abandoned is the word on internet street.

yup, toe tag in November if nothing happens between now and then.

I really don't get this impulse of wanting devs to hand their projects off to a rando to finish? They won't make anything close to what the dev had in mind unless they either have the script, or worked closely with the dev and are intimately familiar with the project. Look at Bad Bobby Saga. It's spawned a million shitty spinoffs. The one decent one has been rebooted like 3 times and isn't really even the same game. Just let games die and new projects take their place.

You don't know what the dev had in mind because it's abandoned. It's better to see another's vision than get absolutely nothing.

No, I'd rather someone else make their own project than leech off another creator's foundation. We don't need another Bad Brother Saga/Big Brother clone epidemic.

atleast he has paused all the subscription and stuff, unlike assholes like SirDamned and ICSTOR

True, one of the few stand-up devs left. Though not looking good, what was planned to be a 2-week break is now in the 5th month. I'd rather see the gov't shut down for that long.

expect that around voting time...

As for my shared clip anyone else having this problem? Also, before you say try a different "Unpacking Method" I tried RAR 7z WinZip and the built in Extractor and the one on my Apple Laptop...

Assumptions:
1. You have an old 7-Zip or WinRAR. The latest version of 7-Zip is 26.02 (2026-06-25).
2. You have problems with your HDD/SDD - electronic errors, or bad sectors.

Could be simply full as well with no room left to finish unpacking it, which often treats it as a bad/corrupted drive error.

Also the download might have corrupted, so it just needs to be redownloaded.

Summer Heat

I'm feeling bullish in Two Sides of Love

I wish Raven Thunder would come back. I'm missing this game so much and I feel like the smol AVN scene is not the same without him

At the end of every month, he adds another month to vacation mode. In theory, it was supposed to be a three week break, and to make matters worse, he doesn't even say a word

I think the abandoned tag is coming in two months

Aye, most likely. Though at least this time he paused subs unlike the last 2 times he vanished for an extended amount of time.

I know that feeling. Once someone goes on vacation most dread coming back. In this case the longer it lasts the harder it is to get back into that daily rhythm. Maybe when AI replaces all human jobs and everyone gets a welfare check instead devs will go back to their AVNs out of complete boredom. Until then yeah this needs toe tagged next month in Oct.

with no development announcements the abandoned tag is coming on November 2nd 2026

posted march 1st, 2026: (7 full months of silence)
Raventhunder has decided to take a break from March 01, 2026 till November 01, 2026, but you can subscribe anyway.
Raventhunder has left this message for you:
Hey,

Starting in march, I'll be pausing donations until the new update is finished and posted.

This year didn't start well... I was already dealing with some personal issues and everything just piled on, it's affecting development too much, I've been dealing with burnout for a while, and forcing creative work hasn't been producing good results, the progress in february was better than Dec/Jan but wasn't enough to finish everything before march. After thinking about it a lot, I promised myself that if this keep happening, I would take a different approach instead of pushing through maybe making things worse.

Donations will remain paused throughout this month, and if necessary next month as well, until the update is completed and released. I'll spend two weeks away from home in a different place to reset and come back recharged. It's better to step away briefly and return with clarity than to keep rewriting scenes that don't feel right. Most devs go through dark periods like this at some point. This will pass.

I won't be receiving subscription support during this time, but the work will continue. The break will last two weeks, and production will resume in the third week after this short reset. As said before there is another daily job, so I don't rely solely on the game for a living, but of course the money will be greatly missed, still, this is for the best. The last time donations where paused for a month, it helped a lot to reduce the pressure and recharge my batteries. I love this game, and what matters most is that this story continues.

Thank you for your understanding, and thank you for all the support.
