VN Ren'Py Abandoned Love and Submission [v0.08] [veqvil]

[Canto Forte]

He should move over in

We all hope he can adjust to job hunting like any other adult programmer.
We all dream of travelling the globe in search of a place to settle down.
Hope for a good life and a genuinely fantastic game to reflect a gorgeous life.

i just want him to get better soon and work at his best. nothing else.
just imagine if he'd get angry and grumpy and decide to NTR all of them. I cant recover from that man.... just cant

is something curious how many new and old devs have depression,mental,health and social issues lately, i mean, i see many devs falling down for the same hill, idk if is something in the coffee or whatever but is getting so much common lately and is starting to get worrying

At the end of the day we're all human, there's no telling when and who might have something going on in their personal lives, unless they tell you, best to just give them time to get things on the right track and support them (mental support if nothing else) and hope for the best, and of course wait patiently

 

[mammonite]

this is my favorite game here next to milfy city </3 well . .

 

[Hadgar]

this is my favorite game here before milfy city </3 well . .

Goddamn autofix. I corrected your sentence, do not thank.

 

[muttdoggy]

Added on hold status since veqvil said he needs to focus on his RL issues first before returning to the game.

 

[Hzy]

Something in the past must have hurt him deeply. Getting rid of such a memory is like denying his own personality, which will be very painful and repeated. I hope he can find someone to talk to.

 

[yueziyue]

finally a sad news.
It's almost the best game in this forum,the dev did very well.
but game it's not the whole thing in life.
we can wait till the dev back.

 

[Mhacxk]

well saw that coming good dev start but bad ending welp there still milfy city to follow tnx for all ur hard work veqvil may ur game rest in peace

Well, at least he's honest about it instead of making up shit about technical obstacles or family issues or whatever. Has he actually frozen the Patreon though? He shouldn't be accepting any more donations.

Well that is up to him, but every patron knows the situation now and some may will want to keep supporting him for a bit. Others will draw their conclusion and stop supporting, next billing is far enough away still.

I hate to say I told you so, but fuck it, I told you so

Well time will tell, but we all know very few devs are able to get back from situations like this and pick up developing again after. I really hope Veq will be one of the exceptions and he will find the professional help needed to change things around.

Also people sometimes feel they support people cause they like them and those people are in a bad part of their lives, just as some people support people to gather money for an operation or legal fees on the internet. Yeah those still supporting him after this will not do so to get an update for the next month, but for their own reasons so it is fair enough.

 

[Onysko]

So did he set his patreon to pay per update, or is it still monthly?

It is currently set to monthly payments.

 

[bobbo69]

Well, take care Veqvil, it was fun while it lasted

I think it has more to do with the added stress these games cause. For me I was doing about 110 hours a week of work when i was doing DA. When I began Broken Dreamers I am forcing myself to top out at 90. After a year in a half of 100 hour weeks it begins to add up and your mental state is just flat out going to break down. It is probably another reason why more established dev will slow a bit, mentally they just can't keep that pace. Like, monthly releases are a thing of the past for me. If i kept doing those I would burn out. Veq had the extra pressure of doing something really complex for his game which would have compounded any real life issues he had with the stress of trying to meet deadlines for the game and his real life work.

Now I have to go to my day job :|

 

[Dependable_223]

Too bad what happened i hope he gets better soon. i only wish he comunicetd this sooner instead of just posting on his patreon a release date with was never gonna happen. when he placed the februari release he should have put the onhold right their. I think he waited too long and may have done more harm to himself. instead of coming out clean when he felt down.

I only hope that this is not easy way out. like an excuse other devs been using. Right now dev like Aorrta comes to mind witch is not a geood sign.

 

[repuindy]

Really a bad news. Take your time @veqvil.

 

[03abc]

Update was supposedly almost done more than a month ago, looks like he lied about that. All this gives me Irredemable vibes.
Besides he has crises all the time, few updates and then few months pause. This won't stop, it will be repeated all the time.
