Someone's leaving comments on my #DetroitBecomeHuman #Reed900 fic and it's making me happier than it should >_>
Anyway, has posted a #TQGame sprite preview on his Patreon: patreon.com/ruisselait/pos
I'll post some screenshots here as well once I start staging the game

Anyway, the point is... please don't be an ass to indie devs? We're not big corporations
I'm literally a one-man shop trying to do everything with as much transparency as I can, and apparently that's still not enough
It's okay that games exist that aren't for you
Be kind(4/4)

Around the same time, I get a notice from itch that my games face delisting from the site because they don't have a trailer video or gif
I literally have 19 games on the site, and this is the first time I've gotten this notice
It could just be a coincidence, but 🙄 (3/4)

Someone emailed itch support to complain about me not delivering on a preorder (presumably AAGS) and them never having "heard anything about it", and subsequently calling ZRWP "not up to par"
Apparently my monthly progress updates aren't enough? (2/4)

I know this is bad timing given I just launched a game, but I'm going to disappear from Twitter for a while because I'm extremely upset
With preemptive apologies for the upcoming rant, but I just need to vent (1/4)

So I thought this was obvious, but apparently it's not
For any of my preorder games (currently #AAGS and #ZRWP), I post monthly devlogs on the itch page until the game releases
You can find those here:

At least AAGS, ADTF, and ZRWP are already Renpy 8 at launch 😓
Shoutout to for doing an amazing job preserving compatibility... the python-heavy ZRWP involved changes to only four lines of code to get over to 8 from 7.5 (changes to filter() and __hash__ in Python 3)

I feel like I need to go back through and rebuild all my old games (Whale's Waldo, Xenopathy, Charles 2.0, EBAE, AFS, YAGS, YAGS: Booty Call, ZAGS, etc) in Renpy 8.0.3, even if just for new Android compatibility
Maybe after I get ZRWP out the door... 🙄
