Gee, I wonder which one? ;)

Hard not to be happy for Philly, though, his stuff raises the bar for adult games on just about every front. ICSTOR's animations used to be what set him apart, but Philly makes him look like an amateur. It's hard to go back to repeated 2 second loops in three different angles when you've seen someone break out multiple one-off 5-10 second clips for a single sex scene.
Who is philly i would like to see some of his material

Then when it come time to put up or shut up I start regurgitating some BS excuse about how it takes time and years latter while my profits have grown I still haven't gotten around to that goal.
You forgot about all the illness he came down with, first it was a cold, then ebola followed by SARS, MERS and now I believe he caught the corona. Give him a break man he has had it rough.

Or better yet Patron should periodically check if a creator is keeping good on their goals. The "Fully animated scenes" goal was achieved back in 2018 and here we are in 2020 with that goal yet to be fulfilled and not looking like it will anytime soon. Who knows how many patrons he gained because of that goal. There needs to be penalties for false advertising a future feature that's never going to be implemented and yet still profiting off of it. It's like me saying "Guys if I can reach 5k a month in earnings I will completely revamp the game from the ground up with improved gameplay mechanics better graphics ect ect". Then when it come time to put up or shut up I start regurgitating some BS excuse about how it takes time and years latter while my profits have grown I still haven't gotten around to that goal.
But isn't this a problem that solves itself? If patrons are unhappy with what is delivered, then they will stop contributing. If they're happy or don't care, then why should Pateron intervene? Sure, in extreme cases a large mass of don't-care means that those who do care will have to stand by and watch nothing at all happening, but still, that's not a problem for Patreon.

Tip: go to the main forum page. See the box right above "Announcements" that says "Quick search...". Type what you want to find (name of game or dev) in there. Type in "philly" and you see links to 2 threads with author PhillyGames.

You forgot the third and most important group, the people who forgot they're even funding this game. You're right that it isn't a problem for Patreon but their lack of enforcing encourages this type of practice which I think we can all agree isn't a good thing.

No, I didn't forget them, they're the ones that don't care. I support a couple of content creators, one on YouTube and one writing a blog on historical event. I get a receipt every month, stating what I supporting and how much I have spent. If you still support something after getting a monthly receipt, then you don't care.

But I agree that it's not a good thing from the perspective of the greater good. For Patreon, however, all is fine since they make money and that's their only goal. The creators, that is Patreon's customers, make money. A majority of the patrons keep paying, meaning that they're at least not unhappy. I'm having a hard time seeing Patreon wanting to do something about a situation that might be bad, but still a situation few people who matter complain about.

Do you still need help? Give me your save, I'll see where you're stuck.
Thanks for the reply. I finally got it figured out.
With Judy, I guess that's the end of her progress. Her home spot says WIP. She finally gave me Celia's key, which sorted the problem accessing Celia's place. I had to reload a save and replay a bit to get the scene with Celia distracting the guard.
The only strange thing (I'm not going to worry about it) is that after doing Celia's super volt vibrator scene, as soon as I got home, I received a SMS from her, saying that she wanted us to get together again soon. I figure that is just another WIP.

Yes that's all. It must be so:
Linda - 4/5, Caroline - 5/5, Sara - 3/5, Celia - 3/5, Liza - 2/3

I really adore this game but Icstor and his teams lack of communication has put a major smirch on it. A once a month update would have sufficed for me, but not even that. I have to cancel my payment at this point. Please give more respect to the people wanting to see your work flourish.

This is correct, it's why so many companies want you to pay for subscription services, why they have those first month free as long as you register credit details.

A lot of people are ignorant or lazy when it comes to their finances. The study that people where more likely to get divorced than change banks and this is despite many banks having shocking scandals. A subscription is out of sight and out of mind and companies can milk foolish people with them.

There should be absolutely no reason why peeps shouldnt be keeping tabs on their bank accounts vs their purchases.
Minimum, once a month people should be checking their statements and expenditures and making sure everything is correct.
