There have been no real updates about anywhere for months. Seems like the dev gave up after the last ban wave and just strung their supporters along as long as possible.

yeah prob another abandoned one despite having 350+ subs, no update in 17 months. Oh well, I forgot this existed anyway until I saw the last reply. And it's as you said, went from weekly progress updates last year to nothing but the render of the month like a bunch of devs. Fools and their money... The few honest ones simply pause subs when there's not going to be an actual update for years on end (or likely ever) but I guess some (most?) can't resist scamming people.

The last progress update was months ago claiming they were just in proof reading/translation. Unfortunately the dev freaked out because of the setting being "problematic" and they wanted a full rewrite since the itchio blacklist made them lose it. When they realized people hated that idea they went quiet and strung people along. They already changed the little sister model at that point because they claimed animations were difficult to make. The entire situation reeks and it has for awhile.

Yeah if they actually plan on letting platforms dictate what they can make and not what people actually want might as well forget being an AVN dev if money is that important to them, as the vanilla porn still allowed is already free and plentiful everywhere with VPNs so it's stupid to pay for it if it brings nothing new or even rare to the table when 50,000 other vanilla porn cartoons already exist for free. Hell even old shit like Dating My Daughter or One Summer In Loliwood is better than most of the newer slop getting cranked out and those were even completed. This is why the few devs with a shred of artistic (and other) integrity left are just going back to making their own damned sites with crypto tip jars like used to be done before the platforms ruined it (still waiting on BHG's site).
