I loved the writing. A great mix of batty, serious, realistic, and crazy. I especially wanted more about Carla's mom's cult, and how she had used it to brainwash her daughters to believe something so obvious and easy to embrace without any mythology behind it. But the mythology was great, and gave the characters so much depth. Then the redhead with her childhood crush, and her intense older sister who needed a dominant man so badly. The story is killer.

Well that mythology seems to true. As mc's dad was about tell him about a secret about their family and also during the spar with jade his eyes were glowing as far I remember.
Wishing on a star RNGR comes back rn

I feal like RNGR was building a real story at the same time as getting right to the point with the bleaching and for some maybe it was to fast but I think it was a great mix.
Honestly, the story was unique enough and engaging enough that it's honestly irritating that it got dropped, not for the fact that we don't get more of it, but more for the same reason you get annoyed at someone in the middle of winning a race that stops before the finish line and quits. You were about to win! Why did you stop!
Like, the metrics on their patreon were great, they were the only game in town for this kind of content, and even then the content itself was really enjoyable, and then boom, vanish.
It's part of why I think people are willing to believe the 'literally conscripted to ukraine war' with little to no evidence, because dropping something with the potential to be lucrative like this was shaping up to be without any news is just insane, from most's perspective.
I saw someone earlier in the thread say it was 'letting the goose that laid the golden egg rot away' and my god is that accurate.
Very clearly missed opportunity here, hopefully someone capable of making shit sees this game and the response, and gets the bright idea to try and steal the audience and make some cash, if only to start inspiring people to make more of this stuff. Because there IS an audience for it, and they are NOT being catered to in damn near anything else.
This entire fetish is literally free real estate, game devs. This was the *ONLY* game catering to it, and it's basically dead. It's a niche that YOU could fill and reap the rewards from doing so.

Just found out about this game, can't believe it's abandoned.
What a tragedy...
What a tragedy...
Would be awesome if someone could make a game like this one or continue the legacy. I think the request for such a game would go nuts.

the worst part is the fact the likelihood of something similar with this quality coming up again is close to zero

funny thing is that out of curiosity I once asked if anyone was intersted to form a small team and fanmake a similar game, but I didnt get many responces of interest. but this was indeed a rare game.
Only normal. Most people will want to consume the content they like, but would rather not be invested in making it themselves. So, I don't really see that as shocking lol

the despite the fact that the interracial tag is saturated with black-on-white NTR(classic but decent white MC, cucked constantly by a whole town of stereotyped black people, just because they've a bigger dick and nothing else)
In case anyone is curious, as far as we know, because RNGR is russian, people on the discord server speculated that he (the dev) got drafted for the army, and MAYBE got k.i.a., as the timeframe from when he stopped giving updates matches with when the Russian-Ukraine conflict was at it's "peak". But in reality, all that is being said, is merely speculation, as there is no way of knowing really what happened, and we probably never will, unless the person in question comes back and explain everything. And on top of this, afaik, porn is illegal on Russia, so he might have been arrested.

Well, IIRC consuming pornography there isn't illegal; creating and distributing it, though, is. Contradictory, obviously, but w/e.
I completely forgot about that. Although it's ironic that some of the grossest and most disturbing porn in the past 20 or so years has come out of Russia. The anti-porn laws are only enforced when those making it don't grease the wheels, and that's a good chunk of change that RNGR wouldn't have. So if he gets caught it's like a 2 to 6 year sentence. Or probably getting sent to the front lines of Ukraine.
It's always hard finding people to make a team. Especially for niche topics like raceplay and bleaching. I have experience with this. Whenever I do find a group, it's pretty rare for it to last until a demo is released. Always one person ends up ghosting, and then the rest slowly follow or just outright quit. Only thing I can offer is helping with writing.

none of that is confirmed, also i am pretty sure that him being russian isn't also 100% confirmed but i might be wrong with that

well, I could help with renders and I already had an idea about a story, ( not a very original like this though). the [problem would be with coding and animations. basically animations is the reason I plan on moving to blender for the vn I and a friend are making. but as you can surmise, it is a long process. especially for me poor brain.

If I ever had the skill and knowledge and tirm maybe but I haven't the first clue how to make such a game and I struggle to learn new things at my age and with ADHD I wouldn't be helpful but I think there are more people interested in playing but not as many people with the skill to help maybe

yeah understandable. coding is high science at the moment for me. I have a small grasp on it, but my priority is in rendering and learning blender ( which has its own set of problems, not gonna lie). at least I have the coder for the game, and I have some experience in rendering, posing, dforce and bit of photoshop. and writting was never a problem. I get what you mean about people mostly wanting to play instead of making a game. it aint an easy job if you are on your own.
