discussion Abandoned VN Ren'Py DAZ Lost & Bound [0.4 Public] [Twisted Moon Games]

[Draevis]

I think I had last played on version 0.3 and then lost track of this game. I'm glad to see 0.4 and hope to see more in the future.

Dev is MIA so who knows (no posts at all since Sept when normally it's weekly). It's not looking good considering his other on-hold/probably-abandoned AVN AITA was based on him.

Does anyone have link to android port? The one in OP is not working.

It seems like all contact with the dev was lost right after version 0.4 came out in July 2025 but Dev was last seen on here Feb 2 2026.

I wish @TwistedMoony would let us know what's going on.

Yeah it's unfortunate. This game had so much potential.

Dev reported elsewhere:

Due to legal reasons discontinued.

 

[GettinOlder]

Yep, another one bites the dust. Damned shame that VNs are dropping like flies. Updates come almost yearly now, if that. It seems
this is becoming a trend now.

Ditto on the Android port if anyone has a working link. Joiplay is busted for me all of a sudden for some reason.

Weird, I thought lolis were legal in Germany, unless something changed. The whole EU is pretty much going to shit in slow motion (France outlawed them in 2022) so who knows. I was an update behind on this one but I guess I won't even bother now since it's not going to get finished and I don't even wanna know if it ends on a cliffhanger or not as usually happens. I guess AITA is trashed as well and sadly that was the one I was waiting for. Kinda would have been nice to post what was going on on SS instead of 8+ months of radio silence, esp when people are still subbed to him even now.

You should definitely not check out the latest update now that it's cancelled, as it's peak and a damn shame it won't be continued

Apparently, the chapter-by-chapter distribution model that was popular in subscription magazines is about to come to an end.

 

[falafal]

Well... shit. That blows. Really liked this one.

 

[hawaii]

It was clear to me from the beginning that the developer would abandon the game! They've lost all backbone.

 

[BadJM]

Does anyone know the reason? Or he didn't want to elaborate?

 

[lillo]

Noooo! TT_TT

Hopefully it's just a temporary thing, too sad for this one to end like this...

 

[KaySwitchPrime]

He past along a message in his discord via someone else, didn't go into much detail, but it sounded bad

Another recognizable dev posted on his Discord with the following message:

This is a post from his side: In short, the Hiatus had nothing to do with my mental health, other reason were in play. I don't own a PC anymore, need to safe up money to get back to rendering and downloading assets to work on things again. But I can never work on previous stuff anymore, or I am gone longer than 8 months.

If someone wants to pass that message to elsewhere I would appreciate that.

I advise everyone to gtfo asap. Also from that other place.

Once I have a PC again, I will only work on commissions and casual rendering. Also for the tiers I have on here. No more Ren'py stuff.

You will be able to contact me on here, at moe and once I have the Discord figured out again on there.

Stay good,

Or not...

Moon is based in Germany (I thought he was Russian) and we know that Killer7 had their computers and drives seized, and the German government won't return them but have not arrested him for a crime either. They went after K7 for a nude thumbnail for a base character in Daz (the ones that have no genitalia by default) but have not arrested K7, but it seems like Moon may not have been as lucky. Non-realistic images and videos are supposed to be legal in Germany, but that does not seem to stop the police and prosecutors from harassing Daz creators.

Yup, aside from tech upgrades sounds like they haven't actually changed much from when Hitler was in power. Actually kinda worse, because now you don't even need to be a Jew.

Based on what was said on another site by moony, it sounds like their stuff got yoinked, also like the PC etc., and are using something borrowed to chat places.
