Release Date Change Sticky

Good afternoon or whichever time due to timezone,

Making this post since most will either ask as to why the change of release date for 1.8 or if it will be similar to 1.7.

No, by no means this should be like the 1.7 case. The main reason for the extension of the release is because of all the changes that have been done to the previous systems not just to make them better but also to start preparations so there is less work to do when the steam release is to happen.

There are changes to the traits systems, transitions, more interactive play with the main concept of taking pictures and a lot more. There's also the fact this was a pretty busy month and quality is always in mind when making changes.

Anyways, please be understanding and remember this, even though is a side project, gets updated regularly. The amount of content it has is the work of a single dev during the spam of a single year. And no, even tho is helped with the use of Ai, is not as simple as gening and thats it, a bunch of manual work is in play.

Have a nice day, be respectful to others, and wait for greatness.


P.S: was decided to make an easier release for everyone by leaving it for the weekend.

Oh, hope everyting is alright, Actally I was planing playing 1.8 during thanksgiving. Keep going, Best wishes

Demon Deals v.07.25 and Starmaker Story 1.8, the current best NSFW games go head to head for our attention this Mid December!!! Who wins you decide 馃檶 

you seem like a man of good taste, good sir
could you recommend more games like this while we wait for the updates?

(+5)

Sorry for the slow response, long day... You will never find games like Starmaker but here are some with OnlyFaps sims elements

  • The Wants of Summer by GoldenGob
  • Family Business by FamilyDev
  • Destroyer by Testoviron
  • Loser by Night City Productions 馃敟馃敟MUST PLAY 馃敟馃敟
  • AlwaysFan by AtemX Game
  • Lust Legacy by JamLiz

Now if you are just looking for bangers outside of Starmaker and Demon Deals

  • Power Vacuum by What? Why? Games
  • Heart Problems by Xenorav
  • Five of a Kind by JorogrArt
  • Foot of The Mountains by SerialNumberComics
  • The Island of Milfs by Inocless

Now you have all your Taffy Tales, your Summer Time Sagas, My Cute Roommates and your Lust Theories but everyone is gonna tell you them anyway so what's the point....

Yep im checking all these out soon

thanks a lot, and foot of the mountains? i tried that some months ago and damn its hella grindy
besides that, i have already checked most of them, except the wants of summer, family business, loser, five of a kind
anyways have a good one, i will check them out

And just like that Demon Deals got pushed back to early January. So I guess Starmaker wins by default 馃槄

Dear CKYMAN!

Please tell me if you have these games that you described.

Can I play them for free, or do they require purchases?

Thank you in advance.

I provided developer names to help search. Some are on itch, others on their own sites or Patreon/SubscribeStar  and some just simply just got wiped out in the great credit card plague so you will have to search the dark corners of Soci internet.  

Dr. Muramasa, could you please tell me if it's possible that DLC will be released after the game's release? Or will the released version be the final version, with no expansions?

(+4)

The plan is for no DLC, not expansions, at least not in the feasible future. There are 3 plans for what the next side project will be, which will be announced after the break period after Starmaker's Steam release. So, it's unlikely to see an expansion in the near future, although one of the possible next projects would be a starmaker spinoff (not the same characters not at peak city) but that remains to be a maybe.

(+1)

A spinoff sounds great. This project looks incredible, and expanding it in different ways would be great. In any case, I'll be hoping for it.

(+1)

Oh no, it's a shame to hear about the release date being changed, but I also understand that we've been too brazen. The game is free, and we should be thankful for the fact that it's being updated.

(+1)

it's ok, don't be so hurry, slow is good

(+2)(-1)

Thank you for your hard work and generosity. That said, I actually hope this game won鈥檛 remain a free project, because it would allow you to invest even more into it. It鈥檚 such an amazing project!

It will not, when it is complete it will be sold on Steam with exclusive content. I am always iffy with the word "free" as well cause at the end of the day we are free beta testers and provide product feedback 馃

Not a dig btw, I 馃挴 agree with every other word Dr.Muramasa said.

when~~~~~~~~~!!!!!

You might want to just not promise a release date til you have a version ready to go. Everyones got egg on their face now...

(+1)

I say, let'em cook, let'em cook, I can wait, not sure why everyone else has gotten borderline rude about having to wait. I like this game just as much, but man.

Well said.

(+3)(-1)

Love the game as well, but at this point might as well set it to february or something, then again if it gets delayed once more, its not gonna be suprising. Its one thing to be "late", keeping on making false release window over and over again is another thing entirely.

(-1)

The core issue is that setting specific deadlines creates misleading expectations. When these are missed, it naturally leads to disappointment and frustration. The approach to communicating updates should be reconsidered.

Youre right here, but also think about that the game is free, and the developer does not charge money for the wait, like it would be on Patreon. If the same situation would happen on Patreon, that would be a different pair of shoes, but here its free, so I would say be grateful for the free piece of GOD Tier game.

(-1)

I understand and have taken all of this into account. From my personal perspective, this argument doesn鈥檛 really hold up in this conversation. I believe that, regardless of the situation, a person should be held accountable for their words. Such disputes can easily be avoided.
If you鈥檙e aware that you likely won鈥檛 meet a deadline, you should avoid announcing specific release dates that you probably can鈥檛 keep. In such cases, it鈥檚 better to keep your audience informed about the development process and avoid mentioning dates altogether if you鈥檙e facing challenges.
Unexpected updates are much more pleasant than situations like this, don鈥檛 you agree?

Yeah alright, fair enough because I also thought about it. Thats a hard counter and I am aslo not sure if its the point to take your side, because I see the price tag of 0, and its alright for me, even if I am getting baited. But like u said these 2 things arent an exuse for each othere, I agree on that one with u!I get ur point

so the steam version will have exclusive content?

1 exclusive character and a quest related

Please call her Gabie for the memes 馃檹 

Cool. Wanted to make sure its worth getting on steam.
