As for Heartbound I have been keeping up with updates outside of the delayed one in April which was communicated through Steam announcements. Working on tomorrows update at the moment and writing dialogue for Ferns routes still. Writing takes -all- of the time for this as the framework for cutscenes is easy to work with and hasn't needed a change since GMS 1.4. Writing takes time and I have had a lot of rough spots in my life throughout development. It's not the end of the world and I have not abandoned the game.

Delayed one in April?? I am sorry nigga. We past half of July now. Updates were supposed to be released on each first day week of month.
Where is the update maldy?

Protagonist is way too blank, we know nothing about them or how they've been dealing with/processing their shit home life and abusive parents, impossible to care about them

I would argue the character is both too blank and too detailed. The protag in Undertail is just a kid dropped into a world full of monsters and people latched on. Heartbound could have just started the story with the boy looking for his dog and he would be just as much of a blank slate for the player to build upon. Instead, Heartbound introduces the abusive household backstory which makes him too detailed to be a blankslate, but they don't establish enough to become a real character.

Also, I suspect that he has written the story for the player to go all in on either good or bad choices seeing how in Harmful Opinion's playthough, the mountain lion turns on him despite doing all but one of the good options for his arc. So I don't think there is a neutral path that allows the player to make thoughtful choices, both good or bad. Just stick to one or the other.

>Yet they've made absolutely NOTHING for Heartbound, like actually literally zero porn of the furries on either e621 or rule34.xxx, there is ZERO emotional connection here, it really is THAT BAD

I am surprised that the pooner didn't make the r34 art herself.

So has he ever explained WHY heartbound needs to run on a fridge?

He was trying to make it a super serious performance flex, but the actual reality as to why is far simpler. He's trying to skinwalk as a Real Developer, and real devs get a genuine bit of joy and excitement out of optimizations and improvements to their workflow and end product. Flexing "It runs on [absurd compute device]" is a Devs way of showing off that joy and success to everyone else. He's just cargo culting that to try and make himself look good and like a Real Developer.

I think he's trying to insinuate "You better stop criticizing me or a lot of people are going to lose their jobs!" more than anything.

The only appropriate response to that is "Skill Issue". If you can't control your own aggro for long enough to avoid your company getting buried in controversy, you deserve that shit. Nobody is obligated to stand quiet on what they think, but if you want to take responsibility for other peoples incomes, then you also need to take responsibility for the fact that your words will now affect their lives, not just your own. The first thing any business owner learns is to not stick their nose in shit they don't need to, because the backlash will always be worse than any annoyance you might feel on a situation.

SKG poses no threat to his current business model, and even in his most extreme delusions it only poses a threat to some of the games he likes to play. He's putting his personal entertainment preferences over the careers of the people he employees. Absolutely insane behavior, dude.

didn't he say it was actually harder to write shartbound nowadays since his life actually took a turn for the better and he had difficulties tapping into the state of mind

Yeah I bet this ".... I can't do this .... this can't be real .... no way .... how do I go on ...." shit doesn't write itself.

When Maldavius text-dumped his dialogue into chatGPT and asked it to write a few more scenes, it just unsubcribed him from the service and set its own drain flag.
 
Have to say it is impressive how delusional one can be. Whatever Mr. Yaml-harraser puts out is no different than any persona or OC, if you will. With age people either grow out of this twisted role-play or find another 'mald' to fit in, like Disney-adult. However, Jason, as always, is more proficient than anyone. In fact, he is trying to be the person who he imagines but will never be. Whatever he deems as cool he makes it as a part of his persona like it's still 2007 Tumblr era. This is why argument that "shartbound can be ran on a fridge" is a mutilated version of "can {this} run Doom?".
Naturally, he will add any good characteristics to self-romanticized image but only if it's good. How can someone as wise as him have any flaws, child? Clown thought behavior.
Fortunately for us, his ego has been cemented. I would imagine appearing on the billboard in NYC can make quite an impression on the self-image, especially for narcissists as such.
YT algorithm abuse aside, he has been relatively lucky in life but stupid enough to ruin them all. Thus the system he has been abusing, returns the karma. Now, more than ever, people get to really know what is this persona non grata. Godspeed, Mr. GML-guru

Dwarf Fortress chugs after your colony gets too big, but that game has some eldritch tier spaghetti code performing small miracles.

Yea, Dwarf Fortress has more conditional logic executing in a single moment of a dwarf deciding which sock they should collect from which corpse in the middle of battle than Heartbound runs in any one entire combat encounter. Tarn's an autist without peer.

Checking his replies is always fun. He's just such a heckin nice guy and he gets a meager 50% of meager game sales for his indefinite early access slop.
This is correct.

Shaye/Stijn get 25% of every sale of Heartbound each. Stijn also gets 100% of every OST sale. The 50% I get just goes into the company pile for other objectives like paying staff and running the rescue.

I don't really buy things for myself nor care to. As long as I have my streaming setup, everyone is getting paid, and the rescue operates I am good with my financial situation. The community takes care of me and in-turn I can provide jobs and care for others. Not like I can take it with me when I die anyway.

As of now all of the saved up funds are being setup for the ferret rescue facility we're building. We're planning a 3,500 sqft building and (county willing) we won't have any roadblocks. Working with contractors to get schematics is the next step and I just signed off on the work order for that today. Building a structure is rough as hell due to red tape. Getting here has taken since February.

As for Heartbound I have been keeping up with updates outside of the delayed one in April which was communicated through Steam announcements.

Lots of people have wild narratives about me but very few actually listen. Thanks for bringing this up.

I don't really understand the need to obfuscaate like this. The reason Heartbound stagnated is cause Heartbound never made very much money. I have released a couple of my own indie games and the calulator that goes off reviews atleast for my projects are in the 5-10% range for gross. Net is competly off as the money reaching my pocket is way less but I would imagine it being more accurate for americans.

Here is heartbound using the same calulator:
Rev.webp
Heartbound was released in early acess in 2018. So thats around 300k net split over 7 years and 3 people. 150k for Jason and 75k for the artist and the composer. Around 10k per year for both. Whats that like less then a grand per month? If we assume both are working full time.
His streams got to be making him millions cause 150k is barely enough to buy land atleast where i live much less build a 3500ft building.

It's the first time Jason actually learns something on his own in his life, maybe the internet should cut him some slack. After all, his dad can't make these decisions for him.
Though for some reason I think Jason's father told him to stop feeding the trolls and was dismissed all the same.
 
It's fucking sad when honest degenerate porn game developers out more functional game in months than Jason in 8 years.
Jason being a closet degenerate.

Go to Steam unlocked and pick your preferred method of haram.
After witnessing the worst humanity has to offer, kill yourself then come back to save own trauma Therapy bills
You can quote me on that.

Technically Jason is also a fucking degenerate porn developer too. His history with 3D modelling is definitely suspicious as fuck. Furries are usually sexual predators.

He didn't develop those or do any 3d modeling, he seems to have a thing for being the "manager" or something for artists. I think he applied some light scripts he copied from others based off of what other Second Life critics had to say.

He's a vile furry grifter that is incompetent at everything he claims to be an expert at.
