Hey there people, still working on this if there were any doubts.
I know things have been poor lately, truth is my boss transferred me to a different team and a different city a couple of months ago, I thought I'd be able to handle things much better and go on with the schedule but I failed at it miserably.

But I'm much more settled down now and the release should come out shortly, I hope it can be this month.

Also I want to add that the release will be sent to all 10$+ patrons that supported me during January or February, or both obviosuly, as an apology for the lateness. I understand if people want to jump ship, it's totally justified, but the ship is not sinking and never will. I'm finishing the game no matter what.

I'm sorry. After .33 is out we will be coming back to progress reports, teases, polls and all the things I've foolishly neglected.

See ya.
Pheww a sigh of relief.

These people always have an excuse. Everyone is always moving, or has trouble at work, or is sick. I know one artist on patreon who has to stop drawing their comic about once a month for a new broken hand/wrist/arm. You name an excuse, i've almost certainly seen it multiple times.

Not everyone is lying about these things, but i just don't care anymore. People either fulfill their end of the bargain in delivering quality content in a reasonable time frame given the funds they are receiving, or they don't. The details and the hows and why not's do not matter at all, and at this point as soon as someone starts talking about their problems, never again do they get a cent.
For crying out loud. I'm getting really tired of all the negativity. This game has been in development for over a year.
During that period I have seen a pretty steady release of content expect for the last few months. It may even have more content then some "finished" games.

Yeah I'm sure there are plenty of dudes out there that abuse the system and/or just dropped the ball. Not every post is an excuse for milking patreons maybe there just living there lives? I personally like to judge people by there previous track record and so far he was doing fine. So maybe we should wait a moment before we bring out the pitchforks?

The point is for most of these games are people who do this in their spare time! And thus it takes a lot of that time and effort. Nobody is able to predict if there personal circumstances will remain the same during the development of a game which can easily take 1-3 years.

I'm pretty sure it takes a lot more time and dedication then posting a couple of post complaining about everything based on assumption instead of facts.

Yeah, all that hand-drawn art sure takes time, it's not like it's Daz3D or something...

OH WAIT...

You should try DAZ 3D to see how much time is needed to render one scene. Just so you know it takes several hours per scene to render plus you have to set up the scene, the characters the poses, lightning etc... It's not just "turn on the pc, open DAZ and click render and 5mn later it's done".

Also he has to write the story for each update and follow the global storyline, he surely have some usless scenes rendered because it has a problem or he's not happy with it and have to work on RPGM to implement all of this and see if everything works. So yeah all that art takes time.

I am fairly certain Bakuzan was being sarcastic regarding DAZ3D being quick. .. the dots and the OH WAIT are pretty clear hints i would think.

So basically he was alrdy saying what you guys are saying .. DAZ takes forever to render ... i thought i try it . and the render stayed on 0 percent for 10 minutes so i said .. screw this not with my PC ;D

no, the exact thing i meant is: dont even fucking compare what it takes to do hand-drawing, than what it takes to render on daz3d

if it took the same EFFORT, time, cost-opportunity, etc, you wouldnt see the massive influx of 3D porn games, and so few with hand-drawn/personalized art

this is the clear example of putting developers on a pedestal

Well you are wrong about the time effort i believe.
It is just easier to make decent ART with DAZ even if you are not good at drawing.

But if you are actually good at hand drawing i think you are faster than you are with DAZ.
You have to spend more active time on the drawing, but the DAZ rendering takes a lot of time , which basically blocks your PC for that time. ... And a friend of mine who is good at drawing actually enjoys it a lot and never actually sees it as work at all.

SO overall i think DAZ is easier, but more "work" than hand drawing.

But this is not the place to discuss this anyway.
So back to the topic at hand, lets hope he will really update the game till the end of the month, because it is a GREAT game so far.

Somehow i doubt its gonna be this month. Theres only over a week left. He could have just waited and released instead of making this post. I still believe it'll be in march (tho i hope i'm wrong)

So dont ur main page these things first every patreon gamer plss..Ok pls dont write :

"""Ok, I heard all of that but, why should I support you?

Well, the final build of the game is planned to be completely FREE for ANYONE so, maybe you SHOULDN'T? But if you like the idea and want to see it reach it's full potential, played and enjoyed the demo and can spare a buck or two I would greatly appreciate it."""" Look ur Greyinu Mainpage ok..

Because here comments i become his/her patreon some time..Dont bullshit people here.

and im sure so many lawyer here and every these guys attitude same....
"Milky patreons.Dont negative comment.. bla bla blaaa.. "

Eh? Why are you taking my statement out of context? And start about Daz3d Vs hand drawing? And putting developers on pedestals? I mean when did I say or implicate any of that???? That's not what my post was about.

That statement was merely aimed at the user who took 10 min complaining about how long everything takes so long and that every Patreon post that attempts to explain any delay is by default a delaying tactic to milk patreons. Not that aren't cases in which this is the case, but that doesn't mean that every post is a delaying tactic but simple live happening.
Anyways back on topic.

I hope and i thing this game will have a really big update, he was six months with Patreons paying for nothing, he has to compensate that.

I think most people here would be glad of any update, at least it would prove that the game is still being worked on.

Shit happens. But he could set the payments as per update instead of per month, lot of people would be more willing to understand the dev's issues and maybe more people would become patrons.

The guy has his problems just like everyone. I am pretty sure he'll be back
Not really everyone, more like every dev that uses patreon.

There are like 2/3 patreons i know of that just do what they are paid for instead of breaking their hardware/limbs just to get a few months break.
