A remake/continuation to an abandoned game gets abandoned? Shocker.

Developer got problems with eyes. And she has few finished games, for the record.

With version 0.6 the game is fully playable. It is a small game with a limited number of girls and locations but they all have their special events to unlock and at the end of the 4th week you get a score.
The dev wanted to add more content in future updates before he/she had to stop due to (hopefully only temporarely) bad eyesight.

Well, I hate that the dev's health has gotten so bad that he had to abandon it.

Sad to hear about the developer's health, I was holding hope out for a HD animated remake of bondage island.
IMO that is Amaraine's best game. The fantasy aspect of Amaraine's other games never appealed to me although I never played this one.

The dev's full post on patreon :
Announcement:
This is hard to write. This has been a very supportive community, both verbally and financially, and I deeply appreciate everything you all have done to help me make these games.
I recently suffered a vitreous detachment in my eye, which makes it hard to look at the screen for hours at a time because I see little extra things that are actually on the inside of my eye. I’ve been told one gets used to it, and that it gets better. I look forward to that. I've also been told the other eye is likely to do the same thing within a year, and I'm not looking forward to that.
My intent with Leather and Steel was to write a second half -- renders and story for each character, letting you bring them deeper into submission -- or not, in the case of Isabella. Rather than begin that process, I’m choosing to stop development now, at a point when it is possible to have sex with every character. The next reasonable break point probably wouldn’t occur for 6 months.
I will continue to listen to your feedback, and I will release a bug-fixed version if necessary. If I make any subsequent changes to any of the games, they will be available here for free, until such time as I resume regular development. I don't want to charge anyone if I'm not putting in the time.
I'm going to be spending my time writing fiction, which is easier than coding or rendering for me right now, and lets me keep being creative.
I intend to keep this Patreon up as a tip jar for anyone who enjoyed one of my games and wants to toss me a few bucks. I suggest that my current patrons unsubscribe by the end of February.
Thank you, everyone, for your support! It's been a marvelous three years making erotic games.

Your 2018 saves are likely from Strange Gift.I thought I recognized this game started playing and it just felt familiar checked out my saves and what do you know I've still got a few dating back from 2018
When reusing the code from Strange Gift for Leather and Steel, the dev probably forgot to change the save game directory in file options.rpy in line 144 :
So both games Strange Gift and Leather and Steel share the same save folder under C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\RenPy, which is a problem since both games are not compatible with each others save games.
(Better change the directory name in your options.rpy.)
AfaIk Leather and Steel started in 2019 :

At least this dev has a truly valid reason for abandoning the project and might return to it once they've adapted to their new situation. Respect to them for at least taking the time to explain their situation and advise their patreons to unsubscribe.
The day variable is called "day".
You can directly read and change the game script since it is not packed into an rpa archive. (Just make a backup copy of the rpy-files in case of unexpected side effects.)
1. The game length in days is defined in file 02defaults.rpy in line 188 (near the end):
Code:
default game_length = 282. The day variable is evaluated in script.rpy in lines 648ff :
Code:
if day == game_length -1:
gn "Note: You have one day left before the game ends."
if day >= game_length:
jump Score
f "Hi honey, how was your day? Did you do anything with any cute girls?"
if day == 21:
f "It's too bad that tommorrow you're going to have to go into work."
gn "Every weekday morning and afternoon from here on, you are expected to be at the office. You will lose some points off your score if you play hooky."
$ office.unlocked = TrueBy adding some simple code like
Code:
if day > 14 :
$ day = day - 7You can also just increase the game length and deactivate the office ( ($ office.unlocked = False) or change the code into comments using #) or set the end of vacation to a high value, e.g. :
Code:
default game_length = 2800
Code:
if day == game_length - 7:
f "It's too bad that tommorrow you're going to have to go into work."
gn "Every weekday morning and afternoon from here on, you are expected to be at the office. You will lose some points off your score if you play hooky."
$ office.unlocked = True

I am playing Version 0.6.
I still get all the usual "This character will be developed more in future versions!", "You'll get to kiss this character in future versions!", "This content is not available for this character at this time." etc. announcements when trying to interact with Isabelle.
So basically 0.6 behaves like 0.5 in this regard. And yes i've checked several times, it definitely is 0.6 i am running.
Anyone else having this problem?

Yeah i did, thought that might be the case.
And it seems at some point when returning to the game after a pause i accidentially loaded an old save instead of one of the new game. Thus the problem with her not working as intended.
tl;dr: More or less my own stupidity xD
Jeez,I got to say I really loved this developer's games including dungeon and damsels……And I cant join his patreon since I'm Chinese and cant find a way to pay that dollar to him.Really hope the dev can recover.Besides I think his dungeon and damsel is really great that he can make a version 2 like Diablo2 or sth,add more things in combat and character like the fallen angel etc.
