es slow down my connection (3.7GB = ~1 hour).

Wow since it is a abandoned project it is nice that you are willing to share the pictures. Maybe password protect the file and not use the dev's name for the file and share it in this thread or a magnet link torrent. A lot of people would love to see these pictures.

I mean he didn't abandon it easily, dude went as far as moving to another country to work on his games, the problem is that, he was having troubles with SS, a lot of people couldn't sub to him because their cards kept getting declined, and on top of that every time he found a new platform for him to monetize the games he kept getting banned. Then he loses his discord and the only platform where he is still able to monetize the game shadowbans him. People are saying that he should've moved to unifans. Yea he could've done that, but if you look at their rules they also don't allow loli content and there are devs and artists that have been banned from there.
So even if he did that it would just be a matter of time until he got banned again.
I don't think you guys are taking into consideration how mentally taxing that must be. It was not an easy decision for him. This was his ONLY source of income. So now he had to abandon the games he loved and is out of a job.
Now he has 2 options he can either quit game making altogether or he can try to create a more vanilla game and move to a platform that is more user friendly like patreon. Without loli content I think he would thrive there. Hopefully he does that.

I see. I didn't know the whole lore. Well it's a pity

He sent a report for mirrors, and I added those mirrors ot the OP. I deleted the post because it was redundant and no longer needed.

I sent a report so that mods can link it in the OP as well as add a few more mirrors just in case other links die.

If its fine with you, that it looks like he is taking credit for YOUR original upload, its fine with me too. Case closed. Moving on
Like i said, i would have done it a bit differently as a MoD/Uploader

I'm not taking credit for shit. I was asked to add the links to the OP, I added the links to the OP. I had no intention of taking any credit. I was doing what I asked.

Is this really going to be a problem?

Patreon made a shit ton of money off taboo games and indeed they did capitulate to payment processors.

Funny enough the site TOS forbid certain content but they turned a blind eye for profit.

Lesson here money rules and those with more money have control over you.

Yea there are still a shitton of games with incest there, some of them with a LOT of support. But since they use patches and those patches aren't on their platform they don't really care, unless there are a lot of reports.

you can unwrap the game images too.
the **.RPA files are compressed files like a zip or rar

Simple this wasn't the first time he was targeted and eventually it's just not worth it. That is the sad reality.

Read his post on the forum he has to eat and can't make free games after being banned from most pay sites and payment processors.

I wanted to but it's deleted, since he deleted his account, so I wasn't caught up on the whole thing

 

[tooka]

for real... EGBE and SSP were so high quality and well done, truly a labor of love. Idk why did he abandoned it so easly after puting so much effort in it.
Not gonna lie, this whole thing upset me greatly.

he didn't abandon it easily he has been dealing with issues like this for a while like patreon or subscribestar taking down his accounts or sending him warnings he didn't want to abandon EGBE or SSP because SSP was like his baby and he had so many plans for it

 

[BadJM]

I really liked EGBE but for me losing SSP has hit me the hardest. I have been following the game since it was first posted on cuck95, I really enjoyed the story and the characters. Seeing it die like this after so much work put into it, is just so sad. I really wish Ket could work on it even just as a side project while working on another game. Even if it only got 1 update per year. I think a lot of us would've been happy. But realistically, in his position I probably wouldn't want to do that. If he decides to create another game, even though his community is very loyal, there will still be a good number of them that will not be interested in his new work because it doesn't have lolis. He won't start from 0 but he will have to grind a lot to get his sub numbers to what they were. So I just don't see him taking the risk and being involved with this type of content and potentially losing it all again.

Could do it under 2 completely different dev names/details (just give it to a different person to upload). I mean historically pen names were used to publicly detach an author when they didn't want credit for their writings for various reasons. Let the new public project subsidize SSP, that seemingly is getting made and released for free as far as the public is concerned.

Let's wait and see what happens. He said that he still wants to make games but until he actually releases something we won't know if he really means it.

 

[GoonerAlien]

RiP to a great dev that wasn't afraid to hit kinks that many people wouldn't touch, hopefully Seath isn't next.
Oh well, you live long enough to be a hero, or you see yourself into somebody you don't even recognize.

 

[LewisCarroll]

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. If it sounds too good to be true then it is. Although that would be great but logic tells me Ketzal's more worried about how to pay for next months rent and food rather than finishing a game at his own expense Just the electric bill for the rendering alone likely adds $100/mo to it, aside from thousands of hours in front of the PC as well as paying his help like Pietro (his animator). It sounds like a game of telephone gone bad already. He said he'd be back at some point, but he didn't say to finish SSP (for free = lol).

It seemed lagit from the screen cap before it went down, but yeah probably. Don't know about the power prices where he's at, but from all the gaming, animating and rendering I'm doing on three systems at once, I barely hit $40-$60 extra a month. I hope you're wrong though. Heck, SSP was really dragging on tbh. I'd even be happy with a flow chart of the rest of the script just to satisfy my curiosity on how it was to be resolved lol.

 

[murra2]

honestly? I would pay for a course made by Ketzal, both to remain anonymous, jsut to make a good videogame.
