Try to think about this. Those who had complained a lot about BD, majority of them may be non-paying players. At this moment, I am non-paying player. I rarely ever complain or speak negative to the developers for being late, not communicating, and/or etc. I would like to pitch in, however at this moment, I cannot. However I do post some comments here and there for the developer(s), I do not expect them to respond, do an modification, etc. I also like to help others on certain issues in the game. Overall, I usually try to avoid posting negative things.
Pfft . . . haha . . . hahahahahah! An apology that people have to wait one more day for an update to one of the best (if not THE best--don't know, haven't played them all) harem games on the site. Oh the horror. Well, I didn't even know an update was coming soon. I was just checking this thread like I do from time to time. I'm just over the moon that an update's coming soon at all.
I totally agree, but from my understanding he's been back to work in full force for a while now. So he may as well be compensated for all the work he's doing.
I have know several people are like that. Every once in a while they hit the brick wall and become depressed. When I do see them, I try to communicate positive. Also try hard to listen to what they need to say. Sometime they just need right people to talk to. Few of them just need their space. We just need to give it time to allow them to overcome it.
I'm not a Patron either but I was honestly just expressing my concerns for BD because of the big update and the fact he hasn't been paid in months.Try to think about this.

Some of us do not understand how each games been develop and the whole process. Someone like Braindrop (BD) is a solo owned developer. He runs his own process of this project. He had stated that this game is a four to six years project. How I see this that this game will be a big game. Also impressive how BD doing all these tasks for the project. Looking at other games, the developers partners with few people to help build the game. There is nothing wrong going either directions. There are always PROS and CONS for solo and team development for game projects.
I am sure that BD is doing his best to get his rhythm back after very months. Give it time and I am sure he will. When that happens, I am sure he would start doing smaller updates that he can release more often. Mean while, we just need to give BD his space and time to recoup his rhythm.
Have a great day.
If it were up to me, he should have been "paid" for the entire time, his work on the game and the joy it creates while playing can hardly be outweighed with money.
Technically, developers and graphic designer need high processor/cores and RAM to do their designing. The multimedia (graphic/video/audio) demands a lot. I did a bench-test on someone systems when they were having issue and was able to see why they needed custom system than the traditional systems that been provided to the employees in the company.
That sounds like Penny to me. She is one of my favorites too. I loved that car scene it's one of my favorties in the game although the Zoe Pole scene and of course the Pen scene are awesome too. I can't forget about the pool house with Jamie and the party room with Katie. Damn there are some hot lewd scenes in this game.
That is a advantaged as a solo own developer of this game. BD may have reasonable saving over period of time developing this game. BD get 100% of the fund. While other games, it may be split up by smaller percentages. BD should know what his budget is over time and can determine his decision to put the Patron on hold.
BD has stated several times this is not about the money for him it is about making it because he enjoys doing it. Once I got to see how great of a guy he really is I just had to find a way to support him. He does not deserve all the negative things that have happened to him, and I hope his string of bad luck finally comes to an end, and he can just enjoy making the game again.
"My animated signature has all my favorites in order starting with Jamie, Stacy, Shauna, Bailey, Alexis, and Penny."
It is not good enough, you need to do better.
I understand that completely, but a man has to make a living as well. I don't post here much but when I do i'm really just trying help the guy. As soon as I saw he might pause his pledges again I just felt like I had to talk him out of it lol.
*Penny senses, tingling*
Jamie's definitely my favorite, but for once in a VN, there's not a single girl I don't like. Best looking, and wants you to sleep with everyone.
Trust me a lot of his patreon members keep telling him to not pause it any more too.
Yeah, I'm a Patreon member and I see no reason for him to not charge for October just because D8 won't be ready for the end of the month.
