Oh no you don't try to lie like that, your next game is NOT free. How do I know this, because you said it yourself: "I am in the early stages of working on some RPGMaker game concepts. I've got a few artists on board so we'll see where that goes! Unlike FS&S, this game will not be available for free."

This game is dead as like every other vn left on an indefinite hiatus never returns and is a cheap way to give a false illusion that it has a possibility of coming back. Don't try to wiggle yourself out of this, you've lost the passion for this passion project: "it's not time efficient to be working on passion projects purely for the passion." Finally releasing a free demo does NOT make the game free, it just makes the advertisement free.

You should honestly calm down a bit. I can sympathize with being worried for a project to be abandoned without a word after months of silence, left in a limbo, i saw too many, but this is not the case. Really, you are talking as if you were in his mind, but you didn't even work on the game, know him personally and maybe aren't even in the discord.

He may or may not change his mind about his next projects being exclusive or not (this one is free after all, patrons are just a version ahead) and he isn't scamming anyone. Also, he had his delays from 0.1 to 0.2 too, but he did deliver, didn't he? And he was chill about replying when questioned about it, i assure you.

Free to not believe us, move on and keep an eye on this or not, your choice, but don't come say it's dead like it's a fact, thank you.

Normally I would let something like rainbowyoshi's comment be the end of it, but the accusation that I lied is false and should be clarified.

Nowhere have I said these projects will be free.
You said it would be strictly patreon only. I said it will not be patreon exclusive. Both of these terms mean it will be only on Patreon, which is not the case. These projects will be purchasable on Itch, and possibly elsewhere.

Looking at your comment history on other VNs, you seem to be the type that expects others to make content for you, for free, and then gets unreasonably disappointed when the creator has other priorities. I appreciate that people have enjoyed FS&S, but I need to make rent and graduate uni at the moment. Right now I cannot justify the time it takes to work on these projects if I do not receive income. I value artists and pay them accordingly. I will continue to do so.

Please do not interact with my projects in the future if you will bring this level of immaturity.

The sheer amount of hypocrisy in this comment is astounding. I would like to see arguments how are you mature based on your careless attitude to your own projects.

> Right now I cannot justify the time it takes to work on these projects if I do not receive income.

THEN. DON’T. START. THE PROJECT!

> you seem to be the type that expects others to make content for you, for free, and then gets unreasonably disappointed

People have an absolute right to expect whatever was advertised, so stop trying to gaslight them.

Bro hasn't figured out how LIFE works yet 😭 Sometimes shit just happens and things just get delayed, dipstick. That's just how it is.

I diagnose you with entitlementitis and jobless behavior.

I would love to see what sh!t VN you try to make. A huge majority of the VNs on this site are passion projects. If you're so bent out of shape, how about you get off your ass, go to steam, and I don't know; freaking pay for a complete VN if it matters to you so much. If you truly cared about a VN being made by an up and coming creator you'd understand that life doesn't stop for them just because they make VN as a passion project. Sometimes they need to focus on life (like school, their job, or a family which I imagine you have none of with the way you talk). It's pretty normal for some VN creators to go on haitus for those reasons, they might fall out of love for the project, or find that reworks didn't pan out. This is being made by an individual in concert with a small group of artists, a composer, and some people helping with programming etc. Not a full on company, so things can happen. Also it is normal practice for VN creators on here to request DONATIONS via patreon and other sites to help pay for those that assist with the VN and in exchange they get early access to updates while public access is a month later usually. The money does go into the VN but it doesn't always guarantee completion. Again go to steam and PAY for complete VNs if it matters to you so much. Your lack of common sense and money (you broke a55 loser) yet abundance of entitlement is astounding.
