You have a point. I defer to your expertise, and thank you for reminding me of the mobile flash build fiasco. I remember they stopped supporting IOS entirely despite there being a simple workaround for the issue that caused them to stop supporting IOS. So yeah, in retrospect, you're absolutely correct separate codebases would be a nightmare for them.

In fairness, Fenoxo coasted off of Patreon money for years, with earning under 100K a month on Patreon (meaning less than 12 full time devs, who could be earning more money working in another field).

He has several direct employees and pays bounties on writing projects, while he's pulled back on his own development because a late 30/40 something can't feed the libido to write porn as a full time gig. The money that is being earned can't even hire a dozen fulltime writers on minimum wage in the US, I can't imagine what it would have cost to hire a team to do a full conversion to Java, given literal years of content locked in Flash.

In terms of porn games, Fenoxo is a behemoth, in terms of dealing with paying the wage that a real job would cost, it's fuck all.

I've been frustrated with TiTs progress for a long time, but there's really not enough money involved to get a proper IT team off the ground, it's just a bunch of people who make wank material trying to make a game, and if the main dev burns out, shit gets fucked a hundred ways from Sunday.

Most porn game devs are from developing countries for a reason, which is that USD goes a lot further when cost of living is rock bottom.

Fair point, but that's about the least of the many, many problems with Fen. I have no respect for him as a person due to a very long running history of how he manages his projects and the greed and disrespect towards his audience and even his supporters/volunteer writers he has shown. This isn't the place to get into it.

this has nothing to do with their blatant incompetence at accomplishing even the simplest game mechanics for a simple, text-based game that has no complex logic necessary as well as rewriting to javascript which is a quite simple language overall. you would think that someone would develop some skill at what they're doing given how many years they've been developing this game, but no. i've seen game devs currently in ukraine get out more substantial updates in recent times than fenoxo and crew

even just one dev should be able to accomplish what they need. the game overall is a very simple task. however, looking under the hood at what they currently have is an abomination. good luck dealing with that in the future, i suppose

yeah even Savin is like that. I played corruption of champions 2 and basically said that maybe having the option to kill Etheryn pregnant sister to prevent Kassyra would be a very good strategic move even though dark and I got told off. Hell I’ve seen more better games on renpy or rpg maker for this. Hell I’ve seen flash and Java games have animation compared to this. I don’t condone what I proposed but Savin game is about preventing the end of the world. It like being so in Kuroinu and not being able to kill Volt and his rats when you could. Again it could just have been coded to make you try and fail. You can’t even play a pragmatic hero in CoC2

Hi im new to TiTs and a bit confused... Do you need an image pack or not? I haven't even installed a flash player or similar software and the game seems to be running fine.

The game is being ported to JavaScript. You started right when they are almost done with the port. Images are included in this version, no need for a separate download.

Aah Thanks for clarifying but I have another question, There doesn't seem to be any bust image for my character, is that part just not implemented yet? or Do I have to add my own images for that?

Kind of thought That the bust images would be way to hard to make since there are literally millions of different variations of body shapes, sizes, addons ect-

That's why its mostly text-based. There are images to give you an idea like a pic of a major character/place but most of it is like reading a book.

Is there an offline version of that new Json Tits Editor?

Given its brand new, likely no. They JUST MADE it with the HTML surpassing the Flash one. If the guy creates a patreon for it, maybe but I am not the creator. Nor do I have the time for it.

Do you guys think that now with the Html/Javascript version is there a possibility of the BOOBS Mod returning?
