VN Ren'Py Unleashed [v0.6.5b] [CarbonBlue]

[Tremonia]

Wow, v0.6b2 was released 04.05.2023. The actual release is from 01.09.2024. That's 486 days. In these 486 days the dev was able to make 102 static renders, 0 animations and 485 lines of code (including space lines). To get this straight: he made 0.21 render and 1 line of code a day.

Everyone can read many times on this board that I'm one of those who have a lot of understanding for devs. Almost all of them have their own lives with a job and a family. Creating a VN is a hobby for almost every dev and I understand that things take time. I'm not one of those people who scream that they're milkers after just four months without a new update.

But to be honest: I've no understanding for what has been delivered here. It's simply outrageous. It wouldn't bother me if the dev didn't have a history here of insulting and mocking people.

Accordingly, I say quite openly: shame on you!

an average dev probably could make that amount of renders in like a week if they wanted to While working a full time job

Nah, I don't think so. Posing, rendering, and postwork takes time. But a month is a fair assumption.

edit: But it's absolutely possible to make this in one week.

yeah maybe a week is pushing it a bit, but ~60 a week is doable

 

[galibx23]

Hell yeah last time i remember it got an abandoned tag or was it hold.

 

[deadh30775n]

Why is carbon like this?

 

[Tremonia]

Absolutely doable. I check the outcome of all the devs I've pledged on Patreon and all of them are doing more as 60 a week. Even the one who had struggles in real life with personal health.

one of the best vn's on this or any site

damn Shannon is soooo fucking hot

 

[Elduriel]

Why is carbon like this?

he gets away with it because people are stupid. With literally zero effort he still has over 200 paying patrons.

 

[ImperialD]

damn Shannon is soooo fucking hot

its to bad the dev wouldn't let us decide on which girl we wanted at the end ... i call dibs on Shannon

I got excited to see this on the update page. Then saw it has 1 extra scene.
Oh well

 

[JustJane]

I don't get it. I continued my save, and no new content. 0.6b2 was watching TV with everyone and chose someone at the end.

0.6.5b - After choosing someone at the end, there is like a picture with her, and the devs patreon link.

there is an extra scene added somewhere in the episode with a couple renders that's it, it still ends at the same place as it did many moons ago. You need to replay the last chapter to see the new scene.

I see, thanks!

 

[Eblodroid]

really??????

 

[Ozzfest]

Started over and still not sure exactly what the new stuff was. Still stopped after choosing who to end the night with, which is what i remember from the last time I played.

You must be new to how CarbonBlue works.

14 months for one scene? Guys, milking is taken to a new level.
This clearly should be considered as "bypass abandon tagging" which is also "bypass rules" and should be handled accordingly.

Sometimes it's better to release NOTHING than such a <censored>.
Putting one scene out and remind everyone again on this so called "updated" game is a bad move and a huge backfire - i guess.

 

[CarbonBlue]

So for those of you who haven't been around much, here's the deal. Yes, development is super slow. In January of this year my mother, who lived with me and I was her caretaker, fell ill. In March she died. It's very difficult to work on a light-hearted porn game when that happens.

Work on Episode 7 has been ongoing. While work on Episode 7 is going, I went ahead and released the final version of Episode 6, which was incomplete in the last update. That's where we're at now. A full update, Episode 7, will be coming soon. When? Dunno, I'm not gonna give out an estimate until I'm sure. But things are finally getting back to normal and people are going to start seeing reasonably timed updates again.

That's not a promise and it's not something I expect anyone to believe. Unfortunately the nature of this business means y'all will just have to wait and see if I deliver. If you'd rather not wait around, that's cool. But it's a good game. And you'll be missing out.

Oh and to the dude that said the discord isn't active? Bullshit. I'm there every day. It's not the most active discord in the world, but if you yell at me there I'll usually respond pretty quickly (at least in reasonable US eastern standard time hours).

It doesn't seem to make any difference - some people just blindly support a dev with no care about what they get in return. Its a real shame because he has some talent but is also a lazy bullshitter.

Its also a shame that some on here are absolute brain dead morons who would cheer someone and thank them for spitting in their face. It's like Onlyfans simps but for VN developers!

You actively chose to not pause your Patreon or go to a pay by release model. People are very understanding to devs when shit happens but exploiting your fanbase and making up excuse after excuse after excuse is shitty behaviour.
