whats dev history? u picked my interest
Dev's history has been going on with the very first version of this game to the point that it's impossible to fairly talk about the game without bringing Redamz up.
tl;dr - Game got popular, had a good chunk of stuff in the beginning, people started spending loads of money and dev got super lazy and did extremely scummy things including - deleting reviews, ignoring criticism and feedback, spending patreon money for his own entertainment and going on multiple 'breaks' while completely ignoring his self-imposed deadlines. Also the people who do support him tend to either have no idea what's going on and/or blindly defend his ass anyway.
When the game was first released, MGI got one public release demo with an earlier version of the purple slime scene that is present in the Steam release. Along with that were other 'demos' or showcases with different characters to varying quality (First shark girl scene that is identical to what it is today, an identical spider girl scene and two very, very scuffed cat girl and fox twins builds). MGI was even planned to have VR support. Hell he even made bonus builds specifically to divert from the game (Halloween builds in particular and more standalone ones that are now implemented in thread's version)
As the project got more traction and money started flowing in however, the progress of the game began to slow down. Release dates weren't being met, new stuff added little to no meaningful contribution to the game and other promised features (such as being able to properly customize MC) were (and in other cases, have) yet to be added. Mind you the release dates between builds would take at LEAST several months on end with very little additions as previously mentioned.
All the while Redamz was making it look like he really was working hard when, really, he was just taking multiple unmentioned breaks and just procrastinating, occasionally releasing individual scenes or two albeit very slowly. Trying to provide criticism and attention to Redamz' behavior or the game's progress (especially on Steam) would get it deleted (my thread got hit also) while he keeps insisting on working alone, most likely to hog all the money for himself.
Then 'recently' (before the thread got the [Onhold] Tag), people found out on Discord that the guy couldn't even be bothered to add content meant to be in the specific build (Veera scene, which is practically done, isn't even in the current version!) and was very busy spending money earned from patreon on stuff like Genshin. Then few months ago he declared that he needed a 'break' (despite going on multiple breaks) and that he'll 'probably' make a few posts (which so far he hasn't). This is the first break that got this thread the [Onhold] tag, and it wouldn't be surprising if this turned into an abandoned project with how much money the guy was making. All this happened over the course of several years, at least since the date of the OP in this thread. And all those (few builds) happened over the course of those same years too. Nowadays even his supporters turn on him while majority of the people have no idea what's going on and blindly defend him, or are just straight up unaware of the 'drama'. (Just look up a few posts to see an example of the blind defender)
