churn out a lot of content in a couple of months and yet here we are what like 7 months later? LOL.

Unfortunately yes I'll tell you a good truth I think stoper is not as motivated as before in the development of Hard News I hope I'm wrong but by the way I can be right on that too.

Yeah as I said before it's all down to the Patreon model, now this dev has a support base and is getting thousands per month he like many other devs figure why bother to work so hard when they can take their time and still get paid almost the same amount.

I do not want to start a riot here but i have been playing VNs for 10-12 years and this is generally how a project is abandoned.

PS: its ok to have hope and to like something

Do mods still delete your posts here if you call this scam a scam?

 

[mentosa]

calm down guys. what definitely will happen:

- one update sometime this year
- more lesbian stuff
- maybe a bit more intense teasing with the males

F**k the lesbian stuff.
Lesbian sex is just touching / physical contact.
I want an alien invader in mouth and pu**y that
is causing animalistic involuntary reactions and convulsions.
At least teasing might save this update a bit.

Any one heard from stopper whether from patron or discord ? Or its radio silence

That's probably the latest news.

I hope it's sex on Jessica and Heather's date if it's not going to be very frustrating.. but I'm sure it will be something very hot between the two of them who knows?
A beautiful trio

there is also to consider the aspect that does not even want to make a shred of probing in his patreon.
