Wonder if adding family relation choices at the start of the game goes against Patreon TOS.

Choose game "safe" defaults or (advance/hidden setting) customize your family members etc. Basically game doesn't predetermine any of those, it takes the player to actively say yes/no what each family member is or isn't.

I suggested to Irredeemable that he could use Chocolates instead of Pills to entice the girls, because you know women love chocolate. He just rolled his eyes...

I still like the idea of buying chocolates from a shady dealer though, 'cuz quality chocolates are pricey and they 'fell off a truck so I have a great discount on chocolates'. It'd fit the sometimes quirky nature of Teacher's Pets anyways....

He should just make it so instead of drugging girls. The MC can use something on himself to make himself more desirable.

I've never been super keen on the mind control thing but this rules and I need it in the game. Bonus points if you have a subplot where you have to investigate where ??? is getting the chocolates (and it ends up he's just buying bog standard European chocolates from an import shop the next town over.

In case it wasn't clear, Irredeemable is taking the pills out, he really didn't like having them the game in the first place anyways. At least that's how I remember it from various Discord convos and such.

I was just commenting on my creative solution is all, and the fact that he just rolled his eyes 'cuz that was too silly, even for Teacher's Pets...

I hope he will continue this project without any change I really like the story of father and daughter the plot it's interesting.

Edit: Maybe only the repetitive action I would changed. Right now it's a bit very repetitive.

I thought he had decided that they were more of a love potion type thing, and that they would get less effective over time. And that the girls would develop a resistance to the pills. (I could be wrong, and he could have changed his plan since I read that. )

I like the idea of "special" chocolates. :D

It sounds vaguely familiar to something Deem said once, but i think that was before the patreon debacle. Now they jus gonnna be outright removed.

I just found out about this game and it seems there's a lot of changes going on.

What are the mind control elements in this, is it the pills you're talking about? And if so, then the Mind Control element will be removed?

Yes, and yes as far as I understand, to better meet the updated Patreon guidelines.

They are all concerned about pills, but beer/alcohol is acceptable? :rolleyes:

Guess getting your target happy drunk or piss drunk/passed out and do what not is more acceptable than the pill type method? Little confused in how that is any different (essentially)?

Well, then that's one game less to play.
Especially if the dev is spineless enough to drop featjres of his game because of Patreon guidelines. To me this signals a dev that has no vision or passion and is just in it for the money - and even then, can't even deliver what people give him money for as soon as his current platform says it's not ok. Fuick this.

From the looks of it, Patreon just wants their front pages to be clean of questionable content, no one has had problems with patron-only content so far from what I understand. They've even been specific about not liking this content on the public page.

In this case you're free to leave the game alone or at least give an alternative about the platform. Quite a few devs have faced the situation so far although it seems like this one is an especially tough case. If patreon didn't start to bitch about stuff he wouldn't have changed the game, but since it's necessary it's not like he can do anything about it and since he wasn't too happy about this stuff to begin with he made a hard cut, even if he had to disappoint a few people. You can't make everyone happy anyway, so there'll always be some colleteral damage.

Just no. There's no excuse for changing the content. Just look at any other dev. They've simply cleaned up their public pages and had no issue afterwards.

And even if he wanted to remove sensitive content from the Patreon page altogether, a much more sensible alternative would be setting up a game site elsewhere for providing the free links. That's the most obvious solution everyone is ignoring for some reason. You don't need to post content on Patreon itself, just look at how most youtube or podcast people handle it. Changing content because of the new guidelines of what you can post on Patreon is just a kneejerk and shortsighted reaction. Patreon is not going to check every single devblog provided to see if the games they offer are or aren't in accord with their rules. They don't have a reason to, that's beyond their domain and they can't be culpabilized by anything there. If anything not bothering people who have hidden the nature of their content from the public page already shows whtat actually shutting it down is a low priority (though still worrying. I'm not saying people shouldn't seek new platforms, I'm saying that panicking and changing your game is not the right decision).

I don't get why people are talking like Patreon is forcing them to change content or get off the platform when that is clearly not what is happening, at least as far as I know. Admitedly I haven't followed the situation closely for a few weeks, but I haven't seen anyone have problems either since they just cleaned up their frontpages.

From what I have seen with other developers, I think that as long as it isn't actually put into words on the page, you can have whatever content in your game that you want. As long as your patreon page doesn't outright say that there are "mind control" elements in the game, then it is fine. I honestly think deem could keep the content in, like I said just removing any mention of the "mind control" element of the game. What Patreon doesn't know won't hurt them am I right?!
