VN Ren'Py Radiant [v0.6.3] [RK Studios]

[ThorinKing]

I'm so far out of the loop, and at this point I'm a tad afraid to ask about being brought up to speed. Out of morbid curiosity, what exactly is going on with this title, as there seems to be a bit of friction between the two devs? (At least according to the previous couple of pages...)

Summary: everybody, including two of the dogs, died; Dammed got really sick and depressed; many people doubt the veracity of the "reasons" because they sound a little too tragic and because he was seen being very active on gaming boards; all the while, he never turned off billing, for even a moment, and kept pushing deadlines without any real communication until the deadlines passed; Alorth sent a note saying he was basically setting some time limits on Dammed to get things done because he was tired of the damage to his reputation for Dammed's actions (or lack thereof). There is now supposedly a set of two deadlines, one to finish Ep 5 and one to release Ep 6. Bets are being taken on whether either deadline will be met and, if missed, what the excuse will be (another dog, another relative, appendicitis, etc.).

One week later, still not a single word posted on Patreon, like he does not want to comit to these deadlines in front of his supporters...

Which is far more telling than conversations on Discord.

My favorite IRL book author recently retired because of "health issues," yeah. I didn't really understand at first how you could get too ill to either type or dictate, but it turned out what the mad was dementia. Ungood.

Except I doubt too many AVN creators are that age, so it doesn't really fly. Does anyone actually believe SirD is an old man and thus has dementia?? And please don't say "derp, but young people get dementia too". It's certainly not the norm, and if we're going by that, AVN developers seem to be exclusively targeted by the wrath of the gods.

Dementia would be an odd malady for a 34 year old guy (see the Discord caps posted the other day). Unless there's also significant substance abuse, this shouldn't be the issue.

 

[1tomadeira]

well if people actually read his discord people would know that he was dealing with a lot that he didn't want to make public

Dammed when he wrote that:

Can't wait for what he was dealing all this time btw, after all he couldn't finish Polarity but he's still receiving money for that. Poor guy.

Would it be nice for an update on Patreon/SS? -- sure.

IMO - that does not really matter.

Either Alorth is going to stick to his guns on the March 2024 deadline or he is not.

I believe he is since his reputation is being damaged by association with Radiant.

We'll know whether or not Radiant has a decent chance at making a comeback based on content release and all indications are that this is in the hands of Sir Damned.

Alorth made the declaration on Discord and it's been screenshotted and posted here.

Now we can go enjoy other content on F95 and see what happens as a few more months roll by.

I'm off to enjoy another run through Once in a Lifetime - great humor and hot ladies - life is good!

Cheers!!

You'd have a great career as a White House spokesperson...

 

[Squark ⚧❤️]

Alorth has said (somewhat recently) that if nothing materialises this side of Christmas, he will leave the project.
I guess he got just as sick and tired of the Hunchback of NothinDoin' as many of us here.

 

[Rune H]

That right. We are all sick and tired of him.

 

[ThorinKing]

But does he check enough intersectional boxes? That's the primary qualification.

 

[Impalord]

Aha, next one in line to be "abandoned".

No surprise there. And yet there are still people believing showering them with money.
I should start a never finishing project with some kinky pictures too.

You do that. Post the link to your patreon page here once you started.

Go ahead.

It's funny because some people think it's easy to make money on Patreon. There are some devs here who make less than the minimum wage on Patreon. which makes the whole development situation of this game a little more annoying. they found an audience but they have not known how to exploit it.

 

[jaw1986baby]

You do that. Post the link to your patreon page here once you started.

Right?


This is a path open to anyone and everyone here. If you think you can do better (or at least write SOMETHING out) go for it. Devs are not a special group with exclusive membership, if you make something you are a dev, and you can submit it to F95.

Simple as. Most of us honestly encourage the effort. But to think you will get paid, you better find the God of Luck and suck his dick because it is OFTEN a crap shoot.





PEACE
