This has been dead for about 5 years.

The chances of the dev coming back to this are about as high as me shitting out gold bars and buying my own person island where i'll keep my lesbian harem of ninja maids to protect me.

I'll also travel everywhere by helicopter because i've seen Jaws and fuck sharks, they aint getting me.

Despite the "Developer clearly states it's Abandoned", the Steam game page of the game, which will also be in Early Access ( :unsure:), has been recently set up:

:cautious:

On Patreon, which still exists, the developer hasn't been active for five years, and the support email on Steam seems another generic gmail with the developer's name: [email protected]
I don't want to go out on a limb, and I always hope I'm wrong about these things, but I think that this game too adds to the now long list of titles stolen and then resold as scams on Steam. List that already includes AOA Academy, AOA Academy: Christmas, Fantasy Valley Seasons 1 & 2, 53X Homecoming, Divergence: Beyond the Singularity Part 1 & Part 2, Lust Campus, Chains of Pleasure, Highway To Hell and Food Truck Story.

Reposting from Patreon for anyone interested. Game is abandoned again.

I've been thinking a long time about writing this post and I think it's the right move to be fully transparent here. These last few months were horrible and I am definitely going crazy taking the game apart and simply not being satisfied with both the content I'm currently working on and in the recent past.

There were moments where I was optimistic and thought "I will get there" if I just create and try out different versions of the scenes, and yet after all those attempts I end up going to bed feeling like I made the progress I can build on, only to find I scrap everything because it was horrible/unusable on the next day (It actually was horrible).

I would be lying if I said I don't feel burned out at this point.

Whenever I logged into discord, I just didn't know what to say, looking at how I am not delivering even though I am relentlessly grinding and spending my whole day on creating content for 0.08.5 for so long now.

I know people are waiting and have waited for some time now, but working on LaS now comes with pressure and stress to a point where it's almost crippling.
And that's what I want to announce in this post - I will be taking a break from working on LaS for the time being.

I'm sorry that I have to disappoint you guys, but I truly don't feel like I can keep going like this.

As for how long the pause on game development is going to be, I don't know, and to be honest, I don't want to set a date on it.

I will however still be checking into discord and maybe even make some posts about my thoughts on 3D related matters, but I really want to get a normal "relationship" with the project again, instead of waking up to a full day of failure and just feel like I am repeatedly hitting a wall.

While on the break I also plan to look into the script and I'm considering making changes to the dialogue or similar to avoid a repeat of the above. I don't want to run into something like this ever again and of course, I hope to come up with something that finally works.

I am not sure if it's simply a mindset thing or I may just be setting expectations for myself which I can't meet. Either way, I hope by taking a break I can both organize my life and get a healthy/normal sleep schedule once again. Also, I hope to get a less stressful mindset towards LaS in general (Which by all means is mostly self-imposed.).

As for the Patreon page, I've decided to leave things as they are for now as I have no idea how things are going to change (I will update the front page though).

I also completely understand that for many this is not professional nor acceptable, in that case, if you choose to drop or cancel your pledge altogether, I wholeheartedly want to thank you for checking out the game and for all previous support.

I will keep working on becoming the developer LaS and future projects need.

While this sucks, it is by no means the end. I will continue, I just can't say when that time will come.

For now, stay safe guys.

It would be nice to come back after 5 years, there are still fans of this game.

Stg some of these devs walks out of gold mine without realizing the potential of their own games that would prolly make em rich as fuck.
I know life problem and all but still so many devs make games with pennies in hope of going big one day.

I agree, although that wasn't the issue with this game and its dev at all. Serious mental health and family-related issues forced him to stop. And, while I'm sad the story won't continue, I fully support Veqvil looking after himself and his family, and for knowing that he needed to step away. The alternative — continuing until your entire world collapses around you potentially — is far worse.

True but you can't help but feel a bit pissed knowing this prolly would've been as big as badik or summer's gone.
AoA is the same too so much potential but I understand money aint everything.

Nah, I'm not pissed at all. Why would I be pissed that someone chose to look after themselves and their family? I care far more about the wellbeing of folks than whether their creations get finished or not.

It is fake and would figure out a way to report it as such as stolen.

With reviews from those other games, they all comment that the game is stolen.

No clue why Steam doesn't do anything about this, let alone some of the creators.
