Yes, to some people it matters so we know not to support a game that has a high chance of being abandoned due to the same "if I don't make x amount by x date... game is aboned".does it matter if he is EroM or not?

He's doing the same thing with this game too. It's in the FAQ, he "needs" 1k by Chapter 4.At the end of the day, does it matter if he is EroM or not? As I understand it, the reason EroM abandonded his game because it didn't make x amount of $ by x time. Maybe Carbon is EroM and he's just realized that if he puts the work/time in, he will reach his goals. I also know for a fact that if Carbon is EroM then he isn't the first dev to abandon a game and come back under a different name.
It's also just so fucking disrespectful to his past patrons to show back up with a new game with absolutely zero explanation after ringing them along for a yearYes, to some people it matters so we know not to support a game that has a high chance of being abandoned due to the same "if I don't make x amount by x date... game is aboned".
You are highly mistaken.At the end of the day, does it matter if he is EroM or not? As I understand it, the reason EroM abandonded his game because it didn't make x amount of $ by x time.

I see, I didn't really follow this EroM guy so no clue what all the backstory is. But I'm all for second chances ( if he can prove he deserves it ).You are highly mistaken.
eromersive’s got over 500 patrons after he released ch. 4 of demon boy and enough to, in his words, become a full time dev and upgrade his workstation.
But then comes the dev cycle of ch. 5 and after 8 months of previews and devs, when seems like the game was close to release he started a shitshow of excuses of why game wasn’t ready and ghosting people until he simply vanish. His last post on patreon is from January this year promising release the update in TWO WEEKS. And then, nothing.
So yes, if he is Eromersive (I’m not saying he is) it is a big thing. Because we are talking about a guy that deceive and string along people for months until disappear and then come back under a new account pretending be another person. And this is dishonest. And baffles me see people being ok with dishonesty just because of pretty 3D images.
i mean on one hand i get it, if you are below 1k per month then you cant really be expected to work on something full time but saying "nah if i dont make this much by this time then im scrapping the whole thing" doesn't really help his cause cuz then people are just gonna go "oh its not near 1k, might as well not subscribe because he is gonna abandon it anyway"View attachment 3094439

I would like to retract my previous statement
Exactly. If he needs $1k by release #4 then he could just do releases 1-4 on patreon and then when he has 4 done just release on steam and make $20k, tis annoying how some would rather abandon.i mean on one hand i get it, if you are below 1k per month then you cant really be expected to work on something full time but saying "nah if i dont make this much by this time then im scrapping the whole thing" doesn't really help his cause cuz then people are just gonna go "oh its not near 1k, might as well not subscribe because he is gonna abandon it anyway"
I think he literally trolling us at this point. He did as much as he could to make things clear HE IS EroMersive to return his fanbase, but he will never admit it because he don't want to continue Demon Boy development or making excuses.Its just silly at this point to pretend not to be the same developer, I immediately recognized the style even before downloading. Its even sillier to pretend this is the first game this developer has created, a new developer doesn't create 10 minutes of gameplay and a GUI that is amazing for the first release.
I really enjoyed Demon boy and was sad to see it abandoned. I don't really understood why the developer let it go considering it was very lucurative at the time. Perhaps he just lost passion for the project.
Oh wow I didn't know this bit. If that's the case then yeah that andBut then comes the dev cycle of ch. 5 and after 8 months of previews and devs, when seems like the game was close to release he started a shitshow of excuses of why game wasn’t ready and ghosting people until he simply vanish.

He never set a monetary goal with Demon Boy. He just lied over and over about its development to get more money and when he couldn't hide that he was grifting anymore he vanishedOh wow I didn't know this bit. If that's the case then yeah that and(probably) thisare scams, Ero basically makes a goal he thinks people won't hit but will get close to so that he rakes in ~700+ bucks a month off of game updates he honestly probably made before the Patreon and then dips when people don't hit his lofty goal.
Didn't really have a plan for when people actually gave him the money he wanted so he just ghosted.
EDIT: Holy shit he's still getting paid from the Demon Boy Patreon too, lol
