Honestly speaking, I feel like the plot of Kartoba may have more potential than Ashwood's (albeit I love the potential for incest in Ashwood and the models). It's a shame the incest was lost but since this doesn't contain smols I don't care a lot anyways. I do enjoy something more 'vanilla' from...
A dev not showing up for a game they promised is no reason to think they are not alive. Devs are constantly abandoning game projects, specially in this community.
I don't think Dark Games will become more eager to work on the game or release it by seeing people posting screenshots of the last time they visited the board.

KnS 1 and 2 may have adult scenes as just a side service in it. I don't think all those lewd scenes were necessary, some sexual encounters could have been implied rather than shown directly, but I can't spoil you. KnS 3 has 'adult scenes' intermixed with the plot. They are not as explicit...
If you're looking for an interesting plot, I can recommend you some non-smol visual novels. Wild Cats is my favorite so far. Eternum is pretty much "And then they all fucked" in a sense, but the porn is almost secondary to the plot and I really enjoy replaying it. I like Caribdis's sense of...
I don't think he was exactly a good storyteller. Personally, I didn't like the intricacies of SSP family dynamics. A lot of it is just power fantasy for smol-lovers, no grittiness, no depth, only either this whole cast of girls already wants to fuck you or they do anyways but they haven't realized.
I wouldn't agree he was lying. Ketzal's style is very particular. If all DAZ VNs looked as remotely as good as EGBE or as SSP I would not even consider playing a VN with graphics made with HS2 or VAM. However, even if DG did buy the assets and the story it is quite likely that they just...
