Lags would you consider creating a Patreon or subscribestar? Since your purchases are down, there isn't anyway to support you (I think). I think it would help you filter out the people who aren't necessarily wishing you to succeed.


Regardless, hope all is well, please take a bit to think about your health and know that a majority of people here want to see you succeed in what you want to do!

I asked him many times and he always refused. His reasoning would be that if he got payed mountly, he'd become more lazy. Its sad

I've seen developers getting lazy once they have regular cash flow or their game become famous. Just making sure this doesn't get to my head. Not getting any money for 3 months is bad too but I don't wanna quit because of it as it will ruin indie developer reputation even further.

Once I'm done, I will still make non erotic games but will find another hobby to financially rely so group like collective shat don't fuck up things for me.

The first time I found you was through College Brawl
it was short and fun to play and had quite a variety of nice pixel sex poses even  bought it twice because I wasn't aware how Itch worked back then... xD

Then came Hailey Treasure Adventure first time I kind of liked spelunker type of game because of hentai content
during this time you also seemed to be working on Lustful Spirit Hunt, I always had trouble understanding the mechanic but luckily was kind of brute forcible with the cheats to identity the target which was huge help.

However at this point you seemed to be working on 3 games at once which seemed like a lot of workload stress, it's also the time period you started having a lot of arguments with people on Itch, Made me question why you work on 3 projects at once + all the back and forth commenting seemed to have a negative impact on you. Still been watching you and hoping you would get a grip to continue the work you do
the whole NTR stuff and all never been a problem for me I just look at it from a simple perspective. I see a Guy I see a Girl and I want to see Hentai action should be more then enough to hopefully play/enjoy a game without claiming having to complain about potential cheating/NTR because you never see another dude and if you do they  usually seem to be occupied with another Girl.

But I just wanted to say I hope you continue your amazing work unless you feel satisfied until you have delivered the game as how you wanted it to be and that would be it. just seeing how things went from how you more or less started out and how things have turned out just looks like a lot of pressure.

Well I've been juggling between things since College Brawl. College Brawl took me one year to complete as I would do 1-2 levels then go to making erotic animations for TS3. Same story for Survive which was complete in 6-7 months.

After that began working on Magic Ring. Wrote a story, designed a few character, levels and first few mission... then looking at how much long it would take decided to work in it at least an hour everyday. Then I began working on HTA so at the time I was doing four things. HTA, TS3 animations, a non erotic game for a friend and Magic Ring.

Once HTA was remade from scratch, at the time was trying my hand at a new alien hunting game and later a farming game but wasn't motivated to continue so dropped and decide to complete HTA somehow then think of the future. During this time CB Remake was as a sidd project dropping TS3 animations and a non erotic game. Played Elden Ring. Liked the game enough to reignite my ambition of making games. Tried different projects again. Survive 2, Survive 0, My Hot Neighbor, Infection(Play as zombie girl), Mirror world. All had many frames of main characters done but not one stuck around. At the time I was playing Phasmophobia and a video of someone explaining how ghost hunting worked. Decided to try and LSH was made which still listed as my project. If it wasn't out for sell it would have been cancelled too. Every other side activity was dropped at this point. HTA and LSH became the perfect thing I can juggle between.

LSH Expansion was planned with Tess. Way to unlock it was suppose to be funding Tess's Ghostpedia. It was a secret until it's going to be dropped. Then had a couple of life threatening situation which made me wanna tell Magic Ring story before I anything happened to me. Found out LSH is kind of like Magic Ring. Well not full of Magic Ring then at least I could do important stuff from that story. I've been telling people Masuo is protagonist of Magic Ring so there's no need to worry as if you would play that game you'd wanna fuck Luna. Then someone said should have made Magic Ring first then. Worked on LSH Ringman and it did helped quelling anger of a few people except the one that always has pitchfork in hand.

So in short I've been always working on multiple things since the beginning. Just now it's all my projects.


I still remember how it went downhill since LSH NTR scandal. I was polite with the person on the opposite  end thinking just you wait until Magic Ring is out, (I'm using analogy for following few sentences to keep my sanity) But then they used 'You are into playing FPS games... you must be a murder' analogy for NTR content. I said fuck it, people calling me rich is not gonna make me rich so just ignore it they began attacking defender of my game. That was the final straw. I think since then I'm more aggressive towards negative feedback and block anyone talking shit over the game. Especially if someone is hating on Masuo or Ringman game. The only criticism I think valid is Superhunt thing but that's part of the game that can't be changed now. In every other way, Ringman is a better game. As for quest the thing hindering the game would be it's gradual updates which changes stuff in Computer, Companion Data or somewhere else that people wouldn't think to read again.

Yeah I've just always been wondering because you seemed like a great person to just converse with or get an idea how you think or like to progress. Just saw the whole situation kinda going bad slowly but surely which may have also caused the pauses in between updates for any of the projects you had going.

I'm just hoping you can maintain the passion to finish your current ongoing project and perhaps future projects we are unaware off.
but glad to hear your somewhat taking care of yourself to filter out negativity, if it isn't constructive feedback but just ranting/accusing then its not worth the time.
But hope you are doing well regardless of all that has and is going on.

Anyone with a brain can see how much effort and passion you put into your games. And the reasonable amongst us are more than happy to wait as long as it takes to complete ringman, as we know what ever you had to the game and story will be worth it

I also want to draw NSFW art/animations and collective hags are ruining everything especially in the west as they tend to be more into violence than naked bodies and erotica than Europe. But if I wanted it to be my job than I would atleast try to finance it a little bit so I would not be struggling with other life challenges. 
Just coming back from work is quite a lot and to imagine to basically hop into another right away seems exhausting to me, if I should be doing it almost for free.
But still I kinda get where you are coming from 

This is very true. There is one developer I highly recommend checking out . Deimus and his game Town of Magic. Dude has a good consistent following and makes decent money to focus on the game and is able to get updates out every 3-4 months I think. I love your work and hope you're actually able to make this into something. HTA is like one of my absolute favourite nsfw games out there. If I read correctly you're rebuilding it and I am 100% behind you whatever you do with it. If I hate to wait another year or two for it I will. I'm just excited it is going to get focused on again soon
