VN Unity Abandoned True Bond [Ch.1 Part 5] [Cloudlet]

[cgtc]

Yeah communication seems to be one of the biggest issues. I don't know if this has been confirmed but some people say that the dev is from Russia so I don't know if the whole war thing has affected him. But since he seems to be somewhat active on discord it wouldn't really be that hard for him to make some progress updates on patreon.

The dev is very uncommunicative and has a habit of disappearing without explanation for long periods of time. Officially, he has never justified his disappearances, and the rumors about the Russia war are just baseless speculations. The reality is that he's an inconsistent and unreliable dev. He promises delivery dates that he consistently fails to meet. In the past, he already abandoned the development of a game, and this latest update was released after he had been missing for over a year. Whether he will abandon True Bond or continue to update it (and when he will release a new version) is something only he knows.

Yeah,idk why people still cant understand that.Literally %90 of developers like Cloudlet.There are very few developers who produce something constantly and communicate with their patrons/fans.It sounds toxic but this is the reality boys.

Literal janny behavior.

If 90% of developers were like that, you wouldn't get new game updates almost every day in this forum. Most devs do a decent job, you just have a few bad apples that make everyone else look bad.

I didn't know this game, I tried it and I liked it.
but gradually I began to understand that I will have to abandon this too

Man I hope it's not abandoned, this game has the best animations I've seen yet and the milf model is just perfection

For those having problems getting this to run on MAC:
-download [Mac]True_Bond.app.rar
-extract [Mac]True_Bond.app.rar (I use Keka for extracting RAR archives, use whatever works for you)
-run the following console command 'chmod +x [Mac]True_Bond.app/Contents/MacOS/[Mac]True_Bond'
-run the game

Hello from 2023, bro I hope you are still around. Could you plz specify how to do this step [-run the following console command 'chmod +x [Mac]True_Bond.app/Contents/MacOS/[Mac]True_Bond']? where should I go to run the console command? many thanks

Literally this developer must laugh a lot, he did a good job and now he earns a month without doing anything, do you want to see him always post something? It's just general to withdraw from his patreon, when the money dries up, they go back to work

nah this guy goes a step beyound. if people withdraw their money the guy just abandons and creates a whole new project under another name with the same premise and almost identical caracters. he changes tiny bits and add no real content and then posts the game again.

here is what appeared not long after true bond was cancelled; https://f95zone.to/threads/crazy-son-v0-01a-crazy-wanker.142116/

Literal janny behavior.

Wtf does Jenny behavior even mean. If the dev doesn't respond or have updates within 3 months the game should be classified as abandoned.thats the literal rule on this site

1. It prevents new people from giving them money on patron. So that they can't milk the game. No work = no pay.

2. It ensures that things are up-to-date.

3. It ensures that future devs are frequently communicating with supporters. Devs that dissappear for months on end with no response is a big no no.

 

[fairyglen]

can someone post his latest discord please

 

[Mortem67888]

nothing much on discord nobody knows about update

 

[Gamerboybst64]

The game was updated in may and it has received abandoned tag in just 3 months???

All games recieve abandoned if there has been no posts on a crowdfunded service like Patreon.

as frustrating as it can be when devs don't communicate. i'd like to know (non-rhetorically) what's so difficult about an update post? even if it's just some text on where he's at nothing fancy.

is it that there's so little progress it's useless/embarrassing to make a post about? or dev doesn't comprehend the decency of communicating with his patrons?
if it's the former, then that's not dissimilar to milking your patrons because you can't be transparent
if it's the latter, there are enablers/apologists within his patrons who say "whenever it comes out it will " so dev has no reason to change his mindset or work ethic

any other viable reasons? im beyond jokes pls

Dude, the game is free, the dev doesn't owe anyone anything.
