The only 'direction' this game has is heading directly towards the nearest fucking dumpster, my guy. Are you being ironic or do you genuinely believe this game is going anywhere AFTER the dev said it's going on 'hiatus'?
Abandoned, also you can just use the search function to find your answer since this has been answered multiple times before
We're talking 2 gangbang session (remake) of Saria, to the point of mind broken each time, the culprit(Vel) laughing as he count his unsavoury gotten money he got from Saria supporters, and lastly, Saria abadoned in a trash can level
Most complete is version is 15, you can also find a fan continuation here.
Many people wish this game's older version was still being updated. Sadly, this dev has proven multiple times that he is a weird person who will make games where his main audience is "himself", while throwing tantrums when he sees that people don't approve his changes (this whole game's fiasco is because of that). His newest game is also shit that barely works, just like how Saria Reclaimed also became a buggy, poorly thought out mess once he changed the game to a VN with card mechanics.
The new game is out? Well, not surprised to hear it's a buggy mess. Somehow he's unable to playtest his own shit, or maybe he does and releases it in a terrible state anyway. Pretty much was the case for Saria aswell, and only got worse and worse.
Yeah, it's called Cogito Line. He released the very first version in early April, it's filled with bugs to the point of progressively becoming less working the more you play it (I'm not joking, the game progressively gets slower and laggier the more you play it until it just softlocks) and he's been silent ever since. Maybe he's working on a new update, maybe not, in the end he's still a very abrasive person that, as I said before, somehow makes games for himself but readily accepts money every month and gets pissed when people critique his works.
As a game dev myself, this fucking kills me to hear. Making changes because you consider yourself the audience for the game is beyond stupid, its like me creating a song about how fucking amazing and hot I am then getting pissed when people complain about the song, having temper tantrums and reposting the same song disrespecting and calling out people who didn't like the original song, resulting in an even worse song which more people hate.
To be fair, I don't think that making a game for yourself is strictly bad, the biggest problem is Velminth's reaction to criticism, if I have to single out a reason.
Yooo that's the dev who made the lewd labyrinth game, I didn't know he was making another. Cheers for that.
Yep, there isn't anything wrong with creating things for yourself and showing it to other people, but it's entirely different when you insult other people that criticise your creation. From the single moment you showed it to other people, you already open yourself up to be judged, whether you like it or not. Of course, if the criticism is just nonsense, then you can ignore or insult the critic, but that's not the case with Vel.
