VN Ren'Py Abandoned My Sweet Neighbors [v0.12] [Pandelo]

[riddikk91]

I wish we could give negative thanks sometimes... going by some of the posts I have read here over the past year or so, there are a lot of "entitled" people around... sheesh!!

I hope Pandelo's mother recovers well - I'm not a patron so he can get back to doing the game whenever he wants!! LOL!!!

Well, it wouldn't have been f95zone, if there wasn't a comment about how the dev is just lazy.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised that the Response to the sad News is overwhelmingly supportive.
That probably means that a dev can get a bit of cred if he does indeed deliver significant content over the years.

Of course I'm a bit sad that the release will be delayed until sometimes in January, but way worse is of course the failing health of pandelo's mother.
I hope I don't get similar news for at least a few more years.

If you read this, pandelo, my best wishes for your family, especially your mom and for yourself.
You're doing the right thing here, being there for your mother, just take the time you need and don't let any disparaging voices tell you otherwise.

All in all there seem to be quite a few games which are running late or have postponed their updates until next year.
It's a pity, but what can you do. TBH, even if there aren't any dire circumstances, just like most of us, most devs will probably spend time with their loved ones and recharging over the holidays.
They are just humans after all.

As cliché as it might sound, I think Christmas is a big part of many of the delays. Game dev or not, the weeks leading up to Christmas can be really stressful (at least, they've been so for me and much of my social circle) and the time and energy you have to sink into the preparation for the holidays, as well as the holidays themselves, can leave you exhausted. Taking time off during the holidays is perfectly acceptable and, in my opinion, should be encouraged.

There will always be people who piss and moan about this and though F95 is full of patient and wonderful people, it is, sadly, also home to a number of cancerous turbo-dweebs.

I could understand if Pandelo had acted fraudulent, slacked on content, stayed out of touch or engage in other scummy behaviour (because there are patreon developers/artists/whatever who frequently engage in such behaviour), but he's been nothing but genuine and delivered quality content with each update... and he seems to work on this project out of a genuine desire to create a lasting product, rather than just shill for cold cash.

I know family comes first but couldn't you at least update us on your mom's condition and when you'll be back at work? like...she's doing better and I'll resume work after New Years

Well, he did say that the Patreon page unpauses at the beginning of January and that the new version will come out in the same month. That's pretty good as far as timeframes go, since heart attacks and recovery don't usually give you a schedule as to when the patient, in this case Pandelo's mother, is back in good health.

All the best Pandelo, hopefully you can spend a nice and relaxing Christmas and New Years with the family.

Yeah, why don't you update a bunch of strangers on the internet about the severe condition your mother is in.
I'm sure you have nothing better to do and nothing but keeping us informed should matter to you. (warning, this is sarcasm).

I mean, wtf?
Would you want to update some guys on the internet about your mom's condition if she was seriously ill, so they can know when you will start working on the porn game you are developing again, which they are playing for free btw?


This is exactly what people are talking about when it comes to entitlement.
Show some fucking empathy.

By two middle aged adults? I don't think so.

Maybe if both were hardcore protestants they might wait a year?

 

[botc76]

It's one of the favourite weapons in my arsenal.

I don't now KARATE, but i do now CRAZY, and i'm not afraid to use it.....

[TNT3]

sorry to hear about your mum wishing her well and you and your a happy holidays and a sweet new year

 

[BigLurker]

I dont care about monthly updates. Finish the game when you think its ready. Or the update is ready.

And real life, is far more important than the ranting internet.
Stay strong!

 

[ExcaliburLegend]

Have to add my well wishes to your mother too, Pandelo. And if you can find it, some peace and joy going into the new year.
