I've decided to quit FoE

It's been many months since any real progress was made on FoE, and from where I stand it doesn't look like it's going to get better in the foreseeable future.

I feel like if I worked on any of my projects for FoE, I'd be writing into a vacuum. That is a terrible feeling and it is not something I'm willing to do.

I believe it's better to have closure than to leave things up in the air, so I'm quitting FoE.

What does this mean for FoE? That means every project of mine that's not already in the game is cancelled, effective now. And the projects that have made it in the game will receive very limited support from myself if support is called for. Otherwise the docs that are on the forum will remain available for a couple weeks, and then they will be shut down.

The projects that belong to me that are being cancelled are: Kadjamyrlonix, Mayflower, Byron, Issen, Sissy, Jin (This one doesn't have a doc here) and Terry's birthing scenes. There might be more, but these are the ones I can recall off the top of my head.

Thanks everyone for the support thus far, it always brought a smile to my face whenever someone commented on one my projects. I wish you all the best of luck on this new year.

Ah cripes, this really stinks. You're characters were a major draw for the game. I'm really going to miss your work man. Thanks for the honest notice and while I wish you were going to stick around, as a fellow writer I can't say I don't relate to not wanting to write in a vacuum. Best of luck in your future endeavors

That's unfortunate. Still, best luck to ya.

Ah, since you were a little vague, dropping FoE but still on the forums? (just curious, since it sounds a bit like a clean break from everything)

For the time being, yes. I'm looking to either start my own thing or find another game I could write for. When I find either of them, it's unlikely I'll be around. Can always reach me through PMs tho.

All of this is very sad news, FoE had a great deal of promise. I wonder though, is there any interest in writing for TiTS?

I tried writing for TiTS before when it was new, but I think Fen kept forgetting about my projects. Which is understandable, given the popularity of TiTS. I had 2 projects when I quit, of which one was poorly built and would have needed to be scrapped, and another which was like 90% completed when I quit (it was missing only the pregnancy notes and birthing scene). It was Makius, a sergal-like alien MD, which was supposed to be located in the junkyard planet. It was in an implementable state prior to the completion of the junkyard planet too.

I told Fen he was free to implement this one since I was satisfied with the quality of the project at the time, but sadly I don't think he ever got around to it.

Afterwards, when Dr Badger and New Texas came along, I just lost interest in it entirely.

On the same subject, I also tried CoC2, but I couldn't quite get into the setting.

So the hunt continues...

That's a damn shame, I'm sure they just slipped under Fen's radar, I expect a lot of people would like to see more of your content in-game. Best of luck anyway :v

Aw damn that quite not happy news. Well still since reasons was fair and clear I not suprised you decided to fly away from FoE. Best wishes on finind new thing you may want to be involved with. Hopefully you would by then drop some link or smth for us to see what attracted LucaDoc attention.

This is regrettable, but in the circumstances perfectly understandable.
Frankly your post in the submission section were pretty much the "candle in the window" during the long night that is the FOE hiatus.
I thank you for your work and wish you well in your subsequent endeavors.
All I ask is that if you find a suitable project that you drop us an informative line

Now that I think about it @LukaDoc do you know if QB also plans to leave FoE? I recall after some time you both tends to work on projects as team.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

@Woider It's been over a year since then, I'm not sure Fen would be willing to go back and implement Maki. In either case I don't mind it either way, wether he decides to implement it or not, the doc is still there. Fraid the link got buried with the old forums, and to that I give you this.

@Akhter13 and @Ormael I'll be sure to drop a link, wherever I wind up. I heard Xadera is looking for help again in Nimin, so I might go there. Other than that there's a few contacts my friends have suggested that I will get in touch with eventually. And if all else fails, I'll do my own thing. If that happens to be the case, it will be much simpler than FoE was, even in its initial stages.

On @Quiet Browser we're partners, but I still can't speak for him. However it is quite probable that he will be going with me. Last I heard he shares the same feelings I do in regards to FoE.

Thank you all once again, it's a damn shame things had to end this way. I really liked FoE, but there's nothing I can do about it.

Yeah I also been feeling FoE was heading good direction till real life sucker punched Alder to the point he put in limbo developing of his game. Maybe he would in this yead do some progress but it would be still probably without you or QB. Whichever new project you will pick I count it will give you satisfaction of well done job. Only sad thing I would be it's that not implemented Terry new content. Ahh well life never been fair.

It's a damn shame. Your writing was one of the best things in the game and it does not bode well for its future. Which is a shame because I loved FoE (it really proved you can both make a porn game and have genuinely good, well-written stories and characters).

So Nimin is getting a reboot? What's up with that?

And are there any other projects worth following? Most of what I've seen was half-abandoned, abandoned or crap. I never could get into TiTS, and while I did have a nice time in that game once or twice I never could get into it for the long run. And what's going on with CoC 2? Is it in planning stage or is something being worked on?

One project worth noting is Carnal Souls. Sure, it did have a ton of drama during the funding, but the creator seems quite determined to get it going, altough they did hit some financial difficulties and a coding wall currently. However, chances are they'll get past them, and, from what I've noticed, the main writer has a fun style reminescent of Terry Pratchett, out of all things. It's much more interesting than the average, dry "my dick your mouth" hentai RPG tone and I think it could be interesting to write for them. If, of course, they'll get something released, which has yet to happen. However, if they do get the ball going, it might be a good shot.

Something is being worked on.
Wha?.. CoC2? Don't tell me that you guys are planning to start working on a new project while your old one is far from being completed... I really don't want to see TiTS becoming full of "This NPC should've been your waifu, but autor gave up on this game, so it's just a few scenes and your broken dreams" characters...

I'm pretty sure TiTS is probably gonna be his main priority before anything majorly CoC2 related comes up. :/

CoC2 would be worked by Savin and Gedan in breaks from both of them working on TiTS. Will it affect TiTS progress...well when CoC2 start to be in shape to have builds released to public we would see.

Shame, I would've liked to see Issen and Byron in the game. Oh well, good luck with your next endeavour!

You should post it on the event submission forums. A male companion(can't say I like the "turn him into a chick" when pregnant part of it but the rest seems cool) is something sorely needed and you might bring the attention of a non-dev coder who will be able to do it.

This is unfortunate news, but understandable; things are out of your control. I really enjoyed your writing in FoE, you helped set FoE apart from all other text-based smut games, even CoC. I really look forward to whatever new project you work on.

Sad things turned out this way, but there's not much anyone can do. Anyways, I wish you the best of luck.

I guess nobody will leave TiTS in favour of CoC2, but I have to say I am hyped as I preffer a fantasy setting over monster-girl filled sci-fi.

How many male companions are there in TiTS? And fuckable males in general? Especialy for m/m... ?

Respectively, none and around a dozen. Practically all m/m content is fan-written, which results in not a lot of it being in the game.
