Just not an abandoned game but someone attempted to "remake" Ced's game and I don't see anywhere mention of Ced in that game's thread.

Man feeling so disappointed. I played this again the last few days and just came to see its stiff abandoned.
Anyone know what happened? Why did the author abandon it?

Why would they mention the name of a dev to a compleyely different game?
That game is nothing at all like this.
That's like saying Call of Duty is a remake of Tetris. The only thing they have in common is they are both games.

Yeah and I still can't get over the fact that on the love path, the sex with the daughter most definitely would have happened in the next update...which never came.
But it's interesting that this had consistent updates and then just got abandoned.
How about he passed away? Due to serious health problems.

It could be that I've missed something, but I honestly think that's everybody's question. Unless I'm confusing CedSense with someone else, I believe it was just that suddenly he wasn't around anymore. There are a few devs that have done that, though, so I might be misremembering.

Curious to see this thread necro'd, it has been dead for 3 years and was mediocre at best even back then..
You can assume that Ced, like 90%+ of hobby devs, didn't see the return they hoped for and decided to do something more worthwhile with their time, shouldn't be a mystery...

At the time his player base was quite healthy and picking up momentum.
He was on track to be making a good chunk of money from it.
It's one of the reasons it makes it so strange he stopped. It was profitable and would have been more so if he'd carried on so he gave up on money.
Do you have access to info I'm not..? From what I can find they seamed to top out at just below 300 subs generating slightly below $1500.. not great stats if you're out to make a living.
If I remember correctly they where two splitting the work and pressumably the earnings.
It might have had nothing to do with it but if they wanted to make a career out of this those stats would explain the departure..

Guys, if you'll would read the rest of the thread, everything would be clear but this is the short version:
CedSense had a fairly stable and devoted but growing fanbase and, let's say, medium income from this game, around $1500 / month. As far as I know, he didn't complain about this.
He was working together with Celeste, no idea about their business arrangements.
CenSense generally released updates according to his schedule.
CedSense quite abruptly disappeared, citing "health reasons".
CedSense paused Patreon most of the time, so existing Patreons were generally not charged for monthly updates that they did not receive.
An attempt of a remake was made recently, CedSense broke radio silence to ask them to stop development. This may indicate that he may actually want to continue development himself at some point, or that he simply wants to let his legacy rest.

not much of a legacy, in this case.
