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

[J II D]

No one has less faith in icstor than me, or has less faith in this project being completed.

That said(and this is only to those who are paying and complaining).
Just do what i have been doing since a month ago.

Cancel all your pledges to everyone and make a note of the amount you are/were paying them
If a developer produces a new "real" update, pay that amount times the months he has worked on it.
If a developer decides that he isn't going to return or vanishes into thin air, don't pay him...

This way the paradigm shifts from
Paying for "Future promises" to the more usual " pay for a product" .

That whole monthly system of paying for empty promises and fairy tales has proven "exploitable" in the last 24 months, and i am not primary talking about ICSTOR.... I am talking about the more severe cases like Irredeemable, Gumdrop, Combin Ation and more.

So if you are paying and thinking about dropping your pledge or anything like that.
That option might do the trick for you ; ).

I am not saying that everybody should drop their pledges and and never come back.
Only saying that updates should be rewarded, but there should also be room for consequences if it goes badly ; )

Edit:
Those who have never paid a penny and are complaining..
GO AWAY......
Sure, you are allowed of an opinion of the game, but if you have never paid a penny to anyone then you have no right to talk about the development.

 

[Q Who]

thats because people kept voting for Caroline in the polls, but i believe ICSTOR has said that hes not gonna be doing any more polls and hes just gonna work on the characters he feels liek working on and this next update

He says he will do polls but not for which characters to focus on. Instead, polls will be for poses and other fine tuning points.

 

[Q Who]

I just can't fucking understand why people keep supporting these devs, they take huge benefits and keep milking the cow and of course now that's a 5 month holiday...

This fucker has 5300 patrons, being $1 the lowest bid which almost nobody pledges and $10 to $15 the most common except for a few guys dropping $50 or more this guys could be potentially making easily $15k-$25k a MONTH.

Even if Patreon took HALF that's plenty to fucking organize yourself, invest in new hardware, invest in hiring help in order to finish these games... I still can't fucking wrap my mind around the idea of people not demanding their money back from these "devs" after hiatus like these.

EDIT:
Just to clarify if I can I always support the games I like/liked, I supported games like Strive for power, Dreaming of Dana and so on... what I refuse to do is be someone that pays $15 each month for a year, I always try and be fair, I considered these games to be priced at maybe $50 so once I reach that quota I take the payment out. There's no reason for me to keep paying $15 each month for 2 years to a total of $360 for a 6 hour game or a short adventure one. That's preposterous... this whole "keep paying for life til I feel like finishing the game" model is just so damn wrong.

I need to start to supporting Strive if he is going to continue to update it. He has a new project now that he is working on as well.

I went through the first 40 pages and I did not find what I was looking for, no way I'm going through all the 1006 pages, what is the unzipping password for the game?

The .zip file isn't password protected. Try using 7zip instead of Winrar it should do the trick.

I use Chrome and Mega and haven’t had an issue. Best of luck.

I have been doing something like this for quite some time now. I learned my lesson very quickly with a certain DC universe game.

I am perfectly happy subscribing on the months that Devs release content updates and think that others should do the same. Devs need to money to support their work, but paying something like 60 dollars (read as the same value as AAA game titles) for each 3 month cycle that nets an incremental update with maybe a couple of hours of playtime is baffling to me.

That said, I really do believe in ICSTOR. His updates lately have been incredibly satisfying, in my opinion. I look forward to paying him for his next update, if and when he ever releases it.

You mean from the main page download? There is none if that is your question

I use WinRar and have never had a problem.

normaly I don't either, but for some reasons on the main download page the MegaUp link ask for a password, usually, I use Mega and winrar, but since I don't have a prenium account, Firefox won't allow me to download the game because it's too big, it's saying that I need the Mega App to download it, worse thing is, I have the App, but it still won't allow me to do it, I prefer using Mega because with Firefox, it take less time to download compare to all the other link most the time, Mega with Chrome take way more time, also I wasn't able to download it correctly earlier, the download froze at 75%, when I restart the download, it said that I reached the time limit of the possible download, or something like that, I guess I need to wait another 24H to download it with Chrome, well less since it was somewhere in the afternoon that I tried to download it, if it fail again, I will simply use a different link

Won't someone think of the poor people like me - I came to the game recently, fell in love with the characters (especially the little sister Sara; when she got jealous of Lilly kissing me during Spin the Bottle she was adorable!).

Was super-hyped for an update - being called Milfy-City, I'd avoided this game as, although I'll bang my virtual 'Mom', my aunt, her friend and the senior gym-bunnies in a game, I didn't want to play a game only about MILFs... So to find such adorable characters as my sisters, so well written with flaws and imperfections was amazing.

Then... Nothing! I'd gotten the game after its last update - grrr!

Why was the game put on hold?

 

[freedom.call]

Why was the game put on hold?

Icstor has taken a break after a long time of producing games. Simple as that. For now.

 

[florameriadoc]

good news, I managed to download the game correctly and unzip it as well with Chrome and the link Mega.

A little piece of advice for those that might not have the game, perhaps it could be an idea to delete the link MegaUp to avoid
the same problem that I encounter, avoiding the link is also another idea, but I think deleting it to be sure is better

 

[Albator54]

Use the torrent link, it's faster and faster

 

[zero942]

the last update is the one in page 1 ?

 

[jkkjjkjkjjkkkjjl]

the last update is the one in page 1 ?

Yes. It's always in the thread title too.

I just downloaded the game off MegaUp and it had no password and worked fine. We never place passwords on zipped archives or on links. Must be some strange issue from your end.

Do you have an ad blocker? I've heard about issues with MegaUp and it downloading junk instead of the right file if you don't block ads.
