That's obvious nonsense. Eternum, Cosy Cafe and Pale Carnations are examples of HS games that are thriving and seem to be in no danger of being abandoned. Once in a Lifetime (Eternum's predecessor), AlwaysFan (similar to Pale Carnations), Now & Then (road movie during zombie apocalypse), Solvalley School (sitcom) and My Bully is my Lover (harem with romantic couple story) are examples of large finished HS games. (Solvalley School and My Bully is my Lover have proper endings. They are just not officially finished yet as the developer wants the option to add additional endings.)

These are some of the best and longest of all Ren'Py AVNs. In terms of quality, Stormside fits precisely into this list. However, the developer made it clear from the beginning that he isn't motivated by money but by an artistic vision that involves immense branching and was always likely to lead to slow development. Maybe the negative feedback from people who were not prepared to accept that combined with time constraints and the practical difficulties of branching ate too much motivation. I hope there will be a miracle and the developer turns up again to continue the game anyway. It would be a shame if not, though of course what we already have is extremely valuable anyway. Stormside will always be one of my favorite games, even if the current version is all we will ever get.
don't you put any bad juju on cosy cafe.

Such a shame. I've recently been going on a bit of a binge on a bunch of games on this site and honestly? Stormside is one of, if not the best one. Likeable characters, good humor, good writing, great accessibility options, and amazing animations. There was so much potential and promise that if he came back to continue I would sub to the Patreon right away. I hope this game has a future.

Yeah, unfortunately anyone could see it coming. It was too ambitious of a project, but the subscriber count didn't keep up (even though it was decently significant and was on the rise).

Yea when i was a supporter on patreon there was time he was up over 750 bout year and half before he disappeared. I think time between updates is what ended up costing him.

There's no threesome or anal because the game hadn't reached that point yet when its development was stopped. But here is the list of (breathtaking) vaginal intercourse scenes in the gallery:
  • Taking Riley's virginity (Was that so hard to find?)
  • Jade's bargaining chip
  • Desperate Riley #1
  • Desperate Riley #2
  • Sasha's abandoned virginity (Was that so hard to find?)
The game branches very strongly, which is the whole point of its existence from the developer's view, so maybe you are not guaranteed to see any of these scenes on a random playthrough. Install the mod and unlock everything. Then set the filter to "M/F", and these scenes will be #12 on page 1 and #1, #3, #4, #14 on page 2 of the video gallery.

Of course there is also no end of very hot oral scenes and finger/dildo penetration scenes.

How am I supposed to use the gallery unlocker?
Practically all mods for Ren'Py games work the same way. Unpack while the game is not running.
  • If the result contains a single subfolder game, copy that subfolder into the game's main folder, where a subfolder of the same name is already located, and confirm that you want to merge the two game folders and, if necessary, that you want to overwrite files.
  • If, instead, the result contains a single file (in this case Unlocker.rpy), just move or copy it into the game's game subfolder.

For most of us, such a subscription is real money. But for the kind of person who may spontaneously decide to fly to the other end of the world in their private plane, in order to spend 24 hours on their yacht -- it isn't. If I had monthly payments of 10 cents to the Stormside developer set up, it would take several years of inactivity for me to cancel that. If you are rich enough, it's the same with 100 dollars/euros. I am sure those who are still subscribed include at least some such cases. And some patrons may know the developer personally, or may otherwise have developed a (perhaps one-sided) personal relationship with the developer. Generally speaking, canceling a subscription can feel like hitting someone when they are down, even if it's not justified to feel that way.

yep, i also a paid member for quite sometimes until they start to show bad sign all over.

the game truly had the potential to be one of its kind. but alas, there are no real consequence for an indie and a patreon one at that to basically ghosted and leeching off their patron, thus many did the same. the least thing they can do (and should do) are to turn off the membership but almost all of them never do that.

one can argue, they can basically go back to this side using a new alias, making new games then do the same thing all over again and no one can do shit. as it is for the best and for the worst for everyone to remain anonymous /unnamed.

Really sucks because this game specifically has such a unique vibe. There are basically no other decent games that capture this similar vibe of exploring domination/submission play with a classmate or friend group setting without crossing heavily into either rape or NTR territory. Even then most games tend to have some brutal socially inept loser or sociopath MC edgelord.

I mean yeah it does bump against that line with the body controlling devices but everyone involved being 100% consenting entirely sets it apart. In the current content the abusive Sasha route is probably the darkest one you can go down but even then she could just stop any time she wants and leave the program. It just adds a very different flavor to the kind of dynamic we've otherwise seen a hundred times before. Oh well.

The biggest shame is that the dev left before letting us smash best girl Akemi at least once.

Yeah... there's some other games in the same BDSM subgenre, but this one had by far the best dynamics between the characters and it's not even close. Sad to see it ended up in this state so unceremoniously.

is it really abandoned though? the dev makes videos and animations for other AVN devs, his style is immediately recognizable.
