I'm finished getting some of the images from my hard drive that were on my Deviantart. The one with the naked woman whipped was removed even from my Patreon so I don't know where else to put it for now. Same with the Ahsoka fanfic, it was meant for Deviantart, but if I upload it to the new acc there is a good chance it will get taken down too. And of course I can't ask money for it so it won't get to Patreon/Subscribestar either. :D

Some of the short got removed by Patreon the other day. I'm going to post them here for now. At the end of June I will publish the shorts that were gathered until March 31 in Twine format. I will keep a 3 month delay period with them, but eventually all of them will become free.

Is there anyone who played through 1.6.1? :D



I had a commenter who stated an opinion but based on his comment he played a previous version.

Anyone who thinks it's not garbage? :D
Relax. Not had a chance to finish it. Just started working on playing it. Not getting a response does not mean it's bad. Been on here long enough to know if someone hated it, they would come tell you. Some people love doing that. So silence can also mean good things.

But it's always silence or someone telling me that it's shit. I had a Deviantart that I had running for a while, it was pretty much the only place someone said anything good about my titles. But then it was nuked and I'm back to the usual nothing-garbage loop.

I like your work. Life has just been too busy for me to play games here recently. Going to download the latest revision now.

Thanks! I'm glad that there is at least someone on f95zone who likes my work. :)
I do like it. Sorry to hear your other account was nuked. But like anonoswim I haven't had a chance to complete it either. But what I was trying to say in the last post, just because you're not getting bad comments or no comments does not mean it's not good. Silence does not by default mean people think it's bad.

I have noticed if people don't like your work, they have no problem saying it's bad. But I have also seen a lot of good games not get much comments at times though people like it. People sometimes don't realize you're waiting to see if you were successful when in fact in their mind, no comment is approval and just waiting to see where you take it next. Some times people just won't take the time to say good job. So don't let it bum you out when there is just silence for a bit.

I'm glad you like it too :) I understand that not everyone can always get there, it's more like the overall reception that is the problem. I have 3 regular commenters, all of them say very colorful things about my games, and whenever there is something, they are always there. It's very strange because based on what they say they literally hate them and 2 of them outright admit that they don't actually play them. But if something is up, they are there :D Aside from that no one really comments or does anything. Even on my Patreon I have posts where I ask opinions about versions, and there is nothing. Even if I ask members directly via message the answer is very often just silence.

I've been told that it's a sign of success when people stop complimenting you. It shows that you continue to deliver a level of success that they have grown to expect!

The main post says "version 1.2.51".

With so many updates and three or four different games, I'm very confused and can't make sense of anything :WutFace:.
The issue is that I have trouble getting NSFW art but nobody will ever believe me that I have trouble getting NSFW art. The good ai images in 1.2.51 like Elena or the burning spaceship took multiple days when I sat down after work and tried to generate them. The bad ones like the portraits took 1-2 hours and I could only make a couple each time I sat down.

With Daz I'm a bit more lucky because I can finally make a render in about 5-10 minutes, not counting the positioning. I can make about 10 each time I sit down after work and this way I can have updates that have at least 100 renders + make the shorts and some fanfiction because I like SW. Problem is that if you want to buy a hair at full price it will cost $25 while the whole budget I have for the month is about $200. Because of that I have to split my output between multiple games because I have to rely on discounts in order to spend the budget in a sensible way.

To make matters even better 1.2.51 has this formula where it becomes a new game with each path, which proved to be a total disaster because all of the paths go nowhere and the core of the game, the station, the Elena romance and the missions is very underdeveloped. What the rework is intended for is to tie everything together in one gameplay loop + replace the images with daz3d so I could make 100 render updates. 1.6.1 is still very short, 120 renders roughly. I will upload 1.6.2 on June 18 that has 225 renders and update the thread but right now everything is just a disaster. I honestly think I should quit f95zone for a while despite my Deviantart being nuked. In the eyes of the crowd making images with ai is just a click and daz3d is super cheap and you can buy hundreds of graphic assets with one dollar. So nobody will ever believe me and they will just keep telling me that my games are garbage.

So is there anyone who played it through? :D
I so don't want to be me right now xD I know it's getting to be a trope with me. But I'm a guy who is interested in doing creative stuff and I'm also a guy who COMPLETELY SUCKS at creating creative stuff. Back in the day I used to write stories and fanfiction, and well... silence is your good friend. Then I'm here and I thought with images it would be different. But I just share the update. Everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE! Then I share the next update. Everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE! And it just goes on and on. First I added the NSFW images. Everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE! Then I changed the story structure. Everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE! Then I made at least some of the story paths playable in the same run. Everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE! Right now I'm doing this 3D stuff. So far with The Zeta Sector it's just silence. But I have Stellar Justice, which basically attempts to do the same, and everyone on f95zone: IT'S GARBAGE!

That's not true; I never wrote "it's garbage" :rolleyes:.

My only complaint about the original version was that, to advance, you always had to choose the good path because all the bad paths ended the game after 30 seconds.

You also had like a 100 other. :D Like the mc always being submissive. Like getting out there without guns has no bad end tied to it. Or that the only fun thing in the entire game is shooting people with the water gun, etc... But I don't try to say I'm not grateful of your comments. I am. I'm just so tired at this point. I tried everything and nothing works. I've been working on my projects almost every day for the past 2 years. And nothing I came up with actually works. I couldn't tame the ai. Daz3d is a horror cost wise so I can't focus on a single project. Nobody says anything good about any of them anyways. So its not like the "good thing" was found and I only need to home in on it. All of these projects are shit. I'm weary of actually leaving f95zone for a while because I think it's going to kill the channel financially. And that means even less daz3d purchases and even less consistency. But honestly it would still be good in a way because at least I could shut people out for a while. Like in a "I know I'm shit so leave me alone" way. And if the games never become good, then they never become good. But at least I'd have a better time while I'm doing my garbage dumps.
