VN Ren'Py Abandoned Mad World [Release 4.1.0 WIP] [Smoke Mob Games]

[allanl9020142]

HOLY SHIT I had to see it on my own eyes and... wtf? Do they have some kind of bipolar disorder and are living in their own world or something? I have read Stencilbits's posts on Patreon and it is hard to believe this guy is for real, 6 months ago he said update is ready and he still didn't publish it (game's thread is fun to read tho ).

I had no idea devs can be such extreme in here and if that's the case then I'm curious if Capella will go their ways. Thanks a lot for your elucidation hirikumo

Eh, I wouldn't really be all that perturbed if there was never another update. I also wouldn't be surprised if he just popped up again soon with a post. I think this dev has his own circumstances so I can't knock him. But for sure, a few updates every now and then would be nice. Even if it's just a "too busy with life but I'm alive" kind of thing.

But I think my ambivalence stems from me just losing interest altogether in VNs. It really just feels like there are a few good ones left but anything still updating and worth playing are all the ones that are starting to take a year or longer.

And don't even get me started on BADIK, DPC's got a plethora of problems and the long updates are just a single symptom. But it's too hyped to fail at this point so if I'm still around in 5 years, I'll just be waiting for everyone else to realize it jumped the shark.

yeah it would be better if he posts more often on patreon

Oh, people are well aware of decreasing quality of BADIK but it's noticeable mostly just for veteran players who played that game tenths or hundreds of times and they will stick to it anyway, just like you said. New players will be happy with "prettier" renders and storywhich is not that bad either if you compare it to most of the other AVNs these days.

That is the only one thing making me think that he may be actually still working on this game. He is also daily here on f95zone so this is even more strange to me, why he doesn't care about his game getting Abandoned status here and what's more important, doesn't give posts on Patreon. Did he said why? Surely someone asked him on Discord?

I think that you could directly message him here on F95.

how do you know that Capella or anyone is logging in daily in f95zone? we can see that? lol
can i ask where?

Capella can write, for one. And his action scenes staging are also great. I just wish he post on patreon more often really. but that's just me

edit: If new update will be just rework, is it still considered as new content and Abandoned is removed? (in terms of f95zone rules)

Yes any new update getting here will remove the tag

 

[SilentPsych]

I like this game. Guess I'll see next year if there will be progress like my story

 

[Mookys]

Abandoned, really?

 

[HiHaHo]

Abandoned, really?

for now its only due to no update within the timeframe to avoid the tag

What the hell are you talking about?

F95's rule for abandoned tag because of no updates is 18 months.

Or 3 months without official communication (patreon, etc.)

The Author's last post on Patreon was on December 21. The Abandoned tag makes sense in this case.

If the Dev is active on discord, than he should have no problem posting on Patreon or here.
