Multiple AAA games have gone into production and completed, multiple renpy games have started and completed, while this game has still been in "pre-tech" status with millions in funding. It's funny to think that this was the same dev that used to release updates on the 29th of every month like clockwork.

It reminds me of the Omori development that took many years to release that had many backers angry about the delay and lack of communication (they're probably still salty).

When it finally came out it stopped many people's mouths, perhaps it happened with the tech update.
Anyway, the game itself has enough quality.

depending on how much the progress bar is going to get backwards it's going to be hilarious. DC defenders will have to do some overtime i guess.

but yeah a regressing progress bar is a good kick in the nuts as a present for all the pay pigs on the first year no update anniverary
LOL i remember when DC said like a little over a year ago hes going to be able to put out multiple updates around this time after the initial big wait after he released the dad story line with the russians, nothing has changed. I like this game but im glad i stopped giving him money, its laughable now.

Is this abandoned?
No basically Dark cookies didn't do what he said in the first place at first he said it's a really big tech update but i guessing he changed his mind last years or more because yesterday he said he rebuild entire game not just a big patch anymore

DC just posted an update on patreon about a creator milestone award they got.

"We're grateful for the amazing community, the love and continuous support from our fans."

Thought it was funny given how divisive this game is on this thread.

All this bullshit just to make the game widescreen. The moment I saw the tech update win in poll I knew it would take wayyy too long
It's not just widescreen.

Tens of thousands of backers vs. maybe a few dozen people complaining itt.

It's not like it hasn't happened at least twice before (see #15 in my FAQ above). Also, it really isn't unusual in projects for that to happen - even actually having to go back and redo work already marked as complete. Thirdly, as Chaos_Alfa states - progress, in this case, isn't actually going backwards... it just will look like it, based upon the percentage because they are going to try to better define how much each of the remaining tasks contribute to completing the tech update - rather than all tasks having the same percentage, no matter what amount of work is involved. Finally, if you are a subscriber - you can stop at any time, if you haven't already. If you're not, like me, you are scammed out of nothing.

Now to wait and watch the further posts of others who will come in to whine/bitch/moan/complain that they won't be getting their rocks off for free anytime soon. Even though many posts in this thread have repeatedly reasoned they shouldn't expect anything earlier than Spring 2024 - if not much later.
I thought it was a pretty funny joke.

For someone who claims to not defend the game but just present facts you're pretty prone to giving unwarranted information dumps in defense of DC.
That is because nobody reads these threads, they go on the Kompas website, look at the progress-bar, see that it has gone backwards since the last time they checked and they come here to release their coomer rage.

I only came here because I happened to catch the status-update as it dropped and I wanted to see coomers be angry and the hamster-wheel of cope spin in the supporters brains.

This Ren'py game has received north of one million dollars since the tech-update was announced 2 years and 7 months ago, either this DarkCookie guy is an incompetent fool incapable of managing a development team, or he is pretending to be one in-order to keep the checks coming in - either way, fuck this game.
Can you blame them? The actual information is behind a paywall.

But yeah, fuck this game at this point. The milkers might be wrong but I can't imagine feeling the need to defend DC's integrity after all this.

this "award" looks weird af.. I mean, how it's related to patreon or DC himself?
I'm guessing the whole giant, multicoloured head thing is supposed to represent the big and colourful imagination of a succesful Patreon creator? I'd like to see what higher earning Creators got. Does it scale with earnings? Like, I'm picturing the no. 1 creator gets a head that's like 10 times the size and fills the entire room.

I honestly think it kinda fits with what's Patreon is about. At least it's something very individual/handmade by someone who is partly funded through patreon and not something you'd mix up with any other milestone or "award" out there. While Youtube's play buttons are certainly more practical, this is kinda uniqe.

Edit:
To get on topic. Can anybody share the detailed tracker as it is now/was somewhat recently? I'd be quite interested to compare what's changed afterwards.
