Except that not what he intends per his own literal word.

Perhaps get the context before calling everyone "crybabies".
1) I'm not calling everyone crybabies. I'm calling the crybabies the crybabies
2) You really should reread his post. He enjoyed making porn games, but he was feeling guilt for doing it to the point of hating it. He decided it was more important to focus more on his family... That's the reason he stepped away. So now he's thinking about switching to SFW games or at the very least non-incest games. It's pretty simple to understand.

Frankly, I don't care if he quit to pursue a dream of becoming a sky-diving drag queen... His reasons for quitting are his own and we should respect that. I think it's pretty weak if you can't stop being bitter to do at least that much. Get over it.

Thanks for the link to the post I couldn't find. Now it makes a lot more sense to me, than with what people have been arguing about. Well, after reading that... He should just quit altogether. There's no reason for him to keep pushing, if it only hurts him in the process. Not surprising to hear about his depression, if he got inspiration for his games from real life events. That's where he screwed up, but I'm not judging. Just saying that he pushed himself into this pit of self loathing and despair, by using his own painful experiences, and relieving them all the time in the games he tried creating. Not a good idea. If he wants to heal he should quit. No shame in it, and, well, simply put it's his business and nobody else's. I hope he finds some peace after all of this.

Hey everyone,

I've been putting off writing this post for a while, but after seeing all your messages, I felt like it was time to share what's been going on. As you know, I've always tried to be upfront with you, but given what I do for a living, I've kept my personal life separate from this space. However, to explain where I'm at now, I'm going to have to open up a bit more than usual.

When I started this page back in 2018, I was a single guy who never imagined having a serious relationship or a family. But a lot has changed since then—I started a family and now have two kids, who are honestly the light of my life. But they're also the reason I've stepped away.

For a while now, I've been struggling with a kind of depression. I couldn't look my children in the eye knowing what my games promote. I felt ashamed, even disgusted with myself. What I thought was my “dream job” had turned into something I hated. That's why I decided to quit.

In the past few months, I've been trying to pivot to making SFW games. But since I've been doing this for so long, my mind kept going back to ideas that were... well, sexual. That's what I've always been good at. I thought I could finish No More Money, start something new, and maybe ask you guys how you'd feel about removing a certain taboo element that shows up in all my games. But honestly, I can't do it anymore.

I can't continue with No More Money. It's been breaking me to keep working on it, and I just can't do it anymore. I know you guys enjoy these games, and there's nothing wrong with that, but for me, it's personal. I'm not really a writer. I draw inspiration from real people in my life. Most of the characters you love from No More Secrets and No More Money were inspired by ex-girlfriends, friends, people I know, so it's hard for me to separate those feelings when I'm writing. I didn't value family before, so making taboo games was easy before, but I can't do that anymore.

So, I need to know where you all stand. I know walking away from another game is going to hurt my reputation, and I'm ready to face the consequences of that. But if I were to start No More Homework without the “household” taboo, would you still be interested in the game? I really need to know what kind of adult visual novels you're into now and how you feel about this shift.

I've included a few possible answers. Based on your responses, I'll decide what I'll do in the future.

Thanks for understanding and I apologize for everything.

damn, I use F95 checker to keep my games organized, what a fantastic mod, anyway out of 87 games that I have installed 10 are abondoned, and many of the abandoned games are not low rated games, they are very popular and this is what worries me, you install these games because they are very very good and then they get abandoned, it's heartbreaking, I have several memberships and thankfully none of them are abandoned yet, I know many things can affect the developers but I wish there was a way that maybe another developer that is commited to finish some of these abandoned games? I have Tainted Heritage-weird shit is going to happen. stray Incubus, Stormside, no more money. Juno's Task, In a scent, dead moon survival, the spellbook and a shot in the dark is on hold probably going to be abandoned, do I keep these games with the hope that someone will finish them or should I delete them? any opinion would be appreciate

I looked forward to this game's updates more than almost any other and wish I could know the ending to the story.
I certainly can respect your position and can't say that I wouldn't make the same decision, in your shoes.
I don't only play "household" games and believe that you could do well in other areas.
I also am able to separate my family from this environment. I do enjoy family games, but I don't think about the women in my family like that. I can see how challenging that could be as the writer and game maker. As the reader, I'm only thinking about it while I'm engaged in the game, but as the creator, you think about it constantly as you work to advance the story and produce a quality product.
I compare these games to the adult movie industry and plenty of those do well without family ties (and have for ages).

Good luck with whatever you decide to do. You have a lot of talent and I hope you continue to make products for this community.

I'm sad that the game was abandoned, because while the game was NSFW, the characters had personality and link with the MC. Sure it had sex, but it wasn't a "depraved" game by any means, if that makes any sense. Sex was complementary to reinforce the link of the MC with the girls, not the opposite. It seemed "natural" in a way, besides the usual clichés.

Still, I understand the dev's view. I can't say I'm not disapointed, because I definitely am, but I understand it. Hopefully in the future we still have the end of this one, even if the sexual content is lower and ends up being a slowburn game.

About wether I would follow the new game being SFW... what made me follow No More Money wasn't the sex, but the actual mix of everything as I said above. So if the game has those tools, who knows... Although it would give me a bit sour taste playing another game after one abandoned, wether it is or not NSFW, but this is just me.

Best wishes for the dev's family, and also for the depression. That besides all should be the main focus.

I'm hoping he ends up looking into if he could just sell/give away the rights to another dev/person that's qualified enough to keep the game going, or at the very least make some kind of ending that people could enjoy.

Game is a banger and it would really suck if he did just end up leaving it in the pit of abandonment like this.

Not that he was the best, but he still had faith, but after such a concession with the people, let him go...: because when he was developing the game, he did not notice the development of incest with his sister and mother in the game, and that's why his conscience did not torment him for having sex with his sister and mother! I would like to ask, were you not ashamed of this when developing an imaginary relationship with your sister and mother? And when the alleged daughter appeared, he became so ashamed and embarrassed to make such a plot, which, by the way, in the game has nothing close to the development of father and daughter. These are all lies, excuses, and unwillingness to finish this project! After such a concession with the public, he still hopes that he will have confidence in the new project, but he does not expect the support of the public! And by the way, it is bad that this underdeveloper will not see my message, I would ask after his words how you are going to develop the next porn project in front of the child, is he not ashamed to do it, what kind of father are you when you do such things! You remained a clown in the public eye after such statements and this lie about moral reasons, not a developer. Go with shame and don't show up with your unfinished projects.
