dose he seriously believe he can finish this til this year and make another game next year?
it really sound like scam
Last week he wrote that in the best circimstances he is able to release Judys update this year. Obiously he is not able to complete the game (30% approximately) neither this nor the nexy year. He also offered not to donate him, saying something regarding hidden gems among other deelopers who need financial support.

rofl .. ppl. seriously ... first posting after first release was 2018 ......
now go take a look into the changelogs at page 1 ....
do the math .......
and now come back telling me
that in 3 years.. he wasent able to finish a fucking renpy game........we are going into year 4 .....
tell me that this is not a scamm like 99% of all games arround here...
this is a typically scam sh1t with porn games.....they need new hardware, they work attrackt paetrons grab the money and piss off ...
there is comming a new blockbuster game ? oww they come back to work again get some money from donors and paetrons too.. they piss off again ...
99% of ALL devs of such games here are like this ...

best example check the game. girl house ....
and check the game being a dick ..than tell me the differenz ...
in this area of por games, ther are just 5 to 6 games who actually deserv paetrons and donors .....because this admins did a great job and workd and finished a game. ....

check how many games, unfinihsed games land on steam ... and how much they cost....they want 40 or 50 euro for a fucking update with 200 renders and 1000 words ......

so tell me is the dev of this game different to all others ?

ICSTOR wants to pretend it is, but we all know the truth.
Development is "supposedly" going on..... That's about it. Very infrequent updates with minimum communication and repeatedly missed deadlines with weak excuses (It gives off that "crowdfunding scam vibe" IMHO). These days it's mosty interesting as an example on how not too produce games and the total PR collapse of a previously loved producer (somehow he's is still making money though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). It's a sad story really...
Thank you guys for very detailed answers.

If there's one lesson we should learn from all this, hobbyist devs are the most reliable, not to mention being decent people in general. Making something the creator loves the way they want to for a small audience they genuinely appreciate and personally communicate with beats overhyped ren'py blockbusters any day.
NLT proves otherwise

Guys, is this project still alive?
The dev is keeping it alive through 'promises' that over the last two years he hasn't kept. I will admit, the game is good enough to play for the few hours of entertainment it gives, if you can deal with wonky writing in places and unfinished routes.

It's not a bad game, the problem is, the finished game will probably and most likely never see the light of day.

"I wonder when the next version of DefinitelyNotRelatedPeopleFucking comes out on patreon." Fucking lol.

I came for Caroline, I stayed for Icstor's dialogue.
I read that and instantly came here to search it, hoping someone would have said:
"I wonder when the next version of Milfy City comes out on Patreon. That game feels like it's on v0.6e for YEARS now!"

Yes.

Also unrelated but just something I've observed about hobby people, sometimes, people need corporate and the board breathing down their necks to be motivated enough to even do any actual works, structure, discipline, set work hours and responsive teams, that's how you make people happy, hobby can only go so far without structure.

The reason why I no longer work pro bono for my friends' new businesses, they never stick to deadlines and they think that staying at work for 14 hours a day for months is the magical recipe that makes a successful business.

Imagine how many people would click on this thread, and then through to others, if they were to mark this one correctly.
Hey Zen, even if they mark it as Abandoned, I personally don't think it'll stop everyone from coming here, especially if they get the game from another site other than this one. Speaking for myself, I had NO IDEA this site even existed until much earlier this year when I initially registered. I mean I know why I did isn't what other people would do, but I still see new names appearing in this thread every day.

I mean the Tag would probably keep at least 80% of the new players away, but who knows, stranger things have happened. I personally enjoy this thread as I like to help the new players or at least tell them what the deal is. I'm probably in this thread more than anyone who used to hang around here, as most have moved on.

Maybe I'm just speaking for myself and talking out of my ass. Wouldn't be the first time my friend. I mean, eventually it'll die out, but being the most popular thread on this site, I don't see it or the Staff/Admins/mods whacking it out anytime soon, but that's just from my perspective.

They need to knock off the BS and ban this scammer for life and slap a permanent abandoned tag on it.
He's just sitting back and laughing at all of the people who are supporting his scam.

I think you are missing my point...

I have no problem with this thread getting traffic, as this WAS one of the most anticipated, and then popular, games of the genre for a while. New members SHOULD read this thread to discover that popularity is not reliability, though.

Those who come to the site for this thread specifically will see what it has to offer (a dead end via the tag), and would likely seek out other threads/games that offer them whatever they wanted from this game. (--EDIT/afterthought - Why would the staff/admins believe those users would just move on from the SITE completely, with so many other games available? It's not like other sites can offer an update to this game either...) Which would provide even more clicks to the site, and the ad revenue that goes with it.

I'm merely saying that honesty is the best policy, and would probably generate more clicks when those viewers move on to other threads.
