VN Ren'Py Abandoned My Inheritance [v0.1] [Mr. Hex]

[jazz154]

his patreon doesn't get alot of support so he lost motivation to continue this game..

If money is his only motivation then he should just give up. You also need passion for the project to make it successful. It's his first project, you just can't start average looking game and expect it to become popular right away. There are hundreds of great looking games that died shortly after first few releases, so don't go in expecting easy money.

He has passion. But he can't do this without support. Making game is not easy. 1 image takes several hours to render not to mention the time spent to place the object in the scene and also the assets is not cheap. A short gameplay of 10 minutes may take 2-3 weeks to complete for a weak cpu. Not to mention the electricity bills..

But i am just saying that if you can afford and wants to see more of this game. You can support him. If you don't, its still ok.

Some problems with that:
1. Why would he go for making game that will be hardest to make? Why not go for real porn for example?
2. He has day job, doesn't he? Why won't he invest into himself to make it go more smoothly? Why does he expect other people to finance some random person on the internet? There are devs with day jobs that are treating developing game as a hobby until it can let them go full time on it.
3. Expecting someone to throw money at you when all you are bringing is mediocore product is weird. Especially so when you are total nobody with nothing else to your name other than this first release. Decisions he made make me believe that he is incapable of developing this game. Not investing in his own hardware shows that he doesn't have faith into this project and is not willing to take risk. Going for renders that take 3 weeks to make 10 minutes of gameplay shows that he has very poor decision making skills. Going radio silent right after first release shows his poor communication skills and lack of care for project.

It looks to me that he bite more than he can chew, not really that uncommon for first time devs. But you asking for money with that reasoning is laughable, I would sooner burn my money than throw it at this failure. At least it would be more entertaining that way.

I don't have a problem with a friend asking for help for a friend. But it's a pirate site so go ahead and get your enjoyment out of burning all the piles of money you have jazz154

That's not how it works.

Considering there are hundreds of devs all vying to get our money it gets spread a bit thin.

Out of those hundreds of devs you'll find a handful will make good money from it, a few dozen may be able to make a living. The rest will earn between nothing and 1k a month.

Out of all those devs that are making a living from this, very few of those did so with their first game.

Anyone looking to make adult games and make money is going to fail. There are more and more devs appearing every day but the amount of paying players is barely increasing and those that are around already have games they support.

If a dev wants to make money it's going to take a lot more than a 0.1 and a tale of hardship.

It's the second year of a global pandemic, we're all going through hardships.

If money is his only motivation and not making any with a content bare 0.1 kills that motivation then this isn't the business for him.

With a lot of games getting abandoned, the lack of disposable income and people already having games they support someone expecting money with this is aiming way too high.

Tell him to finish a game first then people may take notice, if he doesn't have it in him then tell him to quit and find a different career.

Nah, he is just an acquitance of mine. He dissapeared after releasing his game. I am not trying to help or judge anything. I am just trying to tell you guys that if you want to see more of his game. Maybe some support for him will help him continue to story.
I am saying this because many of you seems to want to see more of his story. Peace.
I am just neutral. I came to comment seems you guys are wondering, not asking for help. I barely know him.

After reading this chat, I guess it's safe to assume this is abandoned

Yep, this was dead on arrival.

Dev wanted money for a concept and didn't get it.

Ah, shame.
Its hard to find well rendered big tiddy goth girls. We definitely need more in games.
