Wait was the last update really almost a year ago? For some reason I thought that he had released on of those updates with random scenes 3 or 4 months ago.
So like "MC_pose_1", "MC_pose_2", etc.? That's psychotic unless you have a cheat sheet the size of a billboard, and probably explains why the code was such a mess.In what world would anyone think that's a good system. No wonder they kept finding assets they didn't know they had when they relabeled the whole thing.

Man....I like Eve's current design, don't get me wrong, but sometime I'd like to play a porn game where every girl isn't glammed up to the Max. The original, less-curvy, slightly more frumpy Eve is actually quite cute.
sucks there wasn't a project manager/lead who knows what he's doing there to tell him thatIn what world would anyone think that's a good system. No wonder they kept finding assets they didn't know they had when they relabeled the whole thing.

1 year? The tech-update has been under development for two and a half years and will apparently be completed in three years.so, the next update is really gonna complete 1 year before release huh? i know people joked about it before but, is this it for the game? 1 year for a couple of scenes?
and yeah, i know its not only a couple, but still a full year. i remember when the game went multi month so there could be more content, but i also remember how the argument was, it was gonna do it so the game could have alot more stuff in it... and then the teachers update came and we got 4 sex scenes, 1 bj from one of the teachers, and i think a couple hjs.
so i get it giving it more time to deliver more stuff, but is this really it?
and is this next update finally make it beyond the pre-tech? or is 1 year the new normal?
i know people will read this as if im bashing the game, and i cant say im not, but im honestly curious as to the direction of the game. as, even though i was never a patron, i have played and looked foward to its content, but i've not touched it since, i belive the drumpf family update(i think it was called something like story 1 or 2).
so dont get me wrong, i do not want this game to fail. far from it, but when i look at games like 4 elements trainer, or love and sex: 2nd base, its kinda hard not to scratch my head in confusion why this one takes so long to deliver so little.
Checking content related details wouldn't have been a project manager's job anyway. A team of effectively 3-4 people (everbody but DC working part time) developing a renpy porn game really doesn't need a project manager, you may aswell just hire a competent coder - who knows what he's doing - instead. That's what people should be complaining about in hindsight. Back then, the updates were primarily limited by DC's abilitly to produce art, so it didn't really matter that much. Then again, Dogeek left right after the Eve update, so I guess they caught on after these 3 updates that he wasn't able to handle the new project properly, which then lead to him complaing about stress, etc.sucks there wasn't a project manager/lead who knows what he's doing there to tell him that
You don't necessarily need someone who's job is project manager but you always need someone who's job is to project manage. And this is what happens when that doesn't happen.Checking content related details wouldn't have been a project manager's job anyway.

Edit: Just to add, I'm not saying DC shouldn't have hired somebody to pre-plan the tech update and to help to clean the mess up. He certainly should have done that. But that's a different question to what happened before.
Would that really do much when the coders themselves don't work full-time on it?You don't necessity need someone who's job is project manager but you always need someone who's job is to project manage. And this is what happens when that doesn't happen.
Take a look into the stream. It dont looks as like abandoned there.Hmmm... Sooo... What Happen? Aboned? 0_0
Yup. But only for you.Hmmm... Sooo... What Happen? Aboned? 0_0
For what? You can download the current version here for free. Or you can download it directly from the developer's website for free.heroe link
Because with 2d games every single thing from the most simple in game item to an animated sex scene has to be hand drawnwhy 2d games in general take much longer in updates than 3d games shouldn't be the opposite ?
In almost two months, it's gone up by 1%... granted, there was also 1 additional task. I'd say we won't see this game for at least another year.as of today

Competent programmers who know what they're doing are a much, much harder find than project managers, though. Especially for a work on a porn game.developing a renpy porn game really doesn't need a project manager, you may aswell just hire a competent coder - who knows what he's doing - instead.
What would your average project manger do in this case? Monitor the schedule and dealines, which do not exist, because DC wants it that way? Report to superiors? Manage the money? Develope ideas? Define the scope of an update?Competent programmers who know what they're doing are a much, much harder find than project managers, though.
