I was surprised that someone actually sent him money to sponsor him. He spent eight months making a semi-finished product for testing, and then there was no news or update for the next two months, and disappeared again. If one day this game adds an "abandoned" label, I will not be surprised.

So i'm assuming the light version is for vanilla harem path and the dark version is for NTR?

eh, a little bit but also no. It's way more complicated than that. And as it has been a topic of lengthy discussion, I'm not going to summarize it here. You'll need to read lots of posts.

Damn, I really like the concept of the game, especially with the build-up to the daughter NTR. Huge pity about it being in development hell but this engine really does suck.

If this had to move Renpy I really hope it wouldn't be the case where it takes several years for it to catch up to the content it currently has.

Another mention is that the minigames are about as pleasant as someone throwing bleach into your eyes.

The minigames have been removed as far as I can see. That said, I thought the original cookie game was okay! It was the dev flexing their Godot skills.

I'd rather have something like that to do than have another brain-dead 'HOLD CTRL TO WIN' vanilla Renpy game.

The minigames have been removed? Did I miss an update? The latest TESTVERSION I played still had the games...

The cookie game isn't there anymore and you don't get fired from your job. You just hold down a button and make money. Once you train up certain stats, you get better at holding the button down longer.

i haven't played for a year now, is it worth paying the patreon?
Here's the best answer and analogy I can come up with.

First, no.

Second, imagine someone building a ship. They have the idea down. It looks great on paper. It impresses a lot of people and those people are excited about sailing on the ship. But the ship's owner keeps tearing down the build and starting over. He adds a mast but then takes it down. He adds a stateroom, but then decides he doesn't like the design. He chooses one propulsion system, but then decides there is something better so he dumps the first system and attempts to install another.

All the while the people originally excited about the new ship are losing interest. They become frustrated and some go elsewhere for a different ship. Others stay but complain and as the complaints grow, the negativity starts to drag the project down. Investors leave and the owner now faces attempting to finish the ship with his own money or scuttling the project in frustration.

In the end, the owner is to blame as he failed to realize no project is perfect and what he learns to do or not to do would be best served for his second boat and the one thereafter.

This analogy is great, might even borrow it for the “godson” game
