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

[boxedjack]

he never said it but you could tell that he got bored working on it especially the ending was rushed and not very thought through

I know, but he never admitted it and " completed" all of them.

He basically did in his latest Patreon post:

[...] I’ve learned one thing in the last few years of creating games but I’ll write about it later in the post. [...]
I’ve learned one thing in the last few years of making games. (Maybe too late…?) In order to finish the game as I want, without being burned out I can’t make more than 4-5 updates. It’s just who I am. [...]

I read this as him saying this isn't the first time he's been burned out on a project and didn't "finish the game as he wanted".

Or maybe he could just outline his plot ahead of time so he has an actual gameplan and then actually break things down and organize them. Maybe that's just me.

We were talking about his previous games.

We were talking about his previous games.

So am I. In the quote I posted, Icstor said that it took him years to realize that he looses his passion after 4-5 updates. Pretty clear to me he's talking about a pattern that encompasses his previous projects and not just Milfy City.

Yes, but he never admitted it back then and some people just accepted the half-ass complete games but now it's clear to everyone and I'm wondering if it causes some kind of a backlash for his next game.

Hard crushing on Caroline :3

Regarding the patreon post...

 

[Profound_Madman]

He has been doing the same since at least his two previous games (haven't played the others) and gets rewarded with increased patrons support.

I don't see him changing as long people continue supporting his predatory behaviour.

Agreed

 

[Profound_Madman]

I dunno about that. Since the announcement he has gained about 400 patrons.

And THAT is the problem

How you doin' bois? Been a while since I visited this thread. Could someone give an update on what's going on with Icstor and the game?

 

[DiddlerGames]

And THAT is the problem

I agree wholeheartedly, but it seems this is what patrons want. Someone who never finishes a project the way he was showing he was going to and instead someone that just makes grandiose statements about what he is going to do. Look at the new game announcement he made. Already has his coder working on "Interesting mechanics". I would bet dollars to dimes they are gonna be just as bad as the money making ones he had in Milfy City.

Someone please track him down by IP address and take a dump on his lawn. K thx.

Anyone got a physical address for him yet? I have a newspaper ready and a turtle head poking out.

Jesus Christ, starts a new game while neglecting the other meanwhile, simps will flock to it.

i would have figured this coronavirus would have given him more free time since he cant leave his home anyway.. i cant see you getting a better break from anything ..

I don't think he has a job outside of patreon but some people still work during the lockdown so...

But well, he's gonna rush his ending AGAIN.

 

[viktheone]

So he announced a new game?

 

[Bexhettt]

Did he post any spoiler from 0.7 yet?

 

[Oriandu]

Did he post any spoiler from 0.7 yet?

Of course not. It is highly unlikely he's actually done any work on it in months.

 

[Evangelion-01]

Did he post any spoiler from 0.7 yet?

Of course not. It is highly unlikely he's actually done any work on it in months.

It was already announced that Version 0.7 is dead and buried...
He'll head right to 0.9 and 1.0, which is supposed to tie all open ends for the Characters that already have an unfinished storyline while working on a New Game entirely

 

[Dictateur]

So he announced a new game?

Not yet, he said that he's gonna do two big updates to finish all storylines and finish the game.
