Ren'Py Completed Milfy City [v1.0e] [ICSTOR]

[JoeBanks]

I think F95 should treat this as abandoned if it stretches out to 18 months without an update. We're at 10 months right now...

The problem is, he hasn't actually abandoned it. He definitely might not be working on it regularly, but he has to be acutely aware of the perception since his Discord is pretty much full of people asking about the release daily.

He doesn't engage with his audience at all, which I find really weird. I personally understand delays, and as a patron for like 1-2 months of his, I realized pretty quickly that engaging with his audience wasn't his thing. That alone for me is enough to shy away from a dev.

(Not to talk, as I have been avoiding F95's thread on the game I work on for a while now

I think it's fair to say, with no release and little progress over a year, that at least "on hold" seems like an accurate characterization. If he's working on it so infrequently as to make very slow progress, it's effectively on hold.

It's not even a year from last release? It seems like 10 years ago thanks to this thread.

Maybe, just maybe, he's been working on it all along and has decided rather than release it update by update, he's just going to release the final product, all finished and loaded with content. Maybe his silence is all leading up to a big reveal? It's just a theory.

Maybe, just maybe, Valve's been working on Half Life 3 all along and has decided rather then release any info on it, Valve's just going to release the final product as a surprise, all finished and loaded with content. Maybe their silence is all leading up to a big reveal? It's just a theory.

...right...
If you truely believe that after the shit he pulled in regards to 0.6 you must be desperate for this game to continue.
There was a time in between 0.5 and 0.6 when people did have that hope... but it was crushed by ICStor back than... now a days everyone should be aware that he is no longer invested in the project but earns to well to just let it die as he previously did

I'm guessing the tongue in cheek intent of my post didn't translate well.

might help to use emoticons or add something like "sarcasm off" at the end of the post... considering the blue eyed guys we tend to see around here from time to time this could have been your true opinion.
Atleast good to hear you haven't lost touch with reality... yet

My god it all makes sense! HL3 confirmed!

Also I saw that he did a poll and the "move on to a new project" won. Who would choose that knowing how he runs projects?

What!? When did that happen that's crazy

Stev1 This was posted on September 10. I had to dig a little to find it. Basically said he was going to shift focus to the new project. Basically he never announced the project was on hold, but just LET SOMEONE ELSE WORK ON IT. The groundwork seems to already be done, and he has staff now, just "oversee" the project or something. I don't know, I'm annoyed seeing this quoted post again.

EDIT: The exact post was on page 2386 for me, in case you want to see in context.

I've read this a few times over the last pages. The fact that some people keep repeating it doesn't make it true. In fact, it's absolutely false.

The choices in that poll were not:
1) I keep making Milfy City.
2) I make a brand new thing.

The 2 actual options were:
1) I rush Milfy City's end in 2 more updates in the next few months and then move on to something new.
2) I keep developing MC properly at a slower pace, while starting to work on my new game.

Obviously, Milfy City's fans were really afraid that ICSTOR might just drop the game altogether, so when they were given the choice they clutched at straws and settled for the lesser evil. That is, they accepted to get slower updates (hahaha!) if it meant the game would eventually be completed properly.

Here's the post mentioning the poll results:



He hired Baron too! His renders and animations of Judy must be getting rusty after being unused for months now

If MC's development slows much more, we're going to need to hire an Archaeologist to dig through the layers of dust it's been collecting.

Guys, to understand the feeling of being betrayed, you need to be really in love with this game. In order to love this game you need to play it first, then be a member of his patreon, pay $10 each month, for 7 months. Then come back here and tell your story.

makes more sense this way...

I love this game and the (be it thin) storyline it has. There is some depth to the characters, and I've only ever played what has been published here.
I'm sorry to hear it's been quite a while since we had updates and that there's a chance it may be abandoned.
A bit of a waste for all the great artwork that's already in the game so far only to never get any resolution for most of it.
I'm turning to the fan art thread of this game for somewhat new content now.
There are some very good artists in the fan section there.

We are 1 week away from 10 months since update, why do people credit what this person says as anything creditable?

 

[PePeTheCoCk]

So the "conspiracy theories" turned out to be true after all
