I think this is generally good advice, but exceptions exist when we're talking about specific fetishes. Kink wise, it might make sense to compare it to bondage? The person getting tied up tries to escape, but the fun is in the helplessness that comes from failing to do so.

Of COURSE having a demo is an indication that a project will make it to the end. EVERY successful project I've seen has started with a working demo. That's Step 1. You haven't finished Step 1 yet and you're asking for money. Patreon is a risky platform for supporting game development. There's...

There is a public demo now, and it's pretty bad, but that's to be expected this early in development. They said they've improved the writing but decided not to add those changes to the public demo, which I guess is a positive step because the writing is wretched and there's way too much of it. I...

From what I read, and I think S-Purple actually confirmed this, H-Bomb actually wanted to hire a project manager but S-Purple vetoed the idea.

Is there a particular reason why you wanted the combat to be asymmetrical? It seems kind of weird that you win via punching and your opponent wins via sexing, and it also seems like your opponent would win 100% of the time if they didn't bother attacking your stamina and just went for only lust...

Cathouse Tale was made by rote amateurs with no clue what they're doing, and the game predictably collapsed into a big pile of drama and will probably never be finished. Games are hard to make, and if you want professional programmers and artists working on them, they're going to want to be paid...

I think you could make a fun farming sim with sex. I think you could make a fun dungeon crawler with sex. I think you could make a fun breeding sim with sex. I think doing two of the three at the same time would be challenging but doable. I think doing all three at once is a terrible idea.

Personally, I'd call the proposed farming sim element to be the first instance of bloat. I don't think very many of your backers have a turnip fetish, and I think it'll be a time consuming feature to design and implement in a way that's rewarding and entertaining without bogging down the rest of...

If they can actually produce a reasonable demo before their deadline I'll accept that this is a good faith effort to produce a game and not an attempt to milk the last few pennies out of BS's corpse. Even if it's not a project I'd be interested in backing myself - I don't think they realize the...

No one's forcing people to send money to Nigerian princes either, but the assholes who take the money are still scammers. If his timetable was moved up unexpectedly he needs to suspend the account until he's ready. But seriously, the project he's pitching is no less than three times more...

I think he should suspend the account immediately until he has a prototype to demonstrate. There are people who use Patreon to fund projects they're passionate about, and there are people who use Patreon to do the bare minimum amount of work and abuse the generosity and goodwill of strangers to...

They don't even have a programmer, so I wouldn't expect a demo any time soon. Or even an ETA on a demo. Does anyone even know what platform they're developing for?

"Dear rubes who were still giving away money to a dead game years after it had made any meaningful progress. Here's a brand new game to throw money at! We don't have a demo or any meaningful progress to show and we haven't even hired a programmer, but we'll take your money anyway! The first...

He's opened his new Patreon with no demo no release date and no design document, accepting thousands of dollars in automatic monthly payments with no obligation to actually put forth a playable product, trying to capitalize on Breeding Season's momentum before the dust settles. That's a scam.

The project has no gameplay, no demo, apparently their programmer just quit, and they're getting $2.5k+ per month. At some point people are going to have to learn to stop throwing money at people like this. If they wanted to earn people's trust they'd set their Patreon to pay out per update...

Honestly anything more specific than "big" "medium" "small" or similar adjectives is just noise to me. Especially once you get to larger-than-humanly-possible I just start glossing over the numbers.

There's no way to transfer saves from one version to the next, is there? I'm sort of trapped in a cycle of "Hey, new version! Time to play again!", "Man the old content takes a while to get through, I'll put it aside and come back to it later when I have more time", "Oh, there's a new version is...
