Right! There's no possible way that he stopped working on the game years ago, abused the f95 abandoned tag rules to make sure there was nothing official-ish on the internet to clue in potential investors on the real status of the game, then reappropriated all his GPU's into a crypto-mining rig for a little extra scratch on the side. Then got so arrogant that he didn't believe F95 would ever abandon tag him, so he procrastinated creating a new "progress" update. Then went into a panic seeing the tag and realizing people searching for his game would see "abandoned" in the top results, and did some quick calculations on how long it would take to make a quick 5 minute update around the renders Baron already made, which would get the tag removed, and figured it would take about a month to code. And he definitely doesn't plan on getting back on a 3 month "work" schedule once that tag is gone, which only involves writing a couple paragraphs of fiction every 12 weeks about why the game has been delayed again.

That scenario would just be to ridiculous to be true!
I really don't understand why you wrote all this to me, I know Icstor, I know that he is a greedy bastard. What I meant, if he was really working on the game all this time(if he was working on the game), and he has material, even small, why not release it now. Why postpone the release until July. Isn't that suspicious of his patrons, although, I see the growth of his patrons now, apparently not, That's all.

If by some miracle he does release on 14th July, it should still have a tag to clearly show that he's untrustworthy. Perhaps a variation of On Hold. His MO is clear at this point. Come close to a deadline of Abanadoned, release some news. He fucked it up this time, got the Abandoned tag and is now "working" to release an update.

ICSTOR is a chronic liar and, frankly, a dark stain on the name of developers who care and nuture their games and communities. He's had enough chances at this point. Until he's proven he'll regularly update there should be some form of warning in the form of tags on this thread.

That's just my opinion.
This is why Developers shouldn't get a penny until they've at least outputted a 1.0 game version.

If a developer is good (and ICSTOR is good), he should make money. Obviously, the push and pull with delays and postponements to an expiration date later, has exaggerated many of his patreons and created many memes at least here on F95zone against him.

Too many "Good" Developers sit on their mountains of cash, if anything them being payed more is a hindrance rather than a motivation. Money corrupts all in the end.

I made a post some while back asking why, after all this time, the game wasn't tagged "abandoned". The post was removed. Like the lab leak theory, are we now allowed to discuss it, since it's become so obvious as to be impossible to ignore?
It wasn't marked abandoned because he had given progress updates within the 3-month deadline, every time, until now. The first deadline he missed, and it was marked abandoned. If you're going to come up with a "theory", at least do some research on it....

Just a friendly reminder.
IC$TOR uses Octane Render to make Milky City. Lets say most Devs around here can deliver 300-500 renders per monthly update, rendering on Iray. This S C A M of a game isn't updated since 2019-12-02 !!!

Ah! Forgot to mention that Octane render up to 10-12 times faster than Iray!

Do the maths... ;)

is there any possibility that another game developer would take over this project and continue it or re-do it?
like what happened with Urban Demons?

Check back a few pages, the abandon tag will most likely be remove on July 14 when the new update drops... Emphasis on "Most Likely"
yeah i saw that, and i doubt he will be releasing anything, that's why hoping for the possiblity for another developer to take on this project
