Point is not that they did n othing, or there is no devs INFINETLY worse than them(FF, doggy bones, jason, feck the hack, list goes on). Point is that the game is solid, people give them suitable amount of money to continue to working on it comfortably, and end result instead of progressing forward development is progressing to the left, then to the right and then jump in the nearest gutter. Gutter i guess is better than a dumpster near crackden where usualy western ero game projects end up, but still.
frr, i've been checking in on this game once every few months since like 2020 or something and they've added ALOTT
In the Patreon post for v0.21.000, it said "we are changing the version naming convention to accelerate the numbering and work towards using "v1.00" for the official Act 1 release". Version 0.24 was essentially Version 0.99. The team shared all of its progress with patrons the entire time, because that's what they paid for, obviously. There wasn't anything being held back or kept secret for the Act 1 release.
Yeah they went too overboard with Bates. I really hope they either tone down the ambition with the next boss or just don't add one entirely... More enemies like the Bull guy, strong, high HP and defense, work just fine for a game like this.
They're tweaking out like this is a football game or sumn. It is NOT that serious.
I actually preferred the more angry looking Bates, he looks kind of derp now. Feel like he was going to original be more aggressive but they moved away from the rape vibes for steam version
Its basicaly with every single hentai game that has patreon, starts with rape, mind-control, corruption etc, gets smallest peace of popularity and someone instantly runs to patreon admins crying "wolves", and everything gets switched to consensual handholding. Steam greenlight is more of a random on this subject, there are plenty ero games with "forced" sex that is being soled on it.
Subscribestar doesn't seem to have that problem-Grove and Prowler seem to be doing fine. And they're very rapey and mindcontrolly. And corruption.
It depends on what you are actually selling on Paytreon. Non-con stuff is not allowed to be sold on it, BUT you can redirect people to buy it somewhere else. What some people do it's just upload everything in a Discord server or in itchio and use Paytreon to redirect them there. As long as the product itself it's not in Paytreon, they are fine.
Substar is usually more lax about that kind of stuff, to the point of even allowing cub art sometimes. Grove and Prowler have no problems because they sell the game only on itchio, where that kind of stuff is allowed. They just use substar to promote it.
