discussion Ren'Py DAZ Unnatural Instinct [0.8.5] [Merizmare]

Such good renders and so far the story has been pretty fun.

Just saw he was banned on Boosty though. I hope this game will continue.

 

[BadJM]

Well... if he is banned on boosty then it's game over. He doesn't have any other platform for people to support his game.

 

[GAD93]

I hope the developer finds a solution, we only saw a connection with his younger sister, I will wait and hope

 

[lewdcorner1]

Younger sister does not act as an 18-year old. More like a 10-year old.

I just noticed the prints on the wall of the ice cream shop. Whoa!

The developer is banned from Boosty. On the largest Russian-language website dedicated to such games, in mid-December, the developer announced that he no longer intends to try to monetize this project, but intends to continue doing it as a hobby in his spare time. It's a pity, of course, that the project has actually moved to On-Hold status, but at least it cannot be said that it has been abandoned. Although it is obvious that updates, if they appear, will be released at very long intervals. After all, after the main job, you always want to relax, relax, drink a beer, watch a TV series, and not work a second time.

Like you said, at least it's not game over...and if dev is not worrying about some content getting him demonetized, then he can fully explore whatever path he wants

This game is pretty much the reason I started playing visual novels. I used to dislike this genre for a long time, but after seeing one of its promotional images or videos, I decided to give them a try. To me, this game is absolutely perfect, and I really hope to see more updates. Plus, people online say it was banned because of the loli content, but I’ve seen plenty of other loli games released on F95... yet this one got hit with a ban. It’s really strange and unfair.

Sorry to say, but that "F95 ban" is bullshit. The game is still available there.
There were other reasons why this game got somehow abandoned from the developer. Mostly because he lost the ability to gain money with it (there is a post about that from him on F95)

Have there been any updates from the dev since december?

What was even bannable about the game that the dev couldn't just have changed (patched later)? Did boosty not even give a warning or message?

His accound got banned because....drum rolls...it had porn/erotic content in it!

Here a part of the orig. post from the "other site" end 2025:

I really hope Merizmare comes back to finish this

 

[Pasker]

Haven't followed this game in while, but I remember it was quite nice and the models were great. Sad to see the dev is struggling with monetizing it, hope he finds a way and come back.

 

[gerard2026]

Shame developer was shut down.
But yeah, lots of ANTI-PORN activists around these days so I wouldn't be surprised if someone saw the game and decided to file a lengthy complaint, and well, that's all it takes these days. We are quickly heading into a society where holding hands will be considered illegal with the way things are going! lol

The largest Russian-language website with similar games has moved this project to the archive, where abandoned projects are preserved. As I understand it, this was done after correspondence with the developer. Thus, unfortunately, this VN is abandoned.

Okay thats super sad to hear. So there is no way he can work/monetize this project otherwise?

There are no problems with posting your content on Western sites (Patreon, etc.). The main problem is the inability to withdraw money. To apply for a Visa or Mastercard, you need to fly to another country. Chinese Union Pay, which works well in Asia (Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, the Middle East), Latin America and Africa, are not recognized by Western sites. A consequence of the Cold War between China and the West. So the situation is really hopeless. It makes no sense to post the game on domestic Russian resources - it was originally aimed at a Western audience.
