He was really tired when he finished that update. He went several days without sleep at that time
Every developer uses some sort of fucking version control. In a typical day they should commit 5-15 changes. That's 5-15 "backups" made EVERY SINGLE WORK DAY. Sorry, but as a developer working ~10 years in unity, nosy's excuses are BS, he has either no idea what he's doing or is straight up lying.
From the technical perspective this project has several issues:
- he once provided code snippet, cause he found a bug in it, and was happy to share it. It was abysmal. It showcased complete lack of understanding of how to properly utilize unity features in his code.
- somewhere around July his choice of words suggested he's not using any version control for this project and is thinking of starting to do it.
Because of that I stopped supporting him on patreon, this project will take AGES to develop based just on that.
Could you all stop whining and/or harassing nosy?
If you like the game and want to see more cool, gotta be patient guess.
If you don't want to support him because you think he is too slow or whatever else, also cool, but stop making it a witch hunt.
You are turning what could be a passion project, into something he might not even want to touch anymore (for a good reason imo). How about keeping your opinion to yourself or at least making it factual feedback and stop being overly emotional, because it wont bring any positive results.
And for anyone thinking about writing me a book of why i am so wrong, feel free to express yourself, but i won't lose any sleep over it.

What does this change? There are multiple projects on this site that are going through infinite cycles of refactors. Even Nosy states that he "improves" already existing mechanics in each release. All of the problems with the game mechanics and systems that he encounters during development are caused by his poor knowledge of the engine. Add to that the scope creep mentioned pages ago and you have the current state of the project.
I'm not whining about the long wait time between the releases, I'm simply questioning Nosy's coding and project management skills based on the results of his work.
The story itself is great, AI art quality really good. In my perspective he either needs a real team with PM, additional programmers & QA to develop his vision or we will be here really long time.
Precisely what I mean.
You don't expect a newbie to be able to master something in a short amount of time.
wtf is this political chat in a porn game
Excuse me, could someone tell me what's going on with the new update? Since I'm not subscribed to Patreon, I don't know what the post says.

Thats true, IIRC the My Emily dev also quit because of too much pressure to keep providing content and burnt out, Id rather the same not happen here.
Dont get me wrong Nosy's excuse is lame and not knowing how to do version control is an embarrassing mistake for even a rookie dev. But ultimately were not entitled to his labour, especially when we arent paying shit and just downloading pirated versions. Patreons have a valid ground to get frustrated but us pirates going "Hurry up and work harder on the game were gonna take and not pay you for" is kinda cringe.
Nobody forced you to start an unfinished project. Any time you go into an unfinished game here you should be ready for slow ass progress. Most of these games are amateur projects made by inexperienced devs outside of their work hours, sometimes they are scams but even when theyre not its very rare to get devs who can provide quick and consistent progress. Either accept that or use the filters to only find completed games.
f95 lesson 47: When delivering files to clients, it is good practice to arbitrarily rename half of them from "xxx.exe" to "[VIRUS] xxx.exe". They need to learn there is no room for peace of mind with technology.
The "My pc crashed and i lost data" is the new "My dog ate my home work" 
Got you, but the fact that the game itself has a year, doesn't necessarily mean that he has no/low experience as a programmer.
Unity doesn't use anything fancy (C#), but its low entry barrier often encourages developers to adopt poor practices that inevitably pile up later. The amount of questionable solutions suggested in the web as "valid" for unity is absurd. Combined with the usage of third-party tools/plugins that aren't entirely suited for his project will extend the release cycle.
I might have some assumptions what tool he's using that caused the references to be wiped and if I'm correct then oh boy, it will repeat. Let's say that the 2-3 months release cycle for a HUGE update is valid. What isn't so normal are the constant excuses, lack of communication with his community, and especially stating that he wasn't eating/sleeping because he was working.

The problem is the moment you subscribe and are present on his discord, you are basically not allowed to say anything bad. Everyone will eat you alive.
I wouldn't agree with all of the posts in this thread, but most of the crashouts are valid - you can't express the critisism towards the way Nosy develops his project anywhere else.
I'm personally done with constant support but I tend to resub ocassionaly when the update eventually drops. In the end of the day it's his work, his project and he will do whatever he wants with it.
yeah, like who doesn't back up at least everyday if not multiple times a day?The "My pc crashed and i lost data" is the new "My dog ate my home work"

Absolutely.
I work for a project that was clearly not designed to last this long given the sheer amount of poor practices in the code. Implementing quality in a project is long and tedious but you can really see its benefits in the long run. Even in only a year, the difference is clearly visible.
And the worst part is when you understand this midway : because there is already too much content so that you cannot restart from scratch, but when you try to upgrade something you are slowed by the lack of quality in the rest of the project...
Good luck to the dev, and I hope he sees the positive posts between the impatient ones (be it there or on Patreon).
