Thank you for your review! I didn't think people were still playing this! To be honest, I haven't touched this since 2017. I almost forgot it existed.

As for the reasons why I abandoned this project:

- Keijo is a copyrighted work so I might get in trouble later on;

- When I released this beta, people didn't seem very interested. Even though I promoted it on Reddit, 4chan, YouTube, anime/manga foruns, etc, I didn't get much feedback;

- Keijo's manga was cancelled a few months after this project was released;

- I got a job as a web developer so I no longer had the time to work on this;

About the beta version: there's only one beta version. The videos on YouTube were named "Keijo!!!!!!!! Fan Game - Beta Version [Number]", but the [number] there is the number of the video, not the number of the version. So for example "Keijo!!!!!!!! Fan Game - Beta Version 5" is the fifth video showcasing the beta version of this fan game. Maybe I should have named them something like "Keijo!!!!!!!! Fan Game (Beta Version) - Example Video [Number]".

Wow that was fast. But wait, if you haven't touched this since 2017 and almost forgot it existed, then why does it say it was updated on September 2nd, 2020? I thought maybe that was when you wrote that you abandoned this project. But yeah for your videos "Example Video [Number]" or "Video [Number]" would've been more clear.

I wouldn't necessarily say people are still playing this just because I did. I was searching to see if a Keijo game was ever made and found this. I guess Keijo didn't do that well and never got an official game. But Dead or Alive Xtreme has a Butt Battle minigame which is very similar. Xtreme 3 even got Keijo swimsuits, but it never got released in North America and Europe. Probably because of prevailing cultural differences and/or because Xtreme 2 didn't sell as well there. A Keijo game might have faced similar problems elsewhere even if it did good in Japan.

"-Keijo's manga was cancelled a few months after this project was released"

"-Keijo is a copyrighted work so I might get in trouble later on"

I understand these reasons, but it's kind of ironic that both of these can be reasons at the same time. You might think that if something was cancelled due to poor performance, that making fan-based works for noncommercial purposes shouldn't be an issue. But alas, it's not that simple and the world can be a cruel place. At least my review serves as some feedback. Maybe it can be insightful for other games that you make or any other people that try playing this. Would like to see this worked on more eventually but I know that's unlikely.
