VN Ren'Py Abandoned We Were Just Kids [v0.3b] [MissFortune]

[PeopleCallMeSmile]

what happened to that WWJK left hand
or abandoned him, I don't know? Because I don't know what these developers want in life, they start to stop instead of finishing, they leave it aside to make another one what they started first never ends, there are so many good games out there that they would rather abandon than finish it to make another one unfortunately the Most, not everyone, makes their games not to please their players but with money in mind

Thing is this world moves around with money and this VN didn't leave that much money for the dev. That's it.

Wouldn't be surprised to see this "game" get the Abandoned tag in 2024

This game only had about 30 supporters... MTC picked up almost 100 in just 1st release... therefore, this game gets flushed and he's going to work on the one that makes more money.

The biggest stupidity of developers is that they do everything for money, never to please the players that's why the minority is breaking their faces the game isn't making any profit and I have the idea to create another one and make more money just repeat the cycle or abandon previous games

Nami from Summer's Gone is in this looks like, male MC's sister, just not as high quality renders as in that game and rocking the same hairstyle as Selena from Become a Rock Star. I like the game. Story was interesting so far and renders are good. Too bad it got abandoned looks like, it has potential

Except MTC hasn't had a content update since the initial release. Instead there have been the eerily familiar tales of computer woes delaying things. I'm not sure how much revenue they are getting from Steam, but apparently enough that putting out new content isn't a concern.

If you didn't read my previous posts.. I told people already exactly what was going on. He doesn't want to develop a "game"... he wants a knockout homerun that hits 2k a month in 1 or 2 releases. I wouldn't be surprised if since the male protag harem theme didn't do that he dissappears and tries to reappear as someone new with a whole new game.

An ambiguous opinion remained after completing the game.
On the one hand, you can't say "Wow, I advise everyone", but on the other hand it's not "ugh, what shit, how can you play this". Many shortcomings are written off due to the fact that this is the developer's first game. And he himself promises that as soon as the game is finished, the shortcomings of the first versions will be fixed.

The graphics are unreal, the drawing of the characters is quite pleasing to the eye. I can't judge animation. After DICK, where do you take the animation and put it on your desktop as a live wallpaper. That's it, and thanks for that.

Thanks to the developer for still letting us rename the characters we play for. The narrative, unfortunately, is ragged, jumping from one hero to another. It was necessary if he decided to make several main characters, then first the story of one, then the other, and in the end they were already combined.

The variability here is completely the reality of 2022, namely the complete absence of any variability in the game. It all comes down to watching a scene, skipping a scene. As an example, the female protagonist, the photo session, skip the scene further, or show that she is a nymphomaniac, which take and tr *x *y.

It is unclear for what purposes the *nc *st patch is here. Yes, there are games where this very *nc *st patch is critically important, for example DMD. And there is where it does not affect the plot at all, as an example of Sunny love. What to play with it, what without, you won't notice much difference. Also, here I did not understand at all what the *nc * st patch does. He's more of a hindrance here. Like, for example, the mother of a female hero. Then she walks naked in front of her and her friend, and then it's not clear who she's dumping her cleavage on to the player or her daughter. Similarly, the male hero sister did not tell us any background why she wants a brother, you know. The developer left this behind the scenes.

In general, if you have something to play, it's better to play it. And if you've gone through everything and are looking for something to play, you can check out this game.It is too early to put an assessment, we must wait for what will happen next and then it will be possible to put an assessment.

sorry, but I thought the protagonist was ugly with that hair and a thin beard

Actually it has had an update at my time of posting. Tbf its a better game and conceptually more solid. The dev's biggest problem is making super quality rendered games and then expecting dramatic returns based on that. If people get no updates then they dont keep donating money. OR they do my favorite thing like Summers Gone and release a neutered version for steam like people will want to follow a single payment watered down version of what they wanted in the first place. If they would just drop the quality a notch and increase their productivity with the updates, talented devs will get followers. BAD didnt get there by having over stylized renders and year long gaps for almost nothing. DPC did smaller updates on a quality story and then went to year gaps when it was clear his fanbase was set in stone and everyone knew they were getting a whole chapter at a time and that was after releasing a masterpiece like Acting Lessons. You know exactly what you're getting and he only did a quality update when the new Renpy dropped. Dude also bought a computer solely for rendering so he can work faster.

Also side note: It helps when your MC isnt some half feminized overly pretty emotional fuckboi who has a market share in hot topic with how much edge he has who women just fall over. No one can convince me any female is attracted to the MC of become a rockstar. I mean look at the MC names of this game.....might as well went with Blane Hammer and Sunfire Miller with the level of terrible YA writing that invokes.

Good game, bad game, I don't care anymore... the moment I realized he's just after a dollar amount, I dumped.. it just tells me if he ever does actually reach the amount he wants then this game with just become another AWAM type game where it's lucky if get a 10 minute update every 6 months... it's not going to be me helping him get his $ money for nothing.

That's not really how life works man. If a dev just isn't getting the financial support the game just won't happen. That's how it goes. People gotta eat.

He's the one who said this was a "passion project" he has job LOL and this was a side project to do in his free time, its not that he switched, it's how he how he did it... I've already addressed this before, It's why i wouldn't trust this guy with a dime. People can do what they want, but don't be surprised when you get burned.... AGAIN.

I've tried out both We Were Just Kids and Move The Chains.

And I got very interested in the plot and characters of WWJK, and really want to see what happens next.

Meanwhile, I just couldn't get into MTC. I dunno why. Maybe it's because I have no interest in football, but I also didn't find the characters as appealing. I think the fact WWJK has two protagonists, plus a few side characters we get glimpses into, is another plus (I'm a sucker for multiple protagonist narratives). MTC has only one protagonist, and the story seems to be solely about him.

I accept that MTC is currently the money maker, but I'm still gonna be chugging the hopium that WWJK makes a comeback someday. Maybe when MTC is finished.

not going to say anything that hasn't already been said, one abandoned game, one abandoned game labeled "on hold" and yet another game coming out, I think I won't be playing this devs games. once the popularity of mtc slows down, it will be abandoned for another money grab.

plenty of other devs out there that put out consistent work, so I will give them my time and attention. Such a shame because both this game and the new one are really well written and have amazing renders, but such is life.
