“We aren’t able to make the saves transferable”
On that note...how the hell do you make save games untransferrable between versions that are literaly identical besides having like what, an extra crouch function, 1-2 animations and ...no extra items as far as I know?

Like bro you could just slap everything into a 2D array, write it to a file and you've got a save file that can store infinite amounts of everything as long as you don't add new categories, nevermind that you can add more possible saved values to the end of it to patch a new quick progression item into the game...

And nevermind using an actual save file format that is almost impossible to go wrong with...

What the fuck, these guys spend 0 effort doing anything

In what appears to be a rare act of defense on their part, I think they've decided to make something weird with save structure. I haven't looked at it now but there's a chance that they've either experimented with it (thus it's a change of the standard) or they've made a "bloating" save scheme.

By bloating I mean the kind of save that is holding most or ALL of the informations from the game. It is somewhat justified in games like The Elder Scrolls, where you have a lot of interactions with objects to track...
There are also games like Bedlam's No Haven that was made in RAGS. RAGS is infamous for making even something as simple as file's name change to be a reason for incompatibility of the saves.

I personally think it's unlikely to be the second variant (I'll lose sanity and my faith in humanity if they are that screwed up in the head). It is their weird experimentation with save structure, maybe some address changes. Still, it could be done better and I see it as a yellow flag in the sea of red.

Ah yes, the old "reinventing the wheel" scheme that CS students pull on their year 1 university projects...
If that really is the case, these devs don't deserve a fkin dime
It's one thing to modify your work environment to optimise specificaly for your use case for better performance but this has nothing to do with that

Eromancer hit me with a DMCA for leaking their soundtrack. Mega, GoFile & Drive were hit. Soundcloud doesn't seem to care.

I hope these accounts (especially the gmail) weren't associated with you in private manner (like, they weren't used for something crucial)? My friend recently lost quite a lot of shit because he got hit by automatic filter from gdrive for two loli references (nothing even suggestive, chibi stuff) that he got from his artist-girlfriend, while other lost 50gb of hgames archive. It took a while to reverse the damages.

What do you mean ?
Dude got baited on those renders that eromancer is throwing out on twitter all the time about Tifa. No way to include her in game because it's a licensed character.

For now, Eromancer is messing around with a new discovery - AI generated art - and is throwing a fuckton of it on twitter as well...I guess anything is worth doing except actual work xD
