Development Update #111
🕑 Added 2024-05-27 20:51:50 +0000 UTCAfter the Patreon suspension having leeched most of my mojo, things appear to be back on track again. Development of Episode 20 is coming along, most of the sex scenes have been rendered, more than half of the animations are also done and I'm now mainly posing and rendering action scenes. I'm a little behind on writing, so I'm reserving more time for that in the coming weeks.
Not all good news, I'm afraid. In an earlier update I mentioned wanting to set up my own subscription platform in order to be less dependent on platforms like Patreon. The platform is mostly finished, apart from processing payments. I had a promising intake with a major high-risk credit card processor and also (mutually) signed multiple forms to begin the compliance and integration procedure. Instead of moving things along after those completing those initial forms, the payment processor now isn't responding to any of my emails. As they're a rather big player when it comes to high-risk processing, I'm dreading inquiring at other outfits a little... So not much progress on platform front, I'm afraid.
The other bit of negative news concerns the game that Patreon forced me to remove, so I guess discussing it here is a little moot now. The audio and music update of that game was supposed to be finished by now. The composer would also do the programming side of implementing the audio. Due to unforeseen circumstances, they won't be able to complete this portion of the work, which leaves me in a bit of a pickle. Implementing the audio is quite a lot of work and I don't have time to work on this extensively. The composer has offered to find a third-party programmer to do the remaining work, so I'm hoping that will turn out to be the solution.
The overall feeling isn't very positive at the moment, so I'm just going to focus on TFTUV for the time being.

Yo you got this!
Perverteer
I'm not sure we're talking about the same platform in that case. All of the Buy links on that website go to a "Login with Patreon" modal, so I'm guessing you're signing up for a subscription.

It allows the direct buy of games, complete or not.
Perverteer
I know about it, yes. But as I understand that website just allows you to subscribe to the Patreon pages of the respective developers for the moment. So there's still the link with Patreon to consider.
Perverteer
Thank you all! Your support means a lot to me.

You do what you gotta do. i'll still be here to support you. Cheers to the future of PERVERTEER. Best wishes for your upcoming tasks and updates. You rock.

Same as the others. Tftuv has one of the best storylines of all the games i have played. The soundtracks are already very good. Just hang on.

My heart breaks at all the trials the universe has thrown at you. I feel confident when I say "YOU GOT THIS!!" Most creators I only pledge when the have a release. (There are just way to many creators to pay for all the ones I like every month.) I have 90 AVN's in my AVN folder. But you are one of 3 that I always keep my pledge on. Just because I love your stories so much. In recent months, if a creator has a Substar account I follow them there instead. I have been distancing myself from patreon. I even deleted my creator account. So in closing I say, no matter where you decide to tell your stories, WE WILL FOLLOW!

I saw that OppaiMan has started a distribution platform for many of the games on Patreon after having a problem similar to yours. Have you looked at them?
Mr JC
Ouch. I feel very sorry for you, but roll with the punches and come out stronger. Hopefully there'll be more oppportunities.

I agree with others. Your art and storytelling are amazing and it has been a fun ride following you. I am one who likes to wait for a completed story and once episode 2 is close to finished I will start that and catch up. That being said if you were to jump ship I would follow as I NEED to see how it ends. Keep up the good work and keep your spirits high. You have many fans that support you and feel the same as I do!

It sounds like you’ve been on quite the rollercoaster, but remember that every great creator (not restricted to the avn industry) has faced challenges and setbacks. Your dedication to your project is clear, and it’s impressive how much you’ve accomplished so far. Don’t lose hope, sometimes a delay can lead to an even better opportunity that you hadn’t considered before. Your work is valuable, and there will be a way to share it with us supporters. Keep focusing on what you can control and take pride in your work. Your passion is the driving force that will see you through this. The community believes in you and is excited to see what you’ll create next. Hang in there!
