You could ask on itch.io


For some reason he didn't want to post the Public Version on Patreon.

Starts off saying it isn't a porn game. A few minutes in someone is getting raped by rocket dildos. Uh-huh.

why the fuck is v0.6.0 only 489.4MB while the previous version was 5.29GB ??

They made the uncompressed version a $7 and up exclusive on their Discord.

Is there somewhere walkthrough? :)
There was a multi-mod but it has vanished between yesterday and today.

I just noticed this...I'm a patron but may not be for any longer. Tiering quality based on payment is pretty shitty imo.

They are trying to iron out some kinks with unrpyc as the dev stripped the rpy files out and the decompiler is acting funny with this

Well if you do be kind and give him an ear full on your way out. I'm not sure if he realizes some of these paranoid decisions are hurting his brand. I'm a patron and I wouldn't have even known there was an update if it wasn't for Flipper Roo

I expressed my concerns but expect them to be ignored. The dev is still making noises about quitting development due to subscriber numbers too. I enjoy the game but having seen Devs go down this route before so I'm not particularly optimistic.

True and them trying to keep everything on Discord isn't helping attract new fans.

Though I assume some of the drama is because most of the things they say goes through machine translation.

I find the story to be interesting but if they go more recluse I might just switch to throwing a bit of coins down on itch.io instead of patreon.

He is having some problems with the Patreon page, because they want Vermelion to change the whole game, that's why he said many times, that he can't post new versions in Patreon. That's because he opened a Buy Me a Coffee account

That's not true, he said that from now on, all the versions are going to be compressed, the only uncompressed version is the first beta version of each update for translators and patreons to test it, since the guy who does the compression, doesn't have time to do it. Compressed and uncompressed version is the same, nothing change.

What part of this is not true?

I'm sure you took the time to look up Golden Novels Patreon Tiers.

So if it's only for PatreonsTier3 and MembersPremium that is a $7 Tier. Unless new images or audio are added the final translation is in scripts.rpa, a file that can be swapped without dealing with the media files.

Compressed and uncompressed version is NOT the same.
Compression by design strips information out to save space or did you think the 5 Gigs was just junk? Audio and Image quality is reduced to achieve this and some people would prefer to simply get the better version even if it's larger in size.

New update available on itch.io is not that hard to post either.

If he's afraid that Patreon will pull the game because it has incest then he should really look into diversifying by adding other crowdfunding platforms like SubscribeStar.

To be honest though it looks like they are likely using copyrighted music without permission as there should be a bit in About about Artists used even if they are free tracks not even mentioning the tracks from other commercial sources, stripping the Ren'Py legal notice likely is a violation of various copyrighted intellectual works of Ren'Py Tom and code he used, Koikatsu while they say developers can use their art a legal notice saying they do I believe is also required, and while people don't generally think of it smaller assets like Harold’s Fonts likely also needs a legal notice. There is a reason many real game developers have a longer About Section than "I'm the sole guy that makes this" as a lot of people behind the scenes went into the star wars credits scroll.

Any reason for Patreon to sniff around will likely cause a suspension which Vermelion hiding on Discord isn't going to solve. Not sure if anyone speaks Spanish fluent enough to actually get that across to Vermelion. Patreon will outsource to people that play the game once revenue is noteworthy to them and the opening "Hey, are these my sisters" isn't that hard to miss as there isn't even a patch to obfuscate it.

I talk with Vermelion everyday since im the mod of his Discord group, and he said to me this morning precisely that, the compressed version and the uncompressed is the same, he doesn't do the compression, all the links have the same file, because is insane to download almost 7gb of data. I'm also helping the translation team, correcting some grammatical errors and mistakes, but if you or any other people wants the uncompressed version im 100% sure that he won't have any problem uploading it, if he doesn't update the uncompressed version is because with his actual connection, would last 18 hours in uploading.

The part of "only available for Patreons tier 3 and Members premium" means that he only people who can test the game before is released are Patreons tier 3 and Members premium, not that the uncompressed version is limited to them only.

All the descriptions from his Patreon page are not updated, that was when his Patreon page was an active page, since he received a lot of complaints from Patreon about the content of his game, he doesn't do any kind of announcements, because he reached an agreement with them, and doesn't want his patreon page to be deleted, that's why he encourages people to migrate from Patreon to But me a Coffee

He already created an "itch.io" and "Buy me a coffee" account, because he is working with paypal, and suscribestar doesn't support Paypal payments.
