I do like this game, but to be fair, so many games just stop without warning, when one doesn't get updated in 5 months we automatically assume the worst. I am hoping you can make future updates come out faster. I mean look at it from our perspective, only 2 updates a year. It's not very encouraging. At that rate we will be lucky if the game is finished in 10 years!

Also, about joining your discord....

You know how many creators say the same thing? You all seem to think your game is the only one we play. If I was was a member of the discord for every game I am currently following/playing I would have to be in I think over 50 different discords. I play these games for entertainment, if keeping track of them becomes a second job then it's time to follow less games and the ones that are updated the least get dropped first.

For me personally I have memory problems and I can't remember what was happening and have to start over each time when updates are this far apart. So, please try to make your updates closer together. Do this and I will see about your rating/review.

Oh maaaan, I dogma made 0.3 in half a year, if that's my desire I can complete development in a year too, but there's no desire to be a single game author

0.1 - June 15, 2023 (1250 renders)

0.2 - September 24-26, 2023 (2100-2200 renders)

0.3 - December 31, 2023 (2600-2700 renders)

What you say is other people's problems - not mine, why should I even care if a player has a hard time joining my discord server because of more games? We live in different worlds, my friend.

I live by the credo - said and done, not just saying a lot of words - then doing nothing of what is said

The only resource you can't get back is time and my time is an expensive resource.

My games are my soul and my games are distributed 'for free', if others want something more from me without giving me anything in return - it's disrespectful.

We are all adults and have been taught to respect other people's labor.

You're a game developer too, you understand perfectly well what a hard road it is.

No one said it's easy, but it's fun :D

> For me personally I have memory problems and I can't remember what was happening and have to start over each time when updates are this far apart. So, please try to make your updates closer together. Do this and I will see about your rating/review.

Since when is your memory problem is my problem?

Or rather the way you write, 'you should do this and that', then maybe I'll leave a review..

Excuse me, but in that case I don't need your review, because other players who love me will come and leave a review, and I will forget about you by then :D

If you see an opportunity, you must do it, or others will do it instead of you and take away your right to that opportunity [c]

"there's no desire to be a single game author"
understandable, but also understand that until you finish any game, you're a zero-game author.
"my games are distributed 'for free'"
refer above, "zero-game author".. i appreciate free samples, but i only buy complete games, and my track history shows that clearly. once a game is completed i am more than happy to pay to own a full copy.
but in this genre, there is simply far too much risk in paying a cent for an unfinished game, and the track history of AVN authors also shows that clearly. there are literally dozens of games that i have played free samples of and would have liked to pre-order (cos thats what it is when you pay for an unfinished game) but, i would have been ripped off by those authors who have now either abandoned their games, or gone down the patreon-milking practice of endless "reworks" that barely change a thing and often take years to complete. want an example? have a look at the whole "sylphine" saga which has been in "rework" phase for 5 years now with zero new content released in that time..
your content is excellent, and you can certainly get a 5 star review from me, now, based on the content produced so far, but please keep the above in mind.
this genre has a dirty history of scammers, which affects all devs.

ahahaha
relax bro, my words are like reverse psychology, I saw your review and I respect you <3 THANKS <3
Anyway, I don't want/need your money and the dev's who screwed you for money is a separate topic for a couple hours of conversation
If I needed money rn, I'd come to your house.... (just kidding)

Because to be blunt - I really don't like it when players think that about me because of other dev's (I mostly don't care what anyone thinks of me as long as it doesn't involve my projects, because it's my brainchild, it's my responsibility to protect it :D)

You know.. it's like the first bitter relationship, when you get dumped by a girl and you start thinking about other girls like that.. very painful.........

But I'd love to hear your story in full, if it's not too much trouble, list all the games where dev's screwed you for money

Bro just follow the game, follow the author and you will get the announcement automatically. Also the games need time to be developed, 99% of devs have to work to live, every game is a passion project, expecting a faster rate of delivery is not realistic. Everyone has their problems, have more understanding. Peace out
