Hi there, I can't seem to figure out how to leave the apartment! I've picked up the note and hit every button on the keyboard by the stairs. Could you help me out? Thank you!
Hii, you have to press "E" on your keyboard! We definitely should add information about it in game
Thank you!
Not at all, it wasn't directly you, but others of the dev members decided that you all won't be working on this project. After discussion and many unnecessary comments, we decided to kick you out of the discord server because we still wanted to end this project without any toxicity. It was pretty depressing seeing how the team collapsed, especially with what you've done by the time. However, after a discussion with all of the devs, korke asked straightly about your position in future development, and you've denied it. That's why we Had to ask Wierdous for help. I am sorry for this situation - you must know we wanted to go on.
Ye "kicked" after you flamed everyone (mainly Alexia, calling her really, REALLY bad and being sexist to her) 2 days before deadline saying that you won't finish the game because you had not enough time.
I am not going to defend Kebab for what he said.
You clearly do not understand our intentions and why we decided to leave this project. A message 2 days before the deadline was about that we can not finish the game if nearly non-existent management keeps adding and changing ideas on the whim. After your response which was ignorant and unprofessional, all of ( at the time ) Devs finally decided to tell you how they feel. How much this project have been a train-wreck from a start. Most of them through well constructed arguments, but some also filled with angry insults thanks to your lackluster response to serious questions.
I am not trying to whitewash our faults, but we did what we were asked for and even if we had problems we still tried to do something about it and deliver this game.
Aight, as yet another developer, one that actually articulated our feelings in a logical and calm way during forementioned shitstorm that resulted in us being removed from the discord server, I shall start with our feelings, we are not mad for either being removed or not being mentioned in credits, we find it rather funny.
But about the creative process itself, I do agree with some of the accusations we have been faced with, yes, we could have done more. I wish not to double down on what Kouht said, but we have lacked any reference materials AND communication between coders and the rest of the team, despite our best efforts like calling meetings or requesting materials for first two weeks.
What's more, we have not decided to leave the project unfinished, nor did we suggest we would, all we did was speaking out loud our estimation. Our signal was taken by Mr Korke as an "inting of the project" as per his words, the misunderstanding led to further antagonization of both groups and a constructive discussion was proven impossible, despite my efforts.
As of a closing note, we will soon be reporting the project as big part of it was a result of our work which had been used without our knowledge or consent.
I hope you have enjoyed reading this essay as much as I have enjoyed writing it, have a good day.
I understand your frustration, but like I said you were faced with a decision to stay or to leave - about the code that you have written - there were some things from the code that you as the dev team had written - but we have no possible way to check who wrote what, besides that Wierdous with korke rewrite code that you've left. Furthermore, you agreed at the beginning to be a part of the team and you are saying now, after submission that you don't want us to use this code? This sounds ridiculous. We would much prefer for you to stay and end this game, for us it wasn't an easy task to understand, fix and rewrite code without the knowledge of the devs who wrote it. I am sorry, I don't want to make a drama out of it, I thought that we were closed on this topic.
