You call him a moron, but... I didn't make half a million dollars last year, did you? :ROFLMAO:

Sure, no one here is making that money, unless they're heading one of these games or whatever, but he could've turned this into more. I mean, if you had a golden egg given to you, would you hatch it or make an omelet?

You know what would've been the best fucking option logistically for this moron of a developer? Close the game out, and start SS2, even if that was rushed, we'd be in the same fucking situation with far happier people. It wouldn't have turned into this absolutely bloated fucking storyline of a game. Could have built the code to what it is now with ruining the old one. Hell maybe even closed out and developed the sequel in parallel, but no. Took down a piece of his own history to put a Starbucks. BRILLIANT. I mean, have these sleeze-ball dev's heard of the phrase "know your audience"? It's a bunch of fucking has-beens, jerking off. And if we can't well, we're pissed. Shocker. Fuck this guy's project and haven't supported since his updates went from 3-4 a year to a fucking ghost town.

It is a straight up SCAM. Plots have beginnings, middles, and ends. The dev never once planned to finish this game, or it would have a beginning, middle, and end, and he'd be working on SS2 right now after successfully completing a game ya'll sucked his nuts over and paid him several million dollars for. There is NO EXCUSE to not have finished product for several million dollars and 5+ years of development time for a fucking 2D POINT AND CLICK PORN GAME. Straight up fucking scam.

I remember when this game first came out: I cannot fucking believe it still isn't finished, and I can't fucking believe people are still paying this guy. Stardew Valley was made by one fucking guy over the course of 4 1/2 years for free, built from the ground up, and this motherfucker can't finish a Ren'Py game in over the same amount of time for MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Ya'll are legit stupid if you pay this guy. The fuck do you even have interest in this stale ass game anymore? It's garbage compared to some other games out on the market right now because IT'S OLD AS FUCK FOR A PORN GAME.

There are so many games just like this milking fans, forever long wait times between updates for two scenes and an assload of filler, the art and the plot isn't even that good as anymore. The only reason this cunt gets away with doing this shit is because you MORONS are paying him. I can't imagine making $600,000 a year to sit on my ass and do fuck all, and that's exactly what this numbnuts is doing. Picking ya'lls moronic pockets. Dark Cookie needs a car battery clamped to his nutsack and a broken jaw.

Amen. I played this game once back when I found this site a couple years back. It's ok. It's fine. I wouldn't have guessed the dev to be so successful from it alone and I don't know how people support him still.

I honestly think the "most patreon money is made by people that have no idea they're still subbed" theory is true. This dev just doesn't work, lol.

I'm an average coder. Average at best. If two years ago he hired me to port his game from renpy to a bespoke, in-house engine I'd have had it finished in full no more than 6 months later...and that's stretching it and doing full debugging.
It's images, audio, text and clicking/screen selection. Something like Unity or Godot would be too powerful for that, lol. I could write a basic text-based story engine in a week tops. Add a week for the others.
This is not a 2-4 year job, lol.

Well lads, this is certainly top entertainment, I never thought DC would be gutsy enough to release this. I used to support him like 5 years ago, but stopped, once I realized the guy is an asshole. And if you're having a blast in here you should check discord. The devs are going nuts telling people off left and right and saying "why are you complaining about some free shit" people just respond saying the game is getting paid for by people backing it and that that fact alone doesn't warrant this shite. Fucking hell, this is like watching the bloody Hindenburg or the Titanic. You know this isn't going to end well. I reckon DC has enough brain-dead followers to keep some money going, but if you have two functioning brain cells, backing this shitshow is beyond question.

I'm personally very amused by the idea that it has dated topical Trump vs Hillary jokes in it, and the tech update has now been lost in the abyss for so long that Trump will be in office again by the time you can play that content in it :ROFLMAO:

i've been saying this for years. they have a literal working model for reference, all they had to do was optimize and refactor the code.

Right! This shit dropped during the time of the 2016 election, lmao. If this is ever finished the new generation that finds it will be playing a time capsule filled with references equal to a current 24yo hearing 80s memes and references.

Problem is...This is exactly what people want. They like being treated like idiots otherwise
they wouldn't be paying $60,000 per month for nothing...or close to nothing. It's just insanity.
