I'm sure there must be a financial reason he's desperate, people generally don't do things for 0 reason. If anything, people's reasoning is usually quite logical.

Ahh yes, 'talking to children', but also proceeds to insult the name of an alt account for no particular reason. I am indeed a game developer, I have released 2 games for sale and busy on a third. I have entered about 15 or so gamejams (mostly ludum dare) in my time alive, and I have 14 years coding experience. Of course, that's all dick waving and doesn't really mean anything nor do you believe it. But at least I do actually have experience working on games, working with publishers, and most importantly for this conversation, have experience working with fans :P

It does make sense you'd not think I'd sound like a gamedev, considering you have yet to publish a game at all. Our mindsets will be quite different that I'm more than a decade ahead of you in my career.

'Account was made an hour ago' and yours was made 6 days ago :) I decided to make an account upon seeing lipstor harassing mofu as it irritates me to see that sort of thing happen to other game devs. I don't care how warranted it is, they can handle it civilly rather than whatever the hell is going on here.

I have said much the same point as you, about feature creep and such, if you read my comment.

Mofu does indeed have a job, which is why I motion for people to be nicer. I've been in the same boat, working full time while having to use all my spare time for game development. It's very stressful and quite hellish, it doesn't help when the person who's been your biggest fan and most useful support suddenly turns on you.

Keep in mind, none of this time I have said that lipstor's points are invalid. While I don't agree with lipstors methods of relaying his opinions, I do agree that rushing a game can lead to a worse outcome. And I'm fully aware of the issues feature(I guess fetish in this case?) creep causes. If mofu has been doing the things lipstor has accused of him, there are far better ways to handle it, than spamming comments in a way that comes across as a crazed fan.

As for saying Lipstor puts in twice as much work, I don't buy this. It takes roughly 2000 hours to code a decently sized indie game, judging from my own experience. And that's excluding all the art mofu would have to draw as well. I can't imagine how someone simply helping support the game is somehow doing more than that? Honestly I'm a bit shocked you could even say this as a gamedev yourself, you know full well how much effort goes into making a polished experience.

I'm only 'accusing' you of stuff I've seen you do in this comment section, which is available for anyone to see, so it's more like calling you out. Regardless of the true scenario, you still aren't being decent or kind to the person you apparently value so highly. Don't you care about how you're making mofu feel? I can imagine he's stressed enough having to work both a job, develop a game, and deal with his fans, which includes you. You worked so hard to make things easier for him, and now you're suddenly making it harder? All because he upset you in some way?

I can't exactly use my work account to comment here on a hentai game :P

They still doesn't oblige him to do everything you say, he can still create the game however he thinks is best. Giving someone money and helping them doesn't suddenly entitle you to anything.

From the comments you've been making, you look like an obsessed fan who's having something of a break down.

As you have pointed out, I indeed know nothing of your situation with mofu, but if your response is to spam the comment section of his page to try and ruin his reputation, then I don't believe you're taking a sane course of action. It looks more like you're begging for his attention

I can't really use my real account, but thanks for making this game and your others, they've been great. I enjoy seeing your progress as a fellow gamedev :)

I don't know the exact situation between you and lipstor, but I'd like to give some advice I've learnt: You don't have to listen to what everyone fan says, whether lip or someone else. You don't owe your fans anything other than a completed game that's made the way YOU want it to be. Don't let others guilt you into adding stuff. You already make great games, you don't need to appease everyone, they will still like your game!

I've had my own share of fans similar to lipstor, who accuse me of stuff without knowing the true scenario, and without realising how hard it is to have job while making games, so I can probably guess how you feel.

Good luck with further development, and don't feel too discouraged!
