Shocked to see the game abandoned! I've been playing this one since the first release. Yea Alice is funny looking, but the rest are gorgeous. I have liked the blend of dream, mythology, and reality in the story. Oh well.

and I know it's ironic coming from someone with an anime girl as a PFP, but this image just cracks me up, I don't even like anime in general
What are you even talking about man? I didn't make any points about why the game was abandoned, just expressed my view on what Maviarab said. Replying to me saying that's not the point doesn't make any goddamn sense LMAO
If somebody reports it, they usually ban the games. Some reviewers are bad at their job fortunately.

Sad to see this one got abandoned, but it's not too surprising that the dev was losing so much financial support. I mean when was the last time he completed a whole scene in a single update? The current scene, which isn't even finished, has dragged on for over a year in 4 or 5 updates. It just seems that the dev lost interest in making this VN.

All these years in Dev to end up getting dumped. It's a fucking tragedy.
Better than a rushed shitty ending I suppose, but sure feels bad for the Patrons and supporters I bet.
Best of luck Dev in your future endeavors, you made a decent, almost finished, piece of erotic art.

and what happened to this developer that he abandoned the game, the game began to make money, or what else is the disappointment in such developers
Was he doing this full-time? Initially, I thought it was more of a side project. However, the developer was investing a surprising amount of effort into crafting the story for what seemed to be primarily a porn game. With not many players caring about the plot, and likely a lot just skimming through the dialogues, his efforts appeared lost in a very small niche.
I can't help but wonder what would happen if he removed all sexual content and released the game as a normal visual novel. After all, sex doesn't seem crucial to the plot, and that's where the developer invested most of his effort. There's ample material to rebrand it as a fantasy novel. Perhaps a simple renaming of the game and a fresh attempt might yield different results. Maybe that way, the game could reach a broader audience, one that simply craves an interesting story.

Dev had a severe medical problem sometime ago, and he imo did a bad move, he said people should stop supporting him for the time he is out, (instead of just pausing patreon for example), this lead to him loosing over 50% of his patreon money which put him into a difficult financial situation, then the war in ukraine just made things worse as he had to jump through hoops to get the patreon money, in the last few months he was trying to get it into steam for a boost in revenew, when this failed he decided he needed to get a new job as he was already in debt.
Imo there is a non zero chance he finishes this slowly overtime, fingers crossed.
For now this will remain as one of the most interesting games in this whole site, nothing quite like it.
Much love.

Damn, that sucks.
While not very polished this VN had some serious charm, and the story was pretty interesting.
I respect PixelsLab so much for trying, and being honest with his supporters when he figured out it's not working out. Patreon incentives milking so much it's honestly amazing to see someone refusing to go that way.
Seriously hope things work out for him.

So this is an update that was released on, I'm guessing Patreon, 2 months ago and it is just now getting updated here? So, maybe the game is not really abandoned yet? Or has the Dev said anything at all about it? I will admit, I haven't played much of this game, and it has been a while since I have played so I would have to restart to know what is going on. But I wonder, if it is truly abandoned, then should I even bother.

Yes, the dev said two months ago that he was abandoning it. You can read it here https://f95zone.to/threads/the-intoxicating-flavor-v0-10-6-pixelslab.12818/post-12807785 or here
You must be registered to see the links
. F95 people only noticed today. Which tells you how many people were subscribed to the patreon.

It was obvious it was not working out months ago. Nothing made sense and it was more a wall of text than a VN.
I haven't played in almost a year but not surprised at all. The game wasn't interesting people play porn VN for the porn not to be mind fucked by someone who wants to write some sort of grandiose complicated story. I feel for the writer but he should understand what is popular on f95 what people tastes are and it isn't this. Hope he doesn't quit but instead writes a more basic story with more sex that doesn't have a complicated plot.

This is sad, I really liked this game and it was rather unique in how it handled its own story and characters.

I'm the same. I was following this one pretty closely at the start, but then the dev lost the plot and started filibustering the player in the updates and I lost interest. It is the LOST of porno games.
